At a March 10, 2026 White House briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said President Trump’s military campaign against Iran, known as Operation Epic Fury, is progressing faster than expected, with thousands of targets struck, Iran’s missile and drone attacks sharply reduced, and its navy severely weakened. She argued that temporary oil-price increases caused by the conflict will fade and claimed the administration is working to keep energy flowing through the Strait of Hormuz. Leavitt also shifted to domestic issues, urging Congress to pass the “Save America Act,” which she described as a top priority for the president, including voter ID, proof of citizenship for voter registration, limits on universal mail-in voting, a ban on men competing in women’s sports, and restrictions on gender-transition procedures for minors. During questions, she defended Trump’s handling of the Iran conflict, rejected criticism from Democrats, addressed concerns over homeland security funding, and said the administration believes its economic and tax policies are beginning to benefit American workers.
