Trump and Iran are at a standoff, Democrats are in full panic mode over redistricting, and we've got a cruise ship health scare plus some tech news that's actually worth your time.

In this episode of The Morning Rundown, hosts Maya and David cover three major story areas: the escalating standoff between the US and Iran over ceasefire terms, a busy week in domestic politics shaped by redistricting battles, and a mix of health, consumer, and tech news wrapping up the hour.
Listeners will come away with a clear picture of how the Iran negotiations are affecting global oil markets ahead of Trump's China trip, what the Supreme Court's latest gerrymandering ruling means for upcoming elections in Virginia and California, and what they need to know about an expanding chocolate recall, a hantavirus case linked to a cruise ship, and Nintendo's disappointing Switch 2 forecast.
