Trump pulls rug from underneath Iran with surprise change to tentative peace deal

President Donald Trump faced a wave of scrutiny for agreeing to lift sanctions on Iran and unfreeze Iranian funds as part of the tentative peace deal between Washington and Tehran, but on Tuesday, the president announced a new detail regarding the agreement, one that could risk jeopardizing peace talks going forward.“The Money and/or Sanctions that the U.S. Treasury is releasing goes into escrow, controlled by the U.S.A., and will be used for the purchase of food and medical supplies, exclusively from the United States, including Corn, Wheat, and Soybeans from our great American Farmers,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social. “These are things that are desperately needed by Iran. This is a humanitarian crisis, and I feel it is necessary to help, NOW, before it is too late. Talks are going well!”There is no mention in the 14-point memorandum of understanding of unfrozen Iranian funds or sanction relief being controlled by the United States. On the contrary, point 11 states that the United States would “make fully available for use the frozen or restricted funds and assets of the Islamic Republic of Iran upon the implementation of this MOU.”

Brain Dead President Claims To Have Spoken With Dead President

On Wednesday, Trump spoke at the brand-new Teddy Roosevelt Presidential Library. While he was rambling and struggling to stay upright, Trump made a wild claim of speaking with Roosevelt: I even had a conversation with Theodore Roosevelt,” Trump said. “I said, ‘What did you think about the Panama Canal? Do you consider that your greatest achievement? How do you feel about the fact that the Democrats gave the Panama Canal away to Panama for 1?’ Now, I know what you're thinking. That this was the clearest example yet of Donny's dementia. Well, maybe, but if it is, it's not the way you think it is. Trump really did have a conversation with Teddy Roosevelt. Obviously, it was not the real Teddy Roosevelt, who had died over a hundred years ago.
