Report Alleges Trump's Daily Military Briefing Scrubs Out Iran War Setbacks
A fresh NBC report has alleged that President Trump is being presented with a very incomplete picture of how the Iran war is going, with the conflict now approaching its first month, and as Washington struggles to find an offramp amid global oil market disruptions.

Trump Sets Xi Meeting Date As Clock Ticks On Iran War Offramp
The long-anticipated Trump-Xi meeting will take place in Beijing on May 14 and 15, the White House said Wednesday, after the bilateral summit was previously pushed back due to the Iran war.
This marks a roughly six week postponement compared to when it was earlier supposed to happen. President Trump indicated in a fresh social media post that US representatives are "finalizing preparations for these Historic Visits." He added that "I look very much forward to spending time with President Xi in what will be, I am sure, a Monumental Event."
Since the war kicked off on Feb.28, White House officials have offered an ever-evolving timeline for offramp and exit from the war, vowing the whole time that it's not a "forever war" and "not like Iraq and Afghanistan" - to quote from Hegseth's latest Pentagon briefings.
