29 MAY 26 SITREP
1. Trump Iran Nuclear Deal Negotiations At The Situation Room
President Trump was behind closed doors in the Situation Room conducting active nuclear deal negotiations with Iran, with the session lasting approximately three hours.
With negotiations ongoing, an Iranian official came out and publicly stated that an agreement with the United States had not yet been finalized.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio was simultaneously meeting with Pakistani officials while Trump remained in the Situation Room, with Trump stating that the final determination was about to be made.
Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) elements continued launching drone strikes, ballistic missiles, and deploying mine-laying boats during the active negotiation period, while the Supreme Leader of Iran was described as being kept under lock and key due to an active assassination threat against him.
2. Romanian Swatting Ring Leader Thomasz Szabo Sentenced To 48 Months In Federal Prison
Thomasz Szabo, 27, also known as Plank, Jonah, and Cypher, founded and led an online community that engaged in a pattern of bomb threats and swatting starting in late 2020, targeting members of Congress, cabinet officials, federal law enforcement heads, churches, journalists, and media figures across the United States.
Szabo was extradited from Romania to the United States in November 2024 and pleaded guilty in June 2025 to one count of conspiracy and one count of threats involving explosives, with federal prosecutors having requested a 57-month sentence before District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson issued a 48-month term followed by three years of supervised release.
During the swatting spree spanning from around Christmas 2023 through early January 2024, subordinate members of Szabo's group carried out attacks on at least 25 members of Congress or their family, six then-current or former Executive Branch officials, 13 then-current or former federal law enforcement officials, members of the federal judiciary, 27 then-current or former state government officials or family members, four religious institutions, and multiple members of the media, with one subordinate bragging to Szabo that he had conducted 25 or more swattings in a single day and generated $500,000 in taxpayer costs in just two days.
US Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro stated that members of Congress, cabinet officials, the heads of federal law enforcement agencies, churches, and journalists were all targeted with swatting calls and fake bomb threats designed to send armed police to their doors, and that Szabo was extradited from Romania to face justice in an American courtroom and has reaped the consequences of his actions.
3. Antifa Network Targets ICE In Newark
Antifa was recently filmed in Newark, New Jersey targeting ICE, prompting the question on what should be done about the network as a whole.
As a reminder, the Trump administration has classified Antifa as both a domestic and foreign terrorist organization, operating through decentralized funding, bail networks, Signal chats, Indivisible conference calls, and ICE Watch groups active in cities including Minneapolis rather than a traditional command structure comparable to ICE or Hamas.
To note, a forthcoming working group on international Antifa was organized in response to evidence that Antifa networks travel freely between the United States and Europe and that European Antifa anarchists conduct attacks inside the United States.
Sanctuary cities and states that declare themselves immune from federal law enable Antifa to operate freely, and those cities should be declared under insurrection given that people are dying and the network continues to grow more radical without serious federal intervention.
FINAL WORD
While Trump negotiates with Iran, Szabo just got 48 months for running a swatting network that terrorized Congress, and Antifa is on camera targeting ICE in Newark. The opposition is organized, aggressive, and operating on every front. This is not the time for us to look away. We see the pattern and we must act accordingly.
On today's episode of Human Events Daily, I covered Trump's active nuclear negotiations with Iran inside the Situation Room and Antifa being caught on camera targeting ICE in Newark, New Jersey.
