Week in Review: The Biggest Ransomware Attack in History, and Much More

• On the July 4 weekend, the largest ransomware attack in history occurred, affecting hundreds of businesses and showing just how vulnerable society has become to cyberattacks.
• Daily rocket and drone attacks on the U.S. in Iraq are increasing, and one analyst says Iran has effectively declared war on the U.S. there. But America seems unwilling to respond and ready to retreat.
• Satellite images show China constructing 119 new silos for intercontinental ballistic missiles, which significantly boosts the Asian giant as a nuclear threat.
• We also talk about the European Union using kid gloves to punish German car makers that break EU rules, the Biden administration warning Israel to stop demolishing terrorists’ homes, the concerning progress in China’s space program, America’s NSA illegally spying on Tucker Carlson, and American socialists joining forces with foreign socialists to bring down America’s government.
