      <video:title>Sen. Murphy vs. Trump&apos;s corruption | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump’s blatant, sometimes open corruption can feel disorienting. While other White Houses have made a point to show their administration is not for sale, this one has seemingly done the opposite — making a big show of their transactional relationship with corporations, Silicon Valley, and other governments, given the right price.

This kind of pay-to-play politics was the focus of a recent forum in Washington, DC, hosted by the American Economic Liberties Project, a think tank focused on corporate consolidation, breaking up monopolies, and accountability for rogue businesses. It’s also an interest of Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT), who has made this anti-corruption a focus of his message and policy proposals since the 2024 election. Vox’s Astead Herndon interviewed Sen. Murphy at this live event. He asked about the effectiveness of this message, what role the Democratic Party also plays in Washington’s current culture of open corruption, and if there&apos;s anything the public can do to push back.

      <video:title>Why Tucker Carlson thinks polling MAGA is useless #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump promised voters in 2024 that his policies would be America First. But he went back on that promise with multiple foreign interventions, including the war in Iran. So why does polling of MAGA voters show overwhelming support for this conflict?

Today, Explained host Noel King asks Carlson about this and more on a new episode of the podcast.

      <video:title>Former DOGE staffers testify in NEH grant lawsuit</video:title>
      <video:description>A federal judge has ruled that deposition videos of two former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffers can remain online, rejecting claims that potential embarrassment outweighed public interest in the case. The former DOGE employees, Justin Fox and Nathan Cavanaugh, testified that they used OpenAI’s ChatGPT to identify grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) they believed violated President Donald Trump’s executive order targeting “radical and wasteful” diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

Determinations of which grants to cut were made by feeding short summaries of projects into ChatGPT and asking the chatbot if there was any connection to DEI, according to discovery materials released by the American Historical Association in March as part of a lawsuit against the NEH. The DOGE employees appeared to rely on the technology to compile a list of 1,477 grants to terminate, nearly every active award made during the Biden administration. The cuts clawed back more than $100 million, nearly half the federal agency’s budget, throwing organizations into turmoil and forcing some projects to shut down.

      <video:description>The U.S. and Israeli war with Iran has caused a rare rift among conservatives, with several influential figures on the right condemning the war. A recent poll shows that while most Republicans support the war, young Republicans appear to be an outlier. White House correspondent Liz Landers spoke to some of them at a Turning Point USA event in Washington.

      <video:title>Pope Leo&apos;s political voice and how much influence he holds</video:title>

      <video:title>How an A note became an A note</video:title>
      <video:description>The Gray Area is taking a short break this week — but we’ve got something special for you.

Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO

We’re dropping an episode from one of our favorite podcasts, Unexplainable. In it, host Emily Siner explores deceptively simple questions: What is a musical note? And how did something as fundamental as the note A become standardized across the world?

It’s a story about science, history, and the hidden complexity behind the sounds we listen to every day.

0:47 The note that the orchestra tunes to 
3:05 What is the current standard for the note A?
6:57 Why would we standardize A?
15:16 The history of pitch standards

We would love to hear from you. To tell us what you thought of this episode, email us at thegrayarea@vox.com or leave us a voicemail at 1-800-214-5749. Your comments and questions help us make a better show.

And you can watch new episodes of The Gray Area on YouTube.

      <video:description>Tucker Carlson invited conservative provocateur Nick Fuentes on his show last October. Fuentes is part of a growing number of young, conservative men sharing openly antisemitic, racist, and misogynistic ideas online. But Carlson’s critics say he went easy on Fuentes, which lent his ideas legitimacy. 

Today, Explained host Noel King asked Carlson about this emerging type of young conservative, and Carlson points to discrimination against white people as the real problem.

      <video:title>WATCH: Trump says U.S. military objectives in Iran ‘nearing completion&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump addressed the nation in a prime-time address Wednesday for the first time since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes against Iran.

With the Iran war in its fifth week, Trump said the military’s “core strategic objectives are nearing completion.”

While the president’s Cabinet has given differing and sometimes contradictory reasons why the U.S. attacked Israel, Trump said Wednesday that he’s following through on a campaign promise to keep Iran from accessing nuclear weapons.

“Our objectives are very simple and clear: We are systematically dismantling the regime&apos;s ability to threaten America or project power outside of their borders,” he said. “That means eliminating Iran&apos;s navy, which is now absolutely destroyed, hurting the air force and their missile program at levels never seen before and annihilating their defense industrial base.”

As the conflict has dragged on, polls have shown majorities of Americans opposing the war, though Republicans remain largely supportive, and growing concerned about rising oil prices and affordability. Military casualties climbed to 13 American service members killed in the conflict. Some 1,600 civilians have been killed in Iran, with thousands more wounded, according to the Human Rights Activists News Agency. At least 50 people have been killed in surrounding Gulf nations.

      <video:title>WATCH: Trump tells countries reliant on Strait of Hormuz to ‘just take it’</video:title>
      <video:description>While making his case to Americans on the Iran war, President Donald Trump urged countries that receive oil via the Strait of Hormuz, a key shipping route for the world&apos;s oil and gas supply, to “grab it and cherish it.”

The critical passageway has become a focal point since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes against Iran on Feb. 28. Iran’s threats and response to the attacks, including targeting surrounding Gulf nations, have nearly halted oil tankers from going through the strait.

The countries that receive oil through the strait “should take the lead in protecting the oil that they so desperately depend on,” Trump said, echoing previous statements as the conflict enters its fifth week.

His message to these countries: “No. 1: Buy oil from the United States of America. We have so much. No. 2: Build up some delayed courage — should have done it before, should have done it with us — go to the strait and just take it.”

Trump said Iran has been “essentially decimated.”

“The hard part is done, so it should be easy,” he added.

Trump addressed the nation in a prime-time address Wednesday for the first time since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes against Iran. As the conflict has dragged on, polls have shown majorities of Americans opposing the war, though Republicans remain largely supportive, and growing concerns about rising oil prices and affordability.

      <video:title>WATCH: Despite rising gas prices, &apos;we&apos;re in great shape for the future,&apos; Trump says of Iran war</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump blamed the rise in gas prices on Iran’s attacks against neighboring countries in the Middle East, which he said have “nothing to do” with the ongoing war.

“This short-term increase has been entirely the result of the Iranian regime launching deranged terror attacks against commercial oil tankers in neighboring countries that have nothing to do with the conflict,” Trump said of gas prices during his primetime address at the White House on Wednesday.

The president’s comments come as AAA reported Wednesday that the national average price for regular gas is $4.06 per gallon — more than a dollar per gallon higher than it was  one month ago.

The president called Iran’s attacks against commercial oil tankers “yet more proof” that the country’s regime can “never be trusted with nuclear weapons.” If Iran were ever to get a nuclear weapon, he said, the regime will “use them quickly” and the consequences would be “decades of extortion, economic pain and instability worse than we can ever imagine.”

The U.S. has “has never been better prepared economically to confront this threat,” Trump said, citing stock market highs, business investments and domestic oil and gas production.

“There is no country like us anywhere in the world, and we are in great shape for the future,” Trump said.

The president addressed the nation in prime time Wednesday for the first time since the U.S. and Israel attacked Iran.

      <video:title>WATCH: Trump says U.S. will hit Iran &apos;very hard&apos; if it makes a move for nuclear material</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump issued a new threat against Iran on Wednesday, saying the U.S. would hit &quot;very hard&quot; if the country made a move for nuclear material.

In a primetime address from the White House, Trump said the U.S. has obliterated Iran&apos;s nuclear sites, and that it &quot;would take months to get near the nuclear dust.&quot;

&quot;If we see them make a move, even a move for it, we’ll hit them with missiles very hard again,&quot; Trump said.

The president said the U.S.would hit Iran &quot;extremely hard over the next two to three weeks.&quot; At other points of his address, he said the mission was “nearing completion,” and that discussions are ongoing.

&quot;We are going to bring them back to the Stone Ages, where they belong,&quot; he added.

Polls have shown majorities of Americans oppose military action in Iran, and also oppose U.S. troops on the ground there. Gas prices have soared to over $4 a gallon, heightening Americans&apos; economic concerns. Trump described the sticker shock as &quot;temporary.&quot;

&quot;The United States has never been better prepared economically to confront this threat. You all know that,&quot; he said earlier in his remarks.

      <video:title>The media’s year of ‘change or die’</video:title>
      <video:description>The media and entertainment industry faces a period of great turmoil, including unprecedented business and political pressures. The Ellison family took over CBS and Warner Brothers-Discovery. News organizations like The Washington Post have undergone mass layoffs. Journalists have accused the Trump administration of widespread censorship attempts. And federal funding was slashed for public media. Evan Shapiro, the so-called “Media Universe Cartographer,” spoke to Geoff Bennett about this tumult and the future.

      <video:title>Gisèle Pelicot says shame must change sides</video:title>
      <video:description>Rape survivor Gisèle Pelicot says the videos of her being assaulted by her husband and dozens of strangers are &quot;etched in my memory forever.&quot;

&quot;We cannot describe videos of such horror,&quot; she told PBS News Hour co-anchor Amna Nawaz. &quot;So it helped me to think that this woman was not me because she was just like a rag doll, who had no more soul, no more life, who was being abused.&quot;

Pelicot discovered in 2020 that her husband had been repeatedly drugging and raping her for close to a decade, inviting dozens of strangers to abuse her.

During her landmark public mass rape trial in 2024, Pelicot waived her right to anonymity, and all 51 men were found guilty.

To prepare for the trial, Pelicot’s lawyers encouraged her to watch the videos of her assaults, which she’d previously avoided. Pelicot recalled feeling she needed to &quot;expose&quot; her abusers so they faced the consequences for what they did.

&quot;It was for them to bear the burden of shame, not the victims,&quot; she said.

Pelicot spoke to Nawaz about her experience, her recently published memoir, &quot;A Hymn to Life: Shame Must Change Sides,&quot; and the global reckoning over sexual assault. Watch the full conversation Wednesday night on PBS News Hour.

      <video:title>Trump&apos;s war on birthright citizenship</video:title>
      <video:description>Is the Supreme Court considering a radical reinterpretation of the 14th amendment?

President Donald Trump has been on a crusade to end birthright citizenship for years. Challenging the long-held legal consensus that anyone born in the United States is granted citizenship, he signed an executive order stripping that right away from the children of undocumented parents and temporary visa holders. 

The executive order after returning to the White House set in motion a series of lawsuits challenging Trump’s ability to make sweeping changes to birthright citizenship. And now it’s headed to the Supreme Court in a case called Trump v. Barbara.

The 14th Amendment was passed to guarantee citizenship to freed enslaved people and their children, but was later clarified to apply to anybody born on US soil with a few very specific exceptions. For well over 100 years, birthright citizenship has been enshrined in the Constitution with that understanding. 

In Trump v. Barbara, the Trump administration claims that the law applies to those who are not just born in the United States but also “owe allegiance” to it — except…the words “owe allegiance” don’t appear anywhere in the 14th Amendment. 

The plaintiffs are representing a group of people affected by Trump’s executive order, and their argument is simple: Leave birthright citizenship alone.

      <video:title>Does eating tofu impact your masculinity? #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>Despite what internet trolls might say, eating plant-based protein does not make you any less “manly.” Eating soy foods doesn’t change men’s hormonal makeup, and it’s well-established that soy products are not only safe to eat but also confer a number of health benefits, especially when replacing processed and red meats.

      <video:title>&apos;Go get your own oil&apos;: Trump lashes out at allies as Iran war chokes key oil route</video:title>
      <video:description>On Tuesday, President Trump said the war with Iran will likely last another two to three weeks. But the Strait of Hormuz continues to be a problem for the U.S., and Trump is again lashing out at allies for not doing more to help as American gas prices reached their highest level in years. William Brangham reports.

In an 8-1 decision, the justices sided with a Christian counselor who argued that the law violated her First Amendment rights.

      <video:title>Communities rebrand César Chavez Day as abuse allegations taint his legacy</video:title>
      <video:description>Just two weeks ago, cities across the country were finalizing plans for celebrations of Cesar Chavez Day. Then an investigative report from The New York Times revealed allegations that Chavez sexually abused women and girls for years. Now, many cities are cancelling those plans, and a day that was once a celebration has become a painful reminder of his now tarnished legacy. Stephanie Sy reports.

      <video:description>The Pentagon is denying a report by The Financial Times that Defense Secretary Hegseth’s stockbroker was seeking to make large investments in major defense companies in the days before the U.S. and Israel struck Iran. That report is raising more concerns about the people in and around the Trump administration who seem to be profiting in unusual ways. White House correspondent Liz Landers reports.

      <video:title>Israel passes controversial death penalty law</video:title>
      <video:description>Israel passed a law Monday making the death penalty by hanging the default punishment for Palestinians convicted of murdering Israelis. Far-right lawmakers had pushed for the measure for years and cheered its passage. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed up in person to vote in favor of the bill.

The bill has faced criticism from both Israeli and Palestinian rights groups, with one calling it discriminatory by design. The law is set to take effect in 30 days, though it&apos;s expected to face legal challenges in Israel&apos;s Supreme Court.

      <video:title>Jon Meacham’s warning to those in power</video:title>
      <video:description>Jon Meacham is hopeful about the future of America. The presidential historian and bestselling author spoke with Amna Nawaz about why he wrote his latest book, “American Struggle,” which looks back at historical texts and speeches to explore more about who we are today. They spoke about Joe Biden’s legacy, the one piece of historical text he thinks we all should read, and how he still finds hope as America marks 250 years.

      <video:title>What to know as Artemis II prepares to orbit moon</video:title>
      <video:description>The first crewed lunar mission in almost 50 years is slated to launch as early as April 1. The test flight, lasting about 10 days, will send four astronauts around the moon in what could set a record for the longest distance humans have traveled from Earth.

The mission will be the second space trip for NASA’s Space Launch System rocket and Orion capsule but the first carrying humans. In 2022, Artemis I was launched as an uncrewed test flight, traveling about the same path that Artemis II is set to travel.

A rehearsal was conducted in early February ahead of the original launch day, after being postponed due to cold weather. A hydrogen leak and additional tech repairs pushed the launch off for months.

Once it is launched,  Artemis II will orbit the Earth twice before being propelled towards the moon, creating a figure-eight pattern before returning back to Earth.

The Artemis II test flight will pave the way for the Artemis III, which aims to take humans to the moon around 2027.

      <video:title>Pope Leo vs. White House on waging war</video:title>
      <video:description>Pope Leo XIV used his Palm Sunday homily to criticize &quot;those who wage war,&quot; as the war in Iran stretched into its fifth week.

&quot;This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war,&quot; Leo said during Mass in St. Peter&apos;s Square. &quot;He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them.&quot;

The pope also quoted the Book of Isaiah from the Old Testament of the Bible: &quot;Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: Your hands are full of blood.”

