Today’s Headlines: The U.S. has warned Israel it might cut off military aid if they don’t allow more humanitarian supplies into Gaza, giving them a month to act. Meanwhile, Biden officials believe Israel won’t hit Iran’s nuclear sites, and Hezbollah is ramping up threats of more strikes on Tel Aviv and Haifa. Back in the U.S., Georgia saw record early voter turnout, while the DOJ is stepping in to monitor an Ohio county after concerns about voter intimidation. Trump held a strange town hall where he stopped answering questions and just played music. On the disaster front, Biden announced the government’s disaster loan fund is out of money, leaving recent hurricane survivors in the lurch. But on a positive note, the Pentagon has upgraded 800 discharges for veterans impacted by "Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell."
