Trump announces peace deal with Iran, declares Strait of Hormuz will reopen: 'Let the oil flow!'
President Donald Trump announced Sunday that the United States and Iran have officially reached a peace agreement, marking a major diplomatic breakthrough that would reopen the Strait of Hormuz and end the U.S. naval blockade of Iranian ports.
"The Deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete," Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
"Congratulations to all! I hereby fully authorize the toll free opening of the Strait of Hormuz, and, simultaneously herewith, authorize the immediate removal of the United States Naval blockade. Ships of the World, start your engines. Let the oil flow!"
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, whose country has served as a mediator, was the first to announce the peace deal, saying a signing ceremony is scheduled to take place Friday in Switzerland.
TRUMP SAYS HE'S CANCELED IRAN STRIKES, ADDS POTENTIAL DEAL-SIGNING 'TO BE ANNOUNCED SHORTLY'
Trump added that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen once the parties formally sign the agreement.
"With the opening of the Strait upon the signing of the Deal on Friday, for purposes of mine removal, oil will flow on both ends again for the Region, and the World!" he said.
IRAN REVEALS 10-POINT PLAN FOR PEACE WITH THE US – HERE'S WHAT'S IN IT
According to Sharif, the deal includes the termination of military operations across the region, including in Lebanon, where Iran-backed terrorist proxy Hezbollah has been engaged in conflict with Israel.
"Both sides have declared the immediate and permanent termination of military operations on all fronts, including in Lebanon," he said.
Additional details of the agreement, including any provisions related to Iran's nuclear program, were not immediately released.
Iran's deputy foreign minister said talks with the United States on a final and more comprehensive agreement will take place during a 60-day ceasefire period, according to Reuters.
The outlet reported that the future of Iran's nuclear program will be addressed in upcoming negotiations. Trump has long maintained that Iran cannot be in possession of a nuclear weapon and has repeatedly vowed to prevent Tehran from developing, acquiring or obtaining one.
Trump further praised his administration for securing the agreement.
"This Great Deal will bring Peace and Security to the whole Region," he said. "Many presidents have tried to make Peace with Iran, and all have failed before me. The Leaders of the Region have, for the first time, found a President who can help them achieve real Peace."
Sharif also thanked the United States and Iran for their "commitment to finding a diplomatic solution to the conflict," as well as Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey for their contributions to the mediation effort.
With the agreement now in place, mediators are expected to facilitate a series of meetings this week that could lay the groundwork for technical negotiations and the official signing ceremony, Sharif said.
The peace deal would formally end the high-stakes conflict that began on Feb. 28, which disrupted roughly 20% of global oil shipments that pass through the Strait of Hormuz and contributed to higher energy prices worldwide.
It comes roughly one year after Israel initiated massive strikes on Iran during Operation Rising Lion. The strikes sparked a 12-day conflict between the nations before Trump ordered strikes on a trio of nuclear facilities later that same month.

Mamdani parties with Knicks champion Jose Alvarado on Puerto Rican Day Parade float in New York
Zohran Mamdani got a taste of what it's like to be a champion on Sunday.
The New York City mayor paraded with an NBA champion in New York, less than 24 hours after his hometown Knicks won their first NBA title since 1973.
After flying overnight from San Antonio back to the Big Apple, Jose Alvarado, also a native New Yorker, took part in a local Puerto Rican Day Parade, and the mayor joined him in the fun.

Alvarado spent most of his time on the float shirtless and partying, which was totally understandable in the aftermath of a championship.
A video captured from the parade showed Alvarado rapping Jadakiss' verse from Ja Rule's 2004 hit, "New York," while Mamdani also sang some words from the throwback song that's been revitalized as a Knicks anthem.
Alvarado's Knicks teammate Jordan Clarkson was also spotted on the float.
Alvarado went to Christ the King High School in Queens and is of Mexican and Puerto Rican descent; he represents Puerto Rico in international play.
He was traded to the Knicks from the New Orleans Pelicans as a minor, yet impactful, move for the Knicks' title run. He played for a majority of the fourth quarter in the team's 29-point comeback in Game 4.
The entire Knicks team will be on floats for their championship parade on Thursday. They won the title with a 94-90 Game 5 victory over the San Antonio Spurs, coming back from double digits again ... twice.

