The U.S. Navy has reimposed its blockade on Iranian ports and continues its fourth consecutive night of strikes as Iran retaliates by hitting tankers and allies across the Gulf, including Bahrain, Kuwait, and the UAE. Meanwhile, bombshell new DOJ records show former Special Counsel Jack Smith's team secretly reviewed the text messages of 44 members of Congress — directly contradicting Smith's own sworn testimony that his team never looked at message content. And Secretary of State Marco Rubio just launched an all-out campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court, brick by brick.
