This NPR news podcast, "Up First," covers several developing stories. First, the UK is considering recognizing a Palestinian state if Israel doesn't de-escalate the situation in Gaza, where famine conditions are dire due to restricted aid. Then, the Trump administration's EPA is planning to reverse course on considering carbon dioxide a pollutant, which could significantly impact the auto industry and the push for electric vehicles. Finally, President Trump faces continued scrutiny regarding his past relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, as Ghislaine Maxwell offers to testify in exchange for immunity, and new details emerge about Trump's interactions with Epstein and victims like Virginia Giuffre.
