Summary
The same news is still happening: Iran war negotiations are fake, Trump is threatening genocide again (and admitting he doesn't care about our finances), gas prices are still high, and there is another Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire although fire has not ceased. Ka$h Patel stories keep hitting the timeline, this time it's about a “VIP snorkeling" trip at Pearl Harbor. Mallory McMorrow launched fake doctor allegations at Abdul El-Sayed, and Matt Walsh (Matt WASHED) is beefing with... Rosa Parks???
