PBS News Hour - World - Trump demands Israel end Gaza attack as Hamas responds to his peace proposal

President Trump is demanding that Israel end the war in Gaza. It comes after Hamas announced it had agreed to Trump’s proposal to release all Israeli hostages held in Gaza. But the militant group, which launched the deadly Oct. 7 attacks just short of two years ago, did not agree to all of the president’s framework. Nick Schifrin reports.

The Gist - Jonah Blank: “Very Quickly and Then Very Slowly” in Nepal

South Asia expert Jonah Blank explains how a Gen-Z–driven uprising—fueled by social media, flaunted elite wealth, and ubiquitous VPNs—toppled Nepal’s government. He sketches a country where remittances power daily life, institutions lack public trust, and political parties play musical chairs. Also: Trump fires another U.S. attorney and pressures Microsoft to oust a former DOJ official. And in the Spiel: Hamas’s willingness to release hostages, and how Israel’s democratic self-image shapes the next move.

WSJ What’s News - Senate Democrats Block Spending Bill, Extending Shutdown Into the Weekend

P.M. Edition for Oct. 3. Senate Democrats again rejected a stopgap spending bill. Plus, Hamas responded to Trump’s peace plan, saying it was ready to release the remaining hostages in Gaza, but set conditions. And after pressure from the Justice Department, Apple removed apps from its App Store that allow users to track U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. We hear from Rolfe Winkler, who covers Apple for the Journal, about what that shows about the tech company’s relationship with the White House. Alex Ossola hosts.

The Daily Signal - Victor Davis Hanson: Charlie Kirk Did the Unimaginable. He Turned the Youth Against the Liberal Establishment.

Following Charlie Kirk’s assassination, there have been over 75,000 requests for new Turning Point USA chapters and many conservative commentators have written about his legacy and achievements, but what hasn’t been remarked about enough is, “What was the essence of his appeal to young voters?" asks Victor Davis Hanson on today’s edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” 


The answer?


Charlie Kirk understood that young people, by their very nature, are rebellious. He wanted to take their natural skepticism and point it toward the establishment, which, today, is composed of the corporate media, higher ed, and baby boomers who never got over the 1960s and '70s.


“So what was the secret to his success? I think what he did was quite brilliant. He understood that young people are, by nature, rebellious. They always, as—you're full of energy. They're full of hormones. They're full of ideas. They haven't lived a long time. And they question authority. That's innate to all of us at that age.
“But what he was trying to tell them was: Use that natural inquisitiveness, skepticism, maybe even rebelliousness, at the establishment. But you're mistaken. The establishment is not conservative.
“The establishment, as defined by the network news, PBS, NPR; as defined by higher education, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Berkeley, Stanford; as defined by the corporate boardroom at Budweiser or Target, or Disney; as defined by the popular culture, if you look—I could just direct you to the halftime show at the typical Super Bowl extravaganza. We could go on, but you get the message.”
