OFFICIAL: What Former US Presidents Are Forever Forbidden to Do
Did you know that former US presidents have specific rules they must follow even after leaving office? The role of the president is incredibly powerful and influential, but it comes with privileges and strict limitations.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
These restrictions on being president do not simply end when they leave office, they still go through security and accountability, ensuring they maintain the integrity of the office long after their tenure has ended. Here are some surprising things that former US presidents can’t do.
They cannot drive themselves
One of the most surprising restrictions is that former presidents cannot drive themselves. This rule was put in place after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963.
Since then, security measures have become much stricter. Former presidents are always accompanied by a team of Secret Service agents who have specialized training in defensive and evasive driving. Because of this, you’ll never see a former president behind the wheel of a car.
They have personal device restrictions
Another surprising rule is that former presidents can’t buy their own phones, laptops, or tablets. This limitation exists to protect their privacy and security. Any new device they want must first receive approval from the Secret Service.
This was shown during Donald Trump’s presidency when he faced issues with device security, leading to hacks that compromised his personal communications.
No home deliveries
Imagine not being able to order anything online and have it delivered to your home. That’s the reality for former US presidents. The Secret Service keeps a close eye on all package deliveries. Before a package can reach a former president, its contents must be thoroughly examined at a secure location.
For example, in 2018, suspicious packages sent to former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama were intercepted before they could cause any harm.
No Ownership of gifts gotten in office
Former presidents also face restrictions regarding gifts they received while in office. Any gifts given to them during their presidency are considered public property and belong to the National Archives and Records Administration.
This means they cannot sell these gifts or make any profit from them. This rule ensures that items of historical significance remain accessible to the public and are not exploited for personal gain.
No foreign gifts and payments
Finally, former presidents are prohibited from accepting gifts or payments from foreign governments without the consent of Congress, thanks to the Emoluments Clause in the US Constitution. This rule helps prevent conflicts of interest and ensures that former presidents do not exploit their past position for financial gain from foreign entities.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>

Ahmad Khatami, President Erdogan Will Pay The Price For This Betrayal Against Muslims
According to Iran International English, a member of the Assembly of Experts of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ahmad Khatami, said, “Erdogan will pay the price for this betrayal against Muslims—one day, they [Muslims] will come for him. Israel’s influence in the region is a shared threat to the entire Islamic world, not just Iran.”
On the other hand, the President-Elect of the United States of America, Donald Trump, said that nobody knows what was going to happen with Syria following the fall of the administration of the President of Syria, Bashar Al-Assad, but he thought Turkey was going to hold the key to Syria. He also commended the administration of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey for partnering with the armed group opposing the Assad regime to oust the regime.
It was learned that following the fall of the administration of the President of Syria, Bashar al-Assad in Damascus where armed groups led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) took control of Damascus, many prominent people from the Middle East, especially the Islamic Republic of Iran, blamed the administration of the President of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan in partnering with the armed group opposing the Assad regime to oust the regime.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>

According to Khamenei: Israel Will Be Uprooted from Existence as They Attempt to Encircle Hezbollah Through Syria
Addressing a gathering of women, Khamenei emphasized that the so-called “axis of resistance” is far from defeated despite changes in the Syrian landscape. “The spirit of Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah is alive; the spirit of Sinwar is alive,” he declared, referring to the leaders of Hezbollah and Hamas who have been targeted by Israeli forces.
Khamenei’s remarks came amid chants from the crowd calling for the destruction of America and Israel, reinforcing the ideological commitment to resistance against perceived adversaries. He noted that while the bodies of leaders like Nasrallah and Sinwar may be gone, their beliefs endure, ensuring that their paths of resistance continue. “They are attacking Gaza and taking martyrs on a daily basis, but they are still standing, they are still resisting. Lebanon resists,” he stated, highlighting the ongoing conflict and resilience in the region.
The Iranian leader criticized Israel’s strategy, claiming that the Zionist regime believes it can prepare to encircle Hezbollah through operations in Syria. However, he countered this notion by asserting, “But the one who will be uprooted is Israel.” Khamenei’s comments reflect a broader narrative within Iranian leadership that frames Israel as increasingly vulnerable and isolated in its regional ambitions.
This rhetoric underscores Iran’s commitment to supporting groups like Hezbollah and Hamas as part of its strategy to counter Israeli influence in the Middle East. The speech also serves as a reminder of the volatile dynamics at play in the region, where military confrontations and ideological battles continue to shape political landscapes.
Khamenei’s assertions come at a time when tensions between Israel and Hezbollah remain high, with both sides preparing for potential escalations. Analysts suggest that Iran’s backing of Hezbollah is part of a larger effort to maintain its influence across the region, particularly in light of recent conflicts involving Israel.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
