Today’s Headlines: In Amsterdam, mobs attacked Israelis after a soccer match, injuring dozens in what officials are calling a premeditated assault. Over 60 people were arrested, and Israel sent rescue planes to bring citizens home as the city banned protests and advised caution amid anti-Israel sentiment. In the U.S., Black Americans in at least 15 states received shocking anonymous texts instructing them to "pick cotton" and report to a “plantation.” The FBI and state officials are investigating, with some messages traced to a VPN in Poland. On Ukraine, Trump advisors proposed freezing the war with Russia keeping 20% of Ukrainian territory. Trump spoke separately with both Putin and Zelensky, signaling interest in de-escalating the conflict. Meanwhile, the DOJ unsealed charges against an Iranian agent plotting to assassinate Trump. Lastly, wildfires have spread beyond California to New York and New Jersey, with one fatality and poor air quality warnings in the area as California residents face new evacuations.
