🤔Friends in need, friends indeed? Tucker Carlson is reportedly close friends with Hunter Biden, and intervened in a media report on his behalf,
A new batch of emails extracted from a laptop reportedly owned by Hunter Biden suggests that the Fox News host lent a helping hand to Hunter in 2015. The son of POTUS asked the right wing talk show host to call in the aftermath of a scandalous report about Hunter using the services of the extramarital affairs website ‘Ashley Madison’. The bombshell piece, published by the Daily Mail, was based on a massive leak of user data featuring alleged addresses, credit card info and names.
The emails from the laptop suggest that upon learning of the scandal and the fact that a Daily Mail reporter had confronted Hunter's daughter, Finnegan, 16 at the time, Carlson intervened, condemning the actions of the media outlet.
Is Carlson double-dipping?

🇮🇷 Iran has blamed Washington's refusal to lift sanctions for Friday's breakdown in the latest round of talks regarding a return to the 2015 JCPOA nuclear deal in Vienna.
A senior Iranian Foreign Ministry official said that the problem lies in the US delegation's insistence that it would maintain some sanctions even if Tehran limits its uranium enrichment
"It has now become clear that the US reluctance to fully abandon the sanctions is the major challenge to progress in the talks," the official said.
