President Donald Trump floored one expert on Sunday when he made his latest offer to the remaining Iranian Revolutionary Guard and police officers in the country. In a six-minute video posted on Truth Social, Trump said "thousands" of Iranian regime guards and police have called him and asked for immunity. Trump added that he would give them "full immunity" if they surrendered. Former CIA Director John Brennan discussed Trump's offer on MS NOW with host Chris Jansing. "I don't understand what he means by that because there's going to be a lot of bloodletting inside of Iran," Brennan said. "All of the slaughter, unfortunately, that took place at the hands of the regime, with the protests and demonstrators. There's going to be some accountability and a day of reckoning inside of Iran."On Saturday, the U.S. and Israel coordinated a series of strikes against several sites in Iran. The operation took out multiple military assets and killed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the brutal dictator who had ruled the country since 1989. Brennan added that Trump seemed to be trying to give the Iranian guards a way to escape accountability, which is something he can't guarantee. "And there's no way that Donald Trump can say, 'Okay, if you surrender now, all of you individuals who have massacred Iranian citizens, you're going to be just absolved of any type of accountability and responsibility,'" Brennan said. "So again, this is really messy. It's going to get worse in the days and weeks to come. I really feel for the Iranian people."

President Donald Trump shared a stark message on Sunday after three U.S. military troops were confirmed dead in the wake of the coordinated strikes on Iran. Trump gave a series of one-on-one interviews with news outlets following the U.S. and Israeli strikes against several sites in Iran on early Saturday morning. The strikes killed Iranian dictator Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and several of the country's political leaders, according to reports. In one interview with The Daily Mail, Trump said the service members, who have not yet been identified, were "great" people with "outstanding records." "They're great people," Trump told The Daily Mail. "And, you know, we expect that to happen, unfortunately. Could happen continuous (sic) — it could happen again." Trump said in his Saturday morning address announcing the strikes that acknowledged that U.S. lives could be lost in the "war" with Iran. Congress has not officially approved a declaration of war against the country, even though Trump has described the attack in such terms. "The lives of courageous American heroes may be lost, and we may have casualties," Trump said on Saturday. "That often happens in war. But we're doing this not for now. We're doing this for the future."Read the entire report by clicking here.

U.S. troops in Iran are staring down a difficult situation in the wake of strikes that killed Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, according to a new report. The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that U.S. troops are racing to destroy Iran's ballistic and nuclear missile facilities before they run out of interceptors to defend from Iranian retaliatory strikes. The exact size of the military's ammunition base is classified, but analysts and former officials who spoke to The Journal said the stockpile has been diminished after repeated conflicts in the region. At the same time, military troops are working to fend off a series of retaliatory strikes from the Iranians. U.S. Central Command said on Saturday that they mounted a "largely successful defense against hundreds of Iranian missile and drone attacks," according to the report. “One of the challenges is you can deplete these really quickly,” Kelly Grieco, a senior fellow at the Stimson Center, told The Journal. “We’re using them faster than we can replace them.” Troops are also running low on sea-launched Tomahawk cruise missiles and aircraft-launched weapons following the operation last year to take out Yemen-based Houthi militants, according to the report. “Eventually it boils down to numbers,” Jonathan Conricus, a senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies told The Journal. “How many interceptors will we have versus how many launchers will they be able to field and fire.”Read the entire report by clicking here.
