Plus: Farage torches the establishment, Le Pen's court showdown, and a Colorado reparations shocker, all in today's episode.

The ceasefire didn't even survive the summer. US Central Command says American forces launched a wave of powerful strikes on more than 80 targets across Iran after Tehran hit three ships in the Strait of Hormuz, and President Trump gave the order while standing at a NATO summit stage in Turkey. Within hours, Iran answered back. What happened next is the part the morning shows are racing past, and it may matter more than the strike itself.

But that is only where today begins. Across the Atlantic, Nigel Farage just did something almost no politician has the nerve to do: he resigned his own seat to force a "people versus the establishment" showdown, and dared his critics to beat him in the open. In France, a court thought it had finally caged Marine Le Pen, and her answer left her enemies stunned. And in the bluest corner of Colorado, a 29-year-old newcomer who just ended a 15-term career says America cannot heal without one thing, and you need to hear her say it in her own words. There is also a Senate leader whose condition has Washington whispering, a West Coast city whose safety net is buckling, and a Hollywood story that took a turn nobody expected. Six stories. One place to get the truth before 7 AM.
