Trump Launches Economic Pressure Campaign Against Iran

President Trump is escalating economic pressure on Iran, warning that countries providing financial or economic support to the Iranian regime could face consequences of their own. Ed Vitagliano and Fred Jackson discuss the administration’s strategy as oil continues moving through the Persian Gulf amid heightened tensions. The program also follows Karmelo Anthony’s effort to secure a new trial after his murder conviction in the killing of Austin Metcalf. The conversation turns to Florida Senate candidate Angie Nixon and criticism of her rent moratorium proposal and comments about Israel, along with Stephen Miller’s defense of President Trump’s immigration enforcement policies. Chris Woodward, Dr. Alex McFarland, and Steve Jordahl join the program as Today's Issues also addresses concerns over Flock license plate cameras, the Lindsay Clancy trial and mental health care, and the role churches can play in responding to people in crisis.