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked about Leo&apos;s remarks during a news briefing on Monday and said U.S. leaders have turned to prayer &quot;during the most turbulent times in our nation&apos;s history.&quot;

&quot;I don&apos;t think there&apos;s anything wrong with our military leaders or with the president calling on the American people to pray for our service members and those who are serving our country overseas,&quot; she said. &quot;In fact, I think it&apos;s a very noble thing to do, and if you talk to many service members, they will tell you they appreciate the prayers and support.&quot;

Last week, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth prayed for &quot;overwhelming violence&quot; against enemies during a Christian worship service at the Pentagon.

      <video:title>Iran hits Israeli oil refinery as Trump escalates threats in widening regional war</video:title>
      <video:description>The war with Iran has entered its second month, and President Trump says the onus is on Tehran to quickly agree to end it or face the widespread destruction of its energy resources, including power plants and oil hubs. But Iran remains publicly defiant, calling U.S. demands &quot;unrealistic,&quot; and continuing its attacks on Israel and the region. Nick Schifrin reports.

      <video:title>How next-gen nuclear could help meet energy demands – and the risks involved</video:title>
      <video:description>The Trump administration has rolled back support for many forms of clean energy. One exception is nuclear power. The president wants to quadruple U.S. nuclear capacity by 2050, and a new generation of advanced reactors in development could signal the dawn of a new nuclear age. Paul Solman reports for our series, Tipping Point.

      <video:title>2 surprising reasons your tech devices could get pricier</video:title>
      <video:description>Sony is raising prices on its range of PlayStation 5 consoles starting April 2, citing “continued pressures in the global economic landscape.”

Aside from President Donald Trump&apos;s tariffs, there are two surprising factors that are pushing up the price of the video game console — and could be a bad sign for other consumer electronics too. Those factors: the artificial intelligence boom and the Iran war.

The AI data center boom has created a severe shortage of random-access memory chips, used for high-speed, short-term memory in phones, computers and game consoles. The three major producers of RAM chips have all cut back on producing chips for consumer products in exchange for higher-margin chips for data centers, and prices for memory have spiked.

Iran’s effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz has also reduced the global supply of helium, a critical component in the production of computer chips. Nearly a third of the world’s helium comes from Qatar, which has struggled to export helium through the strait. Iran has also attacked helium production lines in the Gulf nation.

PBS News’ Tim McPhillips breaks down how these shortages could impact your next tech purchase.

      <video:title>Rising colorectal cancer rates in younger adults prompt new awareness push</video:title>
      <video:description>If you’re under 50, it’s likely that colorectal cancer isn’t on your radar, but it should be. Once considered an older age disease, rates are skyrocketing among young adults. Deema Zein spoke with two people diagnosed at an early age, and discussed the rise with Dr. Robin Mendelsohn, a gastroenterologist and co-director of the Center for Young Onset Colorectal and Gastrointestinal Cancers.

      <video:description>Monday on the News Hour, President Trump threatens to seize one of Iran&apos;s oil hubs as the wider war engulfs the region. TSA workers are finally getting paid, but lines remain long at airports nationwide amid the partial government shutdown. Plus, companies bet on nuclear energy, building a new generation of advanced reactors to meet growing demand.

      <video:title>Austria bans social media for children under 14</video:title>
      <video:description>Austria is the latest nation to draw up sweeping social media restrictions for young people. The nation&apos;s governing coalition agreed in principle on Friday to ban social media for children under the age of 14. High-tech methods of age verification will be employed and officials said legislation will be drafted by the end of June.

The Austrian government also plans to teach media literacy and dealing with artificial intelligence in schools. In 2024, Australia passed the first social media ban for children under 16. Since then, France, Spain, Denmark, and other nations have announced plans of their own.

Guest: Rebecca Goldstein, author of The Mattering Instinct

      <video:title>How multiple wars could affect Israeli elections</video:title>
      <video:description>Israel is a nation at war, besieging both Iran and Lebanon. It is also absorbing constant Iranian attacks after emerging from nearly two and a half years of war following the Oct. 7 terrorist attacks.

In a special edition of Compass Points from Israel, host Nick Schifrin sits down with The New York Times’ Ronen Bergman to understand Israel&apos;s role in the Iran war.

“The Israelis realize that this is going nowhere. They don&apos;t understand why this is happening, and they thought that this is going to end with the regime change,” Bergman said.

Bergman added that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hasn’t been able to deliver closure regarding Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon — and that will have an effect on future elections.

“It&apos;s clear that even when you have the best intelligence, the best air force, the best combination of the two, even when you are able to send the pagers or kill the supreme leader ... the chief villain, it&apos;s still not enough and it will never be enough unless you will have a closing diplomatic negotiating deal or leg to this,” Bergman added.

Compass Points from PBS News analyzes prominent international affairs topics and America’s role in a shifting world, breaking down global conflicts, rising tensions, and their implications for U.S. interests. Visit the PBS News website to watch this week&apos;s episode.

      <video:title>John Bolton wanted war with Iran — but not like this | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Ambassador John Bolton, President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser, pushed for war with Iran for 20 years — but not like this. For years, even decades, John Bolton has argued for regime change in Iran and for America to take a proactive military role to make that happen. Bolton served as the US ambassador to the United Nations under George W. Bush and, later, as national security advisor to Donald Trump during his first term.

The partnership with Trump was fleeting, however. He did not leave the administration on good terms and has been a critic of Trump since. He’s even been indicted by Trump’s Department of Justice for the mishandling of classified documents. Despite that back story, it is still a bit confusing to hear one of America’s foremost Iran critics break with the Trump administration on this war. How did Trump lose the Republican party’s biggest Iran War Hawk? And why?

      <video:description>“How soon could Iran get nuclear weapons? About 72 hours by sending a wire transfer to the central bank in Pyongyang, North Korea, and having North Korea deliver one of their warheads,” said John Bolton, President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser.

He spoke with Vox’s Astead Herndon about whether or not there was an imminent threat from Iran ahead of the war for this week’s Saturday episode of Today, Explained.

      <video:description>Is moving in with your significant other overrated?

For generations, we’ve been taught that after you meet someone and fall in love, you eventually have to move in together. — because moving in is a signal that the relationship is serious.

But a growing number of couples are opting out of that last step. Meet Mike and Susan. They’ve been together for 23 years but have never lived together… and they don’t plan to.

This arrangement has a name: living apart together, or LAT, and it’s more common than you might think. Watch the full video here on YouTube to learn about Mike and Susan’s love story.

This video is presented by @T-Mobile: Broadband. T-Mobile: Broadband doesn&apos;t have a say in our editorial decisions, but they make videos like this one possible.

      <video:title>What&apos;s next after House Republicans reject Senate deal to end DHS shutdown</video:title>
      <video:description>It&apos;s been a dramatic day in the halls of Congress. Early Friday, the Senate unanimously passed a plan to end the shutdown for most of the Department of Homeland Security. But within hours, Speaker Mike Johnson rejected it because it didn&apos;t include money for ICE and Border Patrol. House Republicans are now pushing a different approach and risking a longer shutdown. Lisa Desjardins reports.

      <video:title>Ukraine’s drone defense tech reshapes combat as warfare evolves</video:title>
      <video:description>Earlier this month, President Trump told journalists he didn’t want Ukraine’s assistance with drone defense, saying Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy was the last person he’d ever ask for help. But during the Iran war, Gulf countries have been lining up to request Ukraine&apos;s guidance on how to counter drones. Special correspondent Simon Ostrovsky reports from Ukraine.

      <video:title>Army veteran faces conspiracy charges after participating in anti-ICE protest</video:title>
      <video:description>When a U.S. Army veteran was arrested on conspiracy charges for his role in an anti-ICE protest in Spokane, Washington, it was the first time an American had faced those charges in connection with the protests. Some legal experts saw it as an escalation in efforts to suppress and criminalize First Amendment rights. In collaboration with the Pulitzer Center, Aaron Glantz reports.

      <video:title>Inside the U.S.–Israel alliance and how it led to war with Iran</video:title>
      <video:description>The war against Iran is a fight that Israel has wanted for decades. How did Netanyahu convince President Trump to act? Can a war launched together be ended together? And is there a limit to the U.S.-Israeli partnership? Compass Points moderator Nick Schifrin discusses these questions with Ronen Bergman of The New York Times, one of the premier investigative journalists in the Middle East.

      <video:description>Something is definitely happening in the AI world, but how seriously should we take it? Is this another hype cycle or a genuine inflection point?

Sean Illing talks with journalist Kelsey Piper (formerly of Vox, now at The Argument) about what’s changed, why AI “agents” are a different beast than yesterday’s chatbots, and why the debate is stuck between two lazy positions: total panic or total shrug. They get into the incentives driving the labs, what “alignment” even means, and why the real fear isn’t Terminator-style robots, but powerful systems sliding into everything before we’re ready.

      <video:title>Why some couples are happier living apart</video:title>
      <video:description>For generations, we’ve been taught that if you want to move a relationship forward, you have to follow a specific set of steps: Meet someone, fall in love, and eventually, move in together. Because moving in is a signal that the relationship is serious.

But a growing number of couples are opting out of that last step. Mike and Susan have been together for 23 years, but they’ve never lived together…and they don’t plan to.

This arrangement has a name: “living apart together” (or LAT), and it’s more common than you might think. Between 2000 and 2019, the number of married couples living separately rose by more than 25 percent. And it’s particularly popular with couples later in life, generally people in their 50s or 60s who are retired. 

So if sharing a home is the ultimate sign of love and commitment, why are some couples deciding not to do it at all? And is living together actually the best model for every relationship? Or is it just the one we’ve normalized?

      <video:title>Trump confirms he used a mail-in ballot in Florida election</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump said on Thursday he used a mail-in ballot to vote in Florida because &quot;I&apos;m president,&quot; despite previously calling the voting method &quot;cheating.&quot;

&quot;I&apos;m president of the United States, and because of the fact that I&apos;m president of the United States, I did a mail-in ballot for elections that took place in Florida, because I felt I should be here,&quot; Trump told PBS News&apos; Liz Landers during a Cabinet meeting.

&quot;I decided that I was going to vote by mail-in ballot because I couldn&apos;t be there because I had a lot of different things,&quot; Trump added. &quot;But, you know, we have exceptions for mail-in ballots.&quot;

Voting records show that Trump cast a mail-in ballot in Tuesday&apos;s special election in Palm Beach County, Florida. The president was in Palm Beach, where he is registered to vote, between March 20 and March 22, when in-person early voting was available.

Trump has long criticized mail-in voting and is currently pushing for legislation that would overhaul elections, including by limiting who can cast mail ballots.

“Mail-in voting means mail-in cheating,” he said Monday during an event in Memphis. “I call it mail-in cheating, and we got to do something about it all.”

      <video:title>Trump extends deadline for Iran to reopen oil route or face power plant strikes</video:title>
      <video:description>Earlier this week, President Trump said Friday was the deadline for Iran to open the Strait of Hormuz or face a resumption of attacks on energy infrastructure. Late Thursday, Trump said he&apos;s extending his deadline until April 6. The extension came after a Cabinet meeting that included an update on the war. Lisa Desjardins reports.

      <video:title>WATCH: Hegseth prays for &apos;overwhelming violence&apos; against enemies</video:title>
      <video:description>As the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran continues, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth prayed for &quot;overwhelming violence&quot; against enemies during a Christian worship service at the Pentagon on Wednesday.

Hegseth recited a prayer that he said was read by a military chaplain to the troops who conducted the raid to capture then-President Nicolás Maduro of Venezuela.

&quot;Let every round find its mark against the enemies of righteousness and our great nation,&quot; he prayed. &quot;Give them wisdom in every decision, endurance for the trial ahead, unbreakable unity, and overwhelming violence of action against those who deserve no mercy.&quot;

Hegseth started a monthly Christian worship series last year at the Department of Defense. This service was the first since the war with Iran began. 

Hegseth&apos;s insertion of his Christian faith and rhetoric has come under scrutiny, including his interest in the Crusades, the medieval wars in which Christians tried to reclaim the Holy Land from Muslims.

Americans United for Separation of Church and State filed a lawsuit this week to enforce a public records request for internal communications about the monthly services. The group also filed a similar suit against the Labor Department.

      <video:title>How we fell for the carrot vision myth</video:title>
      <video:description>We all heard the myth while growing up: Carrots are good for your eyesight. Or maybe even: Carrots can make you see in the dark. But where did this myth come from? And is there any basis in science? 

It turns out that carrots are chock-full of vitamin A, which is necessary for vision. But most people today get enough vitamin A in their normal diet, and eating an excess of the orange vegetable won’t boost your eyesight or grant you night vision. In fact, consuming more vitamin A than your body can handle (via supplements instead of natural fruits and vegetables) can be detrimental to your health. 

The origins of this common myth actually lie in World War II. 

During the Blitz (the German Luftwaffe’s bombing campaign against London and other British cities), the British government had several important reasons to persuade both its citizens and the wider world that eating carrots improved eyesight. The Ministry of Information and Ministry of Food worked together to spread some shockingly impactful carrot-based propaganda. And the myth remains prevalent to this day. 

Vox producer Nate Krieger spoke to an ophthalmologist and a World War II propaganda historian to get to the bottom of the carrot vision myth. This video explores the impetus behind this strangely targeted propaganda campaign, explains why it was so successful, and reintroduces the world to Dr. Carrot.

      <video:title>Supreme Court hears mail-in ballot case that could impact the midterms</video:title>
      <video:description>The Supreme Court heard a case that could reshape how millions of mail-in ballots are counted in this fall&apos;s elections. Some states count mail-in ballots that arrive after Election Day as long as they are postmarked by Election Day. The Republican National Committee is challenging that procedure. Ali Rogin discussed the case with Nate Persily, an election law scholar at Stanford University.

      <video:title>Geoff Bennett explores Black comedy’s history and cultural impact in &apos;Black Out Loud&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>In the 1990s, a remarkable wave of Black sitcoms and sketch comedy reshaped American television. Shows like “In Living Color” and “Living Single” reflected a wide range of Black life and helped broaden how millions of viewers understood Black experiences. That moment, and the long history that helped make it possible, are at the core of Geoff Bennett&apos;s new book, &quot;Black Out Loud.&quot;

      <video:title>Geoff Bennett on his new book and the ‘golden age’ of Black sitcoms</video:title>
      <video:description>The 1990s brought an unprecedented boom of Black sitcoms to televisions across the country, from the sketch comedy of “In Living Color” to popular shows like “A Different World” and “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” It’s a cultural moment Geoff Bennett explores in his new book, “Black Out Loud: The Revolutionary History of Black Comedy from Vaudeville to &apos;90s Sitcoms.” He joins Amna Nawaz for a special episode of Settle In to discuss the conditions that allowed these shows to flourish, the long lineage of Black comedians who paved the way and the lasting effects of an era often called the “golden age” of Black sitcoms.

