Israel is continuing to carry out attacks on Lebanon amid ongoing talks between the U.S. and Iran to end the war. Iran is maintaining its demand that Lebanon be included in a ceasefire deal. Lylla Younes, an investigative journalist based in Beirut, says President Trump's claims that he wants peace with Iran are "absurd" because the United States continues to support "Israel's aggression in southern Lebanon." She argues that "an angry phone call between Netanyahu and Donald Trump is ultimately meaningless" as long as Israel is granted "impunity and arms." Younes also talks about reporting she did for Drop Site News on the ethnic cleansing in Ain Arab, a village in southern Lebanon.

Peru's presidential runoff is too close to call as ballots continue to be counted from Sunday's election between Keiko Fujimori, daughter of former dictator Alberto Fujimori, and leftist lawmaker Roberto Sánchez. Peruvian election officials say final results could take up to a month to confirm.
Peruvian economist and public policy expert Gustavo Guerra-García Picasso says "democracy has been undermined" by Fujimori and her right-wing coalition, and that "reforms must be implemented quickly to restore a presidential system with checks and balances."
We also speak with historian Greg Grandin, who situates the Peru election in a wider battle between right and left across Latin America — with the Trump administration conducting "an unprecedented program of aggression" against leftists.

Calls are growing for the interim U.S. attorney in Chicago, Andrew Boutros, to resign over his handling of the "Broadview 6" case — six individuals charged with federal crimes for protesting outside Chicago's Broadview ICE jail in September. The remaining charges against four of the Broadview 6 were recently dismissed after the case collapsed in court due to widespread prosecutorial misconduct. "This DOJ has completely corrupted the grand jury process," says attorney Chris Parente, who represented one of the Broadview 6. "When they decide that they want to get a political indictment through, they will do whatever it takes, even acting in an unethical way."
Parente, himself a former federal prosecutor, says federal prosecutors heavily misrepresented the case and forced an indictment despite the grand jury initially voting against it. What's "even worse," he adds, is the U.S. attorney's subsequent cover-up of the prosecutors' conduct, refusing to release the grand jury transcripts for months and later redacting and withholding full pages from the judge who ordered their release. "As a former federal prosecutor, your job is not to win any case. It's to do the right thing. And I've never seen a case like this, where from the jump they did the wrong thing at every single turn."
