But the administration has been pretty tight-lipped about what other action the president wants to take.

Now, some have pointed out that the US doesn't actually have an aircraft carrier strike group in the Middle East right now, which would suggest

a military response is less likely.

But Senator Tom Cotton, the chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, told Hugh Hewitt Monday that the U.S.

military shouldn't be underestimated here.

Cotton also said that the Iranian regime seems weaker now than at any time since it took control in 1979.

He told reporters, quote, I assume that we are now witnessing the final days and weeks of this regime.

President Trump has been vocal over his desire to bring a quick end to the war in Ukraine, advocating for territorial concessions in a peace plan sent earlier this year.

In a reportedly tense call with European partners earlier this week, Trump urged British, French, and German partners to pressure Ukraine to accept that deal.

For his part, President Zelensky has been unwilling to accept any terms that cede territory to Russia.

Without those concessions, though, peace talks have thus far been unable to progress.

The campaign aired during a playoff game between the Toronto Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners.

The ad was developed by Ontario Premier Doug Ford's administration.

Trump took to Truth Social in response, saying, quote, the Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement which is fake, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about tariffs.

He added, quote, based on their egregious behavior, all trade negotiations with Canada are hereby terminated.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute says that it's now pursuing potential legal options, saying the ad misrepresents the presidential radio address, and that Ontario did not seek or receive permission to use and edit the remarks.

The FAA's temporary restrictions exclude operations supporting defense, security, and emergency missions.

House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized the Biden administration.