      <video:title>What we know about the collision at LaGuardia #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>A regional jet collided with a fire truck at New York City&apos;s LaGuardia Airport around 11:40 p.m. Sunday evening.

The fire truck had been responding to a separate incident and was crossing the runway as the Air Canada Regional Express jet Flight 8646 was landing.

The entire front of the aircraft was destroyed in the collision and the fire truck was left flipped on its side.

The flight from Montreal was carrying 72 passengers and four crew members. Both the pilot and co-pilot from the Air Canada jet were killed and dozens of others were injured including two officers from the fire truck.

The airport reopened Monday afternoon at reduced capacity following a full ground stop. A National Transportation Safety Board investigation is ongoing.

      <video:title>What is the Strait of Hormuz and why is it important</video:title>
      <video:description>What is the Strait of Hormuz and why are we hearing so much about it right now?

The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow channel connecting the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. It’s the only access ships in the Persian Gulf have to the Indian Ocean and the rest of the shipping world.

At its most narrow point, the strait is only 24 miles wide and sandwiched between Iran and Oman. Vessels going in or out are confined to two, two-mile-wide shipping lanes separated by just two miles themselves.

One-fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas (or LNG) shipments pass through the strait every year. And many countries rely on the crude that comes out of the Strait of Hormuz. China, for example, is the biggest consumer of Iranian oil relying on deliveries from the strait for 45% of its annual consumption.

After the U.S. and Israel launched their joint attack on Iran in February, Iran launched a series of drone attacks and missile threats to effectively close the Strait of Hormuz to most traffic.

Iran’s blockade has caused oil prices to soar from $65 a barrel to well above $100, and markets around the world are in crisis.

And with the strait effectively blocked, hundreds of ships are essentially stuck waiting on either side. Coupled with the destruction of oil and gas infrastructure across the region, energy production in the Middle East is grinding to a halt, sending ripple effects through the world.

      <video:title>Nancy Pelosi explains her optimism | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Nancy Pelosi&apos;s record of impact is undeniable. Over more than three decades in Congress, she is frequently cited among the effective legislative operators of her generation. Pelosi held together the votes for the Affordable Care Act, twice ascended to the speaker&apos;s chair, and built a fundraising machine that reshaped how her party competes.

Last week, at the SXSW conference in Austin, Texas, Vox’s Astead Herndon spoke with Pelosi about that record. In front of a packed crowd of innovators at the Vox Media Podcast Stage, he asked Pelosi about key moments in her career, her unshakable faith in the American electorate, and the outlook for November&apos;s midterm elections.

Pelosi is preparing to leave Congress at the end of this term, and it comes at a time of profound uncertainty for the Democratic Party. Republicans control the White House. Her party&apos;s polling favorability has reached historic lows, and a once solid liberal majority seems to be fraying on lines of age, race, and class. There&apos;s no consensus about what went wrong or who should lead next. Regardless, Pelosi says she has absolute confidence that Democrats will take back the House this year.

      <video:title>How joining a sports team later in life could be the secret to living longer #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>For more than 20 years, the Granny Basketball League has showcased the 1920s women&apos;s 6-on-6 game of basketball complete with the classic rules and “bloomer” uniforms.

From humble beginnings in Iowa, the league has gone national with over 50 teams and an annual tournament. It provides fierce competition and fun for players and fans, but it’s also redefining how retirees find purpose. Research shows it might even be helping them live longer. 

Our lifestyles evolve as we get older, but we’re always seeking connection, better health, and forward momentum. For the ladies of the Granny Basketball League, being on a team checks all these boxes.</video:description>

      <video:title>Why is Nancy Pelosi so optimistic?</video:title>
      <video:description>Former House speaker Nancy Pelosi maintains her optimism about America, even in times of political violence and chaos. 

In front of a live audience on stage at SXSW in Austin, Rep. Pelosi (D-CA) spoke with Vox’s Astead Herndon about how the vision of America’s founders continues to drive her hope in the United States. Even after a mob came after her threatening to “put a bullet in my f-word head,” she said, she still continues to believe in the essential goodness of the American people.

      <video:title>Mamdani on his relationship with Trump</video:title>
      <video:description>While Zohran Mamdani was running to be the next mayor of New York, he traded sharp verbal barbs with President Donald Trump. Mamdani once said that his administration would be “Donald Trump’s worst nightmare,” while Trump falsely accused  Mamdani of being in the country illegally and called him a “Communist Lunatic.”

Now, after two Oval Office meetings with the president since he became mayor, Mamdani says the two men have a “productive relationship … that is also honest.”

“The president and I have many disagreements. We&apos;re not shy about them,” he told PBS News Hour co-anchor Amna Nawaz in an exclusive interview airing Friday. “We&apos;ve been public about them. We&apos;ve been private about them.”

One thing on which they’re “very much in agreement is a love of New York City,” Mamdani said.

The mayor noted that during his second White House meeting with Trump in February, he asked the president for billions of dollars in federal grants for a major affordable housing project in Queens. Mamdani said he has also shared “my continued belief that ICE raids are cruel and inhumane, that they do nothing to advance the cause of public safety.”

“I want to always be honest with the president and with the public about where those disagreements are, and also, that my job is not to litigate the disagreements, but to deliver for the people of New York City,” Mamdani said.

When asked how often he and the president speak, the mayor said he “will keep that between the two of us.”

      <video:title>Long TSA wait times? Here’s what to know</video:title>
      <video:description>Videos of passengers stuck in long airport security lines across the country have flooded social media this week. A partial government shutdown affecting TSA is to blame.

TSA agents continue to work without pay during a partial government shutdown. Around 50,000 TSA officers have now missed multiple paychecks since the shutdown begun on Feb. 14. The shutdown centers around disagreements over funding for the Department of Homeland Security and reforms to federal immigration enforcement policy.

That&apos;s left TSA agents under increased financial burden, with agents calling out in droves and some forced to find second jobs. Over 300 agents have quit altogether, amidst the third shutdown in less than a year.

For travelers, the reduced workforce has snarled security lines, with time at major airports like Houston&apos;s George Bush Intercontinental and Atlanta&apos;s Hartsfield-Jackson reaching beyond two hours.

PBS News breaks down what you need to know about the shutdown and how to find accurate security line times for your airport.

      <video:title>Trump promised a manufacturing boom, but factory jobs continue to decline</video:title>
      <video:description>The U.S. job market has been cooling, and it’s only getting harder for Americans to find a job. One sector that has proved tougher than most is manufacturing. President Trump has promised a manufacturing boom in both of his terms. While he has been able to get pledges for more factory investment, the real job numbers tell a different story so far.

      <video:title>WATCH: Zohran Mamdani says anti-Muslim rhetoric is ‘endemic&apos; to our politics</video:title>
      <video:description>While rhetoric disparaging Islam and Muslims is not new, “there&apos;s an unabashed nature to it” right now, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani told PBS News in an interview airing Friday.

“It is being echoed from the highest offices in this country,” he said in an exclusive interview with PBS News Hour co-anchor Amna Nawaz. “They do so without any sense of shame.”

Mamdani reacted to comments from Republican members of Congress in the aftermath of the U.S-Israel war in Iran and recent attacks at a Detroit-area synagogue and a Virginia university. Rep. Andy Ogles, R-Tenn., said earlier this month that “Muslims don&apos;t belong in American society” and “pluralism is a lie.” Rep. Randy Fine, R-Fla., called for “more Islamophobia, not less. Fear of Islam is rational,” while Rep. Andrew Clyde, R-Ga., has also proposed “no more Islamic immigration.”

Mamdani, the first Muslim to serve as New York City’s chief executive, noted that “there are very few who speak up in opposition to” the Islamophobia and anti-Muslim bigotry that is prevalent in the nation.

“It is not exclusive to any one political party,” he said. “It is endemic, frankly, to our politics.”

The mayor noted that he has “incredible” NYPD officers who keep him safe.

“My fear, frankly, is for those whose names we do not know, whose professions we do not know, who are seen and understood to be Muslim and will be attacked for it,” Mamdani said. “And, they will not have the protections that I do.”

      <video:title>Are team sports the secret to living longer?</video:title>
      <video:description>For more than 20 years, the Granny Basketball League has showcased the 1920s women&apos;s 6-on-6 game of basketball complete with the classic rules and “bloomer” uniforms.

From humble beginnings in Iowa, the league has gone national with over 50 teams and an annual tournament. It provides fierce competition and fun for players and fans, but it’s also redefining how retirees find purpose. Research shows it might even be helping them live longer. 

Our lifestyles evolve as we get older, but we’re always seeking connection, better health, and forward momentum. For the ladies of the Granny Basketball League, being on a team checks all these boxes.

      <video:title>States, cities sue over EPA climate change decison</video:title>
      <video:description>Two dozen Democratic-led states are suing the Trump administration over its decision to repeal a scientific finding that had been central to the fight against climate change.

The states, along with about a dozen cities and counties, say the EPA acted illegally when it rescinded what&apos;s called the endangerment finding. That conclusion formed the legal basis to regulate emissions from cars, power plants and other sources.

New York Attorney General Letitia James, who is helping lead the suit, said, &quot;Instead of helping Americans face our new reality, the Trump administration has chosen denial.&quot;

An EPA spokeswoman dismissed the lawsuit, saying it&apos;s, in her words, &quot;clearly motivated by politics.&quot;

      <video:title>WATCH: Prop bets give new meaning to March Madness</video:title>
      <video:description>An estimated $3.3 billion in bets are estimated to be placed on the NCAA mens and women’s basketball tournaments this year, a 54% increase over the past three years, according to the American Gaming Association.

But indictments and investigations into game rigging are giving a new meaning to March Madness.

In January, the Department of Justice announced criminal charges into 26 defendants around a scheme to fix NCAA Division 1 men’s basketball games. And the NCAA’s own investigations have probed 40 student athletes at 20 schools.

PBS News’ Tim McPhillips spoke with Declan Hill, associate professor of investigations at the University of New Haven, to break down how college sports fell into the crosshairs of corruption and game fixing, the role of prop bets and the potential consequences of the increasingly close relationship between U.S. sports leagues and sports books.

      <video:title>WATCH: Rep. Crawford makes opening statement in worldwide threats hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Rep. Rick Crawford, R-Ark., chair of the House Select Committee on Intelligence, made an opening statement Thursday in a hearing on worldwide threats.

It&apos;s the second day of hearings on Capitol Hill focused on the intelligence community&apos;s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

On Wednesday, Democratic senators pressed Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, about the U.S.-Israel attacks on Iran and whether she offered any guidance to President Donald Trump, among other topics.

National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned Tuesday over the war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, posted his resignation letter on X, writing directly to Trump that Iran &quot;posed no imminent threat&quot; to the U.S. and he could not &quot;in good conscience&quot; support the war. Kent told Tucker Carlson in a podcast interview Wednesday that he and “other key decision makers” were “not allowed” to share their opinions with the president.

      <video:title>WATCH: Asked about sanctuary cities, DHS nominee Mullin suggests working out &apos;misunderstanding&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., asked Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, how he’d approach so-called sanctuary cities, including Los Angeles and Chicago, that limit cooperation between federal immigration agents and state and local governments.

Mullin, who’s been heavily critical of sanctuary cities, likened the disagreements between Trump and these Democratic-led cities as a possible “misunderstanding” that could be worked out. The Trump administration has been seeking to tamp down its heightened immigration crackdown after waves of community-level pushback to agents’ aggressive tactics.

“I would even say these mayors, they still love their community, they still love their cities,” he said, “so maybe it&apos;s a misunderstanding we can work by, and I&apos;m going to start with that.”

Scott asked if Mullin, as secretary, would ban federal funding to sanctuary cities.

Mullin said that would be a “last option,” adding that “taxpayer dollars have to be used for the right purposes.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Tr</video:description>

      <video:description>Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, reiterated Thursday that &quot;Iran&apos;s strategic position has been significantly degraded&quot; as a result of U.S.-Israeli attacks.

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Thursday before the House Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It&apos;s the second day of hearings on Capitol Hill focused on the intelligence community&apos;s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

      <video:description>The U.S. Federal Reserve expects to cut rates once this year after leaving rates unchanged for a second straight time Wednesday.

Speaking to reporters, Fed Chair Jerome Powell stressed that it&apos;s hard to know the long-term impact of the Iran war on the economy — though, in the near term, inflation is likely to remain elevated. Wednesday&apos;s meeting is expected to be his second to last as Fed chair.

Powell also said he has &quot;no intention of leaving&quot; until a Justice Department probe related to the renovation of the Fed&apos;s headquarters is over.

      <video:title>Mullin expresses regret for calling Pretti &apos;deranged&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, suggested in a confirmation hearing Wednesday that he regretted calling a Minnesota protester who was killed by government agents “a deranged individual.”

Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., asked Mullin if he would make those kinds of “quick responses” as DHS secretary.

“I shouldn&apos;t have said that, and as secretary, I wouldn’t,” Mullin said.

“There’s some times I’m going to make a mistake and I’ll own it. That one went out there too fast. I was responding immediately without facts. That’s my fault. That won’t happen as secretary,” he added.

After Minnesota nurse Alex Pretti was killed by federal immigration agents in Minnesota in January, Mullin said on Fox News he was “a deranged individual who came in to cause massive damage.” An investigation into Pretti’s death is ongoing.

On Wednesday, Mullin did not apologize to Pretti’s family, saying he would apologize if he’s “proven wrong” by the investigation.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

      <video:title>U.S. eases sanctions on Venezuelan oil as prices surge</video:title>
      <video:description>The Treasury Department is easing sanctions on Venezuela&apos;s state-owned oil company, trying to tame the rise in oil prices brought on by the Iran war. The move authorizes the entity, known as PDVSA, to sell Venezuelan oil to U.S. companies and on global markets.

But there are limitations. Venezuela won&apos;t be able sell oil to Russia, Iran, North Korea and some Chinese entities. And according to the Associated Press, the U.S. will control the cash flow from the transactions by a special account.

This comes as Americans are now paying, on average, $3.84 for a gallon of regular. That&apos;s the highest since 2023.

      <video:title>The biggest peach myth in America</video:title>
      <video:description>Peaches are one of America’s most recognizable fruits. In the US, hundreds of thousands of tons are produced each year, and the fruit is closely tied to one place in particular: Georgia.
The Georgia peach is on license plates, road signs, and even county names. But today, the state doesn’t grow the most peaches. Not even close.

This video explores how peaches became a state symbol, how that reputation spread through active mythmaking, and why the Georgia peach identity has lasted even as the industry changed.

