The View’s Whoopi Goldberg sparked outrage on Newsmax Sunday after accusing President Donald Trump of launching war against Iran partly to distract from his administration’s botched handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

“The liberal media doing what they do best: spin the narrative!” noted one Newsmax host.

President Donald Trump issued a plea Saturday to several countries in the hopes that they would “send ships” to a major shipping route off the coast of Iran to help the United States’ war effort against the Middle East nation, a plea that as of Sunday afternoon appeared to go largely ignored.

In response to the U.S.-Israeli joint military siege launched late last month, Iran has vowed to attack any sea vessels aligned with the United States and its allies that attempt to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, a major shipping route through which 20% of the world’s oil trade flows. As a result, oil prices have skyrocketed, reportedly sparking panic within the Trump administration.

President Donald Trump’s upcoming meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi may end up becoming a tense standoff after the newly re-elected leader vowed to be “candid” about the economic pain the Trump administration had inflicted on the East Asian nation.

“If President Donald Trump is expecting effusive praise for his war on Iran when Japan’s prime minister arrives in Washington on Thursday, he is likely to be disappointed,” wrote Bronwen Maddox, director of the British foreign-policy think tank Chatham House in the organization’s report Sunday.

The Trump administration’s unprecedented military operation in Venezuela earlier this year that resulted in the capturing of President Nicolás Maduro was shaped, at least in part, by former Chevron executive Ali Moshiri, The Wall Street Journal reported Sunday, a revelation that left several journalists stunned.

“Every once in a while you read a story that pulls back the curtain on how the world really works and it takes your breath away,” wrote The New York Times columnist Lydia Polgreen Sunday in a social media post on X.

President Donald Trump’s longstanding fixation with naming things after himself has become a running “joke” among officials in his administration, sources inside and close to the Trump administration told Zeteo in its report published on Sunday.

The sources, who spoke with Zeteo under the condition of anonymity, said that Trump “repeatedly” asks about how he could brand a plethora of different things – “buildings, parks, airports, city streets” – with his name.

Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg hammered President Donald Trump on Sunday over his political action committee’s recent effort to use images from the dignified transfer of American service members killed in action to rake in cash, telling CNN that the president was clearly no longer fit for office.

“Just this week, we saw campaign fundraising materials being put out, emails where the president’s committee, the president’s political operation, was raising money off of images of him at a dignified transfer,” Buttigieg told CNN’s Jake Tapper.

Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, put Attorney General Pam Bondi on notice Saturday over what he said was her “enormous amount of liability” regarding a scandal he called “worse than the Watergate cover-up.”

As the head of the Justice Department, Bondi has faced growing scrutiny over her agency’s alleged failures to comply with the Epstein Files Transparency Act (EFTA), a law that mandates the DOJ release all of its files on Jeffrey Epstein, and with limited redactions. While the DOJ did release millions of files on Epstein, it vowed to withhold millions more, and has released files with redactions that critics say violate the EFTA.
