War 'Very Close to Over'

Disturbing sexual misconduct allegations force two politicians out of congress within minutes of each other. Last night, California Democrat Eric Swalwell and Texas Republican Tony Gonzalez announced they will resign amid bipartisan calls to expel them from the House. The allegations follow a similar pattern: Two men in positions of power allegedly using that power to engage in inappropriate relationships with aides, subordinates and/or young women starting out and trying to make their way in politics.

Power, Proximity and Fallout

Diplomacy isn't working, so President Trump is trying to cut Iran off from the world. A US military blockade on all Iranian ports and coastal areas is now in effect. The president announced the move over the weekend after 21 hours of peace talks in Pakistan ended without a deal. The idea is to put more financial pressure on the regime by blocking Iran from selling its oil, at least publicly. Iranian leaders are shrugging it off. The speaker of Iran's parliament, who helped lead their negotiations over the weekend, responded: “Soon you'll be nostalgic for $4 to $5 gas.”

Tensions in the Strait: U.S. and Iran on the Brink

JD Vance heads to Pakistan for crucial talks with Iran. Can the VP steer the US out of war? He's joined by Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. If all goes well, it's a moment that could end this war. Or if it goes badly, it's a moment that could end the tenuous ceasefire. "If the Iranians are willing to negotiate in good faith, we're certainly willing to extend the open hand. If they're going to try to play us, then they're going to find that the negotiating team is not that receptive."

'Ad-Vance-ing' Peace Talks with Iran

We start today's show with a ceasefire deal that seems precarious at best, given the confusion over what the US and Iran actually agreed to. The bottom line is that Iran still has a grip on the strait of Hormuz, while Israel continues bombing Hezbollah in Lebanon. A possible light at the end of the tunnel: Moments before we came on the air, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said he would open direct negotiations with Lebanon, though he didn't promise to end the Israeli bombardment.

Deal or No Deal?

It's been just hours since President Trump announced a two-week ceasefire with Iran. But that temporary truce is looking fragile at best. Moments ago, an Iranian news agency reported Tehran halted oil tankers traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Reopening the strait to commerce, of course, was a key part of the deal. Plus, one of Iran's demands in exchange was that Israel end its bombardment of Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. But the Israelis say they never agreed to that.

As US and Iran Each Claim Victory, World Holds its Breath

The clock is ticking toward President Trump's 8pm ET deadline for Iran to make a deal that he deems sufficient or face death and destruction. This morning, the president took what was already a series of profane and stark warnings to a new apocalyptic level. His exact words: "A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen. But it will. It probably will."

Trump Threatens Iran With 'Total Annihilation'

Senate Republicans were feeling bullish about their plan to end the 40-day shutdown that's wreaking havoc on airports across the country. But over the last 24 hours, both President Trump and senate Democrats pushed back. So unless something changes again and fast, those massive TSA lines won't clear up any time soon. Of course, this political stalemate is a huge inconvenience for travelers. But for TSA agents working without pay, the situation is dire.
