Journalist Jeremy Scahill says the Trump administration's vision for the Gaza Strip is of a continued "colonial apartheid regime" with Israel and U.S. interests controlling the lives of millions of Palestinians in perpetuity. "Palestinians are being told that they must completely surrender," says Scahill. President Trump chaired the first meeting of his so-called Board of Peace this week, a body established for Gaza but whose remit has already expanded.

Despite chairing the first meeting of his newly formed Board of Peace on Thursday, President Donald Trump continues to threaten war against Iran as the Pentagon positions a massive fighting force in the Middle East. Trump said he would give Tehran about two weeks to reach a deal on its nuclear program, but media reports indicate that he could launch an attack within days. Iran maintains its nuclear enrichment program is for peaceful civilian purposes.
Journalist Jeremy Scahill says Trump already "used the veneer" of negotiations to attack Iran last year, and that despite ongoing talks between the two countries, he has essentially already decided to launch a new war that could quickly spiral out of control.
"I've been told by military experts who spent decades working in the Pentagon that there's a spirit of delusion that has just taken hold in the administration," says Scahill. "You have elements here who are absolutely obsessed with Iran and destroying the Islamic Revolution."

We continue our conversation with attorney Laura Marquez-Garrett and victim advocates Lori Schott and Lennon Torres about their fight to hold tech giants accountable for the damaging and even deadly effects of social media addiction on children and young adults. We're also joined by Frances Haugen, a former Facebook employee who blew the whistle on several of the company's harmful and manipulative practices in 2021. Haugen says mega-rich tech "oligarchs" like Mark Zuckerberg cared about teenagers only as people who could bring others onto the platform. "They worried about public perception, not the actual health of the kids," says Haugen, adding that companies like Zuckerberg's Facebook "under-invested in the safety of children," ignoring years of warnings about the psychological impacts of their products on child development in favor of "optimiz[ing] for spending more and more time on these platforms."

U.K. police have arrested the former Prince Andrew, the brother of King Charles, on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was previously sued in 2021 by Epstein survivor Virginia Giuffre, who accused him of multiple instances of sexual assault when she was underage. The lawsuit was settled out of court shortly after it was filed, but Mountbatten-Windsor was allowed to keep his royal title and privileges at the time. Those were recently stripped following revelations about the extent of his friendship with the American serial sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Their friendship has been widely known to the public since at least 2008, when Epstein was first convicted for soliciting a minor for sex.
British authorities are now reportedly investigating whether Mountbatten-Windsor shared confidential government information with Epstein in 2010 while serving as a U.K. trade representative. "This is a story about sex trafficking, about the abuse of numerous women, and it seems like where justice might be brought, it's on a different charge, which is sharing confidential information with a powerful person," says Novara Media's Michael Walker.

Meta — the parent company of social media platforms Facebook and Instagram — and Google are on trial in Los Angeles following a lawsuit accusing them of fueling and profiting from addictive behaviors aimed at children and young adults. We speak to three people attending the landmark trial, including TIME "100 Most Influential People in Health" honoree Laura Marquez-Garret, an attorney at the Seattle-based Social Media Victims Law Center who has filed more than 1,200 complaints against tech companies throughout the country. Their work is part of a nationwide fight on behalf of victims and families, including two of our guests, parent advocate Lori Schott and Lennon Torres, a former child performer who now works to hold tech companies accountable for facilitating online child sexual abuse.
Schott's daughter Analee was just 18 years old when she died by suicide in 2020, following a struggle with depression and body dysmorphia that Schott says was aggravated by "predatory tech." Schott and Torres say Meta knew about the dangers of products like face augmentation filters and easily bypassed age verification, yet did nothing to improve its systems. "I was receiving hundreds of messages from grown adult men trying to groom me online because they understood I was vulnerable," says Torres, now 26. "The social media platforms could easily stop strangers from being able to contact kids … [but] when I look at big tech leadership, I just see lazy. I see lack of innovation. I see a lack of accountability."

Tributes are pouring in from across the globe for Reverend Jesse Jackson, who died on Tuesday. The civil rights icon and two-time presidential candidate was 84 years old. Democracy Now!'s Juan González recounts his experience as a reporter visiting Cuba and Puerto Rico alongside Jackson. "Jesse was always there when people were fighting for some form of social justice," says González. "Of all the U.S. leaders of the past half-century, I believe none had a more international view and a commitment to worldwide social justice as Jesse Jackson did."
Bishop William Barber, president and senior lecturer of Repairers of the Breach, met Jackson 40 years ago as a student when he asked to work with Jackson's student campaign during his 1984 presidential run. Jackson "was somebody that was serious about people uniting to save humanity — PUSHing — that he was serious about an agenda of uplift," says Barber.

Lawmakers on Capitol Hill are accusing the Justice Department of covering up the names of co-conspirators of the deceased sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as fallout from the Epstein files grows across the globe. Millions of pages remain unreleased. As many prominent U.S. figures evade accountability following mentions in the Epstein files, a number of European figures have resigned for their relationships with Epstein. "The most extraordinary and worrying thing of what is going on in the United States is the scale of normalization that is happening, in which the press is absolutely a structural part of this," says Carole Cadwalladr, award-winning investigative journalist. "I have been shocked — deeply, deeply shocked — by the absence of headlines."

HBOHaving just survived the brutality of Hurricane Milton, the Sunshine State now gets battered—this time with good-natured blows—by It's Florida, Man, a six-part HBO comedy that highlights the types of weird and wild stories that first gave birth to the "Florida Man" meme.
Produced by The Righteous Gemstones' Danny McBride and featuring a cast of comedians in absurd vignettes about crime, deviance, and general insanity, it's a crazy companion piece to Drunk History, employing non-fiction interviews and over-the-top recreations to recount some of most moronic chapters in America's recent past.
