Trump Threatens IRAN: Demands UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER w/Larry Johnson

<p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>President Donald Trump has issued a series of inflammatory posts on Truth Social indicating the U.S. now has “complete control” of the skies over Iran and suggesting he knows the location of Iran’s Supreme Leader, calling him an “easy target” but stating they won’t strike “for now.” He also demanded “unconditional surrender” from Iran, implying potential U.S. military action if provocations continue. This follows a national security meeting after his abrupt return from the G7 summit.</p><p><br /></p><p>Analyst Larry Johnson, a former CIA official, reacted with alarm, saying Trump appears poised to launch a war against Iran without congressional approval, a decision he calls reckless and politically disastrous. Johnson warns this could split Trump’s base and likens it to the Iraq War—calling it another conflict based on misinformation. Prominent Trump allies like Tucker Carlson, Steve Bannon, Candace Owens, and Charlie Kirk have voiced strong opposition, fearing it will destroy Trump's presidency and damage the U.S. long-term.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tucker Carlson specifically warned it could mark the "end of the American empire" and expressed disappointment that Trump resorted to personal attacks rather than addressing criticism. Johnson echoed this frustration, calling Trump “thin-skinned” and “narcissistic,” and stated he now regrets voting for him. He emphasized that Iran, unlike Israel, complies with international nuclear inspection protocols, and suggested that Trump’s rhetoric is dangerously close to fabricating a new war under false pretenses.</p><p>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.</p>
