Hassett: Blockade Leaving Iran on 'Precipice of Extreme Calamity'

By Sandy Fitzgerald | Sunday, 03 May 2026 03:55 PM EDT


U.S. pressure on Iran is intensifying the country's economic crisis, as a U.S.-backed blockade is straining its economy and leaving it "on the precipice of extreme calamity" while Iran deals with hyperinflation, food shortages, and growing internal unrest, White House National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett said Sunday.

"The blockade is working. It's putting an enormous amount of pressure on Iran," Hassett said during an interview with
CBS' "Face the Nation," adding that recent U.N. criticism of Tehran highlights the regime's treatment of its own citizens.

Hassett also pointed to Iran's long-term economic decline, saying the country's per capita GDP has fallen sharply since the 1979 Revolution, underscoring what he described as systemic mismanagement by its leadership.

WATCH: Justice Alito, a powerhouse of influence

Mollie Hemingway joins Bold & Blunt

VIDEO

By Cheryl K. Chumley - The Washington Times - Saturday, May 2, 2026

OPINION:


When it comes to Supreme Court justices, one of the lesser known is Samuel Alito. But he’s truly the voice of constitutional influence on the High Court, cutting through the complex and alerting his fellow justices to what’s really at stake in each of the cases.

So says
Mollie Hemingway, author of the new and best-selling “Alito: The Justice Who Reshaped the Supreme Court and Restored the Constitution,” a book that takes readers behind the scenes to reveal the personality, humility, and genius of one of the George w. Bush appointee.

One of Alito’s greatest talents is he’s able to remain principled in the face of pragmatic and oft-divisive politics, she said.

Comey indictment is ‘not just about a single Instagram post,’ acting attorney general says

By Lindsey McPherson - The Washington Times - Sunday, May 3, 2026


Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Sunday the government has more evidence than an Instagram post supporting charges that former FBI Director James Comey threatened President Trump.

Last year, Mr. Comey posted a photo on Instagram depicting seashells on the beach arranged to read “86 47,” which many took as support for killing Mr. Trump.

“This is not just about a single Instagram post,” Mr. Blanche said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

“This is about a body of evidence that the grand jury collected over the series of about 11 months,” he said. “We will necessarily have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, at trial, every element of this crime, which we’re prepared to do.”

A grand jury in the
U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, where Mr. Comey took the seashell photo, indicted the former FBI director on two counts, threatening the president and transmitting a threat in interstate commerce.

The charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.

A redacted version of the indictment — the unredacted version is under seal — only references the Instagram post as evidence, saying “a reasonable recipient who is familiar with the circumstances would interpret [the post] as a serious expression of an intent to do harm to the President of the United States.”

Mr. Comey took down the photo soon after he posted it. He said he assumed the seashell formation was a political message, but “it never occurred” to him that it was a call to assassinate Mr. Trump.

Jack Carr to Newsmax: Iran Miscalculated US Resolve

VIDEO

By Newsmax Wires | Sunday, 03 May 2026 01:38 PM EDT


Iran has misread the United States as tensions continue, and the outcome will shape how global adversaries respond to American power, former U.S. Navy SEAL Jack Carr said Sunday on Newsmax.

President Donald Trump has given Iran a ceasefire and some time to collect itself, "but now it's getting to a point where it doesn't seem like anything's happening right now," Carr told Newsmax's
"Sunday Report."

Still, he said, it is a mistake to project American thinking onto adversaries like Iran, especially given fundamental differences in values and priorities.

Iran Is Losing This War, and the Global Balance of Power Is Shifting

Victor Davis Hanson
5/3/2026|Updated: 5/3/2026

This is a lightly edited transcript of an April 30th segment of the Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words podcast. 

We’re approaching 60 days of the so-called Iran war, and we’re still getting these loud voices that Donald Trump has failed, that the war’s not going well.

It’s completely nonempirical. It’s antithetical to the evidence.

Here we are at 60 days, and Iran is losing about $500 million in input per day. It’s running out of storage space in a week or two for its daily output of oil, at which point they either have to stop pumping or they’re going to have—if they don’t stop pumping—their wells will collapse.

Marco Rubio’s 2028 momentum is getting impossible to ignore

By Joe Concha
Published May 2, 2026 1:12pm ET | Updated May 2, 2026 1:12pm ET

VIDEO

In 1960, Richard Nixon ran for president after eight years as Dwight Eisenhower’s vice president.

In 1968, Hubert Humphrey ran after serving under LBJ.

In 1988, George H.W. Bush ran after two terms under Ronald Reagan.

In 2000, Al Gore ran after eight years as vice president under Bill Clinton.

In 2024, Kamala Harris was installed as the Democratic nominee after four forgetful years under Joe Biden.

In the modern era, vice presidents tend to run for president. Joe Biden did in 2020 after watching
Barack Obama’s preferred 2016 nominee, Hillary Clinton, lose an election despite every conceivable advantage. Walter Mondale, Jimmy Carter’s VP, ran four years after his boss got creamed by Ronald Reagan in the 1980 election. Mondale would go on to win one state against the same opponent in 1984.
