Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Korva Coleman. President Trump welcomes Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to the White House today. They're expected to discuss Iran. NPR's Franco Ordonez reports this comes after Trump declared very good talks were happening with Iran about its nuclear program.
President Trump has repeatedly swung from threatening strikes to making a deal. Matthew Kroenig, who worked on the Iranian file at the Pentagon, says Netanyahu would prefer strikes, but also wants to do what he can to influence any potential agreement.
President Trump is known for being unpredictable. He is known for liking deals, for being a peacemaker. And I think Netanyahu is worried that maybe in that rush for a deal that the president will agree to terms that harm Israel's security.
Trump has made clear that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. But Netanyahu wants any deal to also include limits on ballistic missiles and ending support for militant proxy groups. Franco Ordonez, NPR News.
Two former assistant U.S. attorneys in Minnesota are now defending two independent black journalists. The journalists were charged in connection with the demonstration at a church last month in St. Paul. Minnesota Public Radio's Matt Sepik has more.
Don Lemon, formerly of CNN, and Minnesota journalist Georgia Fort are accused, along with seven activists, of conspiring to violate the civil rights of worshipers. The Justice Department charged them under a law that it historically used against the Ku Klux Klan. Joe Thompson, who's on Lemon's defense team, previously led the prosecution of social service program fraud in Minnesota. He and several others quit after the Justice Department pressured prosecutors to investigate the widow of Renee Macklin Goode, after an ICE agent killed Good in January. Former fraud prosecutor Matt Ebert entered private practice last year. He's part of Fort's defense team. For NPR News, I'm Matt Sepik in Minneapolis.
Authorities in western Canada say at least nine people have been killed and more than two dozen injured in a shooting yesterday. It took place at a school and at a home. Craig McCullough reports from Vancouver, British Columbia. The victims were discovered at the two separate locations.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police say they found the first victims inside the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School. One died en route to hospital and another two were found in a residence in the small town of 2,400 people in northeastern British Columbia. The shooter was found dead inside the school. RCMP Superintendent Ken Floyd says it might be hard to find any motive.
I think we will struggle to determine the why, but we're going to try and do our best to determine what transpired that day and what led up to this tragic event.
Floyd says the original alert issued in the early afternoon of a female shooter are correct. For NPR News, I'm Craig McCulloch in Vancouver.
