As the U.S.-backed war involving Iran enters its second month, President Donald Trump has set an April 6 deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, warning of attacks on Iranian power plants while also claiming talks are progressing—an assertion Iranian officials have publicly disputed. In a recent NPR interview, Rep. Adam Smith of Washington, the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, argued the conflict risks widening and may not achieve its stated aims. He also discussed the ongoing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding lapse that has left the agency partially shut down amid a standoff over immigration enforcement policy.
