Donald Trump’s lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, says the president is committed to regime change in Iran and will most likely tear up the nuclear deal before he begins supporting protesters to oust the supreme leader from power.
“We got a president who is tough, who does not listen to the people who are naysayers, and a president who is as committed to regime change as we are,” former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani – US President Donald Trump’s personal friend and a long-time supporter – said in a speech to the Iran Freedom Convention for Democracy and Human Rights in Washington.
Trump aides hired Israeli intel firm to find dirt on Obama's Iran deal team – reports
US President Donald Trump's aides hired a private intelligence firm to uncover compromising info on key foreign policy advisers to Barack Obama in a bid to undermine the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran, the Observer reports.
"The idea was that people acting for Trump would discredit those who were pivotal in selling the deal, making it easier to pull out of it," a source told the UK newspaper, which has published an exclusive report based on unnamed sources.
The brief was to investigate the two men's "personal relationships, any involvement with Iran-friendly lobbyists, and if they had benefited personally or politically from the peace deal."
I think it is outrageous that Trump would use US tax dollars to pay a foreign government to investigate our government about a situation that could lead to a war which it is no secrete they have been pushing for. Can you say conflict of interest?!
Tomorrow: "My comments on regime change in Iran don't actually reflect policy, just my understanding of policy. Once again, I was babbling without knowing what I was talking about."
