SHAQ BREWSTER AT THOSE DEMONSTRATIONS TONIGHT THERE IN MADISON.

SHAQ, THANK YOU. WE WANT TO HEAD OVERSEAS NOW BECAUSE THERE WAS. A MAJOR SPIKE IN OIL PRICES TODAY WHICH LEADS TO. HIGHER GAS PRICES AFTER THE WAR IN IRAN HAS NOW. EXPANDED WITH ATTACKS NOW ON SHIPS IN THE RED SEA. AND THE PRESIDENT IS NOW THREATENING A NEW MASSIVE ESCALATION. RICHARD ENGEL REPORTS TONIGHT FROM ISRAEL. THE US WAR ON IRAN IS INTENSIFYING AND EXPANDING AS. PRESIDENT TRUMP SAYS MAJOR COMBAT OPERATIONS COULD RESUME SOON. WE WANT TO GET IT OVER WITH. AND WE WANT TO DO IT RIGHT,

BUT WE HAVE TO, WE HAVE TO DO WHAT WE CAME TO DO. FOR THE 12TH STRAIGHT DAY, THE US ATTACKED IRANIAN MILITARY SITES. US CENTRAL COMMAND RELEASED FOOTAGE OF THE OPERATIONS, WHILE IRAN SAYS CIVILIAN LOCATIONS ARE BEING HIT AS WELL. CENTCOM ALSO PUT OUT AN EDITED VIDEO SET TO ELECTRONIC MUSIC. SHOWING ITS NEWLY REIMPOSED NAVAL BLOCKADE OF IRANIAN PORTS. IRAN HAS RESPONDED TO EVERY AMERICAN ATTACK WITH MISSILE AND DRONE. STRIKES ON US BASES AND AMERICAN TROOPS IN THE MIDDLE EAST,

KILLING AT LEAST 4 SOLDIERS IN THE PAST WEEK. AND NOW ONE OF IRAN'S ALLIES HAS OPENED A SECOND FRONT, WIDENING THE WAR. AND RATTLING MARKETS. FOR 5 MONTHS, THE US AND IRAN HAVE BATTLED FOR CONTROL OF THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ, PASSAGEWAY FOR 20% OF THE WORLD'S OIL AND GAS. OVERNIGHT, THE HOUTHIS IN YEMEN, AN IRANIAN-BACKED MILITIA, SAY THEY ATTACKED TWO SAUDI SHIPS IN THE RED SEA TO THE WEST.

12% OF ALL GLOBAL TRADE PASSES THROUGH THE RED SEA. INTERNATIONAL OIL PRICES JUMPED TO OVER $100 A BARREL FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE MAY. PRESIDENT TRUMP TOLD AXIOS AND ISRAELI MEDIA TONIGHT. HE'S CONSIDERING A MASSIVE ATTACK ON IRAN, BIGGER THAN EVER BEFORE BECAUSE IRAN. HASN'T RECEIVED ENOUGH PAIN YET. BUT THE PRESIDENT IS ALSO FACING MORE POLITICAL CHALLENGES. 4 REPUBLICANS IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES TODAY JOINING.

DEMOCRATS IN A SYMBOLIC VOTE TO DIRECT THE PRESIDENT. TO REMOVE ARMED FORCES FROM HOSTILITIES WITH IRAN. AND WITH THAT, RICHARD JOINS US NOW LIVE FROM JERUSALEM TONIGHT. RICHARD, ISRAEL ALSO GETTING READY RIGHT NOW. FOR THE WAR TO REACH A NEW LEVEL. ISRAEL IS CERTAINLY PREPARING FOR AN ESCALATION. THE GOVERNMENT TODAY OPENED SHELTERS IN SEVERAL CITIES FOR THE PUBLIC, AND THE DEFENSE MINISTER SAID. THAT IF IRAN ATTACKS ISRAEL,

IT WILL RECEIVE A DEVASTATING BLOW. IT SOUNDS IT FEELS LIKE A NEW PHASE IN THIS WAR. OK, RICHARD, WE THANK YOU. BACK HERE IN THE US, THE NEW CONTROVERSY AT THE SECRET SERVICE. AN AGENT. ON VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE'S DETAIL. HAS BEEN REMOVED AND IS NOW UNDER INVESTIGATION. OVER ALLEGATIONS OF PUTTING THE VP SECURITY AT RISK. KELLY O'DONNELL HAS THE DETAILS. TONIGHT A SECRET SERVICE AGENT. HAS BEEN REMOVED FROM THE PROTECTIVE DETAIL AROUND VICE PRESIDENT JD VANCE.

OFFICIALS SAID A REVIEW IS UNDERWAY, WRITING. ANY CONDUCT THAT POTENTIALLY THREATENS THE SAFETY. OF A PROTECTEE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED.

