Trump: U.S. Ready for Military Action as Iran Ceasefire Expires

President Trump made it clear he ain't extending the U.S. Iran ceasefire as it ticks down to

expiration this week.

He told CNBC, the U.S. holds a strong hand for a solid deal, but if talks flop, military

options are locked and loaded.

Meanwhile, Vice President J.D. Vance skipped a trip to Pakistan for fresh negotiations,

sticking to White House meetings instead.

Iran officials are still on the fence about showing up, calling out mixed signals in the

U.S. naval blockade that's got 28 ships turning.

Back already, Iranians are slamming the blockade as a push for surrender, especially after

U.S. forces grabbed one of their cargo ships.

Back home, over 60 veterans got arrested protesting the war on Capitol Hill, demanding Congress

cut funding and pull troops out.

Trump fired back at Democrats like Schumer and Jeffries, labeling their push to end the

war, treasonous and vowing not to rush.

He also noted U.S. oil exports are booming as tankers rerout here, though that means

higher prices long-term and another carrier group is steaming toward the Middle East.

With Iran weighing talks and U.S. forces ramping up, the pressure's building fast could be

a deal or back to bombs before the truth's fully fades.
