Is this a signal that Iran will be the next country to face a possible U.S. military attack? Just a day after President Trump successfully launched a military operation to arrest the dictator of Venezuela, President Trump invited Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina to take a trip on Air Force One. While on Air Force One, Graham handed President Trump a hat with the phrase “Make Iran Great Again” and proceeded to take a picture with Trump, which he later uploaded on X. KOMO reported more on Graham’s move: South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham on Monday posted a picture of himself with President Donald Trump holding a “Make Iran Great Again” hat. “Another great day with @POTUS who has brought America back, stronger than ever, at home and abroad. God bless our Commander in Chief and all of the brave men and women who serve under him,” he wrote on X. He said he was proud to be an American. “God bless and protect the brave people of Iran who are standing up to tyranny,” his post concluded. The post comes after deposed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro was captured by U.S. Army forces over the weekend. Take a look: Another great day with @POTUS who has brought America back, stronger than ever, at home and abroad.

The protests, which started with economic grievances by shopkeepers in Tehran and quickly spread to remote cities in provinces like Fars and Lorestan, where protesters chanted slogans against the ruling clerics, have raised pointed questions for the country’s leaders about how much support they really enjoy. Ali Larijani, who serves as the secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, alleged Friday without providing evidence that Israel and the U.S. were stoking the escalating demonstrations. And Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf said in a post on X that Trump’s threat of intervention makes U.S. bases in the region “legitimate targets.” In a post on Truth Social, Trump had said that if Iran “violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue.” He did not specify what this would mean.
