It comes as the USS Tripoli, carrying more than 3,500 sailors and marines, arrives in the region. It's not clear where they're headed, but there's mounting speculation. Plans could include seizing strategic sites like Iran's Karg Island. As The Washington Post reports, the Pentagon is preparing for weeks of ground operations in Iran, though no final decision has been made.

Meantime, Tehran continues to severely restrict the Strait of Hormuz, allowing only a few ships through, including 20 Pakistani vessels. There's also now growing fears the Houthis could shut down a strait in the Red Sea, disrupting global shipping even more.

They say they're fighting for democracy and strongly stand against a king-like structure when it comes to government. These demonstrators are against decisions made by President Trump and his administration on issues from the war with Iran to immigration enforcement. A range of issues came up during a news conference right before the march, and those issues include several different items.

81.286 - 93.117 Unknown

Overall, we saw some recognizable faces like Reverend Al Sharpton, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and actor Robert De Niro standing behind organizers and community activists.

That is Fox 5 New York's Stephanie Bertini. At least two people arrested and two officers injured after the Department of Homeland Security says a thousand rioters surrounded a federal building in Los Angeles Saturday night.

Airports continue seeing brutally long lines as Congress continues to squabble over funding for the Department of Homeland Security. Lawmakers now in recess for two weeks.

147.768 - 167.616 Madison Scarpino

I've spoken to a lot of people who just don't want to fly out of here in Atlanta right now. They don't want to take the risk. But we're also seeing ICE agents here for the last few days helping out TSA as they focus on more of the specialty screening. And as those agents missed yet another paycheck yesterday. Good news for people flying out of Atlanta, not too many lines here today.

167.676 - 188.359 Madison Scarpino

However, that is not the case in places like Baltimore. Lines starting outside of the terminal, likely a lot of travelers worried they're going to miss their flights, and they're angry. And this all comes as Congress still cannot come to an agreement to fund DHS. And President Trump and DHS says that TSA workers could see money in their bank accounts as soon as Monday.

188.339 - 211.024 Angelo Bavaro

That is Fox's Madison Scarpino. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky sitting down for an exclusive interview with Fox's Matt Finn. He explained how Russia is arming Iran to break up alliances in the Middle East. Russia will divide Europe in any way. Now we see like Russia is helping Iranian regime. Iranian regime will attack Middle East countries.

Chapter 3: How are protests in the U.S. responding to the Iran war?

251.081 - 267.992 Angelo Bavaro
