Let's get to the news and what seems to be a stalemate in a war that's been going on for seven weeks and counting.
Quick reminder, it's now been 43 days since Trump first declared victory in Iran.
Now we are on week seven and counting.
So we're recording this mid-afternoon East Coast time on Thursday, a little earlier than usual.
And Trump is about to do an event in the Oval Office where he may take questions.
Our producers are monitoring the situation.
Reid, you're going to give us a wave, a big wave.
It's going to be big news, though.
But for now, Trump extended the ceasefire on Tuesday, didn't put a new deadline on it.
And it's unclear if we still have a ceasefire because then Iran sees two ships in the Strait of Hormuz and the U.S.
has seized a couple tankers, including on Thursday, a tanker of Iranian oil.
And there's still no word on whether there will be another round of negotiations.
Vance just sitting at the airport waiting to get the call so he can jump on a plane.
Trump is still posting through it.
This is all just today, claiming that, quote, we have total control of the Strait, which we obviously don't, as evidenced in part by his next post, that he's ordering the Navy to, quote, shoot and kill any boat laying mines there, which he claims is already happening, but wants it to continue at a, quote, tripled up level.
That's technical speak reacts.
