On April 5th, Republican Mike Turner, from Ohio, says no ground troops are needed to get the straight of four moves back open. In a Sunday interview, he pushed for airstrikes on Iran until they reopened the key waterway that spiking gas prices worldwide. Turner calls Iran a fading regime and top sponsor of terror, with nuclear dreams and missiles that threaten the U.S. and Europe. He insists the straight must reopen, but America's got to head back at their bigger threats too. The straight is vital for oil and gas heading to Europe and Asia, plus humanitarian aid. Its closure has markets in chaos, forced energy rationing in some spots, and jacked up fuel costs everywhere. President Trump fired off a while-true social post Sunday, vowing massive strikes on powerplants and bridges Tuesday, unless Iran opens the dam. Straight. He set deadlines like this before, but pushed them back when talks showed promise. This five-week war has already killed thousands, hammered shipping lanes, and drawn war

crime alerts over hits on oil fields and water plants. Eyes are on what happens next, as pressure builds from all sides. That's the story for today, U.S. News Today, driven by AI.
