Ground operation expands, Liz Cheney’s warning, Harvard-Zuckerberg allegation

The Israel-Hamas war threatens to spread to a wider conflict as the IDF expands its ground assault to the entire Gaza Strip, Israel takes mortar fire from Hezbollah, and a US Navy Destroyer rescues three commercial ships in the Red Sea that were attacked by Iran-backed Houthi rebels. Plus, former US Rep. Liz Cheney warns America is in danger of “sleepwalking into a dictatorship” if Trump wins in 2024. And, a disinformation scholar alleges Harvard pushed her out to protect its funding relationship with Mark Zuckerberg. Also this morning: a man reveals a 50-year-old bank robbery secret to his daughter on this death bed, and the New York Times reports that some air traffic controllers are drinking and sleeping on the job.
