US House Speaker Mike Johnson says Washington’s strike against Iran’s nuclear sites “serves as a clear reminder to our adversaries and allies that President Trump means what he says.”

“The president gave Iran’s leader every opportunity to make a deal, but Iran refused to commit to a nuclear disarmament agreement,” Johnson tweets.
