In a scene straight out of Top Gun: Maverick, a heroic team of U.S. special forces rescued a crew member of an F-15 fighter jet shot down over Iran who was stranded and wounded. The crew member, a weapons systems officer, reportedly hid in an Iranian “mountain crevice” for more than a day, where he was invisible to everyone except CIA agents. All Americans involved returned safely on back-up aircraft after destroying two transport planes that were supposed to carry the commandos home but got stuck. President Donald Trump will address the mission during a Monday press conference in the Oval Office.
Around the time those search efforts began, on Friday, mediators of a ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran said the Islamic Republic had refused to meet its American counterparts in Islamabad to negotiate a deal. Trump appeared to confirm as much on Sunday, when he said “Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran,” threatening to destroy regime infrastructure if Tehran refused to “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards,” as the president put it.
Later in the day, however, Trump told Axios there is a “good chance” the U.S. could reach a deal with Iran before Tuesday. He appeared to set a deadline in a Sunday afternoon Truth Social post, which read, “Tuesday, 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time!”
Former New York Times White House correspondent and current Times Justice Department reporter Glenn Thrush and several mainstream media bigshots dismissed criticism of an embarrassing Times headline in the paper’s print edition that described NATO as the “North American Treaty Organization” rather than the “Atlantic” one. “There are tired copy editors who work really really hard and make one innocent and mortifying mistake that becomes grist for the social media gumball machine,” he said. He did not note that the mistaken use of “American” was central to the premise of the piece—its headline was, “A North American Treaty Organization Without America?”
Secretary of State Marco Rubio revoked the green cards of the late Iranian terrorist Qassem Soleimani’s niece and her daughter. Rubio said they had been “living lavishly” in the U.S. and called Soleimani’s niece “an outspoken supporter of the Iranian regime who celebrated attacks on Americans and referred to our country as the ‘Great Satan.’”
