Sen WARNER responds to Trump announcing a DNI nom, tells me, “I have great respect for Jay Clayton.” But the prospect of Pulte being there still an issue. “I've never been a fan of Dir Gabbard, but if Dir Gabbard were to stay till he was confirmed, that could be a path out.”

President Trump this morning threatening a MAJOR escalation vs. Iran- saying the US “will be taking Kharg island” and “total control” over Iran’s oil economy.

Could be a threat, could be an order - but I don't know how you "take" any land from Iran without significant troops on the ground, much less the heart of their energy export economy.

Worth watching this dynamic. If Senate Republicans can’t be swayed to take up another reconciliation bill, there’s not much more the Trump admin will get passed any time soon.
🚨🚨 @SenMcConnell at an Air Force appropriations hearing: "I think it's safe to conclude there will not be another reconciliation bill. So it's really not an option." Senate Appropriations Chair @SenatorCollins: "I agree with that assessment."

Loved @RyanChandlerTV's spot on @TODAYshow building on this reporting. No story about great gas station food is complete without a shoutout to @joeskc - which kept me fed for years in Kansas City. Man, now I really want a Z-man sandwich...
From brisket sandwiches to mahi-mahi tacos, the quality of gas station convenience store food has gone from questionable to mouthwatering on.wsj.com/4xljza3

Missing Rep. Tom Kean is introducing bills and even putting speeches in the record that imply he's in Congress ("I rise today...") It highlights a Capitol Hill trend of staff and social media covering for bosses who are MIA
NEW @NBCnews: New Jersey Republican Rep. Tom Kean hasn't voted or been seen in three months, and given no explanation. — But he's introducing and co-sponsoring legislation. — He's entering written speeches into the congressional record. — And he and his team are posting on almost a daily basis on his X, Instagram & other social media accounts. @KyleAlexStewart & I look at how the missing congressman and his staff are painting a picture of business as usual as his mysterious absence hits the three-month mark. nbcnews.com/politics/congres…

This is a tried and true McConnellism
A no comment from Tom Cotton, chairman of Senate Intel, on whether he believes Bill Pulte has the experience to lead the intelligence community. “I have no observations on the matter,” he said

Now Trump is on Truth Social declaring the talks with Iran are proceeding at a "rapid pace," only a couple hours after he told NBC's @GarrettHaake that "we've been talking too much" and that "going silent would be very good, and that could be... for a long time."
New: President Trump tells me he's not heard from Iran on reports they're suspending talks w/ the US, but if true, its ok: "I think we've been talking too much if you want to know the truth. I think going silent would be very good, and that could be that could be for a long time."

"It doesn't mean we're going to go and start dropping bombs all over there," he continued "We'll just go silent. We'll keep the blockade. Blockade is a piece of steel." Can he wait them out? "I think I can wait as long as they want. They're losing a fortune..."

The "Art of the Deal" author also seemed to have some grudging respect for the Iranians negotiators when I first asked about reports they were suspending talks: "It's an appropriate thing to say, because they're better negotiators than they are fighters."
