BONUS POD: Trump Vows Crushing Response to Iran plus Darline Graham Nordone Heads to the Senate

1. U.S.–Iran Conflict Escalation

President Donald Trump announces a renewed blockade targeting Iranian shipping.
The U.S. is described as assuming a guardian role over the Strait of Hormuz, a strategically important global shipping route.
Trump is quoted as proposing a 20% security fee on cargo passing through the strait.
There were planned military strikes against Iran and the U.S. military has significantly degraded Iranian capabilities.

2. Appointment of Darline Graham Nordone

Senator Lindsey Graham passed away.
South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster appoints Graham's sister, Darline Graham Nordone, as an interim senator.
The appointment is both a tribute to Graham's legacy and a historically significant event because Darline Graham Nordone would become the first woman to represent South Carolina in the U.S. Senate.
We discuss Graham's relationship with his sister and her role in preserving Republican representation in the Senate until a special election is held.
