President Trump travels to Alaska on Tuesday, his sixth trip there since 2019, in an effort to boost Republican incumbents in Alaska’s U.S. Senate and U.S. House races.

The visit is part of a busy campaign schedule for the 80-year-old president, who in recent days has held events in Nebraska, Texas, New York, Tennessee, and Ohio as he seeks to bolster Republicans ahead of the midterm elections.

Meanwhile, a leading Republican super PAC is pulling out of key House races in New Jersey and Iowa, dealing a blow to GOP hopes of holding on to those battleground seats.

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told reporters at a news briefing today that the US naval blockade of Iran’s ports “is growing and going global.”

“No one sails from the Strait of Hormuz to anywhere in the world without the permission of the United States Navy,” Hegseth said.

In touting the blockade’s success, the defense secretary pointed to US seizure of two ships this week “in the Indo-Pacific region that had left Iranian ports before the blockade went into effect.”
