About this listen

 Today’s Headlines: President Trump has approved support for Israel’s strikes on Iran but says he’ll decide within two weeks whether to escalate U.S. military involvement—echoing past vague promises. Meanwhile, the last known American hostage from Gaza returned home to New Jersey. ICE detained Sayed Naser, an Afghan man who aided U.S. forces, during an immigration hearing despite his active asylum case. Confusion followed a bizarre incident at Dodger Stadium where masked individuals claiming to be ICE were later said to be CBP agents, though no official operation was confirmed. Another SpaceX rocket exploded during a ground test, adding to Elon Musk’s taxpayer-funded streak of failures. The EPA is reportedly reconsidering its long-overdue ban on deadly white asbestos, still legal in the U.S. despite global bans. And Trump has extended the TikTok ban yet again—this time through September 17.
