5:15Now PlayingDave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” gives a first look at the stories you need to know to start your day, including President Donald Trump opting to fly home from the NATO Summit aboard the current Air Force One instead of the new Qatari-donated aircraft amid ongoing threats from Iran following U.S. airstrikes, raising questions about presidential security and military readiness; and Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner facing mounting pressure to withdraw after a rape allegation from former girlfriend Jenny Racicot, as Zohran Mamdani’s fixer, Morris Katz, attempts to leverage Platner’s resignation to persuade Democrats to select a progressive candidate for the Maine Senate race against Susan Collins.
