A retaliatory strike against Iran has been launched by Israel. U.S. officials confirm missiles have struck a number of locations inside Iran, with no word yet on whether there were any casualties. Several explosions were reported near an airbase in the Iranian city of Isfahan, home to a number of sites linked to Iran's nuclear program.        Former President Trump's hush money criminal trial in New York City has found its 12 jurors. Now six alternates must be selected. That process resumes later this morning.        A near miss on a runway at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport outside Washington, DC has sparked a FAA investigation. It happened Thursday morning when a plane crossed the runway as another was starting its take off. The planes - one a Southwest flight, the other JetBlue - reportedly came within just 300 feet from each other.       Taylor Swift's new album has finally dropped. "The Tortured Poets Department" is already getting praise from critics, who are calling it "wildly unguarded," a "cathartic confession" and "unapologetically dramatic."        Writers for "Sesame Street" have voted to strike. This, after the Writers Guild of America held a vote that saw all 35 writers authorize a strike if an agreement on a new contract can't be reached. The NHL's Arizona Coyotes are moving to Utah. The league's Board of Governors approved the sale of the team to Utah Jazz owner Ryan Smith Thursday. The franchise will play in Salt Lake City starting next season.
