Trump was itching to strike Iran for months: MS NOW

President Donald Trump's justification for the Iran war, that Iranian missiles posed an imminent threat to America, was contradicted by MS NOW's Jackie Alemany on Thursday morning. During a White House medal ceremony on Monday, Trump claimed Iran "would soon have had missiles capable of reaching our beautiful America." However, Alemany reported that a White House source revealed Trump had been eager to strike Iran for at least a month and a half, dating back to conversations at Mar-a-Lago. Alemany characterized the war as driven by personal motivation rather than substantive national security concerns, describing it as Trump wanting to settle a score and build his legacy. She noted bipartisan congressional opposition exists but falls short of Senate passage or likely House support. The reporting suggests Trump's missile threat narrative masks a pre-existing desire for military conflict.

Stunning upset: outsider sheriff to defeat powerful North Carolina GOP leader

North Carolina Senate leader Phil Berger, one of the state's most powerful Republicans, faces a historic political collapse after trailing Rockingham County Sheriff Sam Page by just two votes in Tuesday's primary.

Page, raising only $45,000, ran as an anti-establishment outsider, arguing Berger had become too comfortable in Raleigh and too insulated from constituents while serving the donor class. The razor-thin margin virtually guarantees legal challenges. In a year when political establishments face voter backlash, Page's populist message resonated. The winner of this Republican primary in the right-leaning district is expected to win November's general election.
