Speaker 1: This is WBZ, Boston's news radio, redefining local news.
Speaker 2: Sixty nine degrees overcast in Boston. It's eleven o'clock. Good morning.
Speaker 2: I'm Nicole Davis, and here's what's happening. A lunchtime protest
Speaker 2: is planned in downtown Boston at the JFK Federal Building
Speaker 2: demanding the US stay out of a war with Iran.
Speaker 2: Progressive organizations putting on this demonstration say they want Congress too,
Speaker 2: has five partisan war power resolutions that have been filed
Speaker 2: on Capitol Hill. Organizers say they're also protesting the recent
Speaker 2: US strikes on Iran and calling for an end to
Speaker 2: all US military aid for Israel. It's happening at noon
Speaker 2: at the JFK Federal Building. This comes as the Pentagon
Speaker 2: doubles down on its assessment of those strikes in Iran
Speaker 2: last weekend.
Speaker 3: Do you want to call it destroyed, You want to
Speaker 3: call it defeated, you want to call it obliterated.
Speaker 1: Choose your word.
Speaker 3: This was an historically successful attack and we should celebrate
Speaker 3: as Americains.
Speaker 2: Secretary Pete Hegseth ripping into the media and others this
Speaker 2: morning for reporting on an early intelligence assessment. It showed
Speaker 2: Iran's nuclear program had only been set back by a
Speaker 2: few months. Joint Chiefs Chair Dan Kaine says the strikes
Speaker 2: were carried out precisely as intended. He detailed the attack
Speaker 2: on the four Dough nuclear facility.
Speaker 4: Weapons two, three, four five were tasked to enter the
Speaker 4: main shaft, moved down into the complex at greater than
Speaker 4: one thousand feet per second, and explode in the mission space.
Speaker 2: While there is no way to independently assess just how
Speaker 2: much damage was done at the site, President Trump maintains
Speaker 2: the mission quote fully obliterated Iran's nuclear capabilities. Israel has
Speaker 2: reportedly paused aid to Gaza after an Israeli official threatened
Speaker 2: to quit the government. Here's CBS's Lindagradstein.
Speaker 5: Israeli press reports said that hardline Finance Minister Bitsalo Smotrich
Speaker 5: threatened to leave the government if aid continued to reach Hamas.
Speaker 5: He reportedly made the threat during a cabinet meeting after
Speaker 5: a video circulated on social media that showed armed individuals
Speaker 5: on AID trucks. Nitanya, who ordered the army to come
Speaker 5: up with a plan to prevent Hamas from getting the aid.
Speaker 5: Palestinians and Gaza said the armed men on the trucks
Speaker 5: were clan leaders, not members of Hamas.
Speaker 2: And Hamas has reportedly denied any involvement in those attacks. Meantime,
Speaker 2: new data shows the US economy shrank more than initially
Speaker 2: reported in the first quarter of this year. Your CBS
Speaker 2: is Jill Fleschinger with an update.
Speaker 6: We saw softness in consumer spending, but most importantly, this
Speaker 6: number is impacted by the fact that companies started to
Speaker 6: import very aggressively in the first three months of the year.
Speaker 6: Most economists believe that the shrinking of the US economy
Speaker 6: in the first quarter will reverse itself when the second
Speaker 6: quarter numbers are released.
Speaker 2: The Commerce Department previously estimating the economy fell point two
Speaker 2: percent January through March. The Department now says that shrinkage
Speaker 2: was closer too, point five percent. It is much cool
Speaker 2: and a little bit wetter than it has been over
Speaker 2: the past few days. Most of us right now seeing
Speaker 2: temperatures in the upper sixties, low seventies, and certainly feeling
Speaker 2: a lot less sticky and humid too. Those dew points
Speaker 2: are definitely down right now, a due point of about
Speaker 2: fifty two degrees in Boston, so that is far from
Speaker 2: a tropical feel outside, and you're going to notice this
Speaker 2: is the case. For the rest of the day. We
Speaker 2: are seeing some showers, mostly south of Boston. I could
Speaker 2: have a few more pop up though outside the city,
Speaker 2: and we have temperatures in the sixties, couple of low
Speaker 2: seventies for tonight, cloudy with a passing shower and a
Speaker 2: lone near sixty Friday Tomorrow, mostly cloudy with a few showers,
Speaker 2: and we'll have a high in the upper sixties, maybe
Speaker 2: some low seventies, but overall about the same. Now for
Speaker 2: the weekend, we previously, before last weekend, had thirteen weeks
Speaker 2: in a row with rain on Saturday. I hate to
Speaker 2: tell you about both days this weekend. We could have
Speaker 2: some showers moving through, so we break that trend of
Speaker 2: weekends without rain. I guess we're up to one.
Speaker 7: Now take it.
Speaker 2: I suppose high and both high on both weekend days
Speaker 2: rather in the low to mid seventies with occasional rain.
Speaker 2: Right now, our temperature sixty seven in Westford, sixty eight
Speaker 2: in Danvers, sixty six in Weymouth, and in Boston eleven
Speaker 2: oh five. It is overcast and sixty seven degrees. Well
Speaker 2: ten years ago today, the Supreme Court said I do
Speaker 2: to same sex marriage, years after Massachusetts first legalized it.
Speaker 2: Here's CBS's Matt Piper on this day.
Speaker 8: Ten years ago, the Supreme Court gave same sex couples
Speaker 8: access to marriage nationwide, which was controversial at the time,
Speaker 8: but according to some polls, about seventy percent of Americans
Speaker 8: approve of it.
Speaker 1: Today's celebration of the Obergafello the Hodges decision making love
Speaker 1: the law of the land is a celebration of hard
Speaker 1: work and triumph.
Speaker 8: Donathan Love. It's with the Human Rights campaign, says trans
Speaker 8: people are now having their rights take it away.
Speaker 1: We may feel daunted, we may feel under attack, but
Speaker 1: we are never alone, and we should take so much
Speaker 1: pride in the community that we build and the work
Speaker 1: that we're going to do together.
Speaker 8: Ahead, Matt Piper, CBS News and you.
Speaker 2: This morning, the Supreme Court is out with the ruling
Speaker 2: that could further restrict abortion accessinationwide. The High Court a
Speaker 2: short time ago ruling states can cut off Medicaid money
Speaker 2: to clinics like Planned Parenthood in a case out of
Speaker 2: South Carolina. Now, public health care money generally cannot be
Speaker 2: used to pay for abortions, but many Medicaid patients go
Speaker 2: to clinics like Planned Parenthood for other medical reasons than contraception,
Speaker 2: cancer screenings, pregnancy testing, STI testing, and more. South Carolina
Speaker 2: blocked to all Medicaid money from going to clinics like
Speaker 2: Planned Parenthood because it provides abortions, regardless of what type
Speaker 2: of care the money was actually used for. Cutting off
Speaker 2: Medicaid dollars to clinics like Planned Parenthood deals a serious
Speaker 2: financial blow and could force closures even in places where
Speaker 2: abortion is legal. Schools out for summer in Newton, but
Speaker 2: when kids come back in the fall, officials say they're
