Summary

Aaron McIntire reports on the FBI’s hunt for leakers behind CNN’s false claim that U.S. strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities failed, with the CIA confirming severe damage to Iran’s program. White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt warns leakers face jail time, while Trump and SecDef Pete Hegseth plan a press conference to address Iran’s crippled capabilities. At the NATO summit, Trump likens the Israel-Iran conflict to a schoolyard fight, dismissing negotiations with a defeated Iran. Congressman Chip Roy slams libertarian open-border advocates, citing American deaths like Jocelyn Nungaray’s. NYC’s socialist mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani vows to fight “Trump’s fascism” with free services and sanctuary policies, prompting Border Czar Tom Homan to promise intensified ICE raids. The FBI probes hospitals for “meatball surgery” on minors, and a quirky story highlights a couple’s rock-paper-scissors name change at their wedding.
