  Aug 17, 202623 min

  Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and special envoy Jared Kushner agreed that the Gaza Strip’s “demilitarization” should start with Hamas handing over weapons under the supervision of an American military general, according to a senior Israeli official familiar with their hourslong meeting Monday.

  Mangione Admits to Killing Brian Thompson; How Afghan Women Are Bypassing Taliban Restrictions

  Aug 14, 202627 min

  Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty today to federal stalking charges in the case surrounding the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. He said in court that he “shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan in his back.” NBC News legal analyst Misty Marris explains how Mangione’s plea kicks off a double jeopardy fight in New York state court, where he still faces murder charges. Plus, when the Taliban reasserted control of Afghanistan after the U.S. pulled out in 2021, it promised to allow more freedoms for women. Five years on, that hasn’t borne out. Host Yasmin Vossoughian interviews Sara Wahedi, an Afghan-Canadian entrepreneur whose startup covertly connects women inside the country to critical services like healthcare and education they’d otherwise be unable to access. Then, will American interest in soccer keep going after the World Cup? Rebecca Lowe, host of NBC Sports’ Premier League, previews the upcoming English Premier League season and explains why this could be a turning point for American fandom.

  Luigi Mangione to Plead Guilty in N.Y. Federal Case; How Crypto Is Influencing the Midterms

  Aug 13, 202622 min

  Luigi Mangione is expected to plead guilty Friday in the federal case in connection with the 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, according to sources familiar with the matter. It is unclear if Mangione will plead guilty to one or both of the two stalking-related charges in his federal case, but the expected plea comes less than a month before his New York state murder trial is set to begin. NBC News Legal Analyst Misty Marris analyzes what may have motivated Mangione’s lawyers to change his plea. Plus, in the 2026 midterms, three cryptocurrency-aligned super PACs have spent tens of millions of dollars to support both Democrats and Republicans. At least two of them list the same Minnesota address as their headquarters. OpenSecrets Senior Reporter Joedy McCreary breaks down how these PACs are working together to support candidates who would help formalize the role crypto plays in our financial system. Lastly, the dating app Bumble is breaking up with its entire premise. It said this week that it’ll allow men to message first. NBC News Internet and Trending Reporter Angela Yang explains how flagging dating app economics may have prompted the move. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
