1 Trump Says He'll Decide On Iran Attack In Two Weeks

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt delivered a message from President Trump during yesterday’s press briefing, saying there’s still a “substantial” chance of negotiating with Iran, and that he would make a decision on any potential attack by the US within the next two weeks. President Trump approved attack plans for Iran on Tuesday night, but hasn't made a final decision to strike. He's thinking about attacking Fordo, a nuclear site built deep inside a mountain that makes uranium. Trump says he wants to decide at the last second because things change fast in war. The Fordo site is buried almost 300 feet underground and has strong defenses. Only the U.S. has the right bombs and planes to destroy it. Israel has been hitting other Iranian nuclear sites since Friday, but hasn't touched Fordo yet. Iran says it’s getting ready to hit back at U.S. bases in the Middle East if America joins Israel's attacks. The U.S. has helped Israel stop Iranian missiles but says it's not joining the offensive strikes yet.

3 LA Dodgers Say They Blocked ICE From Entering Their Stadium

Dozens of masked federal agents in SUVs and vans appeared Thursday outside Gate E at Dodger Stadium, drawing protesters who oppose ongoing immigration raids in Los Angeles. Team officials said the agents asked to enter but were denied and told to leave the private lot. ICE later denied being on site; Homeland Security said the group was Customs and Border Protection on an unrelated task and stayed only briefly. The incident comes amid nightly demonstrations and after the city deployed thousands of National Guard troops at federal request. The Dodgers postponed a planned statement on the raids but let the evening game proceed.
