    A look at the fraught ceasefire negotiations currently unfolding between Israel and Hamas, particularly how Hamas is approaching these discussions as reports emerge that the group’s leader in Gaza is in no rush to end the war.

    FBI Director Christopher Wray is sounding the alarm on the heightened threat of coordinated domestic terror attacks similar to the ISIS attack on a Russian concert hall in March that left more than 140 people dead.

    In our 'Back of the Brief' segment, we’ll look at an exclusive report suggesting that behind closed doors, President Joe Biden’s cognitive health is seriously slipping.

    In today’s Back of the Brief, we’ll revisit the dangers posed by Artificial Intelligence. Insiders from one of the world’s leading AI firms warn that the company’s secrecy and recklessness could potentially lead to human extinction.
