Both Iran and the U.S. are claiming control over the Strait of Hormuz, the waterway where prior to the war about 20% of the world's oil, or over 100 tankers, passed through each day. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth branded this mission "Project Freedom" and described the U.S. as having a "red, white and blue dome over the strait.” Meanwhile, voters in Ohio and Indiana are headed to the polls on Tuesday in primaries that offer a temperature check on President Trump's second term, with gerrymandering at the center of both elections. And Delta announced they'll stop serving free snacks and drinks on flights under 349 miles unless you're sitting in first class, impacting about 500 flights per day starting May 19th.
