President Trump said Thursday he had told Vice President JD Vance to focus his “complete and total attention” on purported benefit fraud in Democrat-run cities and states rather than international diplomacy, adding that the US does not need to complete a deal with Iran at this time.

“The Blue States, such as Minnesota, California, Illinois, and many more, are all poorly run, corrupt disasters,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Billions of Dollars is being stolen each and every month. Our Budget could be quickly BALANCED with the correction of this large scale criminal activity. CORRUPTION is in the Democrat Leadership’s blood!

“We don’t need a deal with Iran. Those days have long since passed. We’ve got their money, Hundreds of Billions of Dollars, and we’ve got their Strait!”

Vance was a key figure in negotiating a 14-point memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran in June of this year that opened a 60-day window for negotiations to finalize an end to the Middle Eastern war — a window that passed without a deal.
