Upcoming Trump Book Sparks 'Intense Anxiety' in White House, Sources Reveal

A forthcoming book by New York Times journalists Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan is reportedly igniting "intense anxiety" within the White House.

Titled Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump, the book is set for release on June 23, as reported by Axios.

In March, Trump unleashed a tirade against Haberman, though the reasons behind his outburst were initially unclear.

“Maggot Hagerman, just another SLEAZEBAG writer for The Failing New York Times, insists on writing false stories about me, even though she fully knows and understands that the exact opposite of anything she says is usually the truth,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

He further threatened legal action, indicating he was “thinking of adding Maggot, and some of her ‘associates,’ into my Florida-based lawsuit against The Times which, very happily, seems to be proceeding nicely."

The book is expected to explore how Trump has altered the dynamics of executive power, suggesting that his second term resembles a foreign regime change operation more than a traditional presidency.

Haberman and Swan conducted approximately 1,000 interviews for this project, raising concerns among some Trump insiders, according to Axios.

While both journalists were on book leave when Trump made his Truth Social remarks, they were seen conversing with him at the White House just three days later.

Among the revelations in the book is a claim that Trump's senior advisers ridiculed the notion of "regime change" in Iran, with one advisor dismissing it as "bulls***," according to The New York Times.

This account details a meeting involving Trump, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman General Dan Caine, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and others, where they reportedly disregarded intelligence from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The intelligence presented by Netanyahu was divided into four components: a call for decapitation of Iran's supreme leader; neutralizing Iran's capacity to target neighboring nations; inciting an uprising among the Iranian populace; and ultimately, executing a total regime change to install a secular leader.

U.S. officials present at the meeting reportedly deemed the first two points feasible but considered the latter two to be mere fantasies.

Ratcliffe described Netanyahu's presentation with a single word: "farcical." Rubio echoed this sentiment, labeling it "bulls***," as detailed in the new book.

The White House has been approached for comment regarding these claims.
