Trump Dismisses Iran Aid Concerns; Houthis Continue Saudi Attacks
Summary
President Trump dismisses reports of Russian and Chinese aid to Iran while facing bipartisan backlash over a deal to import Russian diesel. Intensifying Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia pressure the U.S. to intervene, and former U.K. PM Rishi Sunak calls Trump a symptom of global order breakdown. Domestically, federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home, and markets slide as AI enthusiasm wanes. Other news includes Pamela Anderson’s arrest, a Six Flags fatality, and Pope Leo’s hospital admission.
