Trump tells PBS News that 'lots of bombs start going off' if Iran ceasefire expires President Donald Trump told PBS News on Monday morning that if the ceasefire with Iran expires Tuesday, "then lots of bombs start going off." The statement came during a phone call with White House correspondent Liz Landers focused on the Iran war, as a U.S. delegation is preparing for more peace talks. Here are highlights from the call. PBS News: What happens if the ceasefire expires tomorrow evening? Trump: Then lots of bombs start going off. Is Iran still participating in the talks that will be happening in Islamabad? Will they still be there? I don't know. I mean, they're supposed to be there. We agreed to be there, although they say we didn't. But no, it was set up. And we'll see whether or not it's there.

[Jared] Kushner has a lot of business and financial interests in the Middle East region, from Saudi Arabia and other countries. Is it appropriate for him to be negotiating there, do you think?