Scottish fan has priceless reaction after seeing New England Patriots cheerleaders at World Cup game
If there has been one theme of the 2026 FIFA World Cup so far, it has been visitors from foreign nations discovering just how awesome America is.
From German dudes discovering Waffle House in the Deep South to Japanese fans experiencing chips and salsa overload in Texas, it's been absolutely beautiful seeing the guests of this great nation being exposed to the best parts of our culture stateside.
One country whose denizens have had a particularly enjoyable time in the United States has been Scotland.
From the moment they hopped off the plane, droves of Scots have been taking in the sights and sounds of America.
WORLD CUP FANS FALL IN LOVE WITH AMERICAN CULTURE, COMFORT FOOD CLASSICS
We all know about the Scottish tourist who made his pilgrimage to the mecca of gas stations, Buc-ee's, as well as the Airbnb bagpipe brigade, but a fellow Scotsman got the ultimate taste of freedom after he had already set foot in the stadium to watch his beloved nation start their quest for a World Cup.
As the Tartan Army (the name given to the loyal supporters of Scotland's national soccer team) took over Boston Stadium to watch their lads lock horns with Haiti, one man was absolutely mesmerized by what he saw, but it had nothing to do with anything happening on the pitch.
What's wrong, man? They don't have cheerleaders in Edinburgh?
A NEW SURVEY ANSWERS THE AGE-OLD QUESTION OF WHICH FIFA WORLD CUP FAN BASE IS MOST ATTRACTIVE
Clearly, if they do, none of them look like the New England Patriots' dancers.
Check out this man's face, he looks like a kid who just walked into a toy store for the first time.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
Let's hope the Scottish national team is more locked in on soccer than this guy is, or this will be a quick tournament for them.
Once again, it's so nice to see things we take for granted in this country be cherished by those from far-off lands, and scantily clad women dancing in unison is definitely one of them.
I hope they have a Twin Peaks restaurant up in Foxborough, because if they do, I doubt this guy ever goes back to the motherland again.
God bless America, am I right, folks?
Andy Reid addresses whether upcoming Taylor Swift-Travis Kelce wedding is a distraction: 'Can't talk about it'
The wedding of the century. Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and singer Taylor Swift. Rumors are flying as to when and where it'll take place. Though, presumably, it'll happen before the start of the 2026 NFL season to avoid interfering with the Chiefs' schedule.
Kelce, who will turn 37 years old in the middle of the season, is looking to rebound from a bit of a down season. While his yards per catch went up from 2024 to 2025, the 76 receptions were the lowest total since 2015, essentially his first full season as a starter in Kansas City.
His catch percentage also dipped below his career average, and his 46 catches resulting in a first down were again the lowest number since 2015. It's no secret Kelce is nearing the end of his NFL career. And with an upcoming wedding, to one of the most famous women in the world, it'd be understandable if his head was in a different place.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid addressed it at a recent news conference, as well as whether he'll be attending the ceremony.
ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!
"Can’t talk about it, can’t talk about it," Reid joked to reporters, per ESPN. "Listen, [Kelce’s] been here most of the offseason, if not the whole offseason. He did the mandatory camp and did a nice job there, so it’s good to have him back in and rolling. He’s very excited."
Reid also said Kelce might be able to avoid the distractions because, well, Taylor Swift is probably handling most of the planning.
"You see no distractions with that and the wedding. If it's like when I got married, my wife did everything. I just kind of followed her lead on it [and] showed up. Maybe he's doing more, but he looks like he's pretty focused in on this job here, too."
Chiefs training camp is expected to start sometime in late July, in the ramp-up to preseason games and the regular season. Kansas City's first preseason game comes at home against the Los Angeles Rams on Aug. 15, before a big division matchup against the Denver Broncos to open the year at Arrowhead on Sept. 14. Kelce will likely be a married man by then, though of course, given who he's marrying, that won't stop the questions about it.
Stephen A Smith calls Trump an 'upgrade' compared to Biden amid New York Knicks feud
Stephen A. Smith remarked that President Donald Trump was an "upgrade" compared to former President Joe Biden amid their ongoing feud on Sunday.
Smith was asked about his and Trump's back-and-forth comments regarding the latter's decision to attend Game 3 of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden in honor of the New York Knicks last week.
In spite of the barbs thrown between the two, Smith insisted that Trump was an "upgrade" compared to Biden in terms of sharpness, despite previously claiming Trump fell asleep during the Knicks game.
STEPHEN A SMITH SHUTS DOWN 25TH AMENDMENT TALK, SAYS ‘THAT AIN’T GOING TO HAPPEN’
"Well, I don’t know anybody that would associate the word 'sharp' with [Trump] because he doesn’t seem that sharp with some of the decisions that he makes sometimes, to be quite honest with you," Smith said. "But I’m not here to denigrate or insult the President of the United States in that regard. He is certainly an upgrade from what we were seeing from Joe Biden in terms of his alertness and what have you. I certainly would say that I would not accuse him of that. But I‘m not going to insult the president."
