What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
A major threat. I'm Paul Stevens, Fox News. President Trump out with a stark warning late Saturday to Iran, telling Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz or else.
The president posted an ultimatum on Truth Social saying, if Iran doesn't fully open without threat the Strait of Hormuz within 48 hours from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various power plants, starting with the biggest one first. Tensions have been rising over the Strait as mines and gunboats from Iran have threatened oil tankers. Meanwhile, foreign ministers from the G7, including the U.S., France, U.K., Italy, and others, put out a statement saying they're willing to take necessary measures to ensure the security of global energy supplies.
What warning did President Trump give to Iran regarding the Strait of Hormuz?
Jill Nadeau, Fox News.
Power grid on Cuba collapsing Saturday for the third time this month, leaving the entire Caribbean nation without electricity.
This marks the third time the communist country has suffered a nationwide blackout this month. Only some hospitals, water systems and vital centers have power because of generators. This comes as the U.S. lays pressure on Cuba to force political change. President Trump imposed an oil embargo on the country three weeks ago, creating a fuel shortage which has compounded problems.
And that's Fox's Chan Lee Painter. This coming as the White House is putting pressure on Cuba's government to release political prisoners and to move toward a political and economic liberalization in a return for lifting longtime U.S. sanctions. The president has been raising a possible interest in what he calls a, quote, friendly takeover of Cuba. A Rockland County, New York, mail carrier facing new charges after police say he pushed a four-year-old boy to the ground. The 39-year-old now charged... with endangering the welfare of a child and attempted assault. America's listening to Fox News.

Police in Chicago questioning a person of interest, they say, in connection with the death of Sheridan Gorman, a Loyola University Chicago student who was shot and killed while out with friends early this past Thursday morning.
New details from the Chicago Tribune. suggest this investigation is moving at a fast pace. The outlet reports a 25-year-old man has now been arrested. The Tribune says it's obtained a police report which shows witnesses saw a man dressed entirely in black with a black face mask raise a gun and open fire as Gorman tried to run for her life. The outlet says surveillance cameras and a distinct limp helped officers track down the suspect. The shooting happened at around 1.30 a.m. on Thursday at Toby Prince Beach, minutes from the Loyola University College campus. Gorman was originally from Westchester County, New York, and only a few months away from completing her freshman year.
And that's Fox's C.B. Cotton. Gorman's family said in a statement she was only watching the northern lights at the moment she was allegedly shot and was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Former FBI Director Robert Mueller has passed away, dying at the age of 81.
He became the FBI director just a couple of days before 9-11. He was better known as the special counsel in the Russia probe. He did not find any Russian conspiracy in the 2016 election. He appeared at a big hearing back in July of 2019, and he took no stance when questioned by Democrats at that hearing. whether or not President Trump had committed a crime. He kind of hinted in his report, though, that maybe the House should consider impeaching President Trump, which they did a few months later. And in fact, he was subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee as part of the Epstein probe because of his role as FBI director, but he could not appear because he was sick with Parkinson's.
And that's Fox's chat program. Mueller serving as special counsel investigating suspected Russian interference in the 2016 election.
