Iran said it rejected a US ceasefire proposal and maintained attacks on Israel and Gulf Arab states, delivering a blow to Washington’s efforts to end a war the Trump administration started alongside Israel almost a month ago. America’s 15-point peace plan stipulates that the Islamic Republic dismantle its main nuclear facilities and use a reduced missile arsenal in self-defense only, according to several people familiar with the matter. Iran would get certain concessions in return, including sanctions relief. But Tehran has its own conditions for a ceasefire . Iran wants guarantees that the US and Israel won’t resume their attacks, alongside reparations for war damages and recognition of its authority over the Strait of Hormuz, it said. The White House insisted that peace talks with Iran are ongoing, even as Tehran publicly rejected US overtures. Vice President JD Vance may travel to Pakistan for Iran talks this weekend, CNN reported. Trump has said he hopes to reach an agreement by the end of the week. — Jordan Parker Erb What You Need to Know Today Meta and Google were found liable and must pay damages to a 20-year-old woman who alleged that her addiction to the companies’ social media platforms caused her to suffer a mental health crisis, a jury said.

Report Alleges Trump's Daily Military Briefing Scrubs Out Iran War Setbacks A fresh NBC report has alleged that President Trump is being presented with a very incomplete picture of how the Iran war is going , with the conflict now approaching its first month, and as Washington struggles to find an offramp amid global oil market disruptions. The report says that his daily military briefing provided by the Pentagon features a roughly 2-minute long video update for President Trump that shows the biggest , most successful strikes on Iranian targets of the prior 48 hours. Negative developments frequently get omitted or glossed over. via Associated Press Anonymous US officials have voiced fears that the video briefings, which the president tends to respond positively to, fail to represent the full scope of what's going on. Also, Trump's aides have reportedly voiced greater approval for the briefings, which feature Iranian military equipment and bases and sites getting blown up. The NBC report, which has been rejected by White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt , in essence suggests Trump is not getting properly briefed on major negative developments . Or in other words, the fear is that briefers are simply favoring information that he wants to hear, and too afraid to deliver bad news. According to NBC : They said the videos are also driving Trump’s increasing frustration with news coverage of the war . Trump has pointed to the success depicted in the daily videos to privately question why his administration can’t better influence the public narrative, asking aides why the news media doesn’t emphasize what he’s seeing, one of the current U.S. officials and the former U.S. official said. Again, Leavitt has called all of this "an absolutely false assertion" from people who aren't in the briefing room; however NBC does offer the following example which seems consistent with its reporting : One example came this month when five U.S. Air Force refueling planes were hit in a...

jetcityimage/iStock Editorial via Getty Images Shares of Lennar ( LEN ) have been a poor performer over the past year, losing about 20% of their value. The housing market has remained persistently sluggish, and the company’s margins have suffered as it has maintained overly aggressive delivery targets, in my view. The recent rise in interest rates has also further dampened hopes of a potential spring recovery in sales. I last covered Lennar in December , downgrading shares to a “ S ell,” and that call has played out with the stock losing 27% since then. Given such underperformance and with updated financials, now is a good time to revisit Lennar. Seeking Alpha Macro environment remains difficult Over the past year, mortgage rates had steadily declined as long-term yields settled down and markets priced in several rate cuts. As we entered 2026, there was hope we could see rates sustainably below 6%, a key level that could bring more demand into the market. The decline from ~7% to 6.25% admittedly did little to strengthen the market given just how unaffordable housing became—about 79% above pre-COVID levels . That said, a drop below 6%, in my view, would bring in some incremental buyers and at least stabilize pricing in Sun Belt markets. St. Louis Federal Reserve More recently, we have seen rates tick back up, approaching 6.3%, as long-term yields have risen in response to the Iran War. We likely need to see the 10-year T reasury consistently below 4% for mortgage rates to stay below 6%. With increased inflation and issuance needs, that appears less likely, and I now expect no more than one Fed rate cut this year. This rise in rates comes just as we are entering the key spring selling season, further undermining hopes for a recovery. I expect transaction volumes to be flattish this year, and I continue to see national prices declining 0%-3% with bigger declines in Sun Belt markets that have more supply. Weak margins drive a soft Q1 These macro challenges are apparent ...

That’s why it’s worth considering a portable inflator like the Fanttik X9 Pro.

This sale price is the best we’ve seen since July. Fanttik X9 Pro Portable Tire Inflator Where to Buy: $79.97 $59.98 at Amazon (with on-page coupon) $79.97 $59.98 at Fanttik (with code X9PRO1) $79.99 at Best Buy Fanttik’s portable pump can inflate a compact car tire from 30 to 35 PSI in about a minute, and with a maximum pressure of 150 PSI, it works with everything from SUVs and bikes to sports balls.

The built-in display shows your tire’s pressure in real time, your selected target level, and remaining battery life, so you can easily track progress on the most important metrics. It also automatically shuts off when it’s done, so there’s no need to keep checking it. Weighing in at about a pound, the X9 Pro should be easy to carry, and its slim design includes built-in storage for accessories (it comes with adapters for different valve types). Its battery recharges via USB-C and can run continuously for up to 23 minutes.
