Foreign Affairs The End of the Carter Doctrine Do Americans still believe in the importance of the Persian Gulf region? After the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in 1979, the United States under President Jimmy Carter decided to take a more active role in the region.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom called former President Barack Obama before launching his aggressive Proposition 50 redistricting push, expecting a warning to play it safe. Instead, he was told to push ahead. State of play: Newsom said during an interview on "The Axios Show " that he went into the call "very nervous," not to secure Obama's endorsement but to get a gut check on a strategy he knew could divide Democrats. - He expected Obama — long associated with the party's "when they go low, we go high" ethos — to urge caution rather than provide the encouragement that helped catapult the redistricting campaign.

The big picture: The U.S. is developing military operations for a "final blow," Axios' Barak Ravid reported, but some hypothetical next steps, like the use of ground forces, could risk intensifying the fight. Context: Trump has repeatedly claimed that the war is essentially over, but Iran continues to launch strikes against Israel and other Gulf countries. The nation is also maintaining the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, impacting oil and gas prices worldwide. - The White House and the Pentagon are considering sending at least 10,000 additional combat troops to the…
