Later in the show—British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is stepping down after less than two years in office. We'll break down the political collapse that brought down the Labour leader and what his resignation means for the future of British politics.

First—The fragile peace process between the U.S. and Iran has already encountered its first major test.
