Conflict reporter/writer/cartoonist Ted Rall and political analyst Jamarl Thomas deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.

Today we discuss:

• The Lake Lucerne Summit makes progress toward peace between the US & Iran, Israel & Hezbollah/Lebanon. JD Vance says the US wants to “turn over a new leaf” in the Mideast. Is the war really ending? Will Israel provoke the US? Could there be a US-Israeli rupture?

• Prime Minister Keir Starmer resigns as leader of the governing Labour Party. Andy Burnham, the party’s most popular politician, is poised to replace Starmer.

• Western Europe begins a ferocious heatwave breaking records well over 100F/37C, with half of France on red alert, rail services in Belgium disrupted and sports events in Spain and Germany scrapped.
