Hours later, President Donald Trump said U.S. forces had “obliterated” military targets on Iran’s Kharg Island – the primary terminal that handles Iran’s oil exports – and warned that the island’s oil infrastructure there could be next.

RFK Jr. is right about medical school and preventive care: The first patient I met as a medical student was a middle-aged delivery man and a former track athlete.
