Khaberni - U.S. President Donald Trump, in a post on Sunday, described the Democratic Party as the greatest enemy of the United States following the alleged defeat of Iran.
Trump wrote on his social network "Truth Social," expressing his thanks to the public for their attention: "Now, after Iran's defeat, the greatest enemy of America is the extremely incompetent leftist Democratic Party!"
Earlier, the Democratic minority leader in the U.S. House of Representatives, Hakeem Jeffries called for a change in America's governing regime, arguing that Trump and "Republican extremists" had waged a reckless and costly war in the Middle East that had already led to rising gasoline prices.
Earlier, "The Washington Post," quoting senior officials, reported that the Pentagon had asked the White House to approve sending a request to Congress for more than $200 billion in additional funding for the war on Iran.
According to it, the Pentagon aims to secure funding packages of this magnitude, which would far exceed the costs of the current massive aerial bombing campaign being waged by the administration, and instead aims to urgently increase the production of vital ammunition, whose consumption has risen sharply," she added.
Some White House officials doubt that Congress will approve the request from the U.S. Department of War.
The newspaper added that the Pentagon had presented several alternative financing proposals over the past two weeks.
On February 28, the United States and Israel began bombing targets in Iran, including Tehran, causing damage and civilian casualties. Iran, in turn, has launched retaliatory strikes on Israeli territory, as well as targeting U.S. military sites in the Middle East.
