Trump said Tuesday the U.S. knows where Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is hiding but won't kill him "for now," while urging Iran's "unconditional surrender" as the five-day conflict continues. Israel said it killed Ali Shadmani, Iran's wartime chief of staff and most senior military commander, as part of an ongoing offensive that has reportedly killed more than 20 Iranian senior military officers since Friday. Aerial footage showed massive traffic jams as thousands of Iranians fled the capital after five days of Israeli airstrikes. See it here. | NYC Comptroller Arrested by ICE New York City Comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander was arrested Tuesday by ICE agents outside a Manhattan immigration court after trying to block the detention of a man leaving immigration court. Lander refused to release the man to ICE officers without a judicial warrant, leading to a scuffle that was caught on video. See the footage here. He was held for several hours but released after charges of assaulting and obstructing federal officers were dropped. | Streaming Surpasses Traditional TV For the first time in TV history, streaming platforms have overtaken cable and broadcast combined in U.S. TV viewership, grabbing 44.8% of all screen time in May, according to Nielsen. The combination of broadcast, with 20.1%, and all cable channels, with 24.1%, represented 44.2% of TV viewing, according to Nielsen. Other TV uses, including video games and DVD viewing, made up the small remainder. YouTube and Netflix alone made up nearly 20% of total U.S. viewing. Free ad-supported services like Tubi, Roku Channel, and Pluto TV also played a key role in the surge. Love reading The Flyover?
