Donald Trump's White House has secretly agreed to a multi‑billion dollar bailout for Iran as part of its new peace deal, according to prominent conservative commentator Erick Erickson, who says senior officials privately believe the United States is 'in decline' and are deliberately pushing an isolationist retreat. The alleged Iran agreement, thrashed out while Trump promotes himself as tough on Tehran, would unlock huge sums of cash and oil revenue for the Iranian regime.

Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and other Trump officials spent days publicly swatting away leaked details of the Iran deal as 'Iranian propaganda.' Those leaks, published across US media, suggested Washington had signed up to concessions that critics saw as worse than Barack Obama's Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). Erickson, a fixture of Republican politics and a long‑time hawk on Iran, now says the leaks were largely accurate and that the Trump team has been misleading both reporters and voters about what it has actually agreed.
