Trump Declares Iran "DEAD" After US Strikes Hit Regime for First Time in Weeks

President Donald Trump reportedly declared that Iran "IS DEAD" following renewed U.S. military action against the regime, dismissing any reports suggesting otherwise as a "good line of BULLSH*T."

The president took to Truth Social hours after U.S. forces struck Iran's Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz, marking the first such strike after a month-long pause in the fighting.

"Iran is officially a Failed Nation," Trump wrote. "IT IS DEAD! They have no Navy, they have no Air Force, they have no currency, they are not paying their soldiers or police, Inflation is at 300%, and their leadership is in total disarray and incapable of properly representing the country."

Trump didn't stop there, continuing his blistering assessment of the regime's condition and its handling of internal unrest.

"The only thing they have is FAKE NEWS from the USA, a willingness to kill their protesters (now over 100,000 people dead. They must be tried for war crimes against humanity!), and a good line of 'BULLSH*T.' Thank you for your attention to this matter!" he wrote.

According to U.S. Central Command, the United States carried out "limited, precise" action against Iran's Revolutionary Guard mine-laying forces on Sunday, citing an "imminent threat" the forces posed to the strategic oil pipeline running through the region.

Iran responded by launching ballistic missiles toward two U.S. bases in Jordan. Jordan's military reported that eight of the incoming missiles were successfully intercepted.

Shortly after the latest strike on the regime, Trump shared a menacing AI-generated video depicting an all-out assault on Iran's Kharg Island.
"Kharg Island being blown to smithereens!!!" Trump wrote alongside the post.

The renewed strikes and heated rhetoric mark an escalation after weeks of relative quiet between the two nations, with Trump making clear through his social media posts that he views the Iranian regime as crumbling under the weight of economic collapse, military losses, and internal turmoil. The exchange of strikes between U.S. forces and Iranian-backed positions in Jordan signals that tensions in the region remain far from resolved, even as the president insists the regime's days are effectively over.
