Trump's mind-boggling gaffe attacks 'Islamic Republic of Japan'
President Donald Trump made a remarkable gaffe Wednesday when trying to name the Islamic Republic of Iran, melding the Middle East country’s name with that of another country far-divorced from the conflict.Trump was meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy Wednesday in Turkey for the NATO summit, and moments after insulting Zelenskyy directly to his face – an insult that was met with a cold stare – Trump recalled recent attacks he claimed were thwarted by the United States, attacks that presumably came from Iran.“I told this story yesterday: we had 111 missiles shot by the Islamic Republic of Japan,” Trump said, an almost-certain attempt to reference the Islamic Republic of Iran. “They were shot at the aircraft carrier!”Trump: We had 11 missiles shot by the Islamic Republic of Japan pic.twitter.com/FUOFLVZiKh— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 8, 2026

Israel First CRASHES OUT After Pro Palestine Democrats Win Big
Donald Trump abruptly canceled a signing ceremony for a bipartisan housing bill, dismissing it as being of “minor importance” as attention shifts to what some are calling a judgment day moment for his Iran policy. Meanwhile, Dan Goldman is drawing criticism after warning that a victory by Brad Lander would signal the Democratic Party’s embrace of antisemitism, while internal documents reportedly show Trump’s so-called “Board of Peace” moving to undermine Palestinian self-determination. Elsewhere, The Daily Wire is reportedly seeking strategic investors amid financial struggles, the Trump administration has installed fencing and cameras around the reflecting pool project, and a U.S. operation targeting an alleged drug-smuggling vessel in the eastern Pacific left two people dead and six survivors rescued.