      <video:title>Afghanistan alleges Pakistani air strike kills hundreds</video:title>
      <video:description>Officials in Afghanistan say at least 400 people were killed in a Pakistani airstrike on a drug rehabilitation hospital in Kabul. Workers pulled bodies from the wreckage as the Taliban-led government-threatened retaliation on Tuesday.

Pakistan did claim responsibility for the strike, but said it had targeted a military facility. It also dismissed Afghanistan&apos;s claims that hundreds were killed as propaganda.

The U.N. has called for an investigation of the strike which marked a dramatic escalation in tensions between the two countries following weeks of cross-border attacks.

      <video:title>How Mullin would approach ICE reform as DHS head</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, about his suggestions for reforming ICE in a confirmation hearing Wednesday.

Slotkin asked Mullin what he’d be “willing to do to fundamentally reform ICE.”

Mullin replied that he’d like to see ICE work more with law enforcement.

“I would love to see ICE become a transport more than the front line,” Mullin said in a hearing before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>Warner says Gabbard contradicts Trump on Iran</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard about omitting details in her opening statement that “contradict the president” on Iran.

Warner said Gabbard omitted a section from her oral opening statement to the Senate Intelligence Committee that discusses how Iran’s nuclear program was obliterated after Operation Midnight Hammer last year.

“You chose to omit the parts that contradict the president,” Warner said.

Gabbard said she skipped through parts of her statement because “time was running long.”

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Wednesday before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It’s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community’s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the U.S. and he could not “in good conscience” support the war.

      <video:description>A series of strikes across the Middle East jolted energy markets and fueled concerns that the war won&apos;t end anytime soon. Brent crude oil is nearing a 52-week high after Israel hit a large gas field in Iran, and Iranian strikes caused extensive damage to a major Qatari fuel hub. Nick Schifrin reports.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Kelly questions Gabbard about fundraising emails offering national security briefings</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and CIA Director John Ratcliffe about fundraising emails for President Donald Trump that allegedly offered national security briefing information in exchange for donations.

“As a national security briefing member you’ll receive my private national security briefings,” Kelly read. “Director Gabbard and Director Ratcliffe, do you think… supporters of the president should be able to pay to receive his national security briefings?”

Ratcliffe responded that he was “not aware” that anything like that happened, and Gabbard said she was “not familiar with that document.”

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Wednesday before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It&apos;s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community&apos;s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump&apos;s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran &quot;posed no imminent threat&quot; to the U.S. and he could not &quot;in good conscience&quot; support the war.

      <video:title>WATCH: Paul confronts Mullin at confirmation hearing over comments on violent attack against him</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., opened Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin’s confirmation hearing Wednesday by confronting him over comments that seemed to support a violent attack on Paul at his home.

Mullin, President Donald Trump&apos;s pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, and Paul, a fellow Republican and chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, clashed several times over how Mullin reacted to the 2017 assault on Paul by his neighbor, which left him with several broken ribs.

When asked about a policy disagreement, Mullin “told the media that I was a &apos;freaking snake&apos; and that you completely understood why I had been assaulted,&quot; Paul said. &quot;I was shocked that you would justify and celebrate this violent assault that caused me so much pain and my family so much pain.”

Mullin described himself as “very blunt and direct to the point, and if I have something to say, I&apos;ll say it directly to your face.”

&quot;I work around this room to try to fix problems. I&apos;ve worked with many people in this room,&quot; Mullin said of the “snake” remark.  It “seems like you fight Republicans more than you work with us,&quot; he told Paul.

The Oklahoma Republican added that he &quot;can understand why your neighbor ... did what he did.”

&quot;What do you think most people would interpret &apos;completely understand&apos; to be: support for or a condemnation of the violence?&quot; Paul replied.

Later in the hearing, Paul connected his concerns about Mullin’s “lack of contrition, no apology and no regrets” over those personal remarks to whether the lawmaker endorses violence to settle political differences. Paul said he wondered whether someone who “applauds violence” against political opponents is fit to lead an agency that has “struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Hawley questions Sen. Mullin in DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, in a confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Bennett questions intelligence leaders in worldwide threats hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo., questioned CIA Director John Ratcliffe on the justification for President Donald Trump launching a war with Israel against Iran.

“This is a serious threat to us and to Israel. The question is how to handle it, and President Trump said, ’we are not the policemen of the world,’” Bennett said. “He ran on that, and now he’s turned us into the world’s policemen, into its jury, into its judge, into its executioner.”

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Wednesday before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It’s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community’s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the U.S. and he could not “in good conscience” support the war.

      <video:title>WATCH: Gallego asks Mullin about DHS investigators being diverted to probe 2020 election in Arizona</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, about who won the 2020 election in Arizona in a confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

“Do you believe that Joe Biden won Arizona in the 2020 presidential election?” Gallego asked. “The reason I ask is because, again, you’re potentially deploying HIS (Homeland Security Investigations) agents to Arizona to check a result using our taxpayer dollars to follow up on a conspiracy theory.”

Mullin didn’t answer Gallego’s question, instead addressing the concern that agents are investigating unsubstantiated claims of fraud in the 2020 election in Arizona.

“I’m not familiar with what the former secretary did here, and nor am I here to debate what happened in 2020,” Mullin said. “I do know that there’s an opportunity to look at 2020 and make sure that anything that went wrong we can fix moving forward, because what we want to make sure is that in the next election, be it the midterms or 2028, the American people trust our election system.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

      <video:title>WATCH: Iran war&apos;s consequences were &apos;entirely foreseen,&apos; Sen. Wyden tells Gabbard</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard about U.S. intelligence agencies&apos; previous assessments about Iran, as oil prices spike due to the conflict.

Wyden noted a line from last year&apos;s annual worldwide threats assessment, which was produced by Gabbard&apos;s office. &quot;Iran’s large
conventional forces are capable of inflicting substantial damage to an attacker, executing regional strikes, and disrupting shipping, particularly energy supplies, through the Strait of Hormuz,&quot; the March 2025 report said.

&quot;In other words, every problem we&apos;re seeing now was not only foreseeable, but was actually predicted by the intelligence agencies,&quot; Wyden said.

He asked Gabbard if the intelligence community continued to believe that Iran could shut down the strait, a critical passageway for 20% of the world&apos;s oil exports. Gabbard said that she and her team continue to provide the administration &quot;with the intelligence related to this operation in Iran, before and on an ongoing basis.&quot;

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Wednesday before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It&apos;s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community&apos;s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump&apos;s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran &quot;posed no imminent threat&quot; to the U.S. and he could not &quot;in good conscience&quot; support the war.

      <video:title>WATCH: Mullin, a Trump ally, avoids saying Biden won the 2020 election in DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., asked Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., to say who won the 2020 presidential election in a confirmation hearing Wednesday.

Mullin is a Trump ally who voted against certifying the 2020 election results and has boosted the president’s repeated falsehoods that the election was stolen.

“Ma&apos;am, we know that President Joe Biden was sworn into office,” Mullin said before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Slotkin interjected to repeat her question on who Mullin thought won the election.

“I do believe my job as Department of Homeland Security secretary will be to make sure that we assure that the elections are fair and people can trust them,” he said.

Slotkin then asked, if confirmed, would Mullin put the agency’s officers at polling locations during the 2026 midterms.

“The only reason why my officers should be there is if there was a specific threat for them to be there, not for intimidation,” he said.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: DHS nominee Mullin says he wants to see &apos;ICE become a transport more than the front line&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, about his suggestions for reforming ICE in a confirmation hearing Wednesday.

Slotkin asked Mullin what he’d be “willing to do to fundamentally reform ICE.”

Mullin replied that he’d like to see ICE work more with law enforcement.

“I would love to see ICE become a transport more than the front line,” Mullin said in a hearing before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Warner says Gabbard omitted details in testimony that “contradict” Trump on Iran</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard about omitting details in her opening statement that “contradict the president” on Iran.

Warner said Gabbard omitted a section from her oral opening statement to the Senate Intelligence Committee that discusses how Iran’s nuclear program was obliterated after Operation Midnight Hammer last year.

“You chose to omit the parts that contradict the president,” Warner said.

Gabbard said she skipped through parts of her statement because “time was running long.”

Top U.S. intelligence officials were testifying Wednesday before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence at an open hearing on worldwide threats. It’s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community’s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the U.S. and he could not “in good conscience” support the war.

      <video:title>WATCH: ‘You’re evading a question,’ Sen. Ossoff tells Gabbard about her intelligence role</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., questioned Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard on Wednesday about her role and her presence in Fulton County, Ga., during an FBI raid earlier this year.

At the start of his question period, Ossoff criticized President Donald Trump for inviting his political donors to &quot;claim your spot&quot; and &quot;receive private national security briefings.&quot; The message included a photo of the president at a dignified transfer ceremony with a flag-draped coffin pictured.

&quot;The American people need to know that the president of the United States is fundraising for his political campaign and his PAC using images of American service members killed in action, and it&apos;s a disgrace,&quot; Ossoff said.

He later asked Gabbard if U.S. intelligence agencies assessed that Iran posed a &quot;imminent nuclear threat.&quot; Gabbard said that &quot;the only person who can determine what is and is not an imminent threat is the president,&quot; a response that Ossoff called &quot;false.&quot;

&quot;It is precisely your responsibility to determine what constitutes a threat to the United States,&quot; the senator said. He later added that Gabbard&apos;s role is to provide intelligence that is &quot;timely, objective and independent of political considerations.&quot;

Ossoff also asked about Gabbard&apos;s presence earlier this year at the FBI&apos;s raid of an elections office in Georgia&apos;s most populous county. The raid, which included the seizure of more than 700 boxes of ballots, was part of a probe into “deficiencies” during the 2020 election, according to an unsealed affidavit from an FBI agent. Joe Biden&apos;s victory in Georgia helped propel him to the presidency over Trump in 2020.

      <video:title>WATCH: Intelligence community has &apos;disparate opinions&apos; about Havana syndrome&apos;s cause, CIA head says</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., questioned CIA Director John Ratcliffe about recent reporting on &quot;Havana syndrome,&quot; a group of what the government has called &quot;anomalous health incidents,&quot; or AHI. In these incidents, American diplomatic and intelligence personnel experienced traumatic brain injuries, vertigo, loss of balance, cognitive issues and other physical ailments.

CBS News&apos; &quot;60 Minutes&quot; recently reported details about &quot;a classified microwave weapon&quot; that could explain the injuries. The report also noted that the weapon has been tested on animals in a U.S. military lab for more than a year.

Ratcliffe told Rounds that &quot;there are disparate opinions across&quot; the U.S. intelligence community about the cause of Havana syndrome. He said that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard &quot;would undertake a comprehensive review of that issue&quot; so that &quot;it is getting the attention that it deserves.&quot; Ratcliffe also noted that more information will be available in the closed-door, classified portion of the hearing.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Kelly says “not everybody is losing” as gas prices rise amid Iran war</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., questions intelligence agency leaders about American adversaries benefiting from the U.S.-Israeli war with Iran as gas prices continue to rise.

“This has created one of the largest ever supply shocks to the global oil supply, which has sent gas prices skyrocketing for Americans, but not everybody is losing,” Kelly said.

Kelly asked CIA Director John Ratcliffe and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard whether it’s accurate that Russia and China are benefiting from the war.

The Trump administration last week announced it’s temporarily lifting sanctions on Russian oil as the war in Iran impacts the global supply chain.

“Sometimes there are decisions made that will benefit adversaries at the same time policymakers think that it will benefit the American people,” Ratcliffe said.

Amid the rising gas prices, Kelly also asked if the White House had asked to be briefed on whether Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz as a result of the war.

Both Ratcliffe and Gabbard sidestepped the question.

“I’m having a hard time finding out whether the White House asked or whether there was a brief, whether the president knew,” Kelly said. “Did he know this was gonna happen, or did he just disregard?”

      <video:title>WATCH: Mullin expresses regret for calling Alex Pretti deranged in DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, suggested in a confirmation hearing Wednesday that he regretted calling a Minnesota protester who was killed by government agents “a deranged individual.”

Sen. Gary Peters, D-Mich., asked Mullin if he would make those kinds of “quick responses” as DHS secretary.

“I should have said that, and as secretary, I wouldn’t,” Mullin said.

“There’s some times I’m going to make a mistake and I’ll own it. That one went out there too fast. I was responding immediately without facts. That’s my fault. That won’t happen as secretary,” he added.

After Minnesota nurse Alex Pretti was killed by federal immigration agents in Minnesota in January, Mullin said on Fox News he was “a deranged individual who came in to cause massive damage.” An investigation into Pretti’s death is ongoing.

On Wednesday, Mullin did not apologize to Pretti’s family, saying he would apologize if he’s “proven wrong” by the investigation.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: Mullin chokes up recalling how Trump helped his son heal from brain injury</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, told a story in his confirmation hearing Wednesday about Trump’s efforts to help Mullin’s teenage son recover from a devastating brain injury.

At times emotional, Mullin recalled how Trump offered the use of his private plane, called the Mullin family multiple times and visited with Mullin’s son as he recovered in early 2020.

“Every week, if not most days, the president would call and ask how he could help, ask how’s his buddy doing, how’s Jim doing?” Mullin said before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. “He didn’t do it for publicity. He didn’t do it for any show. He was running in one of the toughest elections he’d been in, and the guy was still that concerned about my son.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

      <video:description>Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., asked Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, whether he’d commit to the agency instructing its immigration enforcement agents to no longer forcibly enter people’s homes without a judicial warrant.

Blumenthal said a subcommittee’s report showed that these incidents happened more often than what outgoing DHS head Kristi Noem told lawmakers in her last hearing. He also said a whistleblower claimed that the uptick of these instances occurred after a memo from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement acting director Todd Lyons instructed agents to break into homes without a judicial warrant.

“I said we will not enter a home or a place of business without a judicial warrant unless we&apos;re pursuing the individual that runs into a place of business or a resident or a house,” Mullin said at his confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Paul asks DHS nominee Mullin if he believes violence can resolve political differences</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., asked Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., on Wednesday if he believes that political disputes can be resolved by violence.

“I don&apos;t always agree with that. I don&apos;t believe in political violence. I&apos;ve made that very clear,” Mullin said in his confirmation hearing before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

In an opening statement, Paul took the Cabinet secretary nominee to task over public remarks he made after Paul was assaulted by a neighbor in 2017. Mullin, who is President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, said Paul was engaging in “character assassination.”

Paul also cited statements by the Oklahoma Republican that there’s historical precedence for violence, such caning and dueling, to resolve political differences between lawmakers.

Mullin said there were some rules that still applied to this body, saying dueling between two consenting adults was still on the books.

“It’s been illegal for 170 years,” Paul interjected. “There&apos;s no precedent for legal dueling.”

