Rep. Greg Stanton (D-AZ) mocked Kari Lake, special advisor to the United States Agency for Global Media, over her losses in Arizona elections.

During a Wednesday House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing, Stanton accused Lake of lying by falsely claiming she had not lost the Arizona governor's race or the U.S. Senate contest.

A new report obtained by CNN from the Pentagon's intelligence division concluded that President Donald Trump's strike on Iran only set back the country's nuclear program by months.

Sources briefed on the report from the Defense Intelligence Agency, or DIA, told CNN that it drastically undercut Trump's claim that the facilities had been "obliterated".

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) warned that President Donald Trump's effort to negotiate a ceasefire between Iran and Israel could be "a step backward."

During a Tuesday interview on Fox News, Graham said he was not optimistic about the ceasefire.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) went into damage control mode after a reporter asked her about her split with President Donald Trump over his decision to bomb Iran.

After accusing Trump of a "bait and switch" for going against his campaign promises, Greene faced questions from a reporter about the split. The lawmaker shared a video of the interaction on X.

President Donald Trump lashed out at "sleazebags" in the media after he said they were trying to "demean" his strike on Iran.

"The sites that we hit in Iran were totally destroyed, and everyone knows it," Trump wrote Monday on his Truth Social platform. "Only the Fake News would say anything different in order to try and demean, as much as possible — And even they say they were 'pretty well destroyed!'"

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) lost control of her temper during a live interview about President Donald Trump's strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.

Appearing on War Room on Monday, MAGA influencer Steve Bannon noted that Fox News host Mark Levin had called Greene a "nitwit" for opposing the attack on Iran.

MAGA influencer Steve Bannon slammed President Donald Trump's administration for failing to prove Iranian nuclear sites had been destroyed after a U.S. bombing campaign.

"I don't think people are sleeping better," Bannon said on Monday, following the weekend strike. "But I was very upset yesterday morning when we at least didn't have, you know, give me a Norman Schwarzkopf, give me a, at least a grainy gun cannon photo of exactly what the freaking, you know, what happened."

A CNN panel discussion devolved after right-wing pundit Scott Jennings described President Donald Trump's bombing of Iran as a "de-escalation."

During the Sunday discussion, analyst Xochitl Hinojosa noted that Trump had been "very clear" about not involving the U.S. in foreign wars until the attack on Iran.

A Republican supporter and "hardcore MAGA guy" told C-SPAN that he was "so disappointed" in President Donald Trump after he escalated the conflict with Iran by ordering a military strike.

"I woke up this morning on my X account, and there's a short clip of Trump just ripping into Bush on the presidential debates, and, you know, complaining about how the country was lied to about the weapons of mass destruction," the caller named John explained Sunday on C-SPAN's Washington Journal program. "Well, you know, I mean, I feel the same thing has just happened again to us."

"Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) blasted his Republican colleagues for coordinated pro-war talking points after President Donald Trump ordered a strike on Iran.

"It was a good week for the neocons in the military-industrial complex who want war all the time," Massie told CBS host Margaret Brennan on Sunday. "I wouldn't call my side of the MAGA base isolationists. We are exhausted. We are tired from all of these wars, and we're non-interventionists."