Though he continued to claim that Trump was "napping" during the game, the ESPN host shrugged off the concern, pointing out that the president has "got a lot on his plate." However, Smith pushed back against Trump's past comments referring to him as a "low IQ individual."
"When he wants to sit up there and question my IQ and talk to me about people that would smoke me in a debate, well, why don‘t you do it yourself? Why defer to anybody else? Because I‘d be more than happy to sit across from the president and debate some of the decisions that he‘s made. And I‘m not interested in running or anything like that," Smith said.
When reached for a comment by Fox News Digital, the White House referred to Trump's Truth Social post on Wednesday slamming Smith.
"Stephen A. Smith is an arrogant fool, a low IQ individual. In other words, he’s 'dumb as a rock,' and totally unqualified to ever think of running for high political office, or even low political office, for that matter! He’d get annihilated in a debate by the most incompetent of politicians. Joe Biden’s now 'fabled' performance would look great by comparison to anything that this loudmouth huckster has to offer, which isn’t much! Within a few weeks, they’d laugh him out of politics!!!" Trump wrote.
The feud between Smith and Trump began after Smith criticized Trump's decision to attend Game 3, calling it "selfish" and "narcissistic." After the Knicks went on to lose against the San Antonio Spurs 115-111, Smith blamed Trump for the loss by claiming that his presence threw off the team's momentum.
STEPHEN A SMITH BACKS TRUMP ATTENDING BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP CASE
In response to Smith's comments, Trump appeared to mock Smith's presidential aspirations in a comment to Fox News Digital.
"I think he’s a nice guy, but you need a certain aptitude to run for president," Trump said. "You need a high IQ. I’m not sure that Stephen has that. I don’t think he does, actually."
By Saturday, Smith appeared willing to bury the hatchet after the Knicks won the NBA championship for the first time in 53 years.
"The Knicks just won the title. I don't give a s--- about politics or anything like that. I could care less. You could ask me tomorrow, you could ask me Tuesday. But right now, the New York Knicks just ended a 53-year drought. I've waited all my life for this moment. And I'm not going to let anything get in the way of that," Smith told OutKick/Fox News Digital.
Spencer Pratt unites with Karen Bass' brother to sue the LA mayor over Palisades fire destruction
Spencer Pratt continued his plight to save Los Angeles only days after conceding in the mayoral race against incumbent Karen Bass.
Pratt, 42, gave the public nod of approval to the LA mayor's brother, Kenneth Bass, who last month sued the city, state, and additional agencies as part of broader legal action filed following the deadly Palisades fire.
"I am proud to be teaming up with Karen Bass' brother in suing his sister for her reckless negligence that led to the destruction of our homes," Pratt posted on X Saturday.
LA MAYOR KAREN BASS' BROTHER LOSES HOME IN PALISADES FIRE
"I hope their Thanksgiving dinner isn't too awks. I know ours hasn't been the same since last year ... "
Kenneth and his wife, Cindy, claimed to suffer physical injuries and emotional distress as a result of the fire, which destroyed their Malibu home.
Kenneth and a handful of new residents joined the initial Palisades Fire Litigation suit, which was filed against the City of Los Angeles days after flames ripped through the beach-side community, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital.
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, the state of California, the California Department of Parks and Recreation and Southern California Edison are also included as defendants in the suit.
"There's nothing new here — Mayor Bass has spoken of her brother's loss publicly since January of 2025," a representative for the mayor said in a statement to Fox News Digital.
"Thousands of people are plaintiffs in this action, which names 18 public and private sector defendants. The City Attorney's Office is responsible for defending the City and DWP in this lawsuit."
SPENCER PRATT AND HEIDI MONTAG SUE THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES, LADWP AFTER PALISADES FIRE
In his own January suit, Pratt accused LADWP of making "the conscious decision to operate the water supply system with the reservoir drained and unusable as a 'cost-saving' measure" during the deadly LA fires, according to the lawsuit obtained by Fox News Digital.
Pratt representatives did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
"The Hills" star recently conceded in the LA mayor race after finishing in third place behind Bass and council member Nithya Raman.
"I'm moving on to the next more interesting phase. Listen, I spent a lot of time slaying everybody. I've ridiculed everyone on the roster," Pratt wrote on Instagram.
"You think you can get rid of me that easily? I know a lot of dimwit jerks thought I was in this for a grift, that I was gonna roll up and leave town if I didn't get into City Hall. Hey morons, I didn't get in this for political power. I got in to expose this corrupt machine, and nothing has changed."
Last month, Pratt vowed to leave the city if he didn't make the ballot.

