Today is Tuesday, April 7th. We're talking about President Trump's renewed ultimatum for Iran,

as his deadline to begin destroying the country's infrastructure is now just hours away.

Also, a closely watched election happening today and a moving tribute from space that brought

record-breaking Artemis two astronauts to tears. Plus, how a new court ruling could influence the

debate over prediction markets, why a music festival headliner is causing worldwide controversy,

and who's celebrating a March Madness Championship for the first time in 37 years. Those

stories and even more news coming up. Welcome to The Newsworthy, all the day's news in less than 15 minutes. I'm Erica, Mandy.

Thanks so much for being here. Let's do this. President Trump now says Iran could be taken out in one night,

and that could be tonight. At a news conference yesterday, Trump doubled down on his threat to

destroy every Iranian bridge and power plant unless Iran's new leaders agree to reopen the

Strait of Hormuz by 8 p.m. Eastern. If it comes to that, Trump says it will take Iran 100 years

to rebuild. He brushed off concerns that his plans might violate the Geneva Convention, meant to

limit dangers to civilians. Trump said the Iranian people would be willing to suffer in exchange

for freedom from the Iranian regime. Democrats in Congress say Trump is out of control and his

comments are pure insanity. And they're demanding Republican leaders call Congress back into session this week

for a vote to end the war. But most GOP lawmakers have supported the president's efforts and have not said

much about his latest threats. Meanwhile, as of this morning, the Iranian government is still showing

no interest in surrendering. And Iran is still under attack regardless of tonight's deadline.

Just yesterday, Israel announced it killed the head of intelligence for Iran's military, and it hit a second Iranian petrochemical facility

in just a matter of days. A U.S.-based rights group says so far, more than 3,500 people have been killed in

Iran during the war. About 1,500 have been killed in Israel's attacks in Lebanon,

and dozens more have died from Iran's retaliatory strikes in Israel and Gulf Arab nations.
