How is President Trump describing U.S. pressure and potential strikes on Iran?
President Trump talking tough with Iran, saying Tehran has one more chance to reach a deal or face severe consequences.
President Trump says he called off another round of airstrikes against Iran last night after Arab leaders called him and requested he do so. The president says this could be for the last time.
I want to give him every last chance before decapitation.
President Trump says U.S. forces were ready to launch another wave of airstrikes on Iran over the weekend.
We're going to hit them very hard yesterday. Very, very hard. Harder than any attack, I think I can say, General, from A point of knowledge, any attack since World War II.
Why did President Trump call off airstrikes and what did he say about blockades and surrender?
President Trump says the blockade of Iranian ports will remain and will not be lifted until there's a deal or, quote, total surrender.
Fox's Lucas Tomlinson. The Board of Peace official overseeing Gaza's post-war transition is met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussing a new disarmament deal with Hamas. President Trump announced the agreement as part of a broader ceasefire deal. President Trump calling on the Senate now to remain in D.C. and pass a voter ID law ahead of the November midterms. One that would require people to register to vote in a federal election and show identification at the voting booth.
Conservatives and President Trump are imploring members to stay in session to pass the Save America Act.
I think there's nothing more important than the Save America Act. I think they should stay. They do what they want, but I think they should stay.
But that's not the plan. It's about the math. Two earlier efforts to pass the Save America Act failed to get a simple majority, plus 60 votes are necessary to break a filibuster. President Trump uprated Senate Majority Leader John Thune. The president begged Thune to convince the Senate to take action, but Thune is resisting. He wants members to go home and campaign.
Fox's chat program. America's listening to Fox News. U.S. weapons makers are ramping up production of missile interceptors.
Northrop Grumman and Lockheed Martin signed framework agreements with the Pentagon to expand production of Patriot and THAAD missile interceptor components. The agreements are intended to triple and quadruple production for each of the anti-missile defense systems and stabilize supply chains. Last week, the Army awarded Lockheed Martin a nearly $60 billion contract to produce more Patriot interceptor missiles. Some members of Congress have raised concerns about the current stockpile of U.S. missiles and interceptors amid the ongoing conflict with Iran.
At the White House, Jared Halpern, Fox News.
The 20 states, along with the District of Columbia, sued to keep the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program from gaining access to personal information. The plaintiffs subjected to an agency rule that would allow the program to share details, such as immigration status and social security numbers, as well as other personal facts, with other government agencies or even private groups. New York Attorney General Letitia James, in a statement, accused the administration of weaponizing people's personal information. Earlier this year, a judge said the Trump administration could not withhold the agency's funding from Democratic-controlled states. Grinnell Scott, Fox News.
Some residents have returned to devastated neighborhoods in eastern Washington state only to find their homes leveled by wildfires that broke out over the weekend. At least 700 buildings have reportedly been destroyed. And the Federal Aviation Administration has now approved the smallest model of Boeing's MAX jetliners for commercial service.
