Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - Graham (R-SC) on U.S.-Iran deal: “A deal that is perceived to allow Iran to survive and possess the ability to control the Strait in the future will put Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Shia militias in Iraq on steroids.”

If it is perceived in the region that a deal with Iran allows the regime to survive and become more powerful over time, we will have poured gasoline on the conflicts in Lebanon and Iraq.

Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - TX GOP Senator Cruz: “I deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran ‘deal,’ being pushed by some voices in the administration…I pray the early reports are wrong—but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging.”

I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran “deal,” being pushed by some voices in the administration.
President Trump’s decision to strike Iran was the most consequential decision of his second term. He was right to do so, and we achieved extraordinary military results—including destroying all of their missiles & drones and sinking their entire navy.
If the result of all that is to be an Iranian regime—still run by Islamists who chant “death to America”—now receiving billions of dollars, being able to enrich uranium & develop nuclear weapons, and having effective control over the Strait of Hormuz, then that outcome would be a disastrous mistake.
The details are still coming out—and I pray the early reports are wrong—but the fact that Biden’s Rob Malley is praising the deal is not encouraging.
President Trump believes in peace through strength, and his strong leadership has already made America much safer. He should continue to hold the line, defend America & enforce the red lines he has repeatedly drawn.

Craig Caplan @CraigCaplan - Video: Speaker Johnson tonight: “We are greatly encouraged to learn a PEACE DEAL in Iran is underway.”

Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson
President Trump is the ONLY one who could have gotten Iran — the world’s largest state sponsor of terrorism — to the negotiating table.
We are greatly encouraged to learn a PEACE DEAL in Iran is underway — and look forward to learning more about the specifics.
Under President Trump’s leadership, our nation is stronger, more respected on the global stage, and safer than ever before.
