The Iran Situation Is Getting Really Hot – It Looks Like Military Action Is Near

A potential US action in Iran is becoming increasingly likely by the hour. 

Only hours before the capture and arrest of Venezuelan terrorist leader Maduro, President Trump shared a message to the leadership of the terrorist Islamist regime in Iran.

He said that you better not shoot and kill protesters or the US “will come to their rescue”.  This was posted on Truth Social.

If Iran shoots and violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go. Thank you for your attention to this matter! President DONALD J.TRUMP

Only hours after President Trump shared the above message, Maduro was captured.  The Iranians were emboldened.  Massive crowds protested. 

We reported that this really may finally be the end of the radical Islamist terrorist regime running Iran. 

BREAKING: Thousands of BRAVE Iranians are taking to the streets on the 11th day of the uprising against the Islamic Republic’s terrorist regime.

The mainstream media is IGNORING this.

Make it go viral. Share it everywhere.

Here is another HUGE crowd in Iran.

Next, the Mullahs started killing Iranians.  Estimates of up to 40,000 Iranians are now dead.  This was a terrible thing for the regime to do.

On Tuesday afternoon, word of some sort of action in Iran by America was being discussed:

🇺🇸 CIA Director John Ratcliffe will join Sec. Rubio for a classified 3 p.m. ET briefing on Iran with the congressional ‘Gang of 8,’ the top bipartisan leaders of Congress and the chairs and ranking members of the intelligence committees.

🇮🇷 The briefing is about Iran.

And more:

🇺🇸🇮🇷 Marco Rubio will brief top lawmakers at the White House today on Iran as the administration weighs possible strikes.

The briefing will include House and Senate leaders and the top members of the intelligence committees.

As the build up continues, the US deployed its best military jets to the Middle East.

🚨 BREAKING: U.S. DEPLOYS 12 F-22 RAPTORS TO SOUTHERN ISRAEL

The United States has deployed 12 F-22 Raptor fighter jets to southern Israel, a rare and significant move in regional force posture.

The F-22 is the U.S. Air Force’s most advanced air-superiority platform — built for stealth, air dominance, and first-strike capability.

It’s so advanced that Washington has never sold it to any ally. Export of the aircraft is prohibited under U.S. law.

Its forward deployment signals elevated deterrence and heightened operational readiness amid rising regional tensions.

As we said some time ago.  It’s not if, it’s when.

BREAKING: Cuban military KILLS four Americans in speedboat

The Cuban military has killed four Americans and injured six others who were approaching the island in a speedboat. Cuba claims that the Americans began shooting at their Border Guard Troops when they approached for ID, and they were forced to retaliate.

Here’s what the Cuban Embassy says:

Note from the Ministry of the Interior:

On the morning of February 25, 2026, a violating speedboat was detected within Cuban territorial waters. The vessel, registered in Florida, United States, with registration number FL7726SH, approached up to 1 nautical mile northeast of the El Pino channel, in Cayo Falcones, Corralillo municipality, Villa Clara province.

When a surface unit of the Border Guard Troops of the Ministry of the Interior, carrying five service members, approached the vessel for identification, the crew of the violating speedboat opened fire on the Cuban personnel, resulting in the injury of the commander of the Cuban vessel.

As a consequence of the confrontation, as of the time of this report, four aggressors on the foreign vessel were killed and six were injured. The injured individuals were evacuated and received medical assistance.

In the face of current challenges, Cuba reaffirms its determination to protect its territorial waters, based on the principle that national defense is a fundamental pillar of the Cuban State in safeguarding its sovereignty and ensuring stability in the region.

Investigations by the competent authorities continue in order to fully clarify the events.

The Florida Attorney General has responded by ordering an investigation, saying the Cuban government cannot be trusted:

I can only imagine what President Trump is going to say about this. I’m sure he won’t be happy and will be equally unbelieving of the Cuban narrative.

Border-State Sen. Mark Kelly is Feeling the Heat After Refusing to Stand for American Citizens Over Illegals

Sen. Mark Kelly, left, an Arizona Democrat, was unable to say anything positive about President Donald Trump's State of the Union speech. He couldn't even agree to Trump's challenge to affirm that the government's first duty is to protect the interests of U.S. citizens, rather than illegal aliens.

How the reddish state of Arizona ended up with two senators who are essentially “squad” members is beyond comprehension.

Sen. Mark Kelly was demonstrating his far-left bona fides during President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address on Tuesday night when he could not bring himself to stand in support of American citizens.

A particularly memorable part of Trump’s speech was when he said, “One of the great things about the State of the Union is how it gives Americans the chance to see clearly what their representatives really believe.

“So tonight, I’m inviting every legislator to join with my administration and reaffirming a fundamental principle. If you agree with this statement, then stand up and show your support: The first duty of the American government is to protect American citizens, not illegal aliens,” the president said.

Kelly kept it parked right in his seat, as he and his fellow Democrats did throughout nearly all the address, regardless of what Trump said or which Americans he honored.

You would think a senator from Arizona, which saw such a massive influx of hundreds of thousands of migrants crossing the border illegally during the Biden years, could stand for the proposition that the federal government’s first duty is to protect American citizens. Nope.