The senator then raised Mullin’s comments in a CNN interview that he had “no regrets” after getting into a near-brawl with a witness at a 2023 Senate committee hearing.

“Mr. Chairman, you&apos;re going to have your opinion. I&apos;m going to have mine as the secretary of homeland security,” Mullin said. “I&apos;m going to bring peace of mind and security to this country, and I&apos;m going to stay laser focused on that.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Lankford questions Sen. Mullin about improving FEMA in DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, about his ideas for improving FEMA in a confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Mullin said FEMA should step back and allow local disaster response to take the lead by providing funding and manpower.

“FEMA was never designed to be the first responder,” Mullin said. “That’s the states. FEMA was designed to be the assistance to the states when the disaster reaches certain levels.”

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: Tulsi Gabbard makes opening statement in worldwide threats hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard made an opening statement Wednesday in an open Senate Select Committee on Intelligence hearing on worldwide threats.

Gabbard noted as part of her 22-minute statement that Russia, China, Iran, Pakistan and North Korea have been developing missile delivery systems “that put our homeland within range.”

Her comments came on the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community’s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the U.S. and he could not “in good conscience” support the war.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Scott questions Sen. Mullin in DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, in a confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Paul makes opening statement in Mullin’s DHS confirmation hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., chair of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, made an opening statement Wednesday in a confirmation hearing for Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security.

Paul detailed numerous occasions he has been exposed to political violence across his career before turning back to Mullin and recalling a time when the Oklahoma senator had called him a &quot;freaking snake&quot; and had said an assault on Paul was justified.

&quot;I was shocked that you would justify and celebrate this violent assault that caused me so much pain and my family so much pain. I just wonder if someone who applauds violence against their political opponents is the right person to lead an agency that has struggled to accept limits to the proper use of force,&quot; Paul said.

&quot;Tell the world why you believe I deserve to be assaulted from behind, have six ribs broken and a damaged lung,&quot; he continued. &quot;Tell me to my face, why you think I deserved it . And while you&apos;re at it, explain to the American public why they should trust a man with anger issues to set the proper example for ICE and Border Patrol agents. Explain to the American public how a man who has no regrets about brawling in a Senate committee can set a proper example for over 250,000 men and women who work at the Department of Homeland Security.&quot;

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

      <video:description>Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, questioned Sen. Markwayne Mullin, R-Okla., President Donald Trump’s new pick to lead the Department of Homeland Security, in a confirmation hearing Wednesday by the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.

Trump tapped Mullin to take over the embattled agency from Kristi Noem, who was fired earlier this month after her leadership came under bipartisan scrutiny during tense congressional hearings.

Mullin was elected to Congress in 2012 and has branded himself as a businessman and a Washington outsider. As Homeland Security secretary, Mullin, a former business owner, would take charge of one of the biggest government agencies, leading the nation’s disaster response, counterterrorism efforts, border security and the president’s mass deportation agenda.

A former mixed martial arts fighter who once challenged the Teamsters president to a fight during a Senate hearing, Mullin has pledged to stay “focused on protecting the homeland&quot; if he is confirmed.

The Republican Party is considering a pivot on how it approaches immigration enforcement as more voters grow concerned over DHS agents’ aggressive tactics, which has led to the shooting deaths of at least three U.S. citizens since Trump retook office.

      <video:title>WATCH: Sen. Cotton makes opening statement in worldwide threats hearing</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, made an opening statement Wednesday in an open hearing on worldwide threats. Cotton praised the combined efforts of intelligence agencies to support President Trump’s military campaign against Iran.

It’s the first of two days of hearings on Capitol Hill surrounding the intelligence community’s release of its annual assessment of threats to national security.

The Senate hearing comes a day after National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned over President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Kent, a former Green Beret and CIA official known for his past ties to right-wing extremists, said in a statement Tuesday that Iran “posed no imminent threat” to the U.S. and he could not “in good conscience” support the war.

Writing directly to President Donald Trump, he said, “Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.”

“I cannot support sending the next generation off to fight and die in a war that serves no benefit to the American people nor justifies the cost of American lives,&quot; he added.

Kent is a former Green Beret whose wife, a Navy cryptologist, was killed by a suicide bomber in 2019 while serving in Syria. He was a controversial pick to lead the National Counterterrorism Center because of his ties to right-wing extremists and support for conspiracy theories, including baseless claims that federal agents were behind the Jan. 6 attacks on the Capitol.

      <video:title>How the Pentagon spent $93 billion in a single month</video:title>
      <video:description>The Pentagon spent over $500 billion in fiscal year 2025, and $93 billion of that spending was in September alone.

The last month of the fiscal year for the government is September, a time when agencies across the government race to use up the rest of their annual budgets.

These spending sprees sometimes include questionable purchases, like the Pentagon&apos;s purchase of $12,000 three-tiered fruit stands and $2 million worth of Alaskan King Crab.

PBS News’ Cecilia Lallmann breaks down what Open the Books, a government watchdog nonprofit, found in the Pentagon&apos;s September 2025 purchases.

      <video:title>Federal judge blocks RFK Jr.&apos;s changes to children&apos;s vaccines</video:title>
      <video:description>A federal judge in Massachusetts has temporarily blocked federal health officials from overhauling the nation&apos;s vaccine policies.

The Monday ruling was major blow to the Trump administration&apos;s broader health agenda.

The judge sided with major medical associations in finding that HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. likely violated federal procedures in revamping an important vaccine advisory committee. He put on hold decisions made by that board, including which vaccines children get and when they receive them.

The government is expected to appeal, but the president of the American Academy of Pediatrics celebrated the ruling, calling it an &quot;historic and welcome outcome for children, communities and pediatricians everywhere.&quot;

      <video:title>How Trump used ‘gunboat diplomacy’ in Iran, Venezuela</video:title>
      <video:description>Last week, the United States and Israel unleashed the largest conflict in the Middle East in more than two decades when they launched joint attacks on Iran.

Although the Pentagon says the specific military goals include destroying both Iran&apos;s navy and its missile and military infrastructure, U.S. and Israeli officials also envision changing the Islamic Republic&apos;s regime.

Former Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman joined Compass Points host Nick Schifrin to discuss how long the U.S. will sustain the war and President Donald Trump&apos;s endgame in Iran.

Sherman pointed out that &quot;one of the many objectives&quot; played out by the president, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is that Venezuela is Trump’s “template.”

In other words, the idea, Schifrin said, is &quot;removing the head of the regime but leaving everyone else intact and conducting gunboat diplomacy to achieve your objectives,&quot; similar to the U.S. operation that removed Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from power in early January.

“Exactly, get oil, get gold, get whatever you can, very transactional as you pointed out,&quot; Sherman said. &quot;If that is true in Iran, and the Iranian experts know better than I, that&apos;s not likely to happen here.”

Sherman added that it leaves the Iranian people “as an afterthought,” after Trump said he would have their back following the Iranian government’s mass killings of protesters.

“If it&apos;s a Venezuela template, their back is not going to be had. Their lives are going to be had,” she said.

Compass Points from PBS News analyzes prominent international affairs topics and America’s role in a shifting world, breaking down global conflicts, rising tensions, and their implications for U.S. interests. Visit the PBS News website to watch this week&apos;s episode.

      <video:title>As Israel launches Lebanon ground operation, Trump asks allies to help reopen oil route</video:title>
      <video:description>The war with Iran has entered its third week, shipping traffic through the critical Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut off, and the shockwaves to the global supply chain of oil are being felt, with gas prices on the rise. President Trump himself is demanding help from U.S. allies to secure the strait. Nick Schifrin reports.

      <video:title>What Trump told PBS News in a one-on-one call</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump told PBS News White House correspondent Liz Landers that Iran wants &quot;to make a deal, but they&apos;re not ready to make a deal, in my opinion,&quot; after two weeks of U.S. and Israeli strikes on the country.

The president spoke to Landers during a brief one-on-one phone call Monday morning.

Trump also threatened additional U.S. military strikes on Kharg Island, a main hub for Iran&apos;s oil exports. &quot;I told them openly — I&apos;ll knock the hell out of it,&quot; he said.

When discussing oil prices, he said they &quot;will drop like a rock&quot; as soon as the war with Iran is over.

Landers asked whether U.S. troops will be on the ground in Iran. Trump responded, &quot;I don&apos;t want to say that.&quot;

When Landers asked the president if his thinking has changed on ground troops, he said, &quot;No, it&apos;s not changed, but I just don&apos;t want to talk about that, because I&apos;m not gonna talk about strategy with a reporter. O.K.?&quot;

      <video:description>More than two weeks into the war with Iran, Muslim Americans are confronting a new surge of hateful rhetoric amplified online and echoed by some of the country’s most prominent Republican officials.

Oil prices surged overnight, coming close to $120 a barrel, but by the end of the trading day prices had fallen sharply. Still, the national average price of gasoline per gallon has risen nearly 50 cents since the Iran conflict began. Geoff Bennett discussed the developments with Daniel Yergin.

      <video:title>New FAA hiring rule could narrow pilot pathway, experts say</video:title>
      <video:description>This new FAA mandate may make it more difficult to hire pilots

As U.S. airlines face a pilot shortage, a new federal directive is adding turbulence to the conversation around hiring.

As part of the Trump administration’s shift away from diversity, equity and inclusion policies, the Federal Aviation Administration is requiring airlines to formally pledge that pilot hiring is based strictly on merit, not race or gender.

But many in the industry say that&apos;s already how it works, and they worry this change could harm perception of airlines and pilots.

Here&apos;s a closer look at the rule change and what it means for pilot hiring, recruitment and training.

      <video:title>WATCH: Negotiating with Americans not on the table right now, Iranian foreign minister says</video:title>
      <video:description>Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says negotiating with the United States is off the table right now.

It&apos;s too soon for newly chosen supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei to offer comment on talks with the U.S., Araghchi said in an interview with PBS News Hour&apos;s Amna Nawaz on Monday. But &quot;we have a very bitter experience of talking with the Americans,&quot; he said.

&quot;We negotiated with them last year, in last June, and they attacked us in the middle of negotiations. And, again this year, they tried to convince us that this time is different,&quot; he said.

Araghchi added that despite U.S. comments that it wanted to resolve nuclear questions &quot;peacefully,&quot; Iran still faced an attack.

The comments came one day after Mojtaba Khamenei was chosen as the successor to his father, the late Ali Khamenei, who was killed in an Israeli strike at the beginning of the war with Iran. Araghchi says the choice shows &quot;continuity&quot; and &quot;stability.&quot;

      <video:title>Oil issues &apos;not our fault,&apos; says Iran&apos;s foreign minister</video:title>
      <video:description>Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says the United States and Israel have made the Middle East &quot;insecure&quot; and are responsible for disruptions in oil production and rising oil prices.

&quot;This is not our fault, this is not our plan,&quot; he told PBS News Hour&apos;s Amna Nawaz in an interview airing Monday evening. &quot;The oil production, the transportation of oil has been slowed down, not because of us, because of the attacks and aggression made of Israelis and Americans against us.&quot;

This is &quot;the result of the aggression by Israelis and Americans, which has made the whole region insecure, unstable,&quot; he later added. &quot;The consequences are huge for not only us, but for the whole region and now for the international community.&quot;  

The Strait of Hormuz, where about 20% of the world&apos;s oil and liquefied natural gas exports are shipped every day, has been effectively closed since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes against Iran on Feb. 28.

On Monday, oil prices jumped at one point to more than $100 per barrel. The G7 group of industrialized nations said they planned to hold off for now on using their strategic oil reserves to counter the rising prices.

      <video:description>Tuesday on the News Hour, another round of bombings shake Iran as new video indicates it was likely an American missile that hit a school on the first day of the war. Afghans who fled conflict in their home country find themselves caught in the middle of another war. Plus, as the electrical grid faces huge demand from AI, solar power is on the decline in the U.S. because of Trump&apos;s roadblocks.

      <video:description>The U.S. is investigating an explosion at a school next to an Iranian navy base in the city of Minab. Iran says the strike killed more than 150 people, mostly schoolgirls. A U.S. official briefed on the initial review tells PBS News that the strike was likely American. Nick Schifrin looks at videos and satellite images and speaks to experts on what appears to be the deadliest strike of the war.

      <video:title>As Iran shows no signs of surrender, U.S. launches &apos;most intense&apos; day of strikes</video:title>
      <video:description>The U.S.-Israeli war with Iran showed no sign of slowing on Tuesday, with both sides trading strikes and vowing to keep up the attacks. U.S. officials said the campaign has destroyed most of Iran’s ability to produce nuclear fuel, and President Trump said forces also struck sea mine targets tied to Iranian threats in the Strait of Hormuz. Stephanie Sy reports.

      <video:title>Afghans stranded for a year by Trump&apos;s refugee freeze now caught in new war</video:title>
      <video:description>President Trump’s decision to freeze refugee processing left thousands in limbo. For more than a year, 1,100 Afghan refugees who thought they were bound for the United States have been stranded on a disused military base in Qatar. Now, having fled one war, they’re trapped in another and caught in the crosshairs of Iran’s ballistic missile attacks. Special correspondent Leila Molana-Allen reports.

      <video:title>Blumenthal vs. Leavitt on ground troops in Iran</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., raised concern Tuesday that the Trump administration might be heading toward putting troops on the ground in Iran.

&quot;We seem to be on a path toward deploying American troops on the ground in Iran to accomplish any of the potential objectives,&quot; he told reporters on Capitol Hill after a confidential briefing Senate Armed Services Committee.

Blumenthal said the briefing had left him &quot;with more questions than answers.&quot;

&quot;My questions have been unanswered, and I will demand answers because the American people deserve to know, and I guess I am most concerned about the threat to American lives,&quot; he said.&quot;

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt responded to the comments later Tuesday, saying Democrats are &quot;disingenuous&quot; and &quot;playing politics&quot; on the issue of Iran.

&quot;I would hesitate to confirm anything that a Democrat on Capitol Hill says right now about the president&apos;s thinking,&quot; Leavitt said during a White House press briefing.

Yet Leavitt also said that President Donald Trump has not ruled out the option of using ground troops in Iran.

      <video:title>Trump sidesteps question on Iranian school strike</video:title>
      <video:description>Despite video footage and imagery that suggests a U.S. Tomahawk missile struck a girls’ school next to an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps complex in a southern Iranian province, President Donald Trump posited Monday that Iran was responsible.

U.S. defense contractor Raytheon makes the Tomahawk missile and sells it to American allies. There is no evidence that Iran has acquired a Tomahawk missile.

“The Tomahawk, which is one of the most powerful weapons around, is sold and used by other countries,” Trump told reporters at a news conference in Florida. “Whether it&apos;s Iran, who also has some Tomahawks – they wish they had more – but whether it&apos;s Iran or somebody else, … a Tomahawk is very generic.”

