Live from NPR News in Washington, on Corva Colman, the U.
agreement to end the war.
“President Trump says it will reopen the Strait of Hormuz.”
He says there will be a formal signing of the deal this Friday in Geneva. The text of the agreement has not been released. There appear to be outstanding issues, including the fate of Iran's nuclear program. President Trump is now flying toward France to attend the G7 summit, and Pierre's Eleanor Beardsley reports security will be tight.
Thousands of protesters turned out Sunday in neighboring Geneva, Switzerland, against what they say is the over-concentration of political and economic power in G7 nations. The French town of Evianly buys under lockdown and practically deserted, as it prepares for the arrival of leaders from the U.S. Canada-France, Germany, the UK, Italy, and Japan. The two days of meetings will be secured by thousands of French riot police, cybercrime
and anti-terrorism squads bomb disposal units, drone pilots, helicopters, and close to 1,000 military personnel from the French air and space force. Eleanor Beardsley and Pierre News, Paris. Before he left, President Trump hosted a UFC fight night on the White House long last evening for his 80th birthday.
“The White House says it was to celebrate the nation's 250th birthday.”
Trump's critics say he brought a brutal sport to the White House, but thousands of fans showed up to cheer, Karim Zedon says this is a big step forward for the mixed martial arts organization. The UFC is making a significant statement here. It's a political one saying that it has emerged as a true political force within America
and it's reaping those benefits. It just recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the State Department. They're going to begin these sports diplomacy initiatives. That is formally integrating the UFC into foreign policy, into its soft power strategy. He spoke to NPR's morning edition.
The President's name has been removed from the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., Trump had ordered his name to be placed on top of former President John F. Kennedy's on the Kennedy Memorial Center for the Performing Arts. And Pierre's Debbie Elliott reports, Trump's name was removed after he lost a court battle.
“The grounds of the Kennedy Center were quiet Sunday afternoon, blue striped tarps remain”
draped over the building's marble facade where workers had removed the letters, spelling Donald J. Trump and in compliance with the court order.
They should never have been up in the first place.
Teacher Monica Brooks says she wanted to see the center restored to being named solely for President John F. Kennedy. It's a memorial for a dear President that died, you know, it's like putting his name on his grave. You know, it's not, it's bizarre.
A federal judge ruled only Congress has the authority to change the name, Debbie Elliott and PR news. You're listening to NPR. Kentucky's Senator Mitch McConnell was hospitalized yesterday. His office says he is receiving excellent care, but didn't say if McConnell was hospitalized
in Kentucky or in Washington, the statement did not say why he was admitted. The help of the former Senate Majority Leader has been tracked. McConnell was hospitalized in 2023 with a concussion after falling. He later twice froze and stopped speaking in the middle of news conferences that year. More than half of parents of young adults say they track their 18 to 25-year-old kids using
smartphone apps and peers' Allison Aubrey says the top reason parents give is to give them peace of mind about their child's safety. Researchers at the University of Michigan surveyed about 1,500 parents of young adults and found 52 percent track their adult kids location. Sarah Clark, who co-directs the survey says parents of 18 to 20-year-olds were more likely
to track compared to those who had kids 21 to 25. She said many parents say they want to know their child's whereabouts to make sure they're safe.
Every time it is location tracking is always on.
About 25 percent of parents say tracking may lead to anxiety more than reassurance and experts say tracking can be a good way to stay in communication, but it should not be used as a way to micromanage an adult child's life.
