Trump news at a glance: Generational divide over Iran war emerges at key conservative conference

Younger conservatives are dissatisfied with Donald Trump’s choice to initiate a war against Iran. Key US political articles from March 29.

A generation gap has surfaced over the Iran conflict between elder guests and their political descendants at this year’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Texas as the group’s leaders called for unity ahead of a difficult midterm election year for Republicans.

Younger conservatives expressed dissatisfaction and even “betrayal” over Donald Trump’s commencement of strikes against Iran, claiming that the president’s actions contradict his previous promises to avoid foreign entanglements.

Meanwhile, older conservatives were seeing past Trump’s campaign critique of military action to destabilize foreign regimes, claiming that the battle in Iran is a realistic decision motivated by dangers to the United States.

Maga’s fear over the Iran war is evident at CPAC.

CPAC is typically a source of hope, if not triumph. But, for the first time in a decade, the president did not attend, reportedly preoccupied with the war in Iran. In his absence, the crowd gathered in a large ballroom to hear well-known but less powerful Maga personalities discuss the direction of their movement. Their chief fear is how a president who campaigned on eliminating wars could be considering a ground invasion of Iran.

Iran accuses the US of planning a ground strike while offici

ally seeking talks.

Iran has warned the US that it is ready to resist any ground assault, accusing Washington of secretly planning a land strike while outwardly seeking talks, as the war that has killed thousands of people and caused the most severe disruption to world energy supplies enters its second month.

Lawmakers respond to reports. The Pentagon is preparing for ground operations in Iran.

US politicians have responded to allegations that the Pentagon is preparing for weeks of ground operations in Iran, as thousands of US troops gather in the Middle East and the fight appears to be approaching a more deadly phase.

James Lankford, a Republican senator, told NBC’s Meet the Press that he had not ruled out assisting troops on the ground, but that “we need to know what the objectives are and what they’re actually doing.”

DHS has experienced the longest partial government shutdown in US history.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the fourth largest agency in the US government, had the longest partial closure in US history on Sunday. If the six-week partial shutdown continues into the weekend, it will be the longest closure ever, surpassing last year’s standoff, which lasted 43 days.

Despite bans, the US abortion rate remains stable, according to a new analysis.

The abortion rate in the United States has remained stable despite total and partial restrictions in some states, owing primarily to cross-state travel and a major increase in telemedicine appointments, according to a recent analysis.

Abortions in the United States climbed slightly last year, from 1.124 million to 1.126 million, according to Guttmacher Institute research. There is also a shift away from travel and toward telemedicine, in which clinicians may prescribe mail-order medications.

What else happened today?

In an apparent rebuke to the Trump administration, Pope Leo stated that God rejects the prayers of those who conduct war and have “hands full of blood.” The pontiff made the remarks on Sunday, as thousands of US troops arrived in the Middle East.

According to organizers, more than 8 million people protested the Trump administration on Saturday in over 3,300 No Kings events in the United States and more than a dozen other countries.
