U.S. Prepares to Evacuate Iraq Embassy as Netanyahu Ramps Up Threats
The American embassy in Baghdad is preparing to evacuate in a troubling sign for nuclear talks between the U.S. and Iran, as well as greater regional unrest, according to Reuters. Three U.S. and two Iraqi sources confirmed Wednesday that preparations for a departure were underway, but did not specify what security concerns had prompted the move. It's more than likely that the sudden withdrawal is related to Israel's recent threat to target Iran's nuclear facilities, despite ongoing nuclear talks between the United States and Iran. Ahead of a sixth round of talks set to begin this week, Iranian Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh warned in a press briefing Wednesday that if the negotiations failed, and 'conflict is imposed' on Iran that 'all U.S. bases are within our reach and we will boldly target them in host countries.' In an interview on the Pod Force One podcast released Wednesday, Donald Trump spoke about the talks, saying that he was 'less confident now than I would have been a couple of months ago.' 'Something happened to them, but I am much less confident of a deal being made,' he said. The New York Times reported in April that Israel, which is not a participant in the ongoing nuclear talks, had made plans to Iranian nuclear sites that were waved off by Trump, who wanted to continue negotiating with Tehran. Still, Netanyahu has continued to push for military action against Iran, without assistance from the United States. In a phone call Monday, Trump urged Netanyahu to stop talking about attacking Iran, and put an end to the leaks about his military's plans, a source familiar with the conversation told CNN. Netanyahu told him that Iran wasn't serious about the talks, and was simply using delaying tactics. He has some experience with that, after drawing out negotiations for a ceasefire deal in Gaza for months on end. The exact details of the U.S. withdrawal from Baghdad are still unclear. An Iraqi foreign ministry official said that a 'partial evacuation' had been confirmed due to 'potential security concerns related to possible regional tensions.' A U.S. official told Reuters that the State Department was intending to execute the departure through 'commercial means,' though the U.S. military was 'standing by.' In Bahrain, U.S. military dependents have been given the greenlight to temporarily evacuate due to escalating regional tensions, one U.S. official told Reuters.

White House rips 'shameful' LA riots as Trump steps in where Newsom, Bass failed, Leavitt says
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned the protest and riots in Los Angeles as "shameful" on Wednesday, blasting California officials for failing to reign in "left-wing radicals." Leavitt made the comments as soon as she took the podium at a Wednesday press briefing. She emphasized President Donald Trump's efforts to quash the "mob rule" seen in the city while accusing California Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass of failing to serve their constituents. "They didn't have the courage to do the right thing and protect law-abiding Californians from rioters," Leavitt said of the officials. "That's why President Trump deployed the National Guard and mobilized Marines to end the chaos and restore law and order." "The mob violence is being stomped out. The criminals responsible will be swiftly brought to justice, and the Trump administration's operations to arrest illegal aliens are continuing unabated," she added. Watch: Dem, Media Outlets Insist La Anti-ice Riots Are 'Peaceful' Despite Violence, Injured Cops Leavitt went on to field questions from reporters about the "specific criteria" that Trump used to federalize California's National Guard. Read On The Fox News App CNN White House correspondent Kaitlan Collins argued members of the military would not be able to conduct arrests unless Trump invoked the Insurrection Act. "As you know, the president federalized the national guard under U.S. Code 10," Leavitt responded. The Politics Of Trump's Move To Quell Anti-ice Unrest In Los Angeles Appear To Put Democrats On Defense Trump deployed 2,000 National Guardsman to Los Angeles this week, as well as 700 U.S. Marines. Trump suggested earlier this week that he would be willing to arrest Newsom if his administration obstructs ICE operations amid riots in Los Angeles. "He's daring Tom Homan to come and arrest him. Should he do it?" Fox News White House correspondent Peter Doocy asked. Newsom Say Los Angeles Rioters Will Be Prosecuted, Slams Trump For 'Traumatizing Our Communities' "I would do it if I were Tom," Trump responded. "I think it's great. Gavin likes the publicity. But I do think it would be a great thing. He's done a terrible job. I like Gavin Newsom. He's a nice guy, but he's grossly incompetent. Everybody knows." Trump has also been vocal about his belief that many of the rioters and protesters in Los Angeles are professional agitators rather than real protesters. "The people that are causing the problem are professional agitators. They're insurrectionists. They're bad people. They should be in jail," Trump said.

Donald Trump's Approval Rating Is Slipping, Polls Show
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. President Donald Trump's approval rating has slipped in a new Quinnipiac poll out on Wednesday compared to the pollster's survey in April. Why It Matters Trump has routinely touted positive approval ratings and polls during news conferences and campaign rallies throughout his political career. When the president returned to the White House in January, he coasted in with positive numbers. But his approval ratings then dipped significantly amid sweeping tariff announcements. Trump later walked back the tariffs by announcing a 90-day pause for the majority. Slipping in polls could ultimately hinder Trump's political clout in an already highly polarized climate and potentially hurt Republican chances in the coming 2026 midterms. What To Know According to the new Quinnipiac University poll, the president has a 38 percent approval rating and a 54 percent disapproval rating. The poll was conducted among 1,265 self-identified registered voters from June 5 to June 9. The poll's margin of error is 2.8 percent. In a Quinnipiac poll released on April 9, the president's approval rating was 41 percent with a disapproval rating of 53 percent. This shows the president dropping in a span of two months. In other recent polls, the president's approval marks improved among Hispanic voters. According to polls from CNN and CBS, Trump is also outperforming Democrats in a key administration pillar, immigration. He has a net positive approval rating on immigration, soaring from -21 back in June 2017 to +1 on Wednesday, CNN Chief Data Analyst Harry Enten reported. According to the Quinnipiac poll on Wednesday, the president has a 43 percent approval rating on immigration and a 54 percent disapproval rating, while 3 percent of those polled did not offer an opinion. This week's poll from Quinnipiac comes amid a social media feud with billionaire Elon Musk and protests erupting in major U.S. cities over Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.

(Photo by) What People Are Saying Democratic Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut last month on X, formerly Twitter: "Let me explain to you why Donald Trump's sinking approval ratings matter. His enablers and backers will get cold feet as they feel the country turning against him. And it's proof that our activism and our protest is working." Charlie Kirk, founder and president of conservative Turning Point USA, on X this week: "President Trump has a positive net approval rating, and no other issue contributes to his popularity more than immigration: 'He is begging for a fight on immigration because he knows what he's doing so far is working with the electorate.' Bring it on, Democrats." NBC Senior National Political Reporter Sahil Kapur posted to X on Wednesday: "Quinnipiac national poll: Trump's approval rating is 38/53. GOP's approval rating is 32/61. But they have one thing going for them — Democrats are even more unpopular. Dems' approval rating is 21/70. The congressional Democratic Party is under water with Democratic voters." What Happens Next Weekly polls charting the president's approval rating are published frequently by numerous pollsters and media outlets.
