President Trump is set to meet with senior officials today as he weighs how to respond to anti-regime protests in Iran.

We report that the White House is considering a last-ditch offer from Iran to resume nuclear talks, an option backed by Vice President J.D.

Vance, while Trump is leaning toward military strikes.

Other options include launching cyber attacks or boosting anti-regime accounts online.

But the U.S.

didn't wait for today's meeting to dial up the pressure on Tehran.

Yesterday, Trump okayed 25 percent tariffs on countries that do business with Iran.

Journal reporter Gavin Bade told us that Turkey, India, Pakistan, and Armenia could be hard hit by those tariffs.

But it is China, Iran's top trading partner, that could be most affected.

Back in Iran, we report that a battle over information is intensifying, with Tehran dialing up efforts to jam Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet service and hunt down users.

Iranians have leaned heavily on the service, including to share videos of protests after the government throttled phone services and shut down most internet connections for the country's 90 million inhabitants last week.

Minnesota is suing U.S.

immigration officials in a bid to end what it calls an unlawful surge of federal agents in the state.

The suit, which names agencies including ICE and U.S.

Customs and Border Protection, as well as top officials including Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem,

alleges that agents have acted illegally while carrying out operations, sparking fear and distress among residents.

It also argues that the administration is using a sprawling welfare fraud scandal in the state as a pretext for the president to retaliate against his political opponents and sow discord in left-leaning cities.
