"Live from NPR news, I'm Dale Wilman.
President Trump said tonight he will hold off on any more attacks against Iran, at least for now.
“In a late night social media post, he said Iran has agreed to the framework of a deal that”
would include the immediate reopening of the state of Hormuz. He also said that the deal would mean an end to what he called Iran's nuclear threat, but he offered no details about the possible deal." Officials and Idaho say several people have been killed in a number of others injured, in a shooting today at a fast food restaurant in the southern part of that state.
Twin Falls Police Chief Matthew Hicks says the incident ended quickly. "I can also reassure the community right now. We believe that the threat to the community is over. The suspected shooter in this incident is deceased." Hicks says it's not clear yet how many people were killed, police are still trying to identify
the shooter and understand the motive for the attack. If they described a scene, it's very chaotic. Twins Falls is 128 miles southeast of Boise. Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Virginia, and Washington are all holding primary elections Tuesday in Michigan.
Early voting is already underway in the primary for a critical U.S. Senate seat.
As NPR Sam Greenglass reports, the race is between a progressive insurgent and a four-term congresswoman. "The race between former public health official Abdul al-Sayed and representative Haley Stevens has become so fraught in part because it's seen as a proxy for so many debates roiling the party now.
Insider vs. outsider, farther left vs. moderate, new media vs. old. Alyssa DiBolt chair of the McComb County Democrats says she's hearing a common theme from voters. "People are pissed. People are fed up.
It's not working. This is not working for the majority of people. Gas is expensive. Groshes are expensive. Health care is insane."
“Democrats see holding on to this Michigan Senate seat as essential to retaking the Chamber”
this fall. Whoever wins Tuesday will face Republican Mike Rogers, a former congressman. Sam Greenglass and PR News Farmington Hills, Michigan.
"Can of his second largest airline west jet says it's canceled.
More than 270 flights so far today, ahead of a possible strike by flight attendance, as Dan Carpensheck reports a walkout or lockout could come as early as Sunday morning." The unions set the wheels in motion by calling a 72-hour strike notice a couple of days ago. That expires at midnight.
West jet countered by the threat of a lockout on the same timeline. The two sides are still at the bargaining table, and there are reports of some progress. But the main issue remains unpaid work, work before and after a flight. West jet says grounding some flights as aimed at preventing crew and passengers from getting stranded.
The timing of the threat and strike couldn't have come at a worse time at the height of the holiday travel season.
“And West jet passengers are bracing for travel disruptions, analysts say with the pressure”
on both sides ramping up, "They're still time to make a deal. For NPR News, I'm Dan Carpensheck in Toronto." And you're listening to NPR News. Officials in Peru say a small plane crashed Saturday near the city of Nazca, killing all 13 people on board.

A new federal plan released by the Trump administration to manage the drying Colorado River will target Arizona, California, and Nevada with big cuts, and Pierskirk Seagler has more.
Under the plan, the three Colorado River Basin states, including California, could see upwards of 40% of their river water cut. Arizona's two Democratic senators say this place is an unfair burden on their state. Next door in Nevada, Republican Governor Joe Lombardo says if given final approval, the plan could have, quote, "devastating economic and environmental impacts."
Water officials from the two states, along with the powerful metropolitan water district
and Los Angeles, are pointing to their aggressive conservation gains made lately. On Facebook, the governor of the Healer River Indian Community outside Phoenix warns that if the final plan doesn't meet U.S. treaty obligations to tribes, a court challenge could be coming. Exitler in PR News Davis Riley shot a 763 on Saturday.
He now takes a one stroke lead at the PGA event that's underway this weekend at the Detroit Gulf Club in Michigan. He closed with two consecutive birdies. He hit a 54 foot putt on number 17 and a 10 footer on 18. Michael Brennan is one stroke off the pace while four golfers, including former leader
Cameron Young, are three shots back in third. I'm Dale Wilman, NPR News. While it seems like everything is being called a recession indicator these days. Yeah, like the box of hamburger helper in my pantry. Or the new Apple Neo book or the resurgence of press on nails or lipstick or no lipstick
I've lost track. There is only one way to know if these are actual economic warning signs, though, listen to the indicator from planet money on the NPR app or wherever you get your podcasts.
