# Trump says US needs no Iran deal, directs Vance to focus on domestic issues

*Former president stated on Truth Social that the US has hundreds of billions of dollars of Iran's money and control of their strait.*

**Scores for the source reporting** (0-100, assessing the original journalism this article was written from, not this write-up): 

- Trust 42 of 100, higher is better. Central claim attributed to Trump's social media, with some outlets citing Reuters.
- Craft 57 of 100, higher is better. Most outlets provided digests, limiting depth. One full report was available.
- Hype 41 of 100, lower is better. Headlines use strong verbs like 'pulls' and 'sidelines' for Trump's statements.

Scored by MediaBias News; method at https://mediabias.news/methodology.

**The short version**

- Donald Trump stated on Truth Social that the United States does not need a deal with Iran.
- Trump directed Vice President JD Vance to concentrate on corruption and crime in Democrat-run cities and states.
- The former president claimed the US possesses hundreds of billions of dollars of Iran's money and controls their strait.
- Some reports noted Vance's prior involvement in attempting to resolve the conflict with Iran.

Donald Trump announced on his social media platform Truth Social that the United States no longer needs an agreement with Iran. He stated that "those days are long gone." Trump also directed Vice President JD Vance to focus his attention on combating corruption and crime within cities and states governed by Democrats.

Trump asserted that the US has hundreds of billions of dollars belonging to Iran and has control over their strait. Some outlets noted that Vance had previously been involved in efforts to resolve the conflict with Iran. One report indicated that oil prices rose following Trump's statement.

## Disagreement on Vance's past role

The Jerusalem Post stated that Vance had taken on a role in trying to resolve the conflict with Iran and distanced himself from Trump's rhetoric after the midterm election results. Avgi.gr also reported that Vance had taken a role in trying to resolve the conflict with Iran and distanced himself from Trump's war rhetoric. Eesti Rahvusringhääling reported that Vance, as a representative of the Trump administration, previously tried to find a solution to the conflict. It added that Vance blamed the cost of the war with Iran in part for the Republicans' election defeat and that observers assessed this as criticism of the Trump administration's foreign policy.

## How the sides framed it

### Left

- Seven left-rated reports led with Trump's directive to JD Vance to focus on domestic corruption and crime in Democrat-run areas. Fakti.bg, Joe.My.God., Novinky.cz, La Presse, Politicus USA, Raw Story, and Haaretz all highlighted this aspect. Novinky.cz and Haaretz specifically mentioned Trump's claims about possessing Iran's money and controlling their strait. Raw Story described Trump's statement as an "unhinged rant" and noted Vance was given a new assignment. Politicus USA framed the announcement as Trump being "totally terrified" and that Vance would investigate blue state corruption as congressional Democrats prepared to probe Trump.

### Centre

- Seven centre-rated reports focused on Trump's statement that the US does not need a deal with Iran and his directive to Vance to concentrate on domestic issues. Eesti Rahvusringhääling, Jerusalem Post, Newsweek, Digi 24, La Libre, Transport Topics, WTVB, and N1info.rs all carried these points. Transport Topics and N1info.rs specifically reported on the rise in oil prices following Trump's statement. Eesti Rahvusringhääling noted Vance's past involvement in trying to resolve the conflict with Iran and his criticism of US military action against Iran. Newsweek framed the story as Trump saying "no Iran deal: 5 scenarios for what happens next."

### Right

- Seven right-rated reports highlighted Trump directing JD Vance away from Iran negotiations and towards domestic issues, particularly corruption in Democrat-run states. The Daily Signal, The Daily Caller, dailymail.com, n-tv, Jewish Insider, Arutz Sheva, and La Tercera all featured this. The Daily Caller stated Trump "Pulls Vance From Iran Negotiations, Orders Him To Focus On Blue State Corruption." Arutz Sheva reported Trump "pulls JD Vance away from Iran: 'We don't need a deal'." n-tv described it as Trump "whistles Vance back and demands focus on USA."
