Trump Shakes Up Gaza Diplomacy

The Wall Street Journal
About this episode

A.M. Edition for Feb. 13. WSJ correspondent Summer Said says President Trump’s plan to take over Gaza and relocate Palestinians is prompting Arab states to set aside old political concerns and race to find an alternative–and putting pressure on an already fragile cease-fire. Plus, a judge lifts the freeze on a buyout offer for federal workers. And Elon Musk says he’ll withdraw his bid to control OpenAI if the board stops its conversion to a for-profit company. Luke Vargas hosts.
