Governor Hochul Signs Legislative Package to Extend Protections Against Human Trafficking in NYS

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.
