Trump shuts down Jake Tapper after CNN host tries to hijack interview with Iran question
President Trump has swiftly shut down Jake Tapper after the CNN host pivoted to Iran during a phone interview about Lindsey Graham's death. Tapper asked whether Iran had closed the Strait of Hormuz as tensions flared after renewed US military strikes. Trump brushed the question aside, replying that the waterway was open before telling Tapper to stick to the interview's purpose. "Don't talk about it. Talk about the reason that you asked me to speak," Trump fired back.

Iran war looms large over Trump administration ahead of vital midterm elections
Sky News contributor Kristin Tate argues the conflict with Iran is "casting a shadow" over the Trump administration ahead of the US midterms. “The war in Iran has really dominated discussions here on the ground in America, and particularly among Trump’s base, they want to see this wrapped up,” Ms Tate told Sky News host Jaimee Rogers. “People are kind of done with it, especially because Trump campaigned on not starting any new wars and focusing on domestic issues and strengthening the country from within. “If he wants to remain strong, especially going into the midterm elections this fall, which are very important for Republicans, this war in Iran needs to be wrapped up.”