BAD WEATHER SCRUBBHE FLIGHT. AN ADMINISTRATION OFFICIAL SAYS. USE OF MARINE 2 BY VANCE AND HIS YOUNG FAMILY. IS DONE FOR OPERATIONAL SECURITY. AND CAN REDUCE MANPOWER AND ROAD CLOSURES REQUIRED FOR MOTORCADES. ALL WHILE THE THREAT ENVIRONMENT IS ALARMINGLY HIGH. THE SECRET SERVICE HAS MORE THAN 10,000 THREAT INVESTIGATIONS SINCE JANUARY, UP 40% OVER THIS TIME LAST YEAR. THEY'RE OFF THE CHARTS. I THINK THE ENVIRONMENT.

HAS BECOME VERY VOLATILE, AND THAT'S JUST ACROSS THE BOARD. THREATS THAT INCLUDE A WOULD-BE ASSASSIN BREACHING A CHECKPOINT. GUNFIRE. SETTING OFF CHAOS. AT THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS' DINNER IN APRIL. THAT DISRUPTED DINNER IS RESCHEDULED FOR TOMORROW NIGHT. THE WHITE HOUSE SAYS THE PRESIDENT LOOKS FORWARD TO FINISHING WHAT HE STARTED.

OF PEPTIDES THAT'S GETTING A LOT OF ATTEN. THEY ARE POPULAR TREATMENTS THAT PROMISE TO DO. EVERYTHING FROM ADD MUSCLE TO LOSE WEIGHT. ANN THOMPSON EXPLAINS WHY NOT EVERYONE THINKS THIS IS A GOOD IDEA. THEY ARE ALL THE RAGE IN WELLNESS. SO LET'S TALK ABOUT PEPTIDES. PEPTIDES, SHORT CHAINS OF AMINO ACIDS MARKETED FOR EVERYTHING FROM HEALING. INJURIES TO SPEEDING UP METABOLISM TO SLOWING DOWN AGING. NOW AN FDA ADVISORY COMMITTEE. CONSIDERING WHETHER 7 OF THE MOST POPULAR PEPTIDES SHOULD.

BE ALLOWED TO BE MADE BY SPECIALIZED PHARMACIES, INCREASING ACCESS. EVEN THOUGH THEY'VE NEVER BEEN APPROVED FOR SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS. THE DEMAND FOR THIS PEPTIDE WILL NOT DISAPPEAR. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN OF THIS PANEL. PANDORA'S BOX HAS BEEN OPENED. THESE SYNTHETIC PEPTIDES CAN BE INJECTED OR USED IN A SPRAY, CREAM, OR PILL FORM. RACHEL PESAPOAK SAYS SHE FIELDS QUESTIONS EVERY DAY. WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS FOR THESE PEPTIDES?

USING THESE PEPTIDES,T WE E. BUT WE KNOW THAT WE DON'T HAVE DATA. WE HAVE SOME LIMITED ANIMAL DATA, BUT WE DO NOT HAVE HUMAN DATA ON THE PEPTIDES THAT THEY ARE STUDYING TODAY. AMONG THE CONCERNS, POSSIBLE CONTAMINATION FROM IMPORTED PRODUCTS AND WHAT EXACTLY IS IN THEM. STILL. THEY ARE BACKED BY HEALTH SECRETARY ROBERT F. KENNEDY JR. I'M A BIG FAN OF PEPTIDES. I'VE USED THEM MYSELF. DIANA SOKOL SAYS SHE'S A PEPTIDE ADVOCATE. I SUPPORT BRINGING THESE THINGS TO MARKET IN A WAY THAT'S LEGAL,

ACCESSIBLE, AND SAFE. SHE USES PEPTIDES FROM A WELLNESS CENTER TO BUILD MUSCLE. I WOULD SAY. WITHIN 3 WEEKS. I STARTED TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE. SO YOU THINK THEY'RE WORKING? DEFINITELY. ANNE JOINS US NOW LIVE. ANNE, I KNOW THIS IS A 2 DAY HEARING AND YOU HAVE AN. UPDATE FOR OUR VIEWERS ABOUT THE DECISIONS MADE BY THIS PANEL. BY NARROW MARGINS, THE PANEL SO FAR RECOMMENDED 3 PEPTIDES TO BE MADE BY THOSE SPECIALIZED PHARMACIES. THOSE PEPTIDES ARE PROMOTED FOR THINGS LIKE ULCERATIVE COLITIS,

INFLAMMATION, AND INSOMNIA. THE PANEL WILL CONSIDER MORE TOMORROW. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT THESE PEPTIDES HAVE PASSED THE SAFETY STANDARD. THE FINAL.
