It’s flying under the release of the Robert Mueller report, but it’s big news: President Trump on Saturday declared victory over ISIS in Syria and Iraq — you know, the “JV team” — saying that 100 percent of the “caliphate” had been liberated by U.S. and coalition forces.
President @realDonaldTrump promised to destroy ISIS’ fraudulent caliphate and he delivered on that today. Read his statement here on the territorial defeat, now 100% complete, and his commitment to ensure this evil won’t return. pic.twitter.com/DvOTauCAac

“They are losers and will always be losers” — classic Trump right there.
The territory ISIS once held in Iraq and Syria has been liberated. We congratulate the US military, SDF, and the @coalition on this incredible achievement. There is much work left to do to ensure the threat from radical Islamic terrorism is fully and finally defeated. #DefeatISIS

U.S.-backed forces say they have defeated ISIS as the last stronghold has been freed. NBC’s @MattMcBradley reports from Syria. pic.twitter.com/VMxbCB0pws

This is a tremendous accomplishment. It's not the end of ISIS the terror org, but it is the end of one of the most vicious, vile, and murderous regimes in the world. It's also bipartisan — an offensive begun under Obama is concluded under Trump: https://t.co/N7eLIBpO0v

Could we please file this under “Good” in President Trump’s file cabinet of accomplishments?
God bless the United States ??

Obama paved the path for ISIS.
Along with many other atrocities that played into the hands of the mullahs ruling #Iran.https://t.co/W3kgbQlnuy— Heshmat Alavi (@HeshmatAlavi) March 23, 2019
ISIS defeated! A really big deal. This is what happens when you let the guys in the field do what is needed to win rather than let Obama’s lawyer bureaucrats in DC call the shots. We’ve now understand full well how incompetent those bureaucrats really were on many levels. https://t.co/NdWPc5bHq4

From now on, the United States should be focused on #Iran 's mullahs
The #Iranian people want to overthrow the regime
The only solution to get rid of the mullahs' terror is to help the Iranian resistance and its brave people to bring down the rule of the mullahs#نوروز— navid belbas (@NabilBelbasi) March 23, 2019
Pulling out of the Iran deal was a good start …

Update:
We can’t confirm this, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that we doubt it:
Media bias alert:
On Friday, when the Mueller report was completed, ISIS’s last stronghold in Syria was also eliminated.
Since then, MSNBC has not covered ISIS’s defeat for a single minute, refusing to acknowledge this huge win for @realDonaldTrump and the world.
