Welcome to meet the press now. I'm Kelly O'Donnell in Washington. We will dive into results from last night's primary elections in just a moment, with some key matchups now set in the

battle for control of Congress and two major races for California governor and Los Angeles

The American people are not stupid, Mr. Secretary.

We all know that this war is not over.

Just last night, the U.S. and Iran exchanged fire again, this time over at Karg Island.

We still have not reached a deal, despite the president's promise that a deal is right around the corner.

Today, in an interview with the New York Post, President Trump offered

little clarity on his negotiating strategy, or how long the naval blockade with Iran will remain in
