- First up—President Trump is turning back to economic pressure on Iran, betting that a sustained naval blockade and financial squeeze can force Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Former deputy national security advisor Victoria Coates joins us with analysis.
- Later in the show—an international military presence could soon be deployed to southern Lebanon to help verify Hezbollah’s disarmament. David Daoud, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, joins us to break down the proposal and what it could mean for the conflict with Israel.
