Trump pulls Vance from Iran talks amid midterm clash over war

Trump declared in a social media announcement on Thursday that the United States no longer needs a deal with Iran.

He also instructed Vance to redirect his focus towards investigating alleged fraud and crime in Democratic-led states.

"We don't need a deal with Iran. We've got their money... and we've got their strait," he posted to Truth Social.

The shake-up follows steep Republican losses in the November midterm elections, which Vance publicly blamed on the ongoing conflict with Iran.
