Trump administration designates #Iran's IRGC, including its Quds Force, as a "Foreign Terrorist Designation" (FTO).
#BREAKING
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo:
The IRGC plans & executes terror campaigns all around the world.
The IRGC will take its rightful place in the list of terrorist groups it supports, such as the Lebanese Hezbollah.
#BREAKING
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo:
The IRGC backs the murderous Assad regime.
Our designation makes clear to the world that the regime in #Iran not only supports terror groups but also engages in terrorism itself.

#BREAKING
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Cairo:
America remained silent during the 2009. The mullahs viciously cracked down the Iranian people and America then remained silent.
The real new beginning begins.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Cairo:
America is alongside our regional partners to confront Islamic fundamentalism.
U.S. President Donald Trump did not remain silent when Syria's Bashar Assad used chemical weapons.
#Iran's regime dreams of domination in the Middl East.
U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Cairo:
President Trump has reversed our wilful blindness. We have embarked on a pressure campaign against Tehran's mullahs.
We have joined the Iranian people in calling for freedom & accountability.
We are counteracting Iran's agendas.

On Assignment with Richard Engel

First up: the inside story of a daring raid by Israel’s intelligence agency, the Mossad, in Tehran. Part bank heist, part “Mission Impossible,” the intel seized was key to @realDonaldTrump’s decision to pull out of the #Iran nuclear deal.
When @realDonaldTrump withdrew from the #Iran deal, he cited the Israeli docs as proof that the Iranian promise to abandon nuclear weapons was “a lie.” Just days before, Israeli PM @netanyahu had revealed the intel to the world, with the words “Iran lied.”
Leading Mossad expert @ronenbergman says Tehran is “the hardest place for Mossad to act.” He estimates #Israel has “many dozens” of local dissidents working as operatives inside Iran.

BREAKING: The White House has said that US President #Trump is canceling his upcoming South America trip to remain in the US "to oversee the American response to Syria." - @NBCNews
This sounds like the US is planning to strike #Syria and Trump will remain in the US to closely monitor responses by #Russia. This is terrible.
BREAKING - British forces are now mobilizing at their bases in #Cyprus for strikes against #Syria. It appears very likely that the US, France and U.K. will strike Syria in the next 24 hours. This is dreadful.

Trump Hotels' website still lists Trump SoHo New York among its properties in the Our Hotels menu. Select its name though to access its page and there's a message about it being renamed
