Hey, everybody. I'm Adam Parkamenco. I'm filling in for Mary Trump today, and we've got a lot to

unpack. This war with Iran is sending oil prices soaring while Vladimir Putin crashes in billions,

cashes in billions, I should say. Trump is melting down on the campaign trail. No shocker there.

And as the Epstein

scandal explodes again and the political fallout here at home is only getting more chaotic. With that,

let's dive in. Thank you all for being here today.

In his first public comments since taking power after the killing of his father,

Iran's new supreme leader struck a defiant tone today.

In his statements carried by Iranian state media, he vowed Iran would continue blocking the state

of Hormuz, one of the world's most critical oil routes that we've discussed here, and promised

revenge for what he called the blood of the martyrs. Just hours later, Israel launched a new round of

airstrikes in Beirut, targeting what military said was Hezbollah infrastructure. The strikes

hit central parts of the city, sending smoke and debris into residential neighborhoods,

filled with bars and restaurants. For residents already displaced by evacuation orders

and weeks of bombardment, the attacks reinforced fears that even areas once considered relatively safe may no longer be off limits.

And this morning, Israeli airstrikes also hit several cars along the seaside in Beirut's Ramlet, Al-Baiata neighborhood, I believe, leaving bloodied sand along the sidewalk and sending

people scrambling and panic. In addition, the Associated Press reports that pro-Iranian hackers

are escalating cyber attacks as the war continues. You may have seen this story, targeting

U.S. companies in critical infrastructure like water plants, hospitals,

and defense contractors. Now, experts warn these attacks are meant to create chaos and disrupt the

American war, creating chaos, sounds like our president, with one recent strike hitting U.S.

medical device company, Stryker. Since the U.S. Israeli assault began, about 2,000 people have been killed, most of them in Iran.
