One of the interview subjects for this article was David Gans, creator of the syndicated radio program The Grateful Dead Hour and a longtime host on SiriusXM’s Grateful Dead Channel. He also regularly teaches a college course on the Grateful Dead through Stanford University Continuing Studies.

The New England Patriots overhauled their offensive line during the 2025 offseason, and Vederian Lowe was one of the victims of that process. While not the most freakish athlete or highest-upside offensive tackle in the league, he did do a fairly decent job filling in as a starter. And with him never leaving the Patriots’ active roster, it actually remained alive through the 2025 season. As noted above, quality left tackle play is not easily found even at the backup level. Even though Lowe looked solid as a spot-starter in 2025, the Patriots and the 27-year-old will go their different ways this free agency.

No evidence has connected Iran with the two assassination attempts against Trump in 2024. “His plots to assassinate President Trump are just one reason.”Trump’s ambassador to the United Nations, Mike Waltz, portrayed Iran’s interest in killing Trump as part of a pattern of behavior that justified the U.S. attack. At a briefing on the threats in September 2024, U.S. officials told the Trump campaign that Iran had multiple kill teams inside the country. Trump and his administration have not extensively presented a public case for the attack on Iran.

The administration officials will brief the full House and Senate on Tuesday ahead of expected votes teed up by Democrats to curb Trump’s military action in Iran. But Americans soured on that war amid mounting US casualties — and faulty intelligence claims from administration officials that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth speaks during a press conference on US military action in Iran, at the Pentagon on March 2, 2026. Trump officials have also exaggerated the potential advancement of Iran’s nuclear program, which Trump said was “obliterated” following US strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities last year. “President Trump has all the latitude in the world to talk about how long it may or may not take, four weeks, two weeks, six weeks.
