In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First—President Trump is now weighing an initial military strike on Iran — a limited attack designed to force Tehran into a nuclear deal, but one that could escalate quickly if it fails to extract compromises from the mullahs. Later in the show—Russian bombers are back near Alaska, and U.S. fighter jets were forced into the skies on Thursday to meet them. The aircraft never crossed into American airspace, but the timing comes as tensions spike in the Middle East. I’ll bring you the details.
