Negotiations between the U.S. and Iran have ended in Pakistan. Vice President Jadi Vance led the U.S. delegation and says no agreement was reached. He says a major roadblock was Iran not agreeing to end their nuclear weapons program. In the Middle East, the U.S. says two warships have passed through the hotly-contested straight-of-war moves, the straightest and major conduit for crude oil supplies, leaving
the Middle East, and traffic has been blocked for weeks.
As NPR has a lot of wise reports, it's the first transit of American warships since
the start of the Iran War six weeks ago. The Defense Department says two maybe-guided missile destroyers passed through the straight of four moves.
“As the critical water passageway has become a key landmark in the ongoing conflict.”
U.S. Central Command said that the U.S. forces had begun setting conditions to clear Iranian sea mines, planted throughout the waterway. The blockage of the straight has led to global energy concerns, and the spikes in the prices of oil and natural gas. Central Command said additional American forces would join in helping to clear the straight
of removes of mines in the coming days, along a wise NPR news. The crew from Artemis II is now back in Houston where they received a big welcome Saturday from their NASA support team. It was an emotional return for the four crew members. U.S. team commander Reed Wiseman struggled to say just what to trip to the moon meant
for him. Victor, Christina and Jeremy, we are bonded forever. And no one down here is ever going to know what the four of us just went through. And it was the most special thing that will ever happen in my life.
The trip was NASA's first lunar fly-by in more than 50 years.
After federal immigration agents killed two people, and wounded a third during the Ice Surge of Minneapolis, federal officials have released very little information about investigations into the shootings. Minnesota officials expected to join probe with the federal government, but as NPR has made Anderson reports, that's not what's happening.
Minnesota sued the Trump administration in March accusing it of withholding evidence in the shootings. Hennepen County Attorney Mary Moriarty is a plaintiff in the lawsuit.
“In any time law enforcement takes the life of a community member, it's really important”
that there be a thorough and complete investigation. In the case of Renee Good, who was killed by an ice officer, the Department of Homeland Security told NPR, quote, "The matter remains under investigation." Fort Julio Sosa Salis, who was shot and survived, DHS said an internal investigation is underway. For Alex Pretty killed by Border Patrol agents, DHS said the Justice Department
is leading the probe, and P.R. reached out to the DOJ, but did not hear back. Meg Anderson and P.R. News. And you're listening to NPR news. Major supporters of California Representative Eric Swallwell's bid for governor are now withholding that support.
The move comes following allegations that he sexually assaulted a woman twice, including once when she worked for him. Those allegations were reported by the San Francisco Chronicle, but have not been independently confirmed by NPR. Swallwell, a Democrat, has denied the allegations and says his campaign will continue, the primary election will take place on June 2nd.
A large majority of American Jews are both pro-Israel and critical of his really government
policies, and P.R. has Jason DeRos reports on a new poll of American Jews. The Jewish electorate institute found an overwhelming 86% of American Jews describe themselves as generally pro-Israel. However, fewer than one quarter, say they are both pro-Israel and supportive of Israeli policies. Nearly two-thirds identify as pro-Israel and critical of at least some of these really government's policies. Despite extensive media coverage
of the involvement of pro-Israel groups in recent U.S. primaries, few American Jews say they've been following the involvement closely, fewer than four in ten, say they have at least heard about these efforts. The survey involved 800 American Jews in mid-March. Jason DeRos and PR News. Ann Arbor is celebrated the Michigan University basketball team on Saturday. The Wolverines
beat U.Con. 69 to 63 in the NCAA title match earlier this month. The school's athletic director says Coach Dusty May has received a new contract following the win. May is in a second year with Michigan. He had inherited a team that went 8-24 this year the Wolverines were 37 and 3. I'm Dale Wilman and PR News.
