Trump in ‘deciding mode’ on Iran; Austin ICE shooting sparks protests

President Trump says he's in deciding mode on Iran. What he

says could happen next as Tehran lays out its terms for talks. Plus an ICE officer shoots a man in Austin protests

follow and city leaders want answers about the investigation and Trump and mom Donnie face to face again

This time the mayor is hosting at Gracie mansion. The stories that matter, the facts you can trust from across the

country to around the world. This is unbiased updates from straight arrow. Hey everybody

I'm Christian Bryant. Hope you had a great weekend. Let's get right into it

President Trump says he's in deciding mode on Iran with some of his strongest language yet

about where this war could go next. Trump told Fox News Sunday that very big things could happen

in the near future. Then asked quote, if and when do I blow the entire nation up CBS reports

Trump also described other possibilities under consideration, including reaching a deal. Those comments come as Iran's president and foreign minister prepared to come to New York

for the UN General Assembly. The Trump administration approved visas for both despite the ongoing war

There are also new signs of diplomatic movement. An Iranian official says Qatar and Pakistan have

relayed Tehran's conditions to the U.S. for returning to negotiations. Those include an

end to the war, the release of frozen Iranian funds, and an end to the U.S. naval blockade

The U.S. has not confirmed that new negotiations are underway, and the Strait of Hormuz remains closed

Iran says it will not reopen the key shipping route until its conditions are met

An ICE officer shot and seriously wounded a man in Austin, Texas

And overnight, police used tear gas and pepper spray to break up protests that followed

declared an unlawful assembly near the scene, then moved in on demonstrators using pepper

balls and making several arrests. The man who was shot has been identified by an immigration

attorney as 28-year-old Wilbur Rafael Garces Perez, a Venezuelan DoorDash driver. DHS says

Garces Perez entered the country illegally during the Biden administration and had a final order of

removal His attorney says he entered through a parole program and was seeking asylum Austin police chief says the shooting happened during a foot pursuit but cautioned that information is still preliminary

It's unclear whether Garces Perez was the target. He was shot in the torso and taken to a hospital in serious but stable condition

DHS says he is now in federal custody pending removal. Austin Mayor Kirk Watson wants city police and the Texas Rangers involved in the investigation

Austinites also because they have a right to feel safe in their city

And when you have a shooting on their streets, it makes people feel less safe

And ICE, with the fear that it's created, is on their streets

And by just being on their streets, it creates some fear in our city

And if there's nothing to fear from this being done the way it was done

if there's nothing wrong with that, they should welcome an investigation. Right now, DHS and the FBI are leading that investigation. ABC reports Austin police were

not allowed to conduct their own crime scene investigation. A city council member says he's

working with city officials to keep the ICE officer who fired the shots from leaving Texas

President Trump is heading to Gracie Mansion later today for a meeting with New York City

Mayor Zoran Mamdani. And if that sounds like an unlikely invitation, remember these two have

gotten along a lot better in private than their politics might suggest. This will be their third

face-to-face meeting, but their first in New York. The first was at the White House last November

just after Mamdani was elected. They met again in February when Mamdani pitched Trump on a massive

housing project in Queens. Mamdani says the two have stayed in touch since then. The mayor's office

isn't saying much about what's on the agenda today, only that they'll discuss issues affecting

New Yorkers. Immigration could come up. Just last week, Mamdani announced a lawsuit challenging the

Trump administration's expansion of its public charge rule, which can make it harder for some

immigrants to get green cards. And then there's where they're meeting. Presidential visits to

Gracie Manchin are pretty rare. Harry Truman was there in 1949. John F. Kennedy visited in 1962

to speak to a gathering of U.S. mayors. And Ronald Reagan went in 1981 presenting Mayor Ed Koch

with a giant prop check for a Manhattan infrastructure project Trump will be in New York for the U General Assembly and is scheduled to address it tomorrow The U wants a new warning system with China for when something goes wrong

with AI and rises to the level of a national security threat. The idea came up during talks

in New York between top U.S. and Chinese officials ahead of President Xi Jinping's visit to Washington

this week. Treasury Secretary Scott Besson says the U.S. is proposing what he calls a

notification mechanism so the world's two biggest AI powers can alert each other to serious incidents

Well, the notification for whether they're incidents, whether there has been something that rises up to

a national security level from from AI, because we think that just just like when any cross border

activity that moving from opaque to more transparency between the number one and the number two

AI powers in the world, very important. The two sides agreed to keep the AI conversation going

Chinese state media confirmed AI was discussed, but did not mention the U.S. proposal. They also

agreed to get a new board of trade up and running. U.S. Trade Representative Jamison Greer says

they're discussing lower tariffs on some non-sensitive goods, potentially including Chinese consumer products and U.S. energy, agricultural goods, and medical devices

President Trump's 250-foot arch near Arlington National Cemetery is getting a new purpose

Trump now says it will also be a military complex with drones, snipers, and ammunition

Trump announced the change Sunday saying it came at the, quote, strongest request of the U.S

military and was needed for national security. He says the arch would store large numbers of

drones with the ability to deploy them quickly. Snipers would be positioned on the roof and plaza

areas with sniper ammunition stored inside. Trump has been talking about this arch for months

The plan calls for a 250-foot structure near the Arlington Memorial Bridge, across the Potomac from

the Lincoln Memorial, and close to the Arlington National Cemetery. The arch has already faced

legal challenges, a federal judge this month ordered the administration to give 48 hours

notice before doing any work at the site The FAA cleared the 250 structure Friday finding it would not pose a hazard to flights at nearby Reagan National Airport One military expert told Reuters he questions why the new

facility would be needed, pointing out that Fort Myers is about a mile away and the Pentagon about

two miles away. The Pentagon hasn't offered any details beyond Trump's post

And finally this morning, astronomers have found the fastest known star in the Milky Way

and this thing is moving. It's called S301 and it's orbiting the supermassive black hole at the

center of our galaxy. At its fastest, the star is moving about 15,000 miles a second, more than 8

of the speed of light. And it gets extremely close to that black hole, about 10 times closer

than the star scientists have previously used to study it. That gives astronomers a chance to

measure gravity there more precisely. Our measurements will be better because we come

closer to the black hole. We get closer to the object of interest. And so if we feel better

the forces of the black hole, we more precisely can see the gravitational effects. And this is

why this star is so, so wonderful. Scientists say S301 could now help them do something they've

been trying to do for years, measure how fast that black hole is spinning. And they think they

could have that answer within the next decade. Before we head out, here's what we're tracking

today. At 9 a.m., Secretary of State Marco Rubio visits the New York Stock Exchange

and rings the opening bell. At noon, the U.N. holds its daily press briefings as world leaders

arrive in New York ahead of the General Assembly's high-level debate, which begins Tuesday

At 12.30, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is expected to mark the launch of the FAA's

new smart system using AI to predict air traffic flow and spot potential conflicts before they

happen. And at 7.30 tonight, Senator Bernie Sanders is expected to deliver what his office

is calling a major foreign policy address in New York City. Folks, we are the fastest
