The discussions, held in the White House Situation Room, lasted nearly two hours and focused on key developments regarding Iran.
Officials confirmed that the meeting ended without a resolution, though further details were not released.

Ranking Democrat on Senate Armed Services Committee says „I don‘t think the president has a plan“ on Iran
Sen. Jack Reed, the ranking Democrat on the Senate Armed Services Committee, said Sunday that he believes the U.S. is “ in many respects, a much worse position“ in Iran and he doesn‘t believe Mr. Trump has a plan.
„We‘re in, in many respects, a much worse position,“ Reed told ABC News‘ „This Week.“ „The regime in Tehran is probably more hostile and fanatical than the one that we replaced … We have not yet resolved the issue of nuclear material in Iran. So this has been a tactical demonstration of prowess, but has not achieved the strategic goal that the president announced, and he seems not to have a plan to achieve those goals.“
Fact check: Trump denied he made this remark about Iran. He made it on camera one day earlier
After mentioning that one of his golf clubs is hosting a PGA Tour tournament, he said: “Yesterday, somebody came up, said, ‘Sir, the tournament is great.’ I said, ‘What tournament are you talking about? I’m so busy with the Iranians calling trying to make a good deal, and we’re not gonna let that happen.’ But … they’ve gotta make a bad deal. But — if they make a deal at all. Because frankly, maybe we’re better off not making a deal at all, do you want to know the truth. Because we can’t let this thing go on.”
The law sets a 60-day limit on unauthorized wars. Will Trump respect it?
Lawmakers can revoke a president’s war powers at any time, but Democratic efforts to do so this time around have so far failed. Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who has criticized how Trump has gone about the war, has talked about pushing an authorization to put guardrails on how the war is prosecuted, but has not yet followed through.
A deal to end the Iran war seemed close. Then Trump started posting on social media
One recent proposal from the Iranian side would involve a 10-year pause on enrichment, followed by another decade where Iran would agree to only enrich to levels well below weapons grade, according to a person familiar with the discussions. Meanwhile, Trump has told reporters that he wants no enrichment indefinitely and is against even the 20-year pause.
The Trump administration is also considering unfreezing $20 billion in Iranian assets as part of ongoing negotiations with Tehran, CNN previously reported. The step would come in exchange for Iran turning over its stockpile of highly enriched uranium.
How flexible each side is on their terms will ultimately dictate whether a deal can be reached.
Taktik des Terrorkrieges: Wahrnehmungs-Management, Verwirrung, gelenkte Querfront
(7. Juni 2017)
Ohne auf alle in der Dokumentation dargestellten Entwicklungen und Hintergründe einzugehen, beleuchtet diese u.a. die jahrzehntelange Taktik des „Wahrnehmungs-Managements“ (perception management), die Manipulation der Öffentlichen Meinung, die Lenkung vermeintlich verfeindeter oder sich gegenseitig bekriegender Gruppen durch die gleiche Hand (befördert durch die Unfähigkeit zu dreidimensionalem Verständnis von Politik, links vs rechts, progressiv vs reaktionär, oben vs unten) die gezielte Konfusion jedweder Opposition und die permanente Formwandlung der Macht und der Mächtigen, um sie nicht greifbar und damit unangreifbar erscheinen zu lassen.
Die untenstehenden und in der Dokumentation über die Jahrzehnte genannten Beispiele sind im Zuge der Entwicklung von informationstechnischer Technologie, weltweitem Einsickern von kapitalistischen (Denk)Strukturen und deren Verschmelzung („Globalisierung“), sowie Terrorkrieg in den letzten bald sechzehn Jahren praktisch auf jedes Land bzw jede Region übertragbar.
US-Iran ceasefire clouded by confusion: Analyst
“Not only is it contentious in itself, what remains even more contentious is the fact that no one seems to agree about what everyone agreed about, or didn’t agree about,” Pinfold told Al Jazeera.
“We don’t know what Iran agreed to, we don’t know what both sides think they agreed to,” he added, noting the further complication that various parties which were either attacked or involved in the fighting were not represented.
Lack of unified document complicates US-Iran negotiations
Iran says they have 10 points. The US says it has 15 points. The problem here is a dilemma that there is no single document that anyone can refer to for what both sides are going to discuss.
Trump’s War Address Proves He Hasn’t Got a Clue What He’s Doing
Trump is so desperate for the public’s approval that he sincerely believed that by going on television to make his claim for war 32 days too late, he would turn his plummeting poll ratings around.
By making his case for war, he would help people understand why he was right.
Instead, he revealed how wrong he was to put the United States into a war it couldn’t really win.
LIVE: Israel’s ban on 37 aid groups kicks in, Gaza starts 2026 with despair
Israel’s decision to revoke the licences of 37 international NGOs, including Doctors Without Borders, known by its French initials MSF, has come into effect as the Israeli government pushes to demonise organisations that assist Palestinians, among them United Nations agencies, with unproven accusations of links to Hamas.
People in Gaza have started 2026 not with hope or certainty, but with despair as they face more Israeli restrictions amid a humanitarian catastrophe, Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Gaza City.
Rumors swirl of a plot to oust Keir Starmer as the embattled British leader denies attacking his rivals
Lawmakers are also perplexed by the timing of the briefing. After an unsteady first 16 months in office left Starmer one of the most unpopular British prime ministers on record, Labour MPs had previously signaled that the prime minister would not face a serious leadership contest until after local elections in May 2026, giving his government time to reverse its decline in the polls.
All of L.A. is not a ‘war zone.’ We separate facts from spin and disinformation amid immigration raids
On Sunday, former actor turned conservative pundit James Woods shared a video of police vehicles on fire to his nearly 5 million followers on X, stating, “If I hear one more leftist shill in mainstream media utter the words ‘peaceful protests,’ I’ll throw up.”
Wood’s post had more than 9 million views and it was reposted by at least 16,000 other X users.
One of the X users who reposted the video was United States Republican Sen. Ted Cruz, with the comment, “This…is…not…peaceful,” referring to the alleged actions by demonstrators in Los Angeles.
Fact check: The video content of both posts have been taken down from X because the images and clips of police cars on fire is from 2020 protests in Los Angeles, not recent anti-ICE demonstrations.
CAIR Says ‘International law No Longer Exists’ After Another Palestinian Child Dies of Israeli-Imposed Starvation
“If Israel’s genocidal campaign of forced starvation can be carried out with impunity and with our own government’s support, international law no longer exists. Israel can seemingly violate all international laws and norms with an impunity that does not apply to any other nation on the planet. If international law is to have any meaning, the Trump administration and the world community must act immediately to stop Israel’s forced starvation, state terrorism, slaughter, mass destruction, and ethnic cleansing.”
