Florida State University Shooting: A horrific shooting at FSU's Student Union left at least two dead and five injured, with suspect Phoenix Ikner, a 20-year-old son of a sheriff's deputy, in custody. Using a former service weapon, Ikner unleashed chaos, prompting evacuations and leaving students shaken. We'll explore the details, the community's response, and what this tragedy reveals about campus safety and gun violence in America.

* Giorgia Meloni's Call for a U.S.-Italy Alliance: Italian PM Giorgia Meloni dropped a bombshell, urging President Trump to forge a historic U.S.-Italy alliance to "Make the West Great Again." Framing the West as a civilization worth saving, she invited Trump to Rome to mend U.S.-Europe ties. Despite tariff tensions, Meloni's bold vision is a rallying cry for Western unity. We'll analyze her speech, Trump's cheeky response, and what this means for global politics.

With racial tensions, death threats, and dueling fundraisers ($430,000 for Anthony, $300,000 for Metcalf), this case is tearing Texas apart. We'll unpack the drama, the self-defense claims, and the social media firestorm.

* Trump on Israel-Iran Tensions: When asked about waving off an Israeli strike on Iran, Trump played it cool, saying he'd prefer Iran to "live happily without death" through diplomacy.
