  • President Donald Trumpsaid Wednesday the U.S. “knew nothing” about Israel’s strike on a major Iranian gas field, but warned the U.S. would “blow up the entirety” of the site if Iran struck Qatar’s LNG gas facility again.
  • In a post on Truth Social, Trump said Israel had “violently lashed out” against the South Pars gas field in Iran.
    • “The United States knew nothing about this particular attack, and the country of Qatar was in no way, shape, or form, involved with it, nor did it have any idea that it was going to happen,” Trump said. “Unfortunately, Iran did not know this, or any of the pertinent facts pertaining to the South Pars attack, and unjustifiably and unfairly attacked a portion of Qatar’s LNG Gas facility.”
    • Trump said that Israel would not launch any more attacks at the gas field unless Iran struck Qatar again.
    • “In which instance the United States of America, with or without the help or consent of Israel, will massively blow up the entirety of the South Pars Gas Field at an amount of strength and power that Iran has never seen or witnessed before,” Trump said.
    • “I do not want to authorize this level of violence and destruction because of the long-term implications that it will have on the future of Iran, but if Qatar’s LNG is again attacked, I will not hesitate to do so,” he added. (Truth Social/President DJT)

Republican National Committee (RNC) is a 2026 Supreme Court case reviewing a Mississippi law that allows mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted if received within five business days after.

• This year, the USPS has changed their policy on postmarks. Instead of noting the date that a piece of mail is received, a postmark now reflects the date that a piece of mail is processed at a facility, meaning mail dropped into a mailbox may not be postmarked right away. How will this change affect mail in voting? (NBC News)

Segment Topic: 

• Pro-life leader criticizes ‘insane’ UK bill that would decriminalize certain abortions up until birth.
• 40 Days for Life CEO Shawn Carney warned the clause could start an ‘unfortunate trend’ throughout Europe.
  • The leader of an international pro-life group is criticizing a bill being considered in the United Kingdom that would protect women from criminal liability for abortionsup until birth.
  • In an interview with Fox News Digital, 40 Days for Life CEO Shawn Carney said British lawmakers are following efforts by Democrats in the U.S. in seeking to allow abortion in these instances, which he described as “absolutely absurd.”
  • “They haven’t really lobbied for this,” Carney said. “Typically, Europe is far more conservative on abortion than the United States. Most European countries regulate abortion to 12 weeks. England has 16. In some cases, they do late term, up to 24 weeks. But now they want abortion through all 40 weeks. And this just seems sort of out of nowhere.”
• Carney said he fears this bill, if enacted into law, would “start an unfortunate trend throughout Europe.”
• The Crime and Policing Bill includes a provision, Clause 208, that would remove criminal penalties for women in England and Wales who end their own pregnancy at any stage. The bill is now in its final stages in the House of Lords and is expected to receive a vote as early as Wednesday. If the House of Lords approves the clause, the bill would return to the House of Commons for any final changes before receiving Royal Assent to become law.
• Under the provision, a woman can no longer be investigated, arrested or prosecuted for ending her own pregnancy at any gestation, even though the current standard legal threshold for most abortions in England and Walesis 24 weeks.
• While women who terminate their pregnancies would be exempt from criminal liability, doctors and others who assist in an abortion after 24 weeks without medical necessity can still face prosecution.
• As lawmakers consider Clause 208, several amendments have been offered, including removing it entirely, modifying it to exclude late-term abortions and adding an in-person requirement for medical consultations to end so-called “pills-by-post” services.
• Carney argued that the latter two amendments should still be unacceptable, stating that the clause appears to represent “a desire to kill.”
• “I think it’s insane,” he said. “I know what they’re trying to do, but you need to combat the laws by saying we’re not aborting children at 40 weeks. The left built an entire movement on being able to survive outside the womb with viability. Then, as science and medicine progressed, viability changed because we could do a lot for unborn children. So they said at first it was 24 weeks, and then it was 22 weeks. Some say it’s 20 weeks. Others say it’s still 22 weeks. Nobody’s ever said it was 40 weeks. They’ve all said, of course, you can survive outside the womb. This is just a desire to kill, it seems, at 40 weeks.”
• “I understand the idea of trying to make a legal compromise,” he continued. “But the compromise would be that you people have lost your minds. You want to abort a child the day before he or she is born. And it’s not medically necessary. The baby’s completely viable… so that’s how I think that you have to defeat these bills.”
• Carney also said that “people don’t want to celebrate abortion” and “certainly don’t want to brag about how they can have an abortion up to 40 weeks,” adding that opponents of the K. billare “missing common sense responses” to efforts to allow any abortion up until birth.
• He added that while most people are not “monsters” seeking abortions at 40 weeks, removing legal liability for women at that point could make abortion more socially acceptable.
• “I think what it does is it takes a little bit of a stigma away from abortions at 8, 10, 12, 16 weeks, because typically what we’ve seen in the U.S. is when you have states that say, hey, you’re going to have an abortion through all 40 weeks, what they do is say, well, OK, I’m not that bad. My abortion is not that bad because it’s only at 10 weeks, it’s only at 12 weeks, it’s only at 16 weeks,” Carney said.
