Donald Trump is scheduled to hold a press conference today at 1pm ET in the White House briefing room to discuss the ongoing conflict involving Iran and Israel. The press conference comes on the heels of a recent social media post where Trump issued a profanity-laden ultimatum to the Iranian regime, demanding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz or facing further military action against energy sites and infrastructure in Iran.
