Gen-Z Democrat Operative Visits Iran, Joins "Death To America" Chant
Submitted by Jason Curtis Anderson of One City Rising,
Meet Calla Walsh.
She got her start organizing for Senator Ed Markey while still a teenager. The perfect profile: earnest, idealistic, a model Gen Z Democrat. But like so many others on the far left, that idealism mutated into something darker—something that most of the Democratic Party still refuses to reckon with.
After her stint with Markey, Walsh joined the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), a group that openly supports abolishing capitalism, borders, police, private property—and, of course, Israel. In case you haven't been following domestic extremism, the DSA also formally adopted ANTIFA into its political framework back in 2019. That's right—the group known for smashing windows, firebombing courthouses, and beating journalists is now a pillar of the left's fastest-growing political organization.
But for Walsh, the DSA wasn't revolutionar...

US Strikes Destroyed Only One Of Three Iranian Nuclear Sites: Intel Assessment (ZeroHedge)

US Strikes Destroyed Only One Of Three Iranian Nuclear Sites: Intel Assessment
The intelligence-gathering saga and (highly politicized) efforts to ascertain just how much of Iran's nuclear program was truly destroyed during the US attacks on Iran called "Midnight Hammer" on June 22 continues. And now NBC is reporting that it was likely much less damage inflicted on two among the three facilities than previously thought.
"One of the three nuclear enrichment sites in Iran struck by the United States last month was mostly destroyed, setting work there back significantly," the Thursday report says. "But the two others were not as badly damaged and may have been degraded only to a point where nuclear enrichment could resume in the next several months if Iran wants it to, according to a recent U.S. assessment of the destruction caused by the military operation, five current and former U.S. officials familiar with the assessment told NBC News."
One of Iran's nuclear si...

Hegseth Readies Presser For "Dignity of Great American Pilots" As FBI Probes Iran Strike Intel Leak
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says the FBI is probing the leak of an intelligence assessment indicating that the U.S. weekend strikes on three Iranian sites only delayed the country's nuclear program by months rather than completely destroying it.
“We're doing a leak investigation with the FBI right now because this information is for internal purposes, battle-damage assessments,” Hegseth said at the NATO summit in the Netherlands on June 25.
“And CNN and others are trying to spin it to make the president look bad when this was an overwhelming success.”
President Trump is furious:
Secretary of Defense (War!) Pete Hegseth, together with Military Representatives, will be holding a Major News Conference tomorrow morning at 8 A.M. EST at The Pentagon, in order to fight for the Dignity of our Great American Pilots.
These Patriots were very upset!
After 36 hours of dangerously f...

Trump Pushes Back On Pentagon Intel, Insists Iran Nuclear Sites 'Destroyed'
There are two apt sayings for this current situation facing the White House in the wake of the Trump-ordered bombings against Iran's nuclear facilities. First, what's worse in war-time decision-making than doing the wrong thing? Doing it incompletely. Second, it is always easy to begin a war, but very difficult to stop one.
And so here President Trump and his top officials find themselves, defending the 'limited' strikes and proclaiming the destruction of Iran's nuclear program and enrichment capability in the face of a skeptical media. The escalation dialectic - which the mainstream media is so good at - begins...
The heat is on an the NATO summit in The Hague, where Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters, "Of course we're doing a leak investigation with the FBI right now because this information is for internal purposes, battle damage assessments."

White House Press Secretary Hints At Iran Regime Change, Claims Intel Said ′Weeks′ From Nuclear Bomb (ZeroHedge)

White House Press Secretary Hints At Iran Regime Change, Claims Intel Said 'Weeks' From Nuclear Bomb
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt has said in a fresh interview that the US administration is 'confident' that Saturday's bombings of three key Iranian nuclear sites accomplished the job of dismantling Tehran's alleged nuclear ambitions. She also said Trump made the decision "based on his own instincts and the US intelligence that he saw."
"This strike on Saturday did make our homeland safer because it took away Iran's ability to create a nuclear bomb. This is a regime that threatens 'death to America,' and 'death to Israel, and they no longer have the capability to build this nuclear weapon and threaten the world," she told ABC News on Monday morning while making media rounds.
At a moment White House officials have been trying to downplay that this is a conflict of regime change in Iran, Leavitt did say the US is seeking to "Take away the powe...

Trump Says US Intel Assessment Of Iran's Nuclear Program "Was Wrong", Tulsi Responds
Authored by Jacob Burg via The Epoch Times,
President Donald Trump said on June 20 that his director of national intelligence's assessment in March that Iran had yet to decide on building a nuclear weapon was wrong.
Trump made the remarks to reporters on Friday while standing next to Air Force One at the Morristown Municipal Airport in New Jersey.
The president was asked about the U.S. intelligence community's assessment that it had no evidence that Iran was building a nuclear warhead before Israel's strikes on its military and nuclear sites last week.
“Well, then my intelligence community is wrong,” Trump said. “Who in the intelligence community said that?”
When he was told that it was his director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, who gave those remarks to lawmakers in March, Trump replied, “She was wrong.”
After Trump's comments, Gabbard took to social media to share a clip...

US Intel: Iran Likely To Pursue Nukes If US Joins Israel's War - Trump Worried About 'Libya Scenario'
Reiterating a long-running US intelligence community consensus that Iran has not been building a nuclear bomb, US intelligence officials are warning that an American entry into Israel's war would likely incentivize Iran to pursue becoming a nuclear-weapon state after all. Meanwhile, insiders say President Trump is wary of turning Iran into "another Libya" if Israel's regime-change ambitions are somehow realized.
In other major developments:
President Trump on Thursday issued a statement seemingly granting more time for a diplomatic solution: "Considering there's a significant likelihood of negotiations that may or may not happen with Iran soon, I will determine whether or not to engage in the next two weeks."
The Pentagon's Defense Threat Reduction Agency has advised top officials that America's formidable 30,000-pound bunker-buster bombs may be insufficie...

Trump Signals He′ll Hold Off Iran Strike, SoftBank′s $1T US AI Hub Pitch | Bloomberg The Pulse 06/20 (Bloomberg)

President Donald Trump will decide within two weeks whether to strike Iran, his spokeswoman said, as Israel hit more Iranian nuclear sites and warned its attacks may bring down the leadership in Tehran. “Based on the fact that there's a substantial chance of negotiations that may or may not take place with Iran in the near future, I will make my decision whether or not to go within the next two weeks,” Trump said in a dictated message, according to the White House. In corporate news, SoftBank Group founder Masayoshi Son is seeking to team up with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. to realize what could be his biggest bet yet — a trillion-dollar industrial complex in Arizona to build robots and artificial intelligence.

Trump Swipes At Tulsi On Iran Nuke Contradictory Intel: 'I Don't Care What She Said'
President Trump while on his way back from the G7 summit in Canada, which he cut short due to the Middle East situation, said to reporters aboard Air Force One Tuesday morning that he wants "a real end" to Iran's nuclear problem. He expressed his assumption that Iran is "very close" to having nuclear weapons.
He asserted this means nothing less than Tehran "giving up entirely" its enrichment activities. "I didn't say I was looking for a ceasefire," he said. This was in follow-up to a scathing message he wrote on Truth Social, saying that French President Emmanuel Macron had "mistakenly said that I left the G7 Summit, in Canada, to go back to D.C. to work on a 'cease fire' between Israel and Iran. Wrong! He has no idea why I am now on my way to Washington, but it certainly has nothing to do with a Cease Fire. Much bigger than that."
