Summary

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" gives a first look to the stories you need to know to start your day including the historic indictment of former Cuban dictator Raul Castro over the 1996 Brothers to the Rescue shootdown that killed four Americans, and why many Cuban exiles believe this could mark the beginning of the end of the Castro legacy; Jeff Bezos publicly blasting NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani for targeting billionaire Ken Griffin with class-war politics and anti-business rhetoric that critics say is driving investment out of New York; and President Trump throwing his support behind Spencer Pratt's insurgent Los Angeles mayoral campaign as frustration with Karen Bass, homelessness, drugs, crime, and city leadership continues growing, and much more.