During a chat with fellow Los Angeleno Adam Carolla from his burned-out lot in the Pacific Palisades, the reality star said that he's only interested in rebuilding his home if he wins the race.
"I’m going to win the lawsuit against Gavin Newsom’s state park, and with that money, if I’m the mayor of Los Angeles, I will rebuild," Pratt confessed.

"If Karen Bass gets re-elected or Nithya [Raman] gets elected, I will be done with trying to live in LA."
Pratt doubled down on his threat, and said when he wins the lawsuit, he's packing up to find a new American Dream.
"I’ll take that money from the Newsom state park and the LADWP, and I’ll go somewhere that my kids will not have to see naked zombies, and I can have the last American dream somewhere," Pratt said.
"But I will not rebuild if these people are in charge, because what would I be putting money into?"
Boston police arrest 14-year-old after masked suspects allegedly rob siblings’ lemonade stand
A 14-year-old suspect has been arrested in connection with an armed robbery last week that targeted a children’s lemonade stand in South Boston, authorities said Friday.
The robbery happened Wednesday afternoon near West Ninth Street, when two suspects allegedly approached two children operating the stand, stole their cash box and displayed a firearm during the incident.
Officials said the arrested suspect is facing multiple firearm-related charges, including two counts of armed robbery and two counts of unlawful possession of a firearm.
The second individual involved remains at large.
The suspects allegedly targeted a lemonade stand run by an 11-year-old girl and her 12-year-old brother, CBS 4 Boston reported.
The Boston Police Department (BPD) said the pair made several passes by the stand before approaching and asking whether Apple Pay was accepted.

Before the children could respond, the suspects allegedly grabbed the cash box, with one flashing a black firearm tucked into his waistband.
The Boston Herald reported that the suspects allegedly stole about $50 from the cash box.
Police said the 14-year-old suspect was arrested Friday after the police released surveillance video and photos of the two suspects Thursday afternoon in an effort to generate leads.
In the video, the suspects were seen wearing black face coverings, with one also carrying a black backpack and a pink box believed to be containing the cash.
Officials said the teen will be processed as a juvenile delinquent and is expected to be arraigned in Boston Juvenile Court on delinquency charges.
The police said it is actively reviewing the facts and circumstances surrounding the incident and urged anyone with information about the second suspect to contact detectives at (617) 343-4742.
Thierry Henry and Zlatan Ibrahimović get emotional watching FOX coworker Alexi Lalas react to National Anthem
Few things can bring out a sense of national pride quite like an international sports tournament.
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup taking place on U.S. soil, every American (or at least the ones proud of their heritage) is experiencing a renewed sense of love for their country.
Then again, it's even easier to be proud of where you're from when you have foreign visitors heaping praise onto your homeland in droves, but I digress.
One patriotic American who doesn't need any reminder that his country is awesome is FOX Sports soccer analyst Alexi Lalas.
ALEXI LALAS DOESN'T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT TEAM USA PRESSURE DURING HOME WORLD CUP: 'CRY ME A RIVER'
Lalas donned the Stars and Stripes for the United States during the 1994 World Cup, which also took place in America, and he has never been shy about wearing his pride for the States on his sleeve.
No one was happier to see the U.S. Men's National Team dismantle Paraguay to open the group stages of this year's World Cup than Lalas, but his pride wasn't just contained to the happenings on the pitch.
During the singing of the national anthem before Friday's match, Lalas apparently got very emotional and was moved to tears.
UNITED STATES SHATTERS WORLD CUP VIEWERSHIP RECORD IN FIRST MATCH VS PARAGUAY IN LOS ANGELES
No one in the public knew until much later, when, during a recap broadcast, Lalas' fellow FOX commentator, former French soccer star Thierry Henry, revealed he was moved by his coworker's display of emotion.
"This man over there, as I looked at him (during) the National Anthem," Henry said, as he pointed toward Lalas. "How you cried, and how you were passionate about singing the National Anthem... then I realized how important it was for you guys and how important it is for you."
Henry also said that the way the team played inspired him, and he believes it all stemmed from how proud they were to represent the nation and wear the colors of their country.
"It was actually outstanding," Henry revealed. "I will always remember that."
Former Swedish soccer sensation Zlatan Ibrahimović echoed Henry's sentiments.

"You made me emotional," Ibrahimović said. "That doesn't happen every day."
If the USMNT can channel the success from Friday's domination over Paraguay and couple that with Lalas' raw emotion and love for his home country, this team will be hard to beat in 2026.
Good for Henry sharing this story and for Lalas, who was comfortable enough to recount such a personal moment.

