As many Americans slept, the US military struck Iran<\/a> \u2014 sparking swift reactions from celebs and lawmakers.<\/p>\n

In a combined effort with Israel, a series of attacks was leveled against Iran. The initial attack happened close to the office of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei<\/a> in Tehran.<\/p>\n

The regime has, for months, refused to dismantle its nuclear program after weeks of negotiations. President Trump warned there would be consequences if a deal was not reached. \u201cIt\u2019s a very simple message. They will never have a nuclear weapon,\u201d\u00a0Trump said<\/a> in a video message posted on Truth Social.<\/p>\n

Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy was one of the first celebrities to chime in<\/a> after the attacks.<\/p>\n

I always laugh at yo-yo\u2019s who don\u2019t have the 1st clue what information the President had that forced this decision. Even politicians who despise him but were briefed on the situation seem to agree with this operation. I guess lotta podcasters know better. \ud83d\ude02. Gotta keep the\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cIran is a terror nation with a long history of some of the worst human rights atrocities in the world. Nobody disputes that fact.They hate Americans. They hate Israel. They hate all Jews. They hate the West. They would kill us all if given the chance. They just murdered tens of thousands of their own people. The rest of the Middle East is on our side. The Iranian people are on our side. It isn\u2019t that complicated to support our Troops and our country this morning. We are on the right side here. God Bless America,\u201d Portnoy added.<\/p>\n

Health guru and staunch Trump supporter Jillian Michaels also weighed in on the attacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all know President Trump declaring war means America\u2019s brave men and women putting on uniforms. It\u2019s moms, dads, and spouses holding their breath. It\u2019s the fate of the Iranian people hanging in the balance. Agree or not, pray for our troops and for the families who shoulder this burden at home. Pray for the people of Iran,\u201d she wrote on X.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe world has watched their suffering for decades: young women beaten to death for showing a strand of hair, dissidents tortured in secret prisons, protestors hanged from cranes, live rounds fired into crowds chanting \u201cfreedom.\u201d A regime that rapes, silences, and executes to cling to power,\u201d Michaels said.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 But if from this darkness comes liberation for millions, defanging the top funders of terror around the world, and a wider peace in the Middle East, history will mark it as a defining moment,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
