Today, it’s TACO Tuesday as Trump announces an indefinite ceasefire in Iran hours ahead of the expiration of the last two week ceasefire; Democratic Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick resigned from Congress just minutes before a hearing on whether she should be expelled; the Southern Poverty Law Center says it’s under criminal investigation by Trump’s Justice Department; Donald’s approval rating hits an all time low (again); the EU’s top court found that Hungary’s anti LGBTQ+ law is discriminatory and contrary to the identity of the union; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
