🚨🇺🇸 A new Harvard/Harris poll just showed Americans prefer the economy under Biden over Trump, 52 to 48... That's a number that should set off alarms in the West Wing. Trump campaigned on the economy, won on the economy, and has spent the first months of his second term betting his entire presidency on it. The voters who put him there are now telling pollsters they liked the previous version better. The midterms are six months away... If gas prices keep climbing and grocery bills follow, this 4-point gap won't be the worst number Trump sees this year... it'll be the best one.

🚨🇮🇷 Restarting the war could actually help Iran. Trita Parsi, Quincy Institute, Iran expert, says renewed conflict could restore Iran’s leverage over the U.S. The ceasefire removed that pressure point. @tparsi t.co/Yc5a2MX0NK

🇺🇸🇨🇺 The Senate just voted 51 to 47 to block any debate on a War Powers Resolution that would have forced Congress to approve military action against Cuba. Notable, Fetterman, again, sided with Republicans to kill the bill, while Susan Collins and Rand Paul broke ranks to demand a vote.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Trump and the King, alongside Melania and Queen Camilla, step into the first full British state dinner at the White House since Queen Elizabeth II’s 2007 visit. Charles, the second British monarch ever to address a joint session of Congress earlier today, joins Trump for a white-tie evening. The menu includes herbs from the White House garden and honey from Melania’s own beehives for dessert.

🇺🇸 Your gas car wastes 70% of its fuel as heat. EVs turn 85-90% of energy into motion. It’s a completely different machine. Tesla owners spend ~70% less on fuel than similar gas cars. The math was always this simple, most people just never saw it. Source: @Tesla, @elonmusk

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Tonight's White House state dinner menu just dropped: Dover Sole Meunière with potato pavé, spring ramps, and snow peas for the main course. Dessert: White House Honey & Vanilla Bean Crémeux, Flourless Chocolate Gâteau, and Crème Fraîche Ice Cream. Why do I feel like I'd still be hungry after?

🚨🇺🇸 The biggest obstacle to a deal may be inside the White House. Trita Parsi, Quincy Institute, Iran expert, says Trump himself has overridden agreements supported by his advisers. It's the inconsistent decision-making that's slowing negotiations. @tparsi t.co/fYHZMALggg

🚨🇺🇸 BREAKING: A tornado just devastated Mineral Wells, Texas Structures destroyed. Multiple injuries reported. People rushed to hospitals The storm is now moving southeast toward FORT WORTH at 25 mph Pray for North Texas. t.co/0FgyYEOmMr

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Trump and Melania welcomed King Charles and Queen Camilla to the White House for a State Dinner that NATO will be watching very closely. With the fractured relationship with Starmer, the King, who Trump highly respects, will have his ear tonight. t.co/PT7xZNAfq5

🇺🇸 Amanda Leigh Fourez paid thousands to have people make sex torture videos with adult and baby monkeys. These sick "animal crush videos" are being trafficked online. We have the nerve to call monkeys uncivilized...this is really disturbing! t.co/EVoKNqGBg0

🇺🇸 In the 1960s, the U.S. Air Force solved supersonic ejection by strapping sedated black bears into escape capsules and shooting them out of B-58 bombers at Mach 1.6 A two-year-old bear survived an ejection at 870 mph Cold War R&D was something else... t.co/ZnALSkDlnk

🇺🇸🇬🇧 King Charles just walked into Trump's White House. White tie. Full ceremony. 2 of the most powerful men on the planet in the same room. The UK-US relationship just got a very formal reboot. t.co/L0QlaeieE2

🚨🇺🇸 The U.S. may already be accepting Iran’s control in practice. Trita Parsi, Quincy Institute, Iran expert, says earlier proposals included letting Iran keep control while the U.S. benefits indirectly. That signals a shift in expectations. @tparsi t.co/13uYHc6XSP

🇺🇸🇮🇷 US Marines from the 31st Expeditionary Unit fast roped onto the Comoros flagged container ship Blue Star III in the Arabian Sea. Suspected of trying to run the blockade straight to Iran. They searched the vessel and released it after confirming the ship was actually bound for Oman. Roya News

🇺🇸Acting AG Blanche: Threatening the President Isn’t Free Speech "For critics who say, ‘Where does free speech end and an actual threat of violence begin?,’I don’t think that’s a very difficult line to understand.” Amazing he has to even clarify that. t.co/EixfYKCqAS