Rod Stewart called 'tone-deaf' for attending World Cup game a day canceling concert due to health issues
Rob Stewart was slammed by fans for jetting off to attend Scotland's FIFA World Cup match in Boston less than a day after the rocker canceled a concert in California due to health issues.
On Friday night, the 81-year-old singer called off his scheduled concert at North Island Credit Union Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, California near San Diego just 40 minutes ahead of the show's start time.
In a statement to the San Diego Union-Tribune, the event's producer Live Nation explained that the concert was canceled because Stewart had a recurrence of a sinus infection. However, Stewart's team later told the outlet that the Grammy Award winner was suffering from an acute upper respiratory infection that led to laryngitis.

Stewart apologized for the cancelation in posts that he shared to his Instagram Stories on Friday night, including a photo of himself on empty Chula Vista stage while crew members dismantled the concert set around him.
"Well, here I am in beautiful Chula Vista as the stage is being taken down around me. Following treatment, I’m feeling much better, but my voice is not," he wrote, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.
"I’m very disappointed and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience to my fans. I did everything I could to make the show happen tonight, but unfortunately it just wasn’t possible. I will do my utmost to reschedule."
On Saturday, Stewart shared a video in which he was seen on his private jet with his sons Liam, 31 and Alastair, 20.

"Me and the boys off to Boston to see our Scotland 🏴 in the World Cup! No Scotland no party," he wrote in the caption.

In the clip, Stewart, who is a longtime supporter of Scotland's national soccer team, noted that the match marked the country's first World Cup appearance since 1998.
"It's been 28 years, so these kids, I've told them about it but they've never been," he said. "I've been to seven World Cups."
"So we want them to get through to the next round and I'll die a happy man," Stewart added with a smile. "That would be great. C'mon Scotland!"
Stewart ended the clip by dancing in his seat and joining Liam and Alastair as they repeatedly sang "No Scotland, no party!"
The "Maggie May" hitmaker was later seen with his sons as they watched Scotland play Haiti from the stands at Boston Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts. Stewart was pictured smiling, cheering and enjoying what appeared to be a couple of beverages during the game.
ROD STEWART CANCELS SECOND CONCERT ON DOCTOR'S ORDERS
However, Stewart's video and appearance at the match sparked backlash with some fans venting their outrage in the comments section of his post.
"This feels rather disingenuous, especially after your cancellation last night. Too ill to perform but okay to fly across the country for soccer?" wrote one Instagram user.
"So you blew off all the people in San Diego that wanted to see you in concert but able to go to the world cup I see! I'm a huge fan of yours but I don't think that's cool," added another.
ROD STEWART HAS ‘NO DESIRE TO RETIRE’ DESPITE ANNOUNCING FAREWELL TOUR
"I understand that shows sometimes have to be canceled, and if there was a legitimate reason, most fans would have accepted it," one fan commented. "What’s hard to accept is seeing you apparently celebrating on a plane with friends less than 24 hours after thousands of people were sent home disappointed in San Diego."
"Many traveled long distances, paid for hotels, parking, tickets, and took time off work to be there," the social media user continued. "Then to see you flying across the country for a soccer game the very next morning makes the situation feel even more tone deaf. The cancellation was frustrating enough, but this comes across as incredibly dismissive of the fans who support your career. A little empathy and awareness would have gone a long way."
However, others came to Stewart's defense, noting that his illness affected his voice, not necessarily his ability to travel.

"Get a grip people," one fan wrote. "I know it’s disappointing and frustrating when someone cancels a show but that doesn’t mean their life, especially with their family, also stops. You can clearly hear in this video he is unwell by his voice and people have said he was unwell in previous concerts. I am a life long fan of Rod’s and I wouldn’t want him performing if it could possibly mean irreparable damage to his voice!!
"There’s a difference between watching a game and performing for two hours. Just saying," another commented.

A representative for Stewart told the San Diego Union-Tribune that they had spoken with the singer's physician Friday night and stood by the reason given for the show's cancellation.

The spokesperson told the outlet that the singer underwent "a few rounds of steroids and treatment in the hopes of being able to perform."
"He was there [at the venue] but we had to text because he had no voice," the representative added. "Evidently, [the steroids] kicked in but too late for the show."
Live Nation said Ticketmaster customers would automatically receive refunds following the cancellation, while fans who purchased tickets through third-party resale platforms were advised to contact their original seller regarding reimbursement.
The Chula Vista cancellation was the latest health-related setback for Stewart, who is currently on his "One Last Time" tour. In May, Stewart axed two Las Vegas residency performances while recovering from a sinus infection and undergoing vocal rest.
