Piers Morgan pleads with Trump as ‘all signs’ point to admin launching ‘huge’ operation

British media personality Piers Morgan pleaded with President Donald Trump Saturday morning amid growing speculation that his administration was preparing to launch a massive operation overseas this weekend, one that Morgan said, if carried out, would unleash “mayhem.”

“All the signs are pointing to the U.S. and Israel launching another huge attack on Iran,” Morgan wrote Saturday morning in a social media post on X. “I urge President Donald Trump not to do it. This war’s been damaging enough without yet more mayhem being unleashed.”

While the United States and Iran have been in a ceasefire since early April – albeit, one that has been violated repeatedly – Trump abruptly “cancelled his weekend plans in New Jersey and returned to Washington” on Friday, fueling speculation that his administration was preparing to renew hostilities with Tehran. In turn, Iran has closed its airspace over the western part of the country and postponed all flights in the region until Monday out of fear of an attack from the United States.

Right-wing influencer Laura Loomer, an influential figure in the White House and self-proclaimed “proud Islamophobe,” also suspected the Trump administration was planning to attack Iran this weekend. However, as a diehard supporter of Trump, the idea of the United States launching another wave of attacks on Iran – the first of which in late February commenced with the bombing of an Iranian girls’ elementary school that killed 156 civilians, including 120 children – left her excited rather than concerned.

“Part of me wants to go to sleep, but then I feel like if I sleep I will miss the Iranian regime getting glassed for threatening to assassinate Ivanka Trump,” Loomer wrote in a social media post on X, referencing an alleged assassination plot reported on by The New York Post. “Tough decisions.”
