Trump just put Iran on notice again. The U.S. military has launched a new wave of strikes today, and Trump is warning that power plants and bridges could be knocked out next week unless the regime makes a deal. Iran has spent years testing American resolve by shutting down the Strait of Hormuz and backing attacks on our allies and shipping lanes. Weakness and endless talks only encouraged more aggression. Now we’re seeing real pressure in action — nightly airstrikes, a naval blockade, and a clear ultimatum on critical infrastructure. Trump’s strategy is straightforward: degrade Iran’s military capabilities first, then hold the country's power grid and bridges at risk to force negotiations from strength. This isn’t about regime change or sending in ground troops. It’s about protecting the free flow of commerce and showing adversaries that America means business when our core interests are threatened.Pat also covers: Senator Mitch McConnell joins Pat live in the studio.
