"Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Nora Rom, Iran responded today to the ...
U.S. proposal to end the war, it appears to focus primarily on reopening the straight
“of our moves, and the negotiations should be focused on permanently ending the war.”
The war is largely unpopular with the American people, NPR's deepest shiverom has more." A majority of Americans did not support U.S. actions in Iran from the beginning of the last war, but among Republicans, there was pretty overwhelming support for Trump and what the U.S. military was doing in Iran. Now 10 weeks into the war, though that will look as worsened a bit for Trump.
Week after week, there's polling that comes out that shows that there's this cave in support among Republicans who support Trump. A recent poll from Marist shows that a majority of Republicans do still support Trump's approach in Iran, but 22% disapprove, and that's up from 15% in March. NPR's deepest shiverom.

Jaina Rav and Pair News, Beirut, as artificial intelligence expands, Florida Governor Ronda Santas, assigned a bill that requires data centers to shoulder the cost of electricity use. Catherine Welch reports. The new law-banned data centers from shifting the cost of electricity to the public
and instead pay their own costs. It also allows local water management districts to deny permits to large-scale data centers if the water needs are harmful to the local area or already prohibited by locals zoning and planning regulations, and it keeps land regulations in the hands of local governments.

Millions of people with Medicare will soon be able to get popular weight loss drugs for $50 a month. Jackie Forty-A with our partner KFF Health News has more. Starting July 1st, GLP-1 medications like WGOV and ZEPBound will be available to some Medicare

They also need to be clinically overweight, plus have a condition like heart disease or pre-diabetes. But there are catches. The $50 copay won't count toward the annual out-of-pocket limit. The pilot also expires in December 2027 with no guarantee that the drugs will be covered under traditional Medicare after
it ends. Jackie Forty-A reporting, a cruise ship hit by the hunt of virus arrived today at the Spanish Island of Tenorif, about 60 miles off the northwest coast of Africa.