After Trump’s speech, Kelly posted a video, saying, “Donald Trump used most of that time — most of it — to try to further divide us as a nation. It was angry. It wasn’t what I expect of a president.”

“I mean, we’ve had 250 years of people that have held this office. A long line of great Americans of both parties who often use that opportunity to bring the country together. And Donald Trump just chose to do the opposite,” he continued.

The senator threw one bone Trump’s way, saying it was good for the president to honor veterans during the address. Yes, one was a fellow Navy veteran receiving a Medal of Honor, so Kelly was obliged to say something.

“But other than that, I think this was an incredibly disappointing and low point, if there can be one, in this president’s time in office,” Kelly concluded.

What?

Kelly could not even bring himself to mention the appearance of the men’s Team USA Olympic hockey team, which won the first gold since the 1980 “Miracle on Ice.”

One person responded to Kelly’s video, posting an image of the many Americans killed by illegal immigrants.

Another pointed out he also did not stand for the grieving mother of Iryna Zarutska, a Ukrainian war refugee who was stabbed to death in Charlotte, North Carolina, last August.

Still another posted, “He actually gave you and the other ‘divided people’ in attendance many opportunities to come together as a Nation. You refused to stand and unite on just about everything.”

Kelly’s behavior was not quite as bad as “squad” members Reps. Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib, who screamed at the president for enforcing the nation’s immigration laws, but it was disgraceful.

Trump said to the Democrats, “Isn’t that a shame? You should be ashamed of yourself not standing up. You should be ashamed of yourself. That is why I’m also asking you [the Congress] to end deadly sanctuary cities that protect the criminals and enact serious penalties for public officials who block the removal of criminal aliens.”

“In many cases, drug lords, murderers all over our country. They’re blocking the removal of these people out of our country. And you should be ashamed of yourself,” Trump said directly to Omar amd Tlaib.

Meanwhile, Arizona’s other senator, Democrat Ruben Gallego, decided to skip the State of the Union, instead participating in a little alternate one on the National Mall.

Incredibly, Gallego said that Trump has made the country less secure. How? By enforcing the border, so no illegal aliens have been released into the country in the last nine months? The White House said the administration has achieved a 99.9 percent reduction in releases into the U.S. compared to the Biden administration.

Gallego is in a state of denial.

Somehow, Arizona, a place Trump carried in 2024 by the widest margin of any swing state, has some of the most woke, out-of-touch senators in the country. It’s a shame.

FBI searching home and office of Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho

Federal officers are searching the home of Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho, The California Post confirmed.

The searches are being conducted at Carvalho’s San Pedro home, his office at LAUSD in downtown Los Angeles and another location in Miami tied to the investigation, according to a law enforcement source. An affidavit filed concerning the search was under seal, officials said.

LAUSD employees looked confused outside headquarters Wednesday morning, unsure if they were able to go into work. Federal agents were seen entering the building, but would not comment on the reason for their visit when asked by a reporter for The California Post.

Carvalho is the LAUSD’s chief employee and has led one of the nation’s largest school systems since 2022.

One of the searches is being conducted at Carvalho’s San Pedro home.

It’s unclear why authorities are searching Carvalho’s home and office.

The progressive LA schools boss has voiced his opposition to the federal government’s immigration agenda in the past.

It’s unclear why authorities are conducting the search.

In July, Carvalho slammed ICE agents for allegedly urinating on the grounds of a Pico Rivera school as a “new level of despicable insult.” He said at a news conference in September last year that students and families should be protected from “immoral, unethical and illegal actions.”

“Despite the injustice. Despite the fear. Despite the pressure. Despite the unbearable lack of humanity. Our kids are soaring,” Carvalho said. “And for the second year in a row, these students have provided best-in-class achievement across all grade levels.”

Carvalho came to the United States as an undocumented immigrant himself and has been passionate about protecting students from ICE agents’ visits to city schools.

The FBI is also searching Carvalho’s downtown LA office.

He was a former longtime superintendent for Miami-Dade County Public Schools before coming to LA, and the FBI is also searching another location in Miami tied to the investigation.LA students have recently protested ICE’s actions. Teens walked out of school, burned flags, vandalized buildings and one even swung a pipe at officers earlier this month.

School officials have said students are “dealing and engaging with issues” in the news and community.

Federal officers are searching the home of Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho, The California Post confirmed.

“The superintendent’s message is consistent: We care deeply about our students, and we recognize that many young people are dealing and engaging with issues they see in the news and in their community,” district public information officer Christine Stephens told the Los Angeles Times. “Students have the right to express themselves peacefully. At the same time, the district must uphold its responsibility to maintain a safe, supervised learning environment during the school day.”

LA cops have taken a more disciplinarian stance on the student walkouts.

“School attendance is mandatory in the City of Los Angeles and there may be legal consequences for parents and students,” the LAPD wrote. “It is unlawful for any minors under 18 to be in public places, streets, or amusement spots during school hours.”

He was a former longtime superintendent for Miami-Dade County Public Schools before coming to LA.
