Now: First Results in Indiana, Where Trump Vows Revenge

Erin Burnett OutFront delivers breaking news from Indiana, where President Donald Trump is testing his political power within the Republican Party by backing challengers against seven Republican lawmakers who defied him on a controversial redistricting map. With over $13 million spent—4,736% more than the last cycle—this unprecedented internal GOP battle has turned Indiana into a battleground of ideological warfare, revealing deep fractures between Trump loyalists and moderate Republicans. Early results show a Trump-backed candidate defeating Indiana State Senator Travis Holdman, a significant loss for the party establishment, while other races remain too close to call. The episode underscores a broader national trend: the Republican Party is increasingly divided between a populist, authoritarian wing led by Trump and a more traditional conservative faction, with implications for the 2026 midterms and 2028 presidential race. Meanwhile, a CNN investigation casts doubt on Trump’s claim that Iran’s nuclear capabilities were 'obliterated,' revealing that key parts of its nuclear supply chain remain intact, including uranium enrichment facilities and mining operations. The segment also features Elizabeth Smart, now an award-winning bodybuilder and advocate, sharing how her journey to physical strength has become a powerful act of healing and self-empowerment after her traumatic abduction as a teenager.
