Iran Strait Standoff and Trump’s Latest Moves | Washington DC News

Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is sparking global oil price spikes and military panic as Trump pushes economic pressure while Iran bets on a last-ditch diplomatic win—despite Trump’s own willingness to walk away from any nuclear deal. Meanwhile, Trump’s still insisting the Reflecting Pool “vandalism” was staged, causing legal and bureaucratic headaches, while behind the scenes, new cabinet picks take shape and his hair’s become meme fodder. On a lighter note: Reveler’s Hour’s summer menu is a hit, Chicago-style pizza is popping up, and even a Hoover vacuum beloved by a Senator has passed away at 49.
