Summary

This week as famine deepens in Gaza, we trace the humanitarian catastrophe to its roots: decades of failed diplomacy, strategic blockades, and the silent complicity of global powers. We also look at Jacksonville, Florida, as outrage mounts over a viral video showing a Black man assaulted during a traffic stop.

We also examine why sealed documents in the Kohberger case remain out of public reach, raising questions about transparency in high-profile trials. Meanwhile, the name “Epstein” re-emerges, and reportedly Attorney General Pam Bondi delivered the news to Donald Trump about his ties to those files back in May.

Then, in a twist that defies political precedent, Trump and DNI Director Tulsi Gabbard accuse former President Obama of treason—sparking what they claim is an official investigation. And on Capitol Hill, the Kennedy Center finds itself at the center of a culture war, with House Republicans tying federal funding to a rebranding of its opera house in honor of Melania Trump.
