• President Trump was reported by Fox news Monday to be nearing a decision to resume military strikes on Iran to force Iran's leader to accept his terms. He doesn't know who's in charge. Only two people have a legal right to call themselves the Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khameini and Diana Ross.