A New York Times reporter followed up: “You just suggested that Iran somehow got its hands on a Tomahawk and bombed its own elementary school on the first day of the war. But you&apos;re the only person in your government saying this; even your defense secretary wouldn&apos;t say that when he was asked, standing over your shoulder on your plane on Saturday. Why are you the only person saying this?”

Trump responded that “I just don&apos;t know enough about it,” and noted that the Pentagon is investigating the strike.

“Whatever the report shows, I&apos;m willing to live with that report,” the president said.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters Tuesday that the president “has a right to share his opinions with the American public” and reiterated that the president will accept the conclusion of the Pentagon’s investigation.

The Feb. 28 strike on the school reportedly killed at least 175 people, including children.

      <video:description>Betting on sports has exploded in the last eight years. But wagers and sports have been inextricably linked for more than a century. In this episode of “Settle In,” journalist and author David Hill speaks with Geoff Bennett about the long arc of America’s love affair with betting, how technology has supercharged the industry and how prediction markets like Polymarket and Kalshi are changing the game.

      <video:description>For more than 10 days, Iran has used Shahed drones to target American bases, killing U.S. troops and hitting civilian infrastructure facilities. But long before they flew across the Middle East, Shaheds fired by Russia targeted Ukrainian troops and infrastructure.

      <video:title>Can tapping into oil reserves help stabilize prices?</video:title>
      <video:description>The decision by the International Energy Agency to tap into oil reserves is historic in its size and scope. The 400 million barrel release dwarfs the number released after Russia invaded Ukraine. But there are many questions about whether this more ambitious effort will stop a surge in oil and gas prices if the war endures. Geoff Bennett discussed more with Clay Seigle.

      <video:title>Starmer knew about Mandelson&apos;s Epstein ties, report shows</video:title>
      <video:description>U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer was warned of the reputational risk in appointing Peter Mandelson as U.S. ambassador due to his ties to Jeffrey Epstein, according to documents released Wednesday by the British government. The 147-page report lays out Mandelson&apos;s ties to Epstein, as well as unrelated financial issues.

Mandelson was arrested last month on suspicion of misconduct in public office. He denies any wrongdoing and has not been charged.

Starmer on Thursday said &quot;it was me that made the mistake&quot; in appointing Mandelson to be U.S. ambassador.

Meantime, in Washington, Epstein&apos;s longtime accountant Richard Kahn told lawmakers on Wednesday that he was &quot;not aware&quot; of the nature of Epstein&apos;s abuse until after his death.

That&apos;s according to opening remarks obtained by reporters ahead of a closed-door deposition by the House Oversight Committee. Kahn remains an executor of Epstein&apos;s estate and denies any wrongdoing.

      <video:title>6 of Iran&apos;s women soccer team accept asylum in Australia</video:title>
      <video:description>Seven members of Iran&apos;s national women&apos;s soccer team remain in Australia, an Australian government official said Wednesday, as the rest of their teammates head back to a country now at the center of a widening war.

The players had traveled to Australia for the Asian Women&apos;s Cup just before the war started.

Six of the women have accepted humanitarian visas that will allow them to remain in Australia for good. A seventh who had initially sought asylum has since decided to return to Iran, a decision supported by Australia&apos;s home affairs minister.

Iran&apos;s sports minister also told state television Wednesday that &quot;under no circumstances&quot; would the men&apos;s team participate in this summer&apos;s soccer World Cup, which is being hosted by the U.S., Mexico and Canada.

Those comments came hours after FIFA&apos;s president, Gianni Infantino, said that President Donald Trump told him Iran would be welcome.

      <video:title>Why AI should benefit more than billionaires #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>Yes, Sen. Bernie Sanders has tried AI. And no, he doesn’t believe that the systems should be making billionaires even richer. 

He sat down with Vox’s Astead Herndon to tell him that he thinks Congress needs to take more action on an AI landscape that changes every single day. 

You can watch their full interview on Saturday, here on YouTube.

      <video:description>In the first cabinet shakeup of his second term, President Donald Trump has tapped Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin to replace Kristi Noem as head of the Department of Homeland Security. Mullin, a plumber-turned-MMA-fighter-turned-firebrand-politician, has made a name for himself in Congress as a political outsider — and MAGA ultra-loyalist.

      <video:description>Congress is charged with writing the laws that govern the rest of us, but who holds lawmakers accountable when they break the rules? We take a closer look at the number of sitting members of Congress facing active ethics investigations, and the largely invisible system designed to police them. Congressional correspondent Lisa Desjardins reports.

      <video:description>The Israel Defense Forces issued evacuation orders for downtown Beirut ahead of airstrikes, as well as a second, sweeping evacuation order for southern Lebanon. That means around 10% of Lebanese territory is now subject to Israeli evacuation notices. This latest war has killed nearly 700 Lebanese and forced 800,000 more from their homes. Special correspondent Simona Foltyn reports from Beirut.

      <video:title>The end of world order as we know it</video:title>
      <video:description>Venezuela. Greenland. Iran.

Things have been moving so quickly that we weren&apos;t even at war with Iran when we recorded this episode of The Gray Area with Sean Illing. It’s only March, but it’s been a long year.

The war in Iran is only the latest sign that something deep is shifting in our global politics.  Alliances fraying. Norms weakening. Democracies wobbling. So what exactly is happening? Is the liberal international order slowly eroding? Is it just going through a particularly turbulent chapter? Or are we watching it all collapse?

Sean talks with Zack Beauchamp, author of Vox’s On the Right newsletter, about the global democratic backslide and whether the American-led liberal order is slipping, imploding, or just going through a rough patch. Their conversation, which was recorded before the conflict in Iran, digs into the Greenland saga, alliance politics, and why democratic decay can be both obvious and hard to see at the same time.

I’ve been reporting on the Middle East for almost a decade now. This compilation is my attempt to pull all those threads together—the maps, the borders, and the persistent role the U.S. has played in shaping the region’s history. It also features my visit to Saudi Arabia, where I got rare access to the indigenous communities preserving traditional life in the shadow of a new mega-city.

      <video:description>Around 2,500 U.S. Marines are heading for the Middle East, along with a Navy amphibious warship. Their mission is not yet clear, but it signals a marked increase in U.S. forces in the region. The deployment comes as the Pentagon said more than 15,000 targets had been struck in Iran over nearly two weeks of relentless bombing against the regime. Stephanie Sy reports.

      <video:title>The banana is under threat #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>The standard banana, the one found in nearly every lunch bag, smoothie, and cereal, could go extinct. Known as the Cavendish banana, this single variety accounts for 99 percent of global exports, despite there being over 1,000 different species of bananas.

A variant of Panama disease, a soil fungus that once wiped out the world’s most commercial banana in the 1950s, is back. And this time, there’s no obvious banana replacement around the corner. So what will it take to save one of the world’s most beloved fruits? Head over to YouTube.com/Vox to watch the full video about the future of bananas.

      <video:title>Sen. Bernie Sanders wants to pull the “financial plug” on the war in Iran #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Bernie Sanders’s stance on President Donald Trump’s war in Iran is clear: It’s “unconstitutional” and “illegal.” 

He told Vox’s Astead Herndon that he wants to pull the “financial plug” on the conflict so that the money can instead go toward domestic needs like housing, health care, and education.

      <video:description>Friday on the News Hour, the war with Iran hits the two-week mark as all sides dig in and the death toll rises. The latest antisemitic attack, this time on a Michigan synagogue, highlights growing threats against the Jewish community. Plus, the Trump administration sends pregnant migrant girls to a Texas facility despite warnings that the shelter can&apos;t provide adequate care.

Correction: The introduction to the segment on the Michigan synagogue attack contains the latest information about the attacker’s death, which differs from previous reports mentioned in the story.

      <video:title>What war in Iran has revealed and what remains unknown</video:title>
      <video:description>The Iran war has spiked oil prices, triggered retaliatory strikes against Gulf neighbors and elevated a younger supreme leader. But will the regime survive? How will the war end? And were there military mistakes in the rush to launch the first strike? Compass Points moderator Nick Schifrin discusses the knowns and unknowns with Suzanne Maloney, Reuel Marc Gerecht, Ray Takeyh and Alex Vatanka.

      <video:title>Michigan synagogue attack highlights rise in antisemitic violence</video:title>
      <video:description>Correction: This report has been edited and updated to reflect the latest information about the attacker’s death.

Investigators in suburban Detroit are searching for a motive behind Thursday&apos;s attack on a synagogue and school. The FBI called it “a targeted act of violence against the Jewish community,&quot; and it has touched off a wider conversation around antisemitism in the U.S. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Rabbi Steven Abraham of Beth El Synagogue in Omaha, Nebraska.

      <video:title>Pregnant migrant girls held at Texas center criticized for inadequate care</video:title>
      <video:description>Since July, the Trump administration has been sending all pregnant unaccompanied minors apprehended by immigration enforcement to a single group shelter in Texas. Some of the administration&apos;s own child welfare officials object to this policy, saying the facility lacks specialized care the girls need. Amna Nawaz spoke with Mark Betancourt, a journalist who spent six months reporting on this story.

      <video:description>As the war with Iran continues to escalate, northern Israel is yet again on the conflict&apos;s front line and facing a barrage of missile and drone fire. Communities still recovering from the fighting that followed the Oct. 7 attacks now again face the constant danger and mental trauma that comes with war. Nick Schifrin has the story.

      <video:title>Bernie vs. the billionaires | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Sen. Bernie Sanders has a whole new reason to go after the world’s billionaires. This week, we ask the longtime Independent senator from Vermont about his proposed annual wealth tax and how he plans to rein in AI.

He has called for a moratorium on AI data centers. But with aggressive actions like that, does he think the Democratic Party runs the risk of getting left behind when it comes to AI?

Sen. Sanders recently introduced his Make Billionaires Pay Their Fair Share Act, a 5 percent annual wealth tax on anyone making more than a billion dollars. It’s less than a thousand people, but they are some very big names.

Elon Musk would pay up to $40 billion under the law. Mark Zuckerberg about $11 billion. But Sen. Sanders said it would fund up to $3,000 in direct payments for anyone living in a household that makes less than $150,000.

This bill has little chance of becoming law. President Trump would almost certainly veto it, and it’s a hard chance it wouldn’t even get through Congress. But the effort speaks to something that’s been growing among the American public: disillusion with the wealthiest among us and the billionaire class. Sen. Sanders is sending out a signal for the 2026 elections — and for the 2028 presidential election, too.

      <video:title>WATCH: &apos;He would be dead by June.&apos; Trump, Johnson reveal Florida Rep. Dunn had &apos;terminal diagnosis&apos;</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump revealed that Florida Rep. Neal Dunn had received a short-term terminal diagnosis in wide-ranging remarks Monday.

Ahead of a luncheon with Trump&apos;s hand-picked Kennedy Center board at the White House, the president introduced House Speaker Mike Johnson and noted the difficulty of having a negligible majority in Congress.

&quot;We had one man who was very ill. It looked like he wasn&apos;t going to make it,&quot; Trump said, wondering aloud to Johnson if the public knew and if he should mention the name of the lawmaker. &quot;Go ahead, tell them, tell them the story.&quot;

Prompted by Trump, Johnson discussed the lawmaker’s “very serious” health challenges, which haven’t been made fully public before.

The president asked Johnson what the diagnosis was, adding, &quot;He would be dead by June.”

“OK, that wasn&apos;t public,” Johnson said. “It was grim. That&apos;s what I was going to say.”

Trump also noted Dunn had a heart condition.

Johnson explained how Trump introduced the lawmaker to White House doctors and said the resulting treatment helped give Dunn a “new lease on life.”

The president said the terminal diagnosis was &quot;bad&quot; both because he liked the man and because &quot;I needed his vote.&quot; Trump also said Dunn had vowed to keep working, and to advance Trump&apos;s agenda.

&quot;He said, &apos;Mike, I&apos;m gonna last this out for the president and you, and however long I live, I mean, it looks like June is the time, but however long I live, I&apos;m going to be voting for you.&apos; I mean, how many people are gonna say that?&quot;

      <video:title>Trump urges others to help protect Strait of Hormuz</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump called on other nations Monday to help secure the Strait of Hormuz, a key maritime route for the transportation of oil, but also said that &quot;we don&apos;t need anybody.&quot;

He specifically called on Japan, South Korea, China and European countries to help the U.S. defend the strait. As the war presses on, Iran has effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz in retaliation. The strait is one of the world&apos;s most critical oil passageways; around 20% of the world&apos;s oil traffic passes through it.

&quot;Numerous countries have told me they&apos;re on the way. Some are very enthusiastic about it, and some aren&apos;t,&quot; the president said. &quot;Some are countries that we&apos;ve helped for many, many years.&quot;

When asked if France would help reopen the strait, Trump, referring to French President Emmanuel Macron, said, &quot;I think he&apos;s gonna help. I mean, I&apos;ll let you know. I spoke to him yesterday.&quot;

But, Trump added, &quot;I don&apos;t do a hard sell on them because my attitude is we don&apos;t need anybody. We&apos;re the strongest nation in the world. We have the strongest military, by far, in the world. We don&apos;t need them.&quot;

Last week, Macron announced the deployment of aircraft and warships to the Middle East, eastern Mediterranean and Red Sea in a move he called strictly &quot;defensive.&quot;

      <video:title>Consciousness is a mystery</video:title>
      <video:description>What is consciousness, really?

We don’t know. Scientists aren’t sure. Philosophers can’t agree. All we have is the fact that it feels like something to be you right now. Beyond that, human consciousness remains a complete mystery.

Sean talks with Michael Pollan about his new book, A World Appears, which is about what we do and don’t know about consciousness and why it continues to be one of the great miracles of nature. They get into why consciousness has proven so hard to define, whether the self is real or just a useful fiction, what psychedelics and meditation reveal about the mind, and why even serious neuroscientists are starting to question strict materialism. Along the way, they wander into plant intelligence, AI psychosis, ego death, and the unsettling possibility that not knowing might actually be the right place to land.

      <video:title>How smart design can benefit senior living</video:title>
      <video:description>By 2040, the US Census Bureau projects that, for the first time in the US, adults over the age of 65 will outnumber children under 18. The trend is set to continue as Gen X and millennials age, but where will everyone live, and who is designing those spaces?

Vox visits The Pryde, an affordable senior housing community in Boston, to see the design features of the Hyde Park community and understand how thoughtful design can transform what senior living looks and feels like.

      <video:description>Neon signs aren&apos;t as ubiquitous as they once were, but the artistry has been receiving renewed appreciation. Wil Kirkman was well-known for his ability to make and repair intricate and fragile glass lights. Kirkman died of cancer last year, but Marcia Franklin of Idaho Public Television got the chance to see him at work before his passing and reports for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.

