This is not true. There are no credible reports or official records of President Trump "confessing" that the U.S. Navy was "completely overwhelmed" or "almost wiped out" by a massive Iranian swarm attack.
The claim appears to be a misinterpretation or fabrication circulating on social media, notably shared by accounts like Shaun King on X. In reality, President Trump's public statements regarding the ongoing conflict with Iran in March 2026 have consistently maintained the opposite narrative.

The SC said:
URGENT | Leak of the proposed agreement points between the two parties: The United States demands from Iran the following:
- Dismantling Natanz, Fordow, and Isfahan
- Permanently halting uranium enrichment. And handing over all uranium to the International Atomic Energy Agency
- Limiting the range and quantity of ballistic missiles- Completely severing ties with Hezbollah, the Houthis, and Hamas
- Fully reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Now.
- A ceasefire for 30 days starting immediately
In return, the United States will work to ease sanctions and enable the possibility of civilian nuclear cooperation.

Iran demands from the United States the following:
- Immediately halting all strikes and assassinations
- Providing binding guarantees against launching any further attacks
- Paying war reparations
- Recognizing Iran's sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz
- No interference with the nuclear program, missiles, or proxies. All options are on the table
- Withdrawing U.S. bases from the region
- Stopping hostile actions against Iran and Hezbollah
- Lifting sanctions

These two sides describe two entirely different wars; The United States wants to weaken Iran. And Iran wants the United States to leave and foot the bill for the visit.

The gap between the two sides makes Grand Canyon look like a hairline crack. If they stick to these demands, this will be another decade long war.

In this episode of Photo Evidence, we break down that imagery to understand what was actually hit, and how effective these attacks really were.

From US air bases in Jordan and Saudi Arabia to radar sites in Qatar, naval headquarters in Bahrain, and a command post in Kuwait, the images reveal the scale and precision of Iran’s response.

By comparing before-and-after imagery, we assess what these strikes tell us about Iran’s strategy, and what they may reveal about the balance of power in the war so far.

by this time israel should have been taken out of the equation by iran, why is iran playing the cat and mouse game with the Epstein coalition. it is time to walk the talk and not make threats which are then used by the Epstein media as baseless rhetoric.

Its not that easy when the super power is constantly bombing you 24/7. Whatever Iran has achieved is surprising specially after 40+ years of sanctions.

Though one more thing.
  • I don't think Israel/US are running low on interceptors.
  • In 12 day war last year, Iran lunched 500+ missiles over Israel.
  • Israel/US must be expecting much more launches from Iran in this conflict.
  • Israel/US must have prepared better than last year's 12 day war.
  • But in this conflict Iran has only managed to launch half of what they launched last year.
  • Or may be I am wrong and Israel/US may be were expecting to finish off the job in few hours?

Iran's military capability is essentially throwing rockets around, that's it. Their ground troops are worthless and against a foe like the US will most likely be wiped out if they attempted anything more than guerilla tactics.

I am very grateful that you allowed me to see how the British understand Iran's military capabilities.

When Israel attacked the Gaza Strip, despite using advanced weapons and superior troops, Israel did not occupy Gaza.

The United States and Israel have air and naval supremacy. The United States and Israel used advanced weapons to invade Iran, with the United States claiming to have destroyed 90% of Iran's missile launch facilities. However, Iran still continues to attack military targets of the United States and Israel.

Although the United States has advanced weapons and firepower advantages, and the United States possesses air superiority, Afghanistan and Vietnam also used guerrilla warfare to defeat the US military.

The army is the branch of the military with the smallest gap in strength. Iran's army has extensive experience in mountain warfare. When the United States participated in World War II, China had already been resisting Japanese invaders for ten years, and Germany's elite forces were in the Soviet Union. The US military can only bully some weaker countries. The countries the United States has invaded include North Korea, Lebanon, Vietnam, Grenada, Libya, Panama, Liberia, Iraq, Somalia, and Kosovo.

In the Korean War, we saw MacArthur's command ability and the tactical level of the US military. For a safe retreat, the US military fired flares over the positions of British troops.

At the prisoner-of-war sports games hosted by our country, British prisoner George Green won the 1500-meter racewalking championship, and the British prisoner team won the football competition. British military prisoners performed the play "Hartley's Holiday."
 
I talked to a source in Beijing yesterday about news reports that China was selling Iran various chips and missiles. He would not confirm specifics. But what he said was very interesting. To China, what is happening in the Persian Gulf is a laboratory of their policies of sea denial:

1) He said that China is collecting field data from Iranian conflict zones to identify the radar and thermal signatures of American, and weapons.
2) They are waiting to see how Iran's chokepoint warfare in the Strait of Hormuz works. They plan to use similar swarming tactics near their shores and around Taiwan.
3) China managed the Iranian transition to the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System. This allows China to evaluate the performance and precision of its encrypted military signals in a contested electronic warfare environment.
4) By providing intelligence, radar, and electronic warfare support, China can assess the effectiveness of its technology against Western platforms like the F-35 without direct military engagement. He hinted that this has been more successful than expected.

The bottom line (this is my interpretation and not what my source said): is China is loving this war. It is not only weakening the US and depleting their missile and interceptor stocks, but is also giving China examples of what works and allowing it to test its weapon systems while killing American soldiers and destroying American equipment. All without putting a single Chinese soldier at risk.
