Today on the Playbook podcast, Donald Trump will hold a White House press conference to celebrate the rescue of the American service members whose aircraft was downed in Iran.

But attention will be fixed on what happens next following Trump's latest threat to attack civilian infrastructure.

And if you need something lighter than war, well, we have it via NASA.

Hello, I'm Jack Blanchard. And I'm Dasha Burns. It is Monday, April 6th.

Don't we love space? We just love space. I really want to talk about space and the moon.

But first, I'm sorry, we're going to talk about war because it is quite important.

President's going to hold a press conference at the White House at 1 o'clock today, as I'm sure lots of you already know, because he wants to talk about, not surprisingly, the astonishing rescue of those American service members that gripped the nation and indeed the world over the weekend. Dasher, this is happening at 1 o'clock, and I'm expecting, you know, it's not often we see the president himself in the White House briefing room. It's going to be quite a moment.

And yet, within hours of it taking place, the early hours of Sunday morning, within hours, Trump already moved the focus off it and onto the next thing with the, I don't even know how to describe the message he put on

social media yesterday morning containing his latest threat to Iran, but I cannot conceive of

any previous American president writing anything like that or even saying anything like that.

And here we are on what was Easter Sunday

infrastructure around that he says is going to be undertaken on Tuesday if he doesn't get a deal.

It was pretty remarkable to hear some of the networks actually read the language in that

post out loud. It was just so, like you said, astonishing to realize that this is actually coming
