Threat of War Escalates 35:48

6 hours ago35:48

35:48

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . President Donald Trump met with his national security team in Washington on Tuesday to discuss the escalating Middle East conflict, according to people familiar with the matter, fueling fresh speculation that the US is on the verge of joining Israel’s attack on Iran. The meeting lasted over an hour and the White House provided no immediate statement afterward. Before gathering his advisers in the Situation Room, Trump posted a demand for Iran’s “UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER” and warned of a possible strike against the country’s leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “We know exactly where the so-called ‘Supreme Leader’ is hiding. He is an easy target, but is safe there - We are not going to take him out (kill!), at least not for now,” Trump posted on social media. Israel also sought to ratchet up pressure on Iran, signaling it will intensify a campaign of air strikes that have targeted the country’s nuclear facilities as well as military leaders and infrastructure. US weapons are seen as key to achieving a more complete destruction of the Islamic Republic’s atomic program than anything Israel can do alone. The escalating war began with an Israeli attack late last week and has seen the sworn enemies trade missile salvos for five days. Trump departed early from the Group of Seven leaders meeting in Canada to deal with the crisis.

ICYMI: Facial Recognition vs Facial Verification 12:00

15 hours ago12:00

12:00

Having experienced the devastating consequences of online criminal activity, founder and CEO, Andrew Bud, vowed to find a safe and secure way for organizations to verify the genuine presence of an individual. To enable this to happen it was necessary to ensure that the person setting up an online account was an actual person, and then authenticate that person whenever they return to use a digital service or verify their identity at secure locations. The Big Idea was to use facial biometrics and controlled illumination to assure the genuine presence of a human being. Why facial biometrics? Because most government-issued identity documents contain a picture of a face and an identity can be verified against a trusted source. Why controlled illumination? Because it’s completely effortless for the user – with no instructions to follow or complex actions required. Just a brief, simple selfie capture that takes just seconds to complete. This gives the most secure assurance that an individual is not an imposter, a photo, a mask, a deepfake video, or a multitude of other sophisticated cyber attack tactics being used by criminal gangs worldwide. iProov does facial verification, not facial recognition. The difference is, with verification tech like iProov's, the user consents, and derives a benefit from it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Israel/Iran Conflict Escalates, Trump at the G7 42:27

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . US President Donald Trump said Iran wants to talk about deescalating the conflict with Israel even as the two sides exchanged deadly fire for the fourth consecutive day. Asked about reports that Iran wants to work toward a resolution, Trump responded “yeah,” and added, “they’d like to talk, but they should have done that before. ”It’s painful for both parties but I would say that Iran is not winning this war,” Trump said at the start of a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney at a Group of Seven leaders summit in Kananaskis, Alberta. Asked if the US would get more involved militarily, Trump said he didn’t want to discuss it. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier Monday that Tehran is signaling it wants to de-escalate hostilities with Israel and is willing to resume nuclear talks with the US as long as Washington doesn’t join the Israeli attacks. It cited Middle Eastern and European officials it didn’t identify. A similar report by Reuters says Iran conveyed the message through Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Oman. Oil fell on the WSJ report, with Brent futures dropping around 4% after rising over 10% Friday. US Treasuries pared earlier drops and European bonds gained as traders reacted to diminishing concerns about inflation. About the same time as Trump was speaking, Iran’s semi-official Mehr News Agency cited a senior security official as saying the country is prepared to deliver a “major blow” to Israel following its recent strikes on Iranian cities and targets. Shortly afterward, air raid sirens sounded as Israel reported it had detected more missile launches.

Israel, Iran Warn More to Come After Missile Barrages 33:06

33:06

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . Iran fired hundreds of missiles in retaliation for Israel’s airstrikes that targeted Tehran’s military and nuclear infrastructure, broadening a conflict that threatens to engulf the region and roil global markets. Israel said it identified missiles launched from the Islamic Republic and reported explosions from interceptions and falling debris from incoming projectiles. An Israeli official said US forces are helping to intercept the Iranian missiles. The Iranian attack, which Tehran said entailed hundreds of ballistic missiles, is the most forceful step yet by Tehran since Israel’s overnight raids killed top Iranian generals and badly damaged key military infrastructure. While it’s unclear if Israel’s air defenses have been pierced, markets took another hit from the surge in tensions. US stocks fell to new session lows, oil prices extended their gains above 7%, while the US dollar and gold rose.

