Update: Trump tells Vance to focus on "corruption and crime" in Democrat-run cities, says "We don't need a deal with Iran"
President Trump wrote on Truth Social Thursday that he asked Vice President Vance to give his "complete and total attention" to corruption and crime in Democrat-run cities and states, adding, "We don't need a deal with Iran... We've got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we've got their Strait!" the New York Post reported. Sources told the Post that Vance isn't entirely off the Iran portfolio and would likely return if stalled talks progress, leaving envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner as primary negotiators. The post followed disputed claims by Turkey's intelligence chief that Vance sought a meeting with Iran's security chief Mohsen Rezaei.
