President Trump stated that the U.S. Navy will "begin shortly" its own blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and accused Iran of "world extortion" for blocking it in a recent Truth Social post. He even declared that ships that had paid a toll to the Iranians to use the waterway would be stopped by the Navy. This follows the lengthy and unsuccessful peace negotiations between the United States and Iran in Islamabad, Pakistan. Rep. Gregory Meeks, a prominent Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, and MS NOW senior national security writer David Rohde join "The Weekend" to respond in real time.
