Day 3 of renewed U.S. strikes on Iran is underway, with American forces pushing further into Iranian territory as a massive banner offering a $100 million reward for President Trump's life went up in Qom this week — part of a broader wave of regime-linked threats against top U.S. and Israeli officials.

Meanwhile on the home front, Senate Majority Leader John Thune is staring down a censure vote from his own state party after South Dakota Republicans unanimously advanced it over his handling of the SAVE America Act.
