Sen. John Fetterman has recorded a one‑minute video praising Republican Sen. Dave McCormick and saying he will work with President Trump to defend Pennsylvania’s steel industry.

President Donald Trump has said the US war with Iran will end "immediately after" the November midterm elections and predicted oil and gasoline prices will fall once voting is over.
