  • Good morning.

  • Republicans assemble in Florida for their annual retreat.

  • Politico is there and reveals the internal tug of war behind the scenes.

  • It's kind of a back and forth right now between leaders trying to address affordability

  • and what the Trump administration and these hard-liner Republicans are pushing for.

  • After another barrage of bombings in the Middle East, the human cost of the war mounts.

  • And what drove Alabama's governor to dramatically commute an execution at the last minute?

  • It's Wednesday, March 11th.

  • I'm Cecilia Lei, and this is Apple News Today.

  • The pressure on Iran, as it has been for days now, is unrelenting.

  • That's the sound of a man in his car as shockwaves from explosions near the capital shatter his window.

  • Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said yesterday that it would be the most intense day of bombing since the war began.

  • Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also repeated President Trump's suggestion that the administration was ahead of schedule.

  • "We have destroyed more than 50 Iranian naval vessels, including a major drone carrier ship.

  • None of the regime's vessels are operating in major regional waterways,

  • and the Iranian Navy has been assessed as combat ineffective.

  • The trend is clear: US combat capabilities are increasing and growing more lethal and dominant by the day,

  • while the Iranian terrorist regime's ability to respond has rapidly declined."

  • Late Tuesday night, Iran said it was beginning its own new wave of attacks on US-Israeli military bases nearby.

  • The consequences of this conflict is spilling far beyond military targets and into ordinary people's lives.
