She wanted a piece on the senator grappling with the unimaginable. So I headed straight to the airport, arriving in Charleston with just my backpack and what l'd be wearing to work that day, and linked up with Graham.

Public Safety Alert This is a test of the South Pasadena WEA system. There is no emergency.
There are some genuinely good developments here: Israel released 1,700 Palestinian hostages [This phrase underlined] and 250 prisoners in exchange for the last 20 surviving Israeli hostages. The massive bombing has stopped. Many Israelis and Palestinians believe this ceasefire might actually hold, unlike the last two that Israel broke.