🚨🇺🇸🇬🇧Trump: "He made a great speech! I was very jealous." You can't get a better compliment from Trump. t.co/DmEBCY03PQ

🚨🇺🇸Trump does not need a perfect deal to claim victory. Trita Parsi, Quincy Institute, Iran expert, says ending the war and lowering oil prices may be enough to satisfy his base. Because economic gains matter more politically, than nuclear concessions... @tparsi t.co/S0eIyHz3tI

🇺🇸 5 Mississippi middle schoolers saved everyone on their bus after the driver lost consciousness mid-drive Steered. Braked. Medicated her. Got the bus stopped Their parents are about to brag for the next 40 years and they have earned every word of it! t.co/eXucD9y0V8

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷 “Maximum pressure” on Iran is backfiring… again. Trita Parsi, Quincy Institute, Iran expert, just dropped a reality check: Iran has adapted to years of U.S. sanctions and blockades. The pain is real, but it’s nowhere near decisive. Instead of forcing collapse or total surrender, the pressure campaign has pushed Iran to build resilience, diversify its economy, and find workarounds: from higher oil exports to stronger alliances. Is Washington repeating the same failed playbook while Tehran keeps adjusting? @tparsi

🚨🇺🇸🇨🇺 BREAKING: U.S. Senate voted 51-47 to block a resolution that would have prevented Trump from launching military strikes on Cuba. The same Senate that just rejected five Iran war powers resolutions is clearing the path for another potential military operation, this time 90 miles off the Florida coast. Source: NYT

🇺🇸🇬🇧 "He owed them a meeting." A sitting U.S. Congressman is calling out King Charles over Epstein. Ro Khanna says the King's refusal to meet with the family of his brother Andrew's alleged victim is a slap in the face to survivors. t.co/z0STEsfj7c

Smartest man on earth! Peak human achievement unlocked. Nobody is doing it like him. If you haven't already checked your garage or shed for empty 5-gallon buckets, you're wrong!🤣🤣 t.co/dThMCzcuDM

RECAP: A lot landed at once today. Some of it ceremonial, most of it not, and none of it pointing in the same direction: 🇦🇪 The UAE just announced it's leaving OPEC on May 1. One of the only members with real spare capacity, gone. The cartel loses its most credible swing producer. 🇺🇸🇬🇧 Trump welcomed King Charles to the White House today. Charles then addressed a joint session of Congress. It was actually a heartwarming visit 🇬🇧 The new UK Ambassador chose today to leak that the US is more likely to have a special relationship with Israel than the UK. Timing is immaculate. 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran's Hormuz proposal got rejected. They're writing a new one. The original offer, end the war now, nuclear talks later, was a non-starter for Trump, who wants the nuclear file in any deal. 🇺🇸 US intelligence is meanwhile studying how Iran would react to Trump declaring victory and going home. Their own previous analysis says Tehran would call it a win. Almost a dozen C-17s are currently flying toward the Middle East anyway. 🇵🇰 Pakistan opened 6 land corridors with Iran to route around the naval blockade. 3,000+ containers already moving. Grain of salt on the numbers, but the move itself is real. 🇲🇱 Al-Qaeda's Sahel branch declared a total siege of Bamako and claimed credit for killing Mali's defense minister. The junta is still officially denying he's dead. 🇺🇸 Elon showed up in person at the OpenAI trial. His argument: Altman took a nonprofit built for humanity and flipped it into a for-profit empire worth hundreds of billions. Day 2. 🇺🇸 Comey indicted a second time. Fauci's top deputy at NIAID federally charged with felony counts. The Trump DOJ is having a productive Tuesday. 🇺🇸 Trump approval at 34%. Grocery prices, $110 oil, an Iran war with no exit, and envoys who can't close. The numbers aren't complicated.

🇺🇸🇬🇧 Rep. McBride said the UK is doing more to hold Epstein-connected elites accountable than U.S. Prince Andrew lost his titles and Mandelson lost his ambassadorship, while the U.S. names in those files are still largely untouched. Sad but true. t.co/v9Mn2HWy5i

🇬🇧🇺🇦 Scotland is shipping hundreds of tons of recycled fishing nets to Ukraine to use as anti-drone barriers near the frontline. Fishing industry waste is now frontline defense infrastructure. Wars force innovation. Ukraine keeps finding it in unexpected places. Source: Scottish Government
