Things appear to be ratcheting up in the Middle East. On Monday evening, after refusing to sign a rather tepid statement on the Iran-Israel situation proffered by other G7 leaders, President Donald Trump posted to Truth Social a warning that “Everyone should immediately evacuate Tehran!”
Not long after, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tweeted that Trump, who arrived in Canada Sunday evening for the G7 summit, would be heading home after Monday’s dinner.
President Trump had a great day at the G7, even signing a major trade deal with the United Kingdom and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Much was accomplished, but because of what’s going on in the Middle East, President Trump will be leaving tonight after dinner with Heads of State.

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth joined Jesse Watters on Fox News Monday evening to affirm that the Trump administration would still like there to be a deal reached, and described the U.S. posture as this:
“We’re vigilant, we’re prepared…we’re in the region to defend our people and our assets.”
