[00:00:00]Meantime, President Trump revealed this afternoon that he had planned to attack Iran tomorrow, but will now hold off to let talks move forward. In a true social post, he says serious negotiations are now underway, but he warned that a full large-scale assault of the country could begin on a moment's notice if a deal is not reached. Iran says it is focused on an agreement to end the war, but has not discussed details on nuclear matters, the Trump administration's top issue.

[00:00:26]New CBS News polling shows around 76% of Americans feel concerned about the economy, and more describing gas prices as a financial hardship since the beginning of the war with Iran. And across South Florida, gas prices are down compared to a week ago. On average, regular gallon of gas will cost $4.37 in Miami-Dade, it's $4.25 in Broward, and $4.46 in Monroe County.
