Early coverage still lingered on Trump's rejection of Tehran's seven-day offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with Trump calling it unacceptable and declining to rule out renewed strikes before the midterms while Iran warned of a doomsday response.
Attention then shifted to the nor'easter battering the Northeast for a second day, with flooding, more than 100,000 customers without power, at least one death and a swimmer missing off Fire Island.
By midday the focus converged on Britain, where police arrested five men under terrorism and explosives laws near a UK air base used by U.S. forces. Reports described three vans, bomb-disposal teams, evacuations of 85 homes and an investigated Iranian link, with Trump hailing the operation as amazing and saying planned damage had been stopped.
