Chapter 1: What are the latest developments in the U.S.-Iran negotiations?
Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Ryland Barton. Three months into the war launched by the U.S. and Israel, Iran now says it's suspending all talks with the U.S. until Israel stops its, quote, aggression against Lebanon and Gaza. President Trump insists talks will continue, as NPR's Hadil El-Shalshi explains.
President Trump had actually seemed like he was confident about talks with Iran. Just this morning, he posted on Truth Social also that, quote, Iran really wants to make a deal and it will be a good one for the USA. He went on to say, just sit back and relax. It will all work out well in the end. It always does.
But then the semi-official Iranian news agency Tasnim that has ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said that Iran was going to hold off those talks. From the beginning, Iran has said Israel has to end its invasion of southern Lebanon, where it's occupied large swaths of land. And the U.S.
and Iran said last week they were actually close to a tentative 60-day ceasefire extension and framework to start talks to the end of the war. But the agreement is still waiting on President Trump's approval.
Chapter 2: How are rising gas prices affecting voter sentiment ahead of the elections?
And then this morning, the two countries exchanged fire with the U.S. striking Iranian radar sites.
NPR's Hadil Al-Shalchi reporting. With rising gas prices, the unpopular Iran war, and affordability concerns top of mind, voters say they are unhappy with Republican leadership. NPR's Stephen Fowler reports on the party's effort to explain why they should stay in power.
There's roughly five months to go until the November general election, and the GOP message is mixed at best. At a campaign event in Iowa last month, Vice President Vance said the election...
It's actually not any specific question of public policy.
But voters disagree. Polls show Americans have soured on multiple Trump administration policies. At a cabinet meeting last week, President Trump touted policies like a prescription drug savings program as proof his administration was working. But in a defense of the Iran war, he also said... I don't care about the midterms.
The next set of midterm primaries Tuesday include key races in Iowa and California. Stephen Fowler, NPR News.

Chapter 3: What does the recent report say about uninsured children in the U.S.?
children without health insurance is growing fast. As NPR's Selena Simmons-Duffin explains, a new report found Texas, Florida, and Georgia accounted for more than half of the increase.
Parents know that young children have a lot of doctor's appointments in their first three years. That's part of the reason why health insurance is so important during that time, says Elizabeth Burak, senior research fellow at the Georgetown Center for Children and Families.
When they don't have access to the care that they need in those early years, they're at higher risk of falling behind developmentally. She co-authored the recent report, which looked at data through 2024.
What we found is we are now at the highest level of uninsurance for children under the age of six in nearly a decade.
There are signs that this trend is only going to get worse. An analysis by Burak's colleagues found 2 million fewer children covered by Medicaid now than there were when President Trump took office. Selena Simmons-Duffin, NPR News, Washington.
You're listening to NPR News. The rise of remote work has made businesses more reluctant to hire young, inexperienced workers and is the key driver of higher unemployment rates for recent graduates, according to a new study. The authors calculate that remote work is responsible for nearly two-thirds of the rise in unemployment rates for young college graduates since the pandemic.

Chapter 4: How is remote work impacting unemployment rates for recent graduates?
Colostrum is loaded with antibodies, proteins, and vitamins that help build up a newborn's immunity and strengthen their gut lining. Preliminary studies suggest it may improve certain forms of inflammatory bowel syndrome, gastroenteritis, and upper respiratory tract infections, as well as stunting in children. But some caution it's too early to conclude it's effective.

It has one of the lower risks of some of the other products out there, but I just don't think we know enough yet.
Chapter 5: What are the health benefits of colostrum for adults?
When it comes to gut health, nutrition scientists recommend focusing on improving one's overall lifestyle first before resorting to supplements. Regular exercise, a wholesome diet, sufficient sleep, and reduced stress. For NPR News, I'm Ari Daniel.
Flamingos are flocking to the Venetian Lagoon in record numbers as ecological efforts restore damaged wetlands. The pink birds started appearing in the Italian city in the early 2000s. Last year, nearly 24,000 flamingos wintered in Venice, marking a record high. Environmentalists say their arrival signals the lagoon's health. This is NPR News.
It's June and another big week in the run-up to the midterms. Primaries in half a dozen states, including California, where new congressional maps are in place and a chaotic race for governor is wide open.
Chapter 6: What ecological changes are attracting flamingos to the Venetian Lagoon?
We're also following gas prices and Iran. So far, talk of a peace deal is just talk. We'll keep you posted. Listen every morning, up first on the NPR app or wherever you get your podcasts.
