Trump is speaking now, flanked by Pence, Pompeo, Esper and military leaders. "As long as I am president of the United States, Iran will never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. Good morning," he begins.
Trump says Americans should be "extremely grateful and happy," because there were "no casualties" in the Iranian attack last night. "Only minimal damage was sustained at our military bases."
Trump says "Iran appears to be standing down," and that's a good thing for everyone involved and for the world.
Trump calls Soleimani "the world's top terrorist." He outlines Soleimani's resume of killing. "In recent days he was planning new attacks on American targets, but we stopped him," he says, again providing no specifics.
Trump says "we continue to evaluate options in response to Iranian aggression." In the meantime, he says, he'll impose additional punishing sanctions on the Iranian regime, which will remain until Iran changes its behavior. (He doesn't immediately specify the sanctions.)
Trump repeats his usual exaggeration about Iran getting $150B from the Iran nuclear deal. It was a smaller amount of Iranian assets that were unfrozen (estimates have ranged widely, but many are $100B or less).
Trump said he's going to ask NATO to get "much more involved in the Middle East process." ?
Trump called on the other countries that are part of the Iran deal to "break away" from its "remnants." He also said the US doesn't "need" oil from the Middle East. That's subjective, but it continues to get a lot of it from there. Barrels per month from the Persian Gulf: 
Trump also keeps suggesting, with varying degrees of explicitness, that he is responsible for the US becoming the world's #1 energy producer. That happened in 2012, under Obama (whom he accuses of perpetrating a "war on American energy"), and has been the case every year since.
Trump said Iran's hostilities increased after the "foolish nuclear deal was signed in 2013." The substantive claim aside, it was signed in 2015.
He said the deal "expires shortly anyway." "Shortly" is subjective, but some provisions are indefinite, and others run to 2035, 2040.

From a previous fact check, here's a timetable for the expiry and non-expiry of some of the provisions of the Iran nuclear agreement.
$2 trillion is accurate: that's the total US military budget over the fiscal years 2017 through 2019 (the 2017 fiscal year was partly under Obama, partly under Trump). It'll be more than $700 billion in this just-started 2020 fiscal year as well.
Trump said, "3 months ago, after destroying 100 percent of ISIS and its territorial caliphate..." It is true 100% of the caliphate has been destroyed, not true 100% of ISIS has been destroyed. (This struck me as Trump misreading and doing his "and" non-correction, but who knows.)
