"The President of the United States made seven claims in one hour, all seven of which were false," Ghalibaf wrote. "They did not win the war with these lies, and they will certainly not get anywhere in negotiations either."

Ghalibaf urged all to "read the real and accurate news of the negotiations in the recent interview of the Foreign Ministry spokesman," in which a Foreign Ministry spokesman claimed that Iran will not transfer its enriched uranium anywhere, contrary to earlier Trump claims that Iran had agreed to do so.

"Iran's enriched uranium is not going to be transferred anywhere; transferring uranium to the United States has not been an option for us," Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said during an interview with Iranian state media.

Trump earlier told Reuters that Iran's "nuclear dust" would be retrieved "very soon."

"We're going to get it together. We're going to go in with Iran, at a nice leisurely pace, and go down and start excavating with big machinery... We'll bring it back to the United States," Trump added."

"David, what about you? Trump saying that Iran has agreed to everything in the talks. Do you buy that?

Uh no, that's not credible. I mean, the Iranians are more likely to convert to Christianity."

As I watched Pres Trump's changing comments over the hours today, I had to wonder, what is the reality of what is happening?

Do we know what that reality is yet?

Have Iran and Pres Trump both said the same thing about a possible agreement?

Buy lots of oil stock over the weekend before it "skyrockets" again on Monday, when the BS meter pegs.
