Summary

Israel took out a major gas field yesterday, which is sending oil prices surging. Behind the scenes, President Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly had a significant disagreement and falling out.

Many Californians are expressing outrage at Vanity Fair over the way the magazine handled its hosting of the Oscars after-party.
