The Alaska Senate race is emerging as a key 2026 battleground as Sen. Dan Sullivan faces a competitive re-election fight and President Donald Trump steps in with a strong endorsement ahead of the state's nonpartisan primary. Jon Decker reports from Anchorage on the race, including the challenge from former Democratic Rep. Mary Peltola and why control of the U.S. Senate could be at stake.

Plus, the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding has expired without an agreement to curtail Iran's nuclear program or resolve the ongoing crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. The Trump administration continues to pressure Tehran with a naval blockade as the war drives oil and gas prices higher ahead of the midterm elections.

Also, President Trump orders reductions to annual U.S.-South Korea military exercises while touting his relationship with North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, raising new questions about military readiness and the possibility of renewed nuclear diplomacy.
