President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced a ceasefire extension with Iran. He said the United States has been asked to halt its attack on the regime until it submits a unified proposal. In the meantime, the president is directing the U.S. military to continue its blockade on Iranian ports. That comes as U.S. forces board a second vessel with ties to Iran in just two days—this time in the Indo-Pacific.

Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned from Congress on Tuesday. The Florida Democrat’s resignation follows a House ethics investigation. Meanwhile, Trump’s nominee for Federal Reserve chair, Kevin Warsh, was in the hot seat today, facing tough questions from lawmakers over inflation and political independence.
