"Live from NPR news, I'm Dale Wilman.
President Trump says the U.S. may hit pickaxe mountain in Iran, the site is home to a big
“part of Iran's nuclear program, and appears Franco Ordonia's reports."”
President Trump says the U.S. may end up striking the underground nuclear facility very soon. The President has repeatedly boasted that through U.S. Space Force, the United States is able to watch every square inch of the area. "We know everybody that's moving at pickaxe.
We know everybody that's moving everywhere all over Iran. And if anything goes mad, we hit him. We hit him hard."
It's not the first time Trump has threatened to strike the mysterious underground facility.
He spoke of bombing the site after a satellite image is appeared to show construction happening on nearby tunnels. That were also close to another nuclear facility bomb by the U.S. Franco Ordonia's NPR news, the White House.
“The U.S. job market had a major turnaround in August.”
The news surprised Navy Federal Credit Union Economist Heather Long. "The August Jobs report was, wow, 162,000 jobs added is three times what was expected. There were a lot more people searching for jobs in August. The job gains were way more than just healthcare. And the unemployment rate remained low at 4.1%.
"Revisions to figures from earlier months also added 55,000 jobs to June and July payrolls. But the cost of diesel fuel hit a record price on Friday, rising to a nationwide average of 585 a gallon, Wall Street responded to the mixed news by dropping across the board with all major indices down for the day." A federal judge in Minnesota has ruled against Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company
and it's challenged to a ban on explicit deep fake photos. His NPR's Bombay Allen reports, Musk's lawyers argue the ban is a free speech violation. Musk's XAI lets users generate sexual images using artificial intelligence, including realistic looking images that remove people's clothes. After a law in Minnesota banned AI services known as Nudify Apps, XAI sued, alleging that the
rules violate the first amendment.
Now a federal judge in Minnesota is allowing the state to enforce its crackdown on sexually explicit deep fakes, but Musk's suit can go forward in the meantime. Other states, including Texas and California, have passed laws targeting the proliferation of AI-powered Nudify Apps, Bobby Allen and P.R. News. A Massachusetts judge declared a mistrial Friday and the murder case against Lindsey Clancy.
Juris could not agree on whether she was criminally responsible when she strangled her three young children in 2023. She had faced life in prison without parole if she was convicted of first-degree murder. Her lawyer said post-partum psychosis left her unable to control her behavior. You're listening to NPR News.
Israel has released five prisoners to the International Committee of the Red Cross as part of a deal with Lebanon. In return Lebanon is agreed to search for the bodies of Jewish Lebanese citizens missing since the Civil War decades ago to release follows negotiations mediated by the U.S. After a decades-long legal fight, 145 survivors of alleged sexual abuse by Catholic clergy
and staff in a Minnesota diocese will be paid $30 million.
As Minnesota Public Radio's Molly Castle Work reports, the survivors reached a settlement with the diocese's largest insurer that could have implications for similar cases. The settlement with the United States fire insurance company covers alleged incidents of abuse stating back to the early 1960s. Attorney Jeff Anderson represents the survivors.
“He says the agreement sets an important precedent.”
For years, the insurance industry and this insurance company have been refusing to pay fair value on these cases. In Minnesota, in California, in New York and across this country, this is a break through. The Winona Rochester diocese settled the abuse claims in 2021, but the insurer had refused to pay until now.
The insurer's parent company did not respond to her request for comment. For NPR News, I'm Molly Castle Work in Rochester, Minnesota. Serena and Venus Williams are out of the U.S. open women's tennis doubles after losing an image tiebreaker Friday. The sisters blew a 5-0 lead in the 10-point tiebreaker and were beat by how Ching-chan and

of an independent party, but we recognize that in the United States they're just as a two-party system. How Democratic Socialists are staking out political territory.
