Iran's Shadow War and Trump's Peace Push | Washington DC News

Iran claims drone strikes on U.S. targets in Kuwait as U.S. remains silent, while its Revolutionary Guard allegedly runs a $4 billion online gambling ring to skirt sanctions—and U.S. officials suspect Iranian hackers behind a Minnesota water system breach. The war’s economic fallout stalls U.S. growth, with Democrats leveraging war powers votes to pressure Republicans as public support fades, while oil giants prepare for record profits. Trump’s “Board of Peace” touts a secret Hamas disarmament deal in Gaza, though details are thin. Meanwhile, Trump may delay Attorney General Todd Blanche’s nomination until two GOP senators exit, linked to a revised IRS audit shield deal. And the administration is pressuring big tech to fund political projects—with Apple, Microsoft already paying up, and Elon Musk pledging $100M to GOP midterms.
