Just hours after threatening to hit Iran “very hard,” President Donald Trump reversed course and announced he was calling off those strikes. In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote that negotiations had “been brought to the highest level of Iranian leadership and approved.” NBC News senior national security correspondent Courtney Kube analyzes the president’s surprising change of course and whether it truly signals an end to the war. Then: Billionaire Bill Gates is the latest powerful figure in Jeffrey Epstein’s orbit to testify on Capitol Hill about his connections to the late convicted sex offender. During a closed-door six-hour meeting, Gates accused Epstein of holding Gates’ extramarital affairs over him to try to re-engage and said he hoped his testimony would help the victims of Epstein’s abuse. NBC News anchor and senior Washington correspondent Hallie Jackson explains what we learned about the Gates-Epstein relationship and whether acting Attorney General Todd Blanche might be called to testify in the future.

Inflation just hit its highest rate in three years, climbing in May to 4.2%. The surge has been driven largely by energy costs, which have been exacerbated by the war with Iran. After renewed attacks overnight by the U.S. and Iran, consumers worry sky-high gas prices and airline tickets could be lingering. Meanwhile, despite the recent strong jobs report, consumer prices are outpacing wage growth for the second month in a row. NBC News Chief Business Correspondent Christine Romans explains why the economy is delivering such mixed messages. Then, Jack Schlossberg, grandson of President John F. Kennedy, is running for Congress in one of the most competitive districts in New York. Schlossberg shares why he sees himself as an “outsider,” his opposition to his cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and whether his political aspirations stretch to the White House. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

President Trump posted on Truth Social that the U.S. “must respond” to Iran shooting down a U.S. military helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz early Tuesday. This comes after Iran and Israel exchanged fire for the first time since a ceasefire was reached in April, raising questions about how aligned the U.S. and Israel are in the push to end the war. NBC News International Correspondent Matt Bradley explains how the war has created political headwinds for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Then, preparations are underway for the UFC event scheduled for this weekend at the White House, which the administration says is a celebration of Trump’s 80th birthday and the 250th anniversary of the United States. While the tickets to the UFC fights are free, a Trump-backed super PAC will host a $1M-per-person fundraiser the day before the event. NBC News Senior National Politics Reporter Matt Dixon breaks down why there’s a legal battle brewing over the fight and how it ties into the decadeslong friendship between President Trump and UFC CEO Dana White. Then, 2026 French Open Champion Mirra Andreeva shares why she always thanks herself after winning big matches. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The May jobs report just dropped with some surprising data: 172,000 jobs were added last month, despite growing energy costs and inflation exacerbated by the war with Iran. Is the economy more resilient than people think, or are economists right to be worried about inflation outpacing wage growth?
