Summary

Donald Trump says he’s “strongly considering” pulling out of NATO even as he claims Iran is begging for a ceasefire—something Tehran denies—while the U.A.E. signals it’s willing to join the fight to force the Strait of Hormuz open. Back home, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s vow to oppose military aid to Israel raises questions about a new Democratic standard on foreign policy. Meanwhile, cracks deepen in Trump’s base as Alex Jones declares it’s time to “cut bait,” saying the president is “in free fall."