      <video:title>The most interesting fruit in the world could go extinct</video:title>
      <video:description>Bananas are one of the world’s most popular fruits. They’re a staple crop in Asia, Africa, and Latin America. In the US, the average person eats more than 25 pounds of bananas per year. 

The banana found in nearly every lunch bag, smoothie, and cereal is likely a Cavendish banana (a single variety that accounts for 99 percent of global exports), despite there being over 1,000 different species of bananas. This kind of uniformity is what allows the beloved banana to be cheap, durable, and ubiquitous.

It also makes them extremely vulnerable.

A variant of Panama disease, a soil fungus that once wiped out the world’s most commercial banana, the Gros Michel, in the 1950s, is back. And this time, there’s no obvious replacement for it waiting around the corner. So what will it take to save one of the world’s most beloved fruits?

This video explores how monocropping became both a blessing and a curse in the search for the most commercially viable banana, how this assumed ubiquity could lead to the end of the banana as we know it, and what scientists are doing to prevent the extinction of the Cavendish.

      <video:description>Platypuses disappeared from Australia&apos;s oldest national park decades ago. 

Now scientists are bringing them back, helping reestablish a long-lost link in the local food chain. 

A new study suggests that the reintroduction program is working — nearly all of the released platypuses are alive, and they&apos;re having babies, demonstrating that rewilding iconic species can work.

      <video:title>Alone in a cage with cocaine | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>Addiction is one of those words that seems obvious until you try to explain it. We tend to fall back on two simple stories. Either addiction is a moral failure or it’s a brain disease that robs people of agency entirely. But neither of those stories feels complete.

Today’s guest is philosopher Hanna Pickard, author of What Would You Do Alone in a Cage With Nothing But Cocaine? Pickard argues that it’s a harmful mistake to treat addiction as either sin or sickness. Instead, it’s a form of behavior that’s shaped by trauma, isolation, identity, social conditions, and often deep psychological pain.

Sean and Hanna talk about her theory of addiction and why our society has built the cage that so many people are trying to escape.

      <video:title>A pro-Israel case against Israel | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Ambassador Rahm Emanuel, Obama’s former chief of staff, says Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who’s at the center of the Iran conflict, has isolated Israel like never before.

During his time as President Barack Obama’s chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel dealt directly with Netanyahu, even once getting into an argument with him in the Oval Office. Emanuel’s also one of very few people to have operated at every level of power in American politics, and he has a specific lens when it comes to the growing conflict in Iran.

Emanuel was one of the people who helped negotiate peace agreements alongside President Clinton in the 1990s. He was also in the Obama White House as they took the first steps toward the Iran nuclear deal.

In this interview with Emanuel, Vox’s Astead Herndon asks about the US-Israel relationship as the two countries collaborate on a widening war against Iran and its proxies in the Middle East. This war, according to Emanuel, is as much the responsibility of the Trump administration as it is Israel’s.

01:16 The Trump admin’s justifications for the Iran war 
05:24 Was the Iran nuclear deal a good idea? 
06:45 Did Israel force the Trump administration’s hand?

11:11 Is Palestine a genocide? 
16:16 US aid to Israel 
18:01 K-12 education and social media ban 
22:46 Possibility of presidential run

      <video:title>Why are we at war with Iran? | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>What the hell just happened in Iran?

The US launched an attack last weekend, and within hours, the explanations were already shifting. Is this regime change? Will it be a few days? A few months? Several years? By the time you’re listening to this, the situation may have moved again. So this is a quick, emergency TGAF about where things currently stand.

Sean calls up Wall Street Journal national security reporter Alex Ward to walk through what we actually know, what we don’t, and what could come next. They talk about the risk of regional escalation, the “break it and walk away” strategy, and why the range of possible outcomes right now is…uncomfortably wide.

Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)
Guest: Alexander Ward (@alexbward)

0:54 Why did America strike Iran?
4:53 Was there evidence of an imminent threat?
12:40 It’s “wartime jazz”
19:05 What would regional war mean?
32:42 What is Alex Ward keeping an eye on?

      <video:title>Maybe you shouldn’t own small pets #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>We hate to break it to you, but your small pet is probably miserable. Each year, American households buy tens of millions of small animals — mostly fish, but also gerbils, lizards, birds, snakes, frogs, turtles, and more — to keep as pets. But, at the end of the day, these animals aren’t meant to be in captivity, which brings up the ethical question: Is it cruel to keep these animals?

      <video:title>Filming British romance is all about location #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>Readers and audiences have been falling in love with British romance stories for centuries. Books by authors like the Brontë sisters and Jane Austen still fly off the shelves, and they’ve been adapted for the big and small screen dozens of times. 

But how do great filmmakers adapt 19th-century writing into epic cinema? It’s all about the location. 

From endless moors to massive estates, Britain plays a leading role in two of its biggest cultural exports: Wuthering Heights and Pride and Prejudice.

      <video:title>Why didn’t the Constitution prevent Trump from attacking Iran? #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>You can blame the Founding Fathers for President Donald Trump’s ability to attack Iran without Congressional approval. Why? They didn’t expect the US to have a standing army, which led them to believe that the president wouldn’t have many troops under their command and to create a Constitution unprepared for the US’s military power.

      <video:title>Why modern life is designed to keep you anxious — and what to do about it | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>We use the word “anxiety” to describe stress, dread, worry, panic, even vibes. Which just goes to show: We really don’t know what anxiety is, or where it comes from, or what we’re supposed to do with it.

Today’s guest is philosopher Samir Chopra, author of Anxiety: A Philosophical Guide. Chopra argues that anxiety is a permanent feature of being human and the price of being a free, self-conscious creature in an uncertain world. Sean and Samir talk about the difference between fear and anxiety, why modern life seems engineered to keep us on edge, and what Buddhism, existentialism, and Freud can teach us about the anxious mind.

      <video:title>Rep. Ro Khanna on Iran and the War Powers resolution #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>“This is exactly what Donald Trump ran against. He said, ‘No more endless wars.’”

Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California talked with Vox’s Astead Herndon ahead of this weekend’s strikes on Iran about the War Powers Act, which would force the White House to seek congressional approval before any type of military offensive.

      <video:description>Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California is locked into two major issues: the Epstein files and artificial intelligence. 

He talked with Vox’s Astead Herndon about how Democrats need to distance themselves from the “Epstein class” and how the government needs to be doing more to regulate AI for this week’s Saturday episode of Today, Explained.

      <video:title>Did Democrats do enough to stop Epstein? | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Our politics are deeply divided — there’s Democrat vs. Republican, there’s left vs. right. But maybe the biggest divide in our politics is the insider vs. outsider divide.

That’s only gotten more noticeable in recent months, as issues like the Epstein files and artificial intelligence have pitted the elites against everyone else. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) is at the center of both of those issues. He wrote the Epstein Files Transparency Act. He brought one of Jeffrey Epstein’s abuse survivors to this week&apos;s State of the Union address. And he’s coined the term “the Epstein class” — the group of wealthy and connected individuals that he wants to bring to accountability. Even if they’re fellow Democrats.

Khanna represents Silicon Valley in his district, so he has worked with companies like Google and Meta for years. That puts him at the forefront of one of the important political and economic questions of the coming year: Is AI about to put us all out of work? And is the government prepared to do anything about it?

      <video:title>Why Gen Z men want kids (and women don’t) #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>The cliché is always that it&apos;s men who are afraid of commitment and having kids. But a Pew Research poll just shows that, for Gen Z, it&apos;s the women who are more hesitant to start a family. 

Is the &quot;motherhood penalty&quot; finally scaring women away, or are men just seeing family life through a different lens? Sean Illing and Anna North break down why the &quot;lost generation&quot; is suddenly so divided.

      <video:title>Gen Z men want babies. Gen Z women don’t. | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>A lot of Gen Z men sound surprisingly excited about fatherhood. A lot of Gen Z women…do not. 

And that divide — and the national handwringing about it — says a lot about the changing status of men and women in this country, and the uncomfortable realization that for American policymakers, not all children are created equal. 

Today’s guest on The Gray Area is Vox reporter and bestselling novelist Anna North, who covers kids, parenting, and American family life. She writes the Vox newsletter Kids Today, and her latest chart-topping novel is Bog Queen. She recently reported on the gap between young men and young women on parenthood and what that might tell us about gender roles, relationships, and the future of family formation in a politically polarized country.

Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)
Guest: Anna North, Staff Writer, Vox

3:30 The poll that revealed a massive parenting gender gap in Gen Z.
11:20 Why &quot;Tradwife&quot; content and traditional values are finding a new audience.
15:43 The Gen Z family split
23:11 The &quot;Care Crisis&quot; and the trauma of modern immigration enforcement on children.
26:15 The future of the American family in 2026 and beyond.

      <video:title>Casey Means and the no good, very bad month for MAHA #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>Although the US is about to hit 1,000 measles cases — which puts us on pace to surpass last year’s total — President Donald Trump’s nominee for surgeon general, Casey Means, presented a wishy-washy stance on whether children should get the MMR vaccine at her confirmation hearing on Wednesday. 

This is a reflection on the greater MAHA movement, which initially grew popular because it was identifying some real concerns that many Americans have, but has now been taking some big losses that look increasingly out of touch as the nation’s public health situation deteriorates.

      <video:title>Brazil vs. the US: Two insurrections, different results #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>On January 8, 2023, thousands of supporters of Brazil’s right-wing former President Jair Bolsonaro stormed federal buildings in the country’s capital. Their goal? Overthrow the results of an election they claimed was rigged, despite no credible evidence of fraud. 

That might sound oddly familiar to the January 6, 2021 attack on the US Capitol, just two years earlier. But the aftermath could not be more different. Jair Bolsonaro is now serving a 27-year prison sentence, while Donald Trump is president, again. 

So how did two democracies, facing similar threats, end up with such different outcomes? #Brazil #Bolsonaro #Trump #January6

      <video:description>Imagine a Democratic presidential win in 2028. While Democrats would be thrilled, they’d pretty quickly face a tough question: how do you undo years of institutional change without weakening democratic norms in the process?

Today, Explained host Noel King went to Poland — where this dynamic is already playing out — to learn more about the challenges of democratic recovery.

      <video:title>To fight authoritarianism, America should look to Brazil</video:title>
      <video:description>On January 8, 2023, thousands of supporters of Brazil’s right-wing former President Jair Bolsonaro stormed federal buildings in the country’s capital. Their goal? Overthrow the results of an election they claimed was rigged, despite no credible evidence of fraud. 

If that sounds familiar, that’s because it is. Brazil’s January 8 looked a lot like the January 6 attack on the US capital, just two years earlier: mob violence, an insurrection, and a defeated leader who refused to concede.

But the aftermath could not be more different. Jair Bolsonaro is now serving a 27-year prison sentence, while Donald Trump is president, again. 

So how did two democracies, facing similar threats, end up with such different outcomes? This video explains how Brazil’s democratic system worked to hold “the Trump of the Tropics” accountable and what the US could learn from the aftermath.

      <video:title>How mindfulness got weird | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>Mindfulness is everywhere now, which is kind of weird.

What started as a countercultural practice has become a productivity hack and a billion-dollar app ecosystem. On one level, it’s great that more people are meditating. But somewhere along the way, the whole thing got flattened. When mindfulness is mainly about optimizing your output, we’ve probably missed the point.

Today’s guest is Jon Kabat-Zinn, pioneer of the American mindfulness movement and author of the mega-bestseller Wherever You Go, There You Are. Jon’s work helped bring meditation into medicine, schools, sports, and everyday life. He’s also spent decades reminding people that mindfulness isn’t about escape, self-improvement, or becoming some perfectly serene version of yourself.

Sean and Jon talk about what mindfulness actually is, why being present is so damn hard, and what happens when industry turns meditation into another tool for self-optimization.

This episode originally aired in December of 2023.

Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)
Guest: Jon Kabat-Zinn, author of Wherever You Go, There You Are: Mindfulness Meditation in Everyday Life.

00:00 Intro
03:02 Mindfulness vs. mindlessness
13:12 What to do when you have a lapse in attention
19:36 The mindfulness industry
34:10 Recognizing this moment
36:46 A meditation led by Jon Kabat-Zinn

      <video:title>How Jeffrey Epstein fooled America | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Jeffrey Epstein remained a thriving member of the elite for decades, even when everyone seemed to know what he was doing. His sphere of influence included top political officials, CEOs, corporate executives, finance managers, and even a member of the British royal family. How did he manage it? It turns out it was by establishing an elaborate network of influence and access that went well beyond the norms and expectations of the rich and famous.

What were the tipping points that nearly brought Epstein to justice in the 14 years before his first conviction and his final 2019 arrest? What were the structures and systems that failed to stop him from abusing and exploiting young women and girls in those 14 years? In this episode, we tick through the guest lists and institutions that continued to profit from relationships with Jeffrey Epstein — and which helped him remain free, in turn.

We will also talk about many of the conspiracy theories that have popped up since the latest tranche of Epstein documents came out. Was Epstein a national security asset? Did he actually kill himself?

Independent journalist Tara Palmeri, author of the Red Letter Substack and host of The Tara Palmeri Show, argues that conspiracies are important to help the public understand the extent and scope of the Epstein scandal — since for so long, so much about the story was covered up. We’ll make sense of which conspiracies have validity and which are tinfoil hat material, in this interview with a journalist who has long advocated for and written about the Epstein survivors.

00:00 Intro: What we do and do not know about Epstein
03:31 The stories of the Epstein survivors
07:56 The conspiracy theories around Epstein
11:21 The elite enablers around Epstein
17:08 The political cover-up over Epstein
19:13 The conspiracy theorizing around Epstein
22:13 The elite lies around Epstein

      <video:title>How did American immigration turn into law enforcement? #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>In the history section on ICE’s website, one line reads: “Despite U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement&apos;s relatively young age, its functional history predates the modern birth of the agency by more than 200 years.” That phrasing of “functional history” stands out. We know that ICE was created in 2003. So what exactly do they mean by that? 

To unpack this claim, Vox producer Nate Krieger examines the history of immigration enforcement in the US. Watch the full video here on YouTube or on Vox’s Patreon.

      <video:title>What was immigration like before ICE?</video:title>
      <video:description>In the history section on ICE’s website, one line reads: “Despite U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement&apos;s relatively young age, its functional history predates the modern birth of the agency by more than 200 years.” That phrasing of “functional history” stands out. We know that ICE was created in 2003. So what exactly do they mean by that? To unpack this claim, Vox producer Nate Krieger examines the history of immigration enforcement in the US. 

The story of American immigration is one of gradual change. Over time, the role of the immigration services slowly changed, morphing from an agency that managed labor and benefits to one that saw itself as law enforcement, with a focus on national security. 

