On The A.M. Update, Aaron McIntire covers a volatile weekend. Israel's “Rising Lion” operation escalates into a third day of war with Iran, with Tel Aviv enduring hypersonic missile barrages and Israel striking Tehran's nuclear sites, military bases, and oil facilities, killing key figures like the IRGC's intelligence chief. Netanyahu tells Fox News Israel aims to prevent Iran from arming proxies like the Houthis with nuclear weapons, while Trump, on Truth Social, denies U.S. involvement but warns Iran of severe consequences if attacked, urging a peace deal. McIntire sees Israel's goal as regime change, noting Netanyahu's calls to Iranians to rise up.

The suspect, Vance Bolter, a bizarre figure with a varied past, allegedly impersonated a police officer. The “No Kings” protests, expected to spark riots, remain peaceful but draw “geriatric” crowds, with Randi Weingarten's flailing speech and a fear-mongering grandma highlighting media-driven hysteria. A Los Angeles chopper reporter's drunken rant about his divorce during a protest broadcast epitomizes California chaos. Senate Majority Leader John Thune endorses the “Big Beautiful Bill,” promising historic spending cuts.