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . More than 200 bodies have been recovered at the crash site of a London-bound Boeing Co. 787 Dreamliner operated by Air India, in a disaster that has turned 2025 into one of the deadliest years in the past decade for civil aviation. Officials didn’t immediately say how many of the dead were passengers, crew or area residents, but said the toll could rise as emergency workers comb through the wreckage. There was at least one survivor in the crash, India’s federal home minister Amit Shah told reporters in Ahmedabad. Shah, who met with the survivor and visited the crash site, said the official death toll will be announced after DNA verification. Flight AI171 was carrying 242 passengers and crew, most of whom were Indian and British nationals, when it crashed shortly after taking off in the western city of Ahmedabad.

Trump Says China Will Ship Rare Earths in ‘Done’ Trade Deal 38:51

Watch Bloomberg Businessweek Daily LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . President Donald Trump said a trade framework with China has been completed, with Beijing supplying rare earths and magnets “UP FRONT” and the US allowing Chinese students into its colleges and universities. The US and China will maintain tariffs at their current, lower levels following the two nations’ agreement this week in London, Trump said Wednesday. That number is still higher than before the president took office. Trump said Chinese President Xi Jinping and he must still formally sign off on the agreement. “OUR DEAL WITH CHINA IS DONE, SUBJECT TO FINAL APPROVAL WITH PRESIDENT XI AND ME,” Trump posted on social media. “WE ARE GETTING A TOTAL OF 55% TARIFFS, CHINA IS GETTING 10%. RELATIONSHIP IS EXCELLENT!” Yet after months of tense back-and-forth between Washington and Beijing, it remained unclear if the latest round of negotiations brought the two sides closer to an ultimate understanding on trade — or if it just amounted to more talk. “Trump is mentioning the current tariff status, in a misleading way, to show he has the upper hand,” said Neo Wang, lead China macro analyst at Evercore ISI. Trump’s comments prompted fresh questions about the terms of the pact US and Chinese negotiators reached Tuesday. Markets had a mixed reaction on Wednesday to comments from Trump and his team, with US equity indexes fluctuating throughout the day.

US, Mexico Near Deal to Cut Steel Duties and Cap Imports 39:51

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . The US and Mexico are closing in on a deal that would remove President Donald Trump’s 50% tariffs on steel imports up to a certain volume, according to people familiar with the matter, a revamp of a similar deal between the trade partners during his first term. Trump hasn’t been directly involved in the negotiations and would need to sign off on any deal. The talks are being led by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, according to the people, who asked not to be identified as the discussions are private. The people said the agreement hasn’t been finalized. Under its current terms, it would allow US buyers to import Mexican steel duty-free as long as they kept total shipments below a level based on historical trade volumes, according to the people. The new cap would be higher than what was allowed under a similar deal during Trump’s first term, they said, which was never a fixed figure but designed to “prevent surges.” The White House didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum’s office also didn’t respond to a request for comment.

Pentagon Sending 700 Marines to Counter Los Angeles Protests 39:06

Watch Carol and Tim LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF . The Trump administration is sending about 700 active duty Marines to reinforce the National Guard in response to protests in Los Angeles, a person familiar with the matter said, continuing an escalation that California officials have called unwarranted. A Defense Department official said the Marines, based at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in Twentynine Palms, California, were on the move after getting notice over the weekend. CNN reported the plans earlier Monday. Sending active-duty Marines marks an escalation in force from President Donald Trump in response to the protests. California Governor Gavin Newsom had earlier criticized Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for saying Marines could be deployed, calling the threat “deranged behavior.” US law generally bars the use of the active-duty U.S. military — the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines — from carrying out domestic law enforcement. The law doesn’t apply to state-controlled National Guard forces. On Sunday, Trump signed an order directing the US Northern Command to assume control of the National Guard and dispatch at least 2,000 soldiers to the area.
