Good Morning! On this day in 1876, Native American forces led by Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull defeated the U.S. Army troops commanded by Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer in the Battle of the Little Bighorn, located near the Little Bighorn River in southern Montana.
Yale just tracked over 11,000 seniors for more than a decade, and what they found breaks every rule you’ve been told about getting older. Nearly half of them didn’t decline. They got BETTER. Cognitively. Physically. Researchers found the one hidden factor driving it, and it’s not genetics. Ayla breaks down what it is, and the four things you can start doing today to be in that improving half. Coming up on The Flyover Podcast. Tune in here!

 UN to Resume Nuclear Inspections in Iran
The U.N. nuclear watchdog said inspections of Iran’s nuclear sites will happen under the new U.S.-Iran deal, though it gave no timeline as leaders in both countries sent mixed signals.
President Trump said the war is going “very well,” with Iran making major concessions during the 60-day negotiating window opened by a memorandum the two presidents signed last week.
Meanwhile, Trump labeled as “meaningless” a Senate vote on Tuesday directing the president to remove the U.S. military from fighting against Iran.

Trump Halts Housing Bill over Voting Law
President Trump abruptly canceled the signing of a bipartisan housing bill Wednesday, refusing to sign until the Senate passes his signature elections bill, the SAVE America Act.
The housing bill cleared both chambers with overwhelming bipartisan support, limiting big investors from buying single-family homes and easing building rules to boost supply.
The SAVE America Act would add proof-of-citizenship and voter ID rules. It has stalled in the Senate, where Republicans lack the votes to break a filibuster.
Speaker Mike Johnson said Trump still plans to sign the bill within his 10-day window while the House considers pursuing reconciliation for the elections measure, a path the Senate parliamentarian has said shouldn’t be allowed.

Slate Unveils America’s Cheapest Truck
Slate Auto, the EV startup backed by Jeff Bezos, revealed a $24,950 starting price for its electric pickup, the cheapest truck in America. See the truck here.
The no-frills two-seater skips paint, touchscreens, and power windows, holding costs down with a bare body and hand-cranked windows.
More than 180,000 people have already made a small deposit to reserve a vehicle, and the company aims to profit on every truck from day one, with deliveries due late this year.
The launch arrives as EV demand sags after the federal tax credit expired. Slate is betting a sub-$25,000 base-price sticker still wins over budget-minded buyers.
