Pakistani Reporter Schooled on Kashmir as US Says Trump Respects India's Right to Decide Its Future
A Pakistani journalist tried to corner US State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce by questioning whether President Trump needs Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'permission' to bring peace to South Asia by resolving the Kashmir issue. The response was swift and sharp. Bruce reiterated the United States' long-standing position of respecting a sovereign nation's right to decide its own future, clearly stating that President Trump supports countries like India making their own decisions—without third-party interference. The journalist's attempt to revive the old mediation narrative fell flat, echoing India's firm stance on no third-party mediation. Watch this clip as the U.S. once again backs India's sovereignty and the journalist is left red-faced.#pmmodi #donaldtrump #kashmirmediation #usindiapak #tammybruce #moditrump #indiausrelations #pakistanjournalist #kashmirissue #indiasovereignty #trumpmodi #southasiapolitics #toi #toibharat #bharat #breakingnews #indianews

Why Trump may have opposed killing of Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei

President Donald Trump said this week that the US knows where Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is, but won't kill him "at least not for now." His statement came as Israel launched a barrage of attacks on Iran, hinting at the possibility of a "dictatorship collapse" or a regime change in the Islamic nation. In a post on TRUTH social media, Trump wrote, 'We know exactly where the so-called 'Supreme Leader' is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there - We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now. But we don't want missiles shot at civilians, or American soldiers. Our patience is wearing thin. Thank you for your attention to this matter!' Last week, several reports suggested that Trump had vetoed an Israeli plan to kill Khamenei. Three US officials told CBS News that Trump opposed a recent Israeli plan to kill Iran's Supreme Leader. Trump also delayed a decision on possibly bombing Iran's nuclear sites. But why doesn't Trump want Iranian Supreme leader's killing or a "regime change" in Iran? President Trump's wariness over bombing Iran could be due to his concerns about creating 'another Libya' if Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei is toppled, administration insiders told the New York Post. One source close to the administration said he had also mentioned Afghanistan and Iraq. Trump 'doesn't want it [Iran] to turn into Libya,' said one insider familiar with the US administration's deliberations on potentially joining Israel's airstrikes against Iran's nuclear program. According to the report, Trump had in recent days specifically mentioned Libya's decade-long plunge into anarchy in 2011 — after the US joined a NATO bombing campaign to oust dictator Muammar Gaddafi — three sources close to the administration said. 'Libya was a much more extended kind of bombing commitment, and it ended up being regime change,' the fifth source noted. The source who heard the president directly mention the comparison said there are two reasons Trump talks about Libya: "the first is the chaos after what we did to Gaddafi. The second is the Libya intervention made it more difficult to negotiate deals with countries like North Korea and Iran." One source reportedly said the president seems "most inclined to order limited airstrikes to finish off Iran's nuclear facilities at Fordow and Natanz..." 'If the regime falls [in Iran], then it's not on Trump, because that's not the goal of his very limited strike," the source told The Post. The source mentioned concern that 'we get somebody worse than Khamenei.' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said on Thursday afternoon that Trump was biding his time before deciding whether to join Israel's strikes '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.' The Telegraph reported that Khamenei's death could lead to a vacuum at the heart of government that might trigger internal strife, creating opportunities for Iran's myriad ethnic minority groups to rise up. This could "potentially igniting local conflicts that could spiral into a broader civil war," the report added. Fearing such an outcome, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) could also attempt to seize power and turn Iran into a theocratic military dictatorship. Any such outcome would risk chaos on global oil markets, one reason why traders are so anxious about the supreme leader's fate, the report added.

Appeals court lets Trump keep control of National Guard troops deployed to Los Angeles

An appeals court on Thursday (June 19, 2025) allowed President Donald Trump to keep control of National Guard troops he deployed to Los Angeles following protests over immigration raids. The decision halts a ruling from a lower court judge who found Mr. Trump acted illegally when he activated the soldiers over opposition from California Gov. Gavin Newsom. The deployment was the first by a President of a state National Guard without the Governor's permission since 1965. In its decision, the court concluded that 'it is likely that the President lawfully exercised his statutory authority' in federalizing control of the guard. It also found that even if the federal government failed to notify the governor of California before federalizing the National Guard as required by law, Newsom had no power to veto the [resident's order. The court case could have wider implications on the president's power to deploy soldiers within the United States after Mr. Trump directed immigration officials to prioritize deportations from other Democratic-run cities. Mr. Trump, a Republican, argued that the troops were necessary to restore order. Newsom, a Democrat, said the move inflamed tensions, usurped local authority and wasted resources. The protests have since appeared to be winding down. The ruling comes from a panel of three judges on the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, two of whom were appointed by Mr. Trump during his first term. During oral arguments Tuesday (June 17, 2025), all three judges suggested that Presidents have wide latitude under the federal law at issue and that courts should be reluctant to step in. The case started when Mr. Newsom sued to block Mr. Trump's command, and he won an early victory from U.S. District Judge Charles Breyer in San Francisco. Mr. Breyer found that Mr. Trump had overstepped his legal authority, which only allows presidents can take control during times of 'rebellion or danger of a rebellion.' 'The protests in Los Angeles fall far short of 'rebellion,'' wrote Mr. Breyer, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton and is brother to retired Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. The Trump administration, though, argued that courts can't second guess the President's decisions and quickly secured a temporary halt from the appeals court. The ruling means control of the California National Guard will stay in federal hands as the lawsuit continues to unfold.
