US President Donald Trump publicly attacked several conservative commentators who have criticized his administration's policy towards Iran. In posts on his Truth Social platform, Trump labeled these critics as 'fools' and 'stupid people,' questioning their intelligence and motives.
Trump defended his approach by highlighting positive economic indicators, such as a record high stock market and falling oil prices, suggesting his policies were effective. He specifically named Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones, accusing them of having 'Low IQs' and implying they supported Iran's nuclear ambitions. He also suggested they were seeking attention and were not true MAGA supporters.
Some of the targeted individuals responded to Trump's remarks. Candace Owens, for instance, posted on X, suggesting it might be time to 'put Grandpa up in a home.' Trump also referenced legal and financial troubles faced by some of his critics, including lawsuits against Owens and bankruptcy proceedings for Alex Jones.
President Trump signed an accord with Iran on Wednesday, with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian also signing the agreement. French President Emmanuel Macron hosted the signing ceremony at the Palace of Versailles. Oil prices tumbled following the announcement of the deal.
