In a dramatic escalation, U.S. President Donald Trump confirms that key Iranian nuclear facilities — Natanz, Fordow, and Arak — have been completely destroyed in precision strikes. Warning Tehran of more devastation to come, Trump declares that additional targets can be eliminated “in minutes” if Iran does not choose peace. The strikes come after days of rising tensions in the Middle East, with support from Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Meanwhile, schools are closed and public gatherings banned across Israel as fears of retaliation grow. Is this the brink of a wider war?

Senators Cory Booker and Ted Cruz engaged in a fiery exchange during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on threats to federal judges. As Cruz accused Democrats of remaining silent during threats against conservative justices, Booker pushed back, calling the remarks “dangerous” and a “patent lie.” The tense back-and-forth highlighted rising political divisions over judicial safety, enforcement of protest laws, and the legacy of Trump-era rhetoric. The hearing, titled "The Supposedly Least Dangerous Branch," underscored growing concerns about the politicization of the judiciary and partisan responses to violence and intimidation.
