Trump Sets Hard Deadline for Iran After Mission Rescues 2nd Airman; Artemis II Crew Crests Around Moon | Capitol Report

President Donald Trump is escalating his threats to devastate Iran if a deal isn’t reached by Tuesday. This is as the president and top officials celebrate the historic rescue of two American airmen whose F-15 was shot down over Iran last week.

Trump today talked about the heavy decision he had to make risking 100 lives to save two U.S. airmen stranded deep inside Iran to ensure no American was left behind. Joining now to discuss the latest developments is Scott Brown, former U.S. Ambassador to New Zealand and former U.S. senator from Massachusetts, as well as John Sitilides, senior fellow for Global Risks and the Center for the National Interest.

The Artemis II crew is currently on the far side of the moon and out of contact with Earth. We’ll bring you the moment they crest back into range tonight.
