## Resource

Donald extends the Iran ceasefire while the Pentagon signals escalation, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth backing a blockade “as long as it takes.” We break down the mixed messaging, the firing of Navy Secretary John Phelan, and the growing list of military leaders pushed out mid-conflict.  Meanwhile, an Oval Office event on healthcare and drug prices veers off course as Donald shrugs off questions about the war. Plus, an insider betting scandal tied to classified military information raises questions about unregulated prediction markets, and the DOJ drops its probe into Fed Chair Jerome Powell, clearing the way for nominee Kevin Warsh. Part II: Open for Business While the Trump Family Digital Grift Wealth Tracker documents up to 9.7 billion dollars in wealth accumulated by the Trump family since Donald took office, seven in ten Americans report struggling to pay for food, housing, and health care. From ballroom donors receiving federal contracts and dropped lawsuits, to foreign governments funding Trump business deals while shaping American foreign policy, the pattern is consistent: access to power flows to those who pay for it, and the people who cannot pay are left behind.
