We'll unpack the prosecution's case, Hearn's defense, and why his attorneys say the government's handling of the evidence could derail the entire prosecution. Then we turn to the escalating conflict with Iran, where new reports indicate that nearly 100 U.S. service members have been injured in just the last 12 days, underscoring the growing human cost of the war. We'll discuss what these casualty figures mean, how the conflict continues to intensify, and what could come next as tensions remain high.
