This is who Dolly Parton was. ❤️ “My dad couldn’t read and write, so I wanted to do something to make him feel part of something special.” So she did. Dolly turned her love for her dad into the Imagination Library, putting more than 330 MILLION books into the hands of children.

In a documentary broadcast on Israel’s Channel 13, the mother of one of the hostages killed in Gaza by Israeli soldiers said she had spoken with soldiers involved. “They received an unequivocal order: Everything you see — and you will not hesitate, even if they’re civilians — you shoot to kill.”

Israeli soldiers also said that they were told to consider shooting women and children.

Screenshot of an X post by Jeremy Loffredo saying Trump told CNN’s Dana Bash that liberating the Iranian people is not a goal of the war and that he would accept an undemocratic religious leader if they treated the U.S. and Israel “fairly.” Below is a CNN image of the White House with a graphic saying Trump told CNN he is not worried whether Iran becomes a democracy.
