NY Mayor Considers Arresting Netanyahu | US News
Yesterday00:01:52Tap to summarizeNew York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is considering arresting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the upcoming UN summit, citing ICC findings of war crimes in Gaza—and he’s not alone in his push, having previously called for Putin’s arrest too. While Mamdani consults legal teams on what’s permissible under New York law, Israel’s UN ambassador and Netanyahu himself have fired back, accusing him of antisemitism, supporting Hamas, and even suggesting he should be arrested instead. As the UN gathers in September, tensions flare—and the mayor’s office is still weighing its next move. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Transcribe →Ford Defends Canada’s Wildfires | US News
Yesterday00:02:03Tap to summarizeOntario’s Premier Doug Ford is defiantly countering U.S. criticism over Canada’s wildfires, calling it “absolutely unacceptable” to blame Canadian forest management for smoke blanketing the U.S. He highlights over 655,000 hectares burning and vows no budget limits on firefighting efforts. Ford also challenges President Trump’s tariff threats, suggesting lifting softwood lumber tariffs would help resolve forest management issues. As thousands evacuate — including via Canadian Armed Forces aircraft in Fort Hope — climate experts link the worsening fires to global warming and shifting wind patterns carrying smoke south. While air quality alerts stretch across U.S. states, officials report a slowdown in fire activity and improving weather ahead.

Transcribe →First Case in Alien Terrorist Court | US News
Yesterday00:01:24Tap to summarizeFor the first time in 30 years, the U.S. Alien Terrorist Removal Court convened for its historic first hearing, where the government sought to deport a noncitizen suspected of terrorism—but the judge paused, demanding more classified evidence before making a ruling. Set up in 1996 to handle terrorism-related removals while safeguarding national security, this court has never before seen an actual filing. Judge Joan N. Ericksen gave the government until July 17th to submit sealed materials, with the respondent getting until July 21st to respond. The court will then decide if further hearings are needed—or if they have enough to act. Details remain under wraps for now.

Transcribe →Taco Bell Lettuce Outbreak Linked to Mexico | US News
Yesterday00:01:53Tap to summarizeMexico’s health and agriculture agencies are urgently investigating a U.S. foodborne illness outbreak tied to iceberg lettuce from central Mexico, now linked to Taco Bell sickening over 100 people across multiple states. A joint Mexican-U.S. team is tracing the lettuce’s origin, while suppliers Taylor Farms and distributor Sysco have pulled affected lettuce from Guanajuato facilities after FDA alerts. Though Mexico stresses pinpointing origin doesn’t confirm contamination there, this isn’t the first time Taylor Farms’ Mexican plants have been tied to cyclosporiasis outbreaks — a similar 2013 incident sickened 600+ people nationwide.

Transcribe →Pentagon’s Testosterone Screening Under Fire | US News
Yesterday00:01:56Tap to summarizeThe Pentagon’s new annual testosterone screening mandate for service members 30 and older sparks controversy, with officials touting it as a readiness booster but doctors warning of serious risks — from infertility to blood clots — when hormone therapy is prescribed without clear medical need. Critics argue age alone isn’t justification for widespread screening, stressing that symptoms, not birthdays, should dictate treatment. While some see value in identifying reversible causes like obesity, the medical community largely deems the policy premature and potentially harmful, especially as guidelines for female service members remain unclear.
