Good Morning! On this day in 1789, John Adams became the first Vice President of the United States, serving under President George Washington. Eight years later, he became the second president of the United States from March 4, 1797, to March 4, 1801.

A bombshell new study just dropped on some of the biggest news platforms on the planet, and the findings are raising serious questions about what you're actually being shown, and what's quietly being hidden from you. We're talking about the world's largest news aggregators, and the data is striking. Right? Left? Conservative? Liberal? On today's episode of The Flyover Podcast, host Ayla Brown breaks down exactly what this report found, which platforms it calls out by name, and what it means for every American who thinks they're getting the full picture. Plus, where does The Flyover rank? We'll share that too. And we think you'll like the answer. Tune in. You're going to want to hear this one.

Later today, watch for a quick note from our partner, Fisher Investments, with a free guide on one of retirement’s biggest questions: when the time is right to step away from work.

Today’s sponsor, NativePath, is spotlighting a science-backed approach to bone health that goes beyond calcium, featuring a unique protein shown to significantly boost bone density in just months.

Iran Ceasefire Set to Expire Today

President Trump on Monday said the ceasefire with Iran is "highly unlikely" to be extended, warning that if it expires Tuesday evening, "then lots of bombs start going off." The two-week truce has held since April 7, but tensions have escalated sharply in recent days.

The U.S. Navy on Sunday fired on and seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship, the Touska, in the Gulf of Oman after the vessel ignored six hours of warnings. Watch a video here. Iran's military called the seizure "armed piracy" and vowed retaliation, saying Washington violated the ceasefire.

A U.S. delegation led by Vice President JD Vance, envoy Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner was heading to Islamabad on Monday for another round of talks, but Iran's foreign ministry said it has no plans to negotiate, accusing the U.S. of lacking seriousness.

Trump told reporters the administration's demand is simple: "No nuclear weapons. Very simple. Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon." No tankers passed through the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday.

Most Common US Surnames Little Changed in Two Centuries

America’s 15 most common last names continue to be dominated by surnames such as Smith and Johnson, though they've been joined this century by six predominantly Hispanic last names: Garcia, Gonzalez, Hernandez, Lopez, Martinez, and Rodriguez.

Eight English and Welsh-origin surnames—Smith, Johnson, Williams, Brown, Jones, Miller, Davis, and Wilson—have held top-15 spots continuously since the first census in 1790, despite an 84-fold increase in population.

The release also included first-name data for the first time since 1990. The five most common first names, Michael, John, James, David, and Robert, were all traditionally male because men share popular names at roughly twice the rate women do.

Red Lobster's 'Endless Shrimp' Returns Despite Bankruptcy

Red Lobster on Monday brought back its Endless Shrimp promotion for the first time since the all-you-can-eat shrimp deal helped push the seafood chain into bankruptcy in 2024.

The promotional offer, priced at $25, returns with five dishes, including a new "Marry Me Shrimp" in tomato cream sauce.

The all-you-can-eat promotion previously cost Red Lobster $11 million in operational losses in just over three months in 2023, contributing to the company's $76 million net loss and eventual Chapter 11 filing that shuttered 130 restaurants.

CEO Damola Adamolekun had initially ruled out bringing it back, joking last year that he knew "how to do math." But he said the company listened to persistent customer demand and restructured the limited-time, dine-in-only offer to work within the business today.

The WORST Fix For Bone Loss

Did your family doc ever tell you calcium is good for your bones? Ours too.

Turns out… Calcium could do more harm than good.

In one of the largest bone health studies ever, women who took calcium and vitamin D every day did not see a difference in bone health risks.

Meanwhile, a recent study found that women who took a particular protein for 6 months gained 7% more bone density… Which is how much density the average person loses in SIX YEARS!
