  1. Trump says the ceasefire is still in effect while trading strikes in the Strait of Hormuz? That’s like claiming your house isn’t on fire while the kitchen burns down around you.

  2. Iran accusing the US of violating the ceasefire after both sides exchanged fire is rich. They need to look in the mirror before pointing fingers.

  3. The EU saying the tourism impact isn’t severe enough for emergency measures is tone-deaf. Tell that to the airlines losing billions because of this conflict.

  4. So Trump threatens to hit Iran ‘a lot more violently’ if they don’t deal, but insists the truce is holding. How does that square with the actual strikes happening right now?