And with that shift came a growth in capacity. The first federal immigration agency was created in 1891 with a total staff of 4 people. Today, with ICE, that number is over 22,000.

So how did immigration restrictions and enforcement change over the span of American history? By examining the centuries of events that culminated in the creation of ICE, we can begin to understand the context that created this modern agency.

      <video:title>Why the Stephen Colbert censorship story is messy #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>CBS lawyers told Stephen Colbert he couldn’t have Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico on his show (and that he certainly couldn’t talk about this act of censorship either). He did both anyway, getting around the order by posting the interview on YouTube in a move that has since gone viral. 

This is just another incident of the Trump administration and the FCC attempting to censor late-night talk show hosts. Who might be next? Read more: https://www.vox.com/politics/479552/carr-fcc-colbert-cbs-censor-paramount-trump-late-show-explained

      <video:title>JB Pritzker wants to take down Trump | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has a playbook for fighting back against the Trump administration, and he says it’s working. Few Democratic politicians have leaned into the fight against the Trump administration as aggressively as he has. While some blue-state leaders have tried to find a lane of compromise or quiet resistance, Pritzker has gone the other direction: signing laws to limit ICE operations in Illinois, creating an accountability commission staffed by retired federal judges, suing the federal government, and successfully blocking the deployment of federalized National Guard troops on Chicago’s streets.

Pritzker is a unique figure in Democratic politics. A billionaire heir to the Hyatt hotel fortune, he has spent tens of millions of his own dollars to push for a more progressive income tax in Illinois and has advocated for a national wealth tax — policies that would directly cost him money. He&apos;s also a Jewish Democrat who has navigated his party’s shifting positions on Israel and Gaza and is a two-term governor who has drawn some public support as a potential 2028 presidential candidate.

      <video:title>Why GLP-1 drugs are a solution for some and a problem for others #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>GLP-1 drugs seem to be everywhere these days. One in eight adults say they’re taking the drugs. And brands like Wegovy and Ro even ran commercials during the Super Bowl. But are GLP-1s a one-size-fits-all solution? Not exactly. 

Clinical psychologist Dr. Sera Lavelle spoke to Today, Explained guest host Jonquilyn Hill about whether GLP-1 drugs are harmful or hurtful, and why the answer to that question is nuanced and dependent on a patient’s history.

      <video:title>Finland’s failed fascist movement #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>In the 1930s, a radical conservative faction almost pushed Finland into full authoritarianism. Called the Lapua movement, it was a far-right group of Finns who sought to overthrow the republic, marginalize communists, and install an authoritarian government. But then…something happened. Almost overnight, the Lapua movement collapsed. And democracy in Finland has been stable ever since. 

Vox producer Nate Krieger investigated the rise and fall of the Lapua movement to find out exactly how Finland managed to stave off this anti-democratic threat — and what modern democracies can learn from this perilous moment in history.

      <video:title>The problem with gamifying life | The Gray Area</video:title>
      <video:description>Games are fun. Aren’t they?

Subscribe to our channel! http://goo.gl/0bsAjO

When we play games — board games, video games, any kind of game — something magical happens. Games allow us to explore, to create little worlds where we can be different versions of ourselves. But when we turn life into a game — where we have to get the best grade, or the most money, or the most “likes” — then games stop being fun. Why is that?

This week Sean speaks with philosopher C. Thi Nguyen about what a game really is, the difference between playing for enjoyment and playing to win, and why games lose their magic when the stakes become real.

Thi argues that the things we value in life are increasingly captured by grades and likes and downloads and step counts and a thousand other metrics that quietly rewrite what we want and what we think makes us happy.

Host: Sean Illing (@SeanIlling)
Guest: C. Thi Nguyen, author of The Score

      <video:title>Jasmine Crockett isn’t backing down | Today, Explained</video:title>
      <video:description>Rep. Jasmine Crockett wants you to know she comes by her controversies and clap-backs honestly. The representative from Texas has served just two terms in Congress, but is already a rising political star and a bona fide internet sensation. She’s also become a political lightning rod for Democrats as well as Republicans. Crockett has built her brand on coining phrases that are almost President Donald Trump-like in their virality. She goes after the president and the administration relentlessly, and says it&apos;s the only way to stay relevant and gain voters’ trust in the Trump era.

But if Democrats are less than thrilled with her performance, that’s due more to style than substance, at least, according to her. This week on Today, Explained, Vox’s Astead Herndon travels to Washington, DC, to meet with Crockett and finds her unwilling to back down from her most controversial statements, including comments about some Latino voters having a “slave mentality” and that she doesn’t need Trump voters to win.

Regret and apology are not Crockett’s brand, which has many Democrats worrying about her candidacy for a Senate seat in Texas. In this interview, she walks through her plan and formula for winning that Senate seat: running up the numbers among Black voters, the most loyal voting block for Democrats in Texas, and encouraging nonvoters to participate in the primary.

      <video:title>The House of Representatives is stuck at 435 seats. That’s a problem.  #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>For more than a century, the size of the House of Representatives has been frozen at 435 seats — and in that same period, the US population has tripled. This means that today, the average representative is responsible for more than 750,000 constituents. Scholars and politicians argue this imbalance helps explain why many Americans feel disconnected from Congress. 

Rep. Sean Casten (D-IL) has introduced a bill that would expand the House, aiming to restore a vision closer to what the founders intended: a House that expanded with the population. Supporters say more seats could improve representation, but the idea raises a key question: Would a larger House function better — or just add to the gridlock? Vox explores the math, history, and future of a “bigger” American democracy.

      <video:title>The House of Representatives is too small. Here is one way to fix it.</video:title>
      <video:description>For more than a century, the size of the House of Representatives has been frozen at 435 seats; in that same period, the US population has tripled. This means that today, the average representative is responsible for more than 750,000 constituents. Scholars and politicians say this imbalance is why many Americans feel like Congress is disconnected from them. 

So what if we…added more seats? That’s what Rep. Sean Casten (D-IL) is proposing in a new bill because he believes it’s closer to what the country’s founders originally envisioned. While expanding Congress could make our ratio of voters to representatives smaller, it also raises a difficult question: Can a larger, more crowded legislature actually govern, or are we just adding more voices to the gridlock? Vox dives into the math, the history, and the potential future of a &quot;bigger&quot; American democracy.

      <video:title>Why an uprising in Iran could be ‘unpredictable’</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump said in a Reuters interview Thursday that if Iranian Kurdish troops based in Iraq wanted to cross the border and launch an offensive against Iran, it would be &quot;wonderful&quot; and he&apos;d &quot;be all for it.&quot;

The addition of the Kurds -- a ethnic group estimated to include between 25-45 million people mostly spread across Eastern Europe and the Middle East -- to the conflict in Iran &quot;could be very, very unpredictable,&quot; retired Rear Admiral John Kirby told PBS News&apos; Amna Nawaz.

Kirby, who served as White House national security communications adviser in the Biden administration, said he needs more clarity about the Trump administration&apos;s plans in Iran.

&quot;I do worry a little bit about trying to foment an uprising when you clearly aren&apos;t going to be on the ground yourself to help direct how that goes,&quot; he said. &quot;You&apos;re counting on another party here, who may be well-trained or not, to sort of take it in a direction that you&apos;re expecting it to go.&quot;

      <video:title>WATCH: RFK Jr. urges boost to medical school nutrition training</video:title>
      <video:description>Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Thursday that more than 50 medical schools have agreed to teach more about nutrition.

He made the announcement alongside Education Secretary Linda McMahon. Kennedy said the schools will now require 40 hours of what he called &quot;comprehensive nutrition education.&quot;

Kennedy and McMahon insisted the initiative was not a mandate, but some universities have expressed concern about federal interference. Kennedy has been pressuring universities to embrace his recommendations for months.

The announcement comes as Kennedy has been pivoting away from talking about his controversial push to overhaul vaccine policy and focusing more on food and nutrition.

      <video:title>White House responds to Americans stuck in Middle East</video:title>
      <video:description>The White House has gotten pushback this week for how it’s handling the evacuation of Americans from the Middle East after the U.S.-Israeli attacks on Iran.

Americans in 14 countries across the Middle East were urged to evacuate on Monday by the U.S. State Department. But they weren’t immediately offered any chartered or military flights.

As strikes from the U.S. and Israel continued and Iran retaliated, commercial air space and airports closed and 19,000 flights have been canceled. In Wednesday&apos;s White House briefing, the first since the conflict began, reporters asked press secretary Karoline Leavitt what the State Department is doing to get Americans out of the Middle East.

      <video:title>As U.S.-Israeli strikes intensify, Iran says it&apos;s no longer looking to negotiate</video:title>
      <video:description>Just days after the U.S. and Israel launched the war with Iran by targeting and killing its supreme leader, President Trump said he should be involved in selecting the country’s next leader. As the war spreads across the region, there&apos;s little sign of a let-up as the U.S. and Israel press the attack inside Iran. Geoff Bennett reports.

      <video:title>Secretary Kristi Noem is out as Homeland Security secretary</video:title>
      <video:description>President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he is replacing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem with Sen. Markwayne Mullin.

&quot;The Highly Respected United States Senator from the Great State of Oklahoma, Markwayne Mullin, will become the United States Secretary of Homeland Security (DHS), effective March 31, 2026,&quot; Trump said in a social media post.

Noem will become special envoy for the Shield of Americas, a new security initiative in the Western Hemisphere.

Her exit comes after her testimony this week before House and Senate committees, where she was pressed by both parties on a number of issues, including the deadly use of force against U.S. citizens in Minnesota. A few lawmakers called for her resignation in the hearings.

Trump reportedly spoke to Republican lawmakers about his frustration with her performances in those hearings.

During her time leading the Department of Homeland Security, Noem faced criticism from Democrats and some Republicans over her conduct while overseeing Trump&apos;s immigration crackdown. The agency, which is currently affected by a partial government shutdown, has been roiled by widespread backlash over its aggressive tactics.

The job of Homeland Security secretary, a Cabinet position, requires Senate confirmation.

      <video:title>5 things to know about the 2026 Winter Paralympics</video:title>
      <video:description>The Winter Paralympic Games are here.

Fifty years after the first Paralympics were held in Sweden in 1976, this year&apos;s competition in Italy will feature a record-breaking 655 athletes, representing 50 nations across six sports.

Sixty-eight athletes from the U.S. are expected to compete.

As often happens with international sporting events, geo-political crisis and controversy loom. Israel and Iran are planning to send an athlete each to the Games in the wake of joint U.S.-Israel strikes against Iran. And athletes from Russia and Belarus can compete under their countries&apos; flags for the first time since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

PBS News breaks down what you need to know about the Paralympics ahead of the opening ceremony March 6.

      <video:title>How Americans feel about U.S-Israel attacks on Iran #shorts</video:title>
      <video:description>A majority of Americans oppose military action in Iran and don’t like the way President Donald Trump is handling the issue, according to the newest PBS News/ NPR/ Marist Poll.

The survey found 56% of Americans oppose U.S. military action in Iran, while 44% support it. Support for U.S. action has remained relatively steady since January, before the attacks began. The poll was conducted in the days after an Iranian drone strike on a command center in Kuwait killed six U.S. soldiers.

Fifty-four percent said they disapproved of how Trump is handling Iran, while 36 percent approved.

A plurality of Americans – 44% – see Iran as a major threat to U.S. security. Another 40% of Americans consider Iran a minor threat and 15% see no threat at all.

      <video:title>Exploring the power and mystery of consciousness</video:title>
      <video:description>All of us experience consciousness. We have thoughts and feelings, and we&apos;re aware of those acting upon us. It&apos;s the hidden internal lens through which we view the world, but why do we have this power, and are we the only ones that do? Horizons moderator William Brangham explores this defining aspect of being human with Michael Pollan, author of &quot;A World Appears: A Journey into Consciousness.&quot;

      <video:title>Americans stranded abroad as Iran war erupted describe struggle to return home</video:title>
      <video:description>When the U.S. ignited a war with Iran last weekend, the State Department issued a plea to Americans to &quot;depart now&quot; from several countries in the region. But airspace closures left thousands of Americans suddenly stranded, and regions typically considered safe for travel became targets of Iranian missile strikes. We spoke with some of the Americans who were impacted.

Here’s why this endless conflict matters far beyond Africa’s borders.

You hear it everywhere these days: Fascism is back. I wanted to know if that was true. But first I had a lot to learn about what fascism actually means.

If you want to learn more about fascism, we also created a reading list you can check out here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QJhL0su0W0h5OplsWC9egqP4KB84bXZyYZWHf2ZhXU0/edit?tab=t.0

For centuries, elites and the people have been in a battle for who controls information, and who has access to it. Recently, people have been drowning in a sea of algorithmic noise and divisive headlines. 

That’s why we’re launching Newpress - to provide a community where people can see how our journalism works and participate in the process.

One of my upcoming videos is a deep dive investigation into global money laundering - and it’s live NOW for founding members on Newpress. We will also be publishing it on YouTube soon.

We hear a lot about Taiwan in the news lately. But we don’t hear much about how the conflict over this small island started. We’ll walk you through, not just the history of the conflict, but how the motivations of the powers involved have evolved and made Taiwan what it is today.

Most Americans don’t realize it, but the country we call home is actually the SECOND United States of America. What came first was a story of failure, embarrassment, and chaos that gave us some of the weirdest features of the modern-day American government.

American elections have more money flowing through them than any other country’s elections, yes adjusted for population, and it isn&apos;t even close. How did we get here? What does something called &quot;Citizens United&quot; have to do with it? And who&apos;s pumping all this money into our elections?

The number of enormous fortunes has exploded in recent decades — and with them, the influence of the 0.0001%. We dive into how those worth anywhere between $100 million to $100 billion spend and protect their wealth, from luxury real estate and superyachts to political and cultural power plays that shape life for the rest of us.

Tons of data for this story came from: https://globalfishingwatch.org/

On Google Earth, the world’s oceans look like endless blue pixels — but AIS tracking reveals tens of thousands of ships moving across them in real time. Many of these vessels can vanish from view with the push of a button, hiding a global fishing industry that operates in the dark and traps laborers in brutal conditions. I teamed up with my colleague Christophe to understand what ships do when they disappear.

Area 51 has long been linked to aliens and UFOs, but the real story is even stranger. We went to Area 51 ourselves to uncover the secret history of America’s most classified base, from Cold War deception to the creation of stealth technology, and to understand why Area 51 still captures the world’s imagination.

Disclaimer: PolyMatter is available on Spotify. We have no special relationship with the company and have thus far earned a total of $4.75 from the platform. That said, it only feels right to let you know that we technically have a (very small) financial interest in the company. Audible, an audiobook competitor, has sponsored videos from this channel in the past. Skillshare, which has partnered with Spotify for its learning courses, has also sponsored this channel. Finally, nothing in this video is intended as investment advice.</video:description>
