Episode Details

President Donald Trump made headlines at the United Nations General Assembly by floating a major decision on whether to negotiate a deal with Iran or take aggressive action, while also signing a deal regarding Greenland and declaring that artificial intelligence should be renamed super intelligence in all United States documents. Meanwhile, the Trump administration faces a legal challenge from MSNBC, CNN, and Politico after banning them from the White House, a move that prompted television networks to pull out of the press pool in solidarity. Legal analyst Scott Jennings noted the decision is unlikely to prevail in court and reduces the administration's message reach. In international news, British citizen Joshua Foster pleaded guilty in a Paphos court to causing the death of his two-year-old son by a reckless act after the child fell from a hotel window in Cyprus. Additionally, democracy advocates are calling on Trump to fulfill his promise to free imprisoned media mogul Jimmy Lai during the upcoming visit of Chinese President Xi Jinping to Washington.
