Israel has launched a retaliatory strike against Iran. 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. The International Atomic Energy Agency says none of the sites sustained any damage.       Oil priced surged three dollars a barrel overnight after Israel launched an attack on Iran before easing a bit. Concerns over the potential disruption of Middle East oil was behind the jump.       Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be on the ballot in Michigan. Officials in the battleground state confirmed the news Thursday. Kennedy's independent bid has scared some allies of President Biden and former President Trump, who fear his name recognition and supporters may be able to swing the election.       Taylor Swift is releasing a second installment to her new album, "The Tortured Poets Department." The highly-anticipated new album dropped at midnight, featuring 16 songs including the first single, "Fortnite." Shortly after 2am Eastern, Swift announced that it was actually a "secret double album," and released 15 more songs.       Thousands of employees at the Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga, Tennessee are wrapping up voting today for unionization. Governor Bill Lee has joined governors from five other states opposing the union. Pro-union supporters believe the UAW will help improve safety and wages. This is the third attempt at the plant in recent years to unionize.       Allman Brothers Band singer-guitarist Dickey Betts has died at the age of 80. His family announced his death on his Instagram account. They said Betts passed away peacefully Thursday at his home in Florida surrounded by his family. Betts wrote and sung on the Allman Brothers Band hit "Ramblin' Man" which peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
