President Trump this week continued to make his case that the United States is in control of the Strait of Hormuz, posting a map to social media labeling the waterway as a territory of the U.S. Trump also said that the U.S. would limit annual joint military exercises with South Korea in response to Seoul's refusal to join American operations against Iran.

Also this week, Trump showcased a new helipad being built at the White House. On Friday, the president received a temporary go-ahead from Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts to resume construction of the new White House ballroom.
