Katty Kay

It's the little gold clasp.

I like that.

Welcome to The Rest Is Politics U.S.

with me, Katya Kay, in Washington, where we're missing the king, Anthony.

The city is feeling less regal at the moment.

But Donald Trump is trying to fix that, so we'll talk about that later.

I heard via somebody that the palace is happy.

Yes, so good.

The king is happy.

He's at home.

Donald Trump is less happy.

He's also at home, but trying to make Washington look a lot more regal.

We're going to talk about that.

First of all, we're going to talk about the war in Iran and the latest.

A little bit of confusion this morning about who's shooting at who.

And then in the second half, we're going to talk about Democrats and the Maine and Michigan Senate primaries, which show different sides of democratic populism at work, which is kind of interesting.

But let's start with where we are this morning on Iran.

There was some breaking news.

I just came back from Morning Joe and there's some breaking news about Iranian ships, Iranians possibly firing on American ships and a UAE marked tanker and some confusion about what exactly happened.

But I think we are in a moment where Donald Trump is stuck between war and peace.
