What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Under federal investigation. I'm Lisa Lucera, Fox News. The Justice Department has launched a probe into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry, accusing them of impeding law enforcement through public statements they have made following the surge of ICE agents to the state.
The feds are cracking down on the lawlessness. Homeland Security charging Raul Gutierrez, who they say is a Latin Kings gang member, with stealing a rifle and body armor. As some progressives call to defund ICE, congressional Democrats held a field hearing in nearby St. Paul.
What federal investigations are currently affecting Minnesota's leadership?
They point the finger at the Trump administration for the ongoing violence that intensified after an ICE agent shot and killed Rene Good in what DHS calls self-defense.
Fox's Bill Malujian in Minneapolis. Walls posted on X weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic. Mayor Fry in a statement said in part, America depends on leaders that use integrity and the rule of law as the guidepost for governance. And he wrote, neither our city nor our country will succumb to this fear. We stand rock solid. The number of dead from the crackdown on Iran protests has grown to nearly 3,100, according to human rights activists. This is President Trump is appearing to back off threats of military action in Iran.
Israel and Arab states did not persuade President Trump against military strikes in Iran, he says, but rather commitments made by the regime in Tehran. You know, Iran canceled the hanging of over 800 people. They were going to hang over 800 people yesterday, and I greatly respect the fact that they canceled that. The president has encouraged anti-government protesters in Iran to keep it up, saying earlier this week help is on its way. Since then, President Trump has been told on good authority, he says, the killing of protesters is stopping and executions are not planned.

A study led by the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia reveals the food that can stave off peanut allergies is peanuts. The research shows introducing peanuts to infants resulted in a 27% decrease in peanut allergies, as well as an overall food allergy reduction of 38%. The findings came out of a two-year study that built on data from 2015 that said exposing kids under a year old to peanuts could even dramatically reduce allergies to eggs and even cases of eczema. Experts do acknowledge some parents may not be comfortable with early exposure to peanuts, but researchers stand by their findings. Grinnell Scott, Fox News.
