Overview
- ABC’s Jonathan Karl said Carlson called the decision to attack Iran "absolutely disgusting and evil" after Karl requested reactions from prominent Trump allies.
- Daily Mail reports the U.S., in a joint operation with Israel, launched Tomahawk missiles at targets in Iran using Air Force and Navy jets.
- Iran claimed "revenge" strikes on U.S. facilities across the region, including a hit on the Fifth Fleet service center in Bahrain, with additional claimed targets in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.
- Trump said there could be U.S. casualties, while the extent of injuries or deaths from Iran’s reported retaliation remained unclear.
- Carlson’s criticism carries added weight because he met Trump at the White House last week and reportedly urged against striking Iran, with Karl and others noting potential blowback inside the MAGA base even as some polling showed prior GOP support for tough measures.
