Trump's Taxpayer-Funded Ads Spark Fury Ahead Of Midterms: 'Illegal, Outrageous...'

Taxpayer-funded advertisements featuring President Trump and Mayor Johnson have sparked significant controversy and accusations of illegality ahead of the midterms. The White House defends these materials as public service announcements designed to promote patriotism without direct calls to action. Separately, President Trump announced the rejection of an Iranian proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. This decision follows recent attacks by Yemen's Houthis on the capital of Saudi Arabia over the previous weekend.
