17.06.2025 โ‡ข The Day Trump Threatened Iran's Leader
โŒจTrump abruptly left the G7 summit in Canada early morning, citing the escalating Israel-Iran conflict, and issued warnings for Tehran's 9.5 million residents to evacuate immediately. By afternoon, his rhetoric escalated dramatically as he claimed the US had "complete and total control" of Iranian airspace and demanded Iran's "unconditional surrender."

The confrontation peaked when Trump revealed the US knew where Supreme Leader Khamenei was hiding but wouldn't kill him "for now," creating divisions within his MAGA base. Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene urged restraint, while Trump dismissed Carlson as "kooky." Congressional lawmakers from both parties moved to limit his war powers through resolutions.

Domestically, ICE raids intensified with the arrest of NYC mayoral candidate Brad Lander at immigration court, while a federal judge ruled Trump's NIH grant cancellations "void and illegal." The day ended with Trump meeting his national security team in the Situation Room as Israeli forces claimed killing Iran's top military commander.
