Here are some of the stories making news in Washington and politics today. - President Trump and his team have struggled to describe the reasoning behind the decision to launch a drone strike against a powerful Iranian commander. On Sunday, Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper [said he was never shown any specific evidence that Iran was planning an attack on four American embassies](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRf_uSbP0T7aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMC8wMS8xMi91cy9wb2xpdGljcy9lc3Blci1pcmFuLXRydW1wLWVtYmFzc2llcy5odG1sP3RlPTEmbmw9b24tcG9saXRpY3Mgd2l0aCBsaXNhIGxlcmVyJmVtYz1lZGl0X2NuXzIwMjAwMTEzP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTU2Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTE1MTQ1JnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MjAyNzgmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkNyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyMjAyMDAxMTNXA255dEIKACmbXxxeLxG8ElIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA) — as Mr. Trump had claimed two days earlier. - In October 2002, Joseph R.
