Airport chaos, Iran tensions and gas prices fuel frustrations at home

In this Final 5 interview, Marly Hornik of RealAmerica.Vote says President Trump’s move to deploy ICE personnel at airports was politically smart because it cast the agency in a more helpful, public-facing role while easing long lines. On Iran, she acknowledges Americans are feeling the squeeze from higher gas prices, but argues the broader threat posed by Iran and its proxy networks outweighs short-term pain at the pump. The overall message: Washington needs to move faster on funding, even as the public weighs domestic strain against national security concerns abroad.
