Trump says "it was going to happen" on expanding Iran sanctions

President Donald Trump used his Truth Social platform Sunday to urge Republican lawmakers to expand a sanctions bill to include Iran, writing that Senator Lindsey Graham wanted that step and that it was imminent. The post came after at least two American service members were killed Friday at a Jordanian air base by Iranian strikes retaliating against U.S. strikes on Iran’s coast. Trump had not issued any formal statement addressing the fatalities, though he told a NewsNation reporter the deaths were “a very sad thing.” The Atlantic columnist Tom Nichols criticized that response, calling for Trump to provide a detailed explanation of his Iran policy and the risks to U.S. forces.
