Internet mocks Trump's UN ambassador after 'desperate' Fox News interview

Reactions were mounting after U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Mike Waltz, appeared on Fox News on Wednesday to defend President Donald Trump's Iran agreement.

Waltz claimed the Iran deal was a success, despite conflicting reports about the terms of the negotiations.

"The Iranian regime is absolutely desperate. I think no president has ever negotiated from such a position of strength," Waltz said.

Commentators criticized Waltz for lying.

"The way these people lie is just still hard to believe," popular influencer account Spiro's Ghost wrote on X.

"They’re so desperate that we’re giving them $300 billion dollars to stop fighting us," Patric Reynolds, comic book artist and political commentator, wrote on Bluesky.

"He can't think that we don't see with our own eyes the reality of things and not the lies they tell," progressive political commentator Sandy, who has more than 28,000 followers, wrote on Bluesky.

"It’s insane that this dude has a job after Signalgate," writer and editor Viv Jackson wrote on Bluesky.
