• French officials blast Iran’s IRGC for a brazen cyber-assault that hijacks supermarket freezers, cranks temperatures past 50°C, spoils tons of food, and sparks fires across roughly 700 stores. Paris summons Tehran’s ambassador and vows European sanctions.
Today we also discuss:
• Republican Rep. Thomas Massie forces a House vote by filing eight impeachment articles against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The charges accuse him of abusing power and waging an unauthorized war in Iran plus other illegal military actions.
• California voters reject Proposition 40, a one-time 5% wealth tax on billionaires’ assets that would have funded health care. The measure splits Democrats, faces opposition from Gov. Newsom, and collapses under heavy advertising by targeted billionaires.
• A Saudi court sentences Kenyan domestic worker Esther Wanja Muthoni to 100 lashes and a year of banishment for giving birth outside marriage. The mother of a one-year-old faces the penalty under the kingdom’s interpretation of Islamic law.
