New proposal for reaching a deal on the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz

and the ending of the war with nuclear negotiations postponed for a later stage.

That's according to a report from Axios.

And with more, here's Bloomberg's Laura Davison.

Despite sort of, you know, talks seeming to stall out over the weekend.

There clearly is some that behind the scenes through negotiators in Pakistan,

conversations happening.

We saw Trump allude to this proposal over the weekend.

He told reporters that, you know, after he called off a trip from U.S.

envoy Steve Whitkopf and Jared Kushner to go to Pakistan for the weekend,

said that he had immediately gotten a new proposal from Iran,

which he characterized as offering, quote, a lot, but not doing enough.

President Trump is expected to hold a situation room meeting on Iran Monday.

President Meanwhile tells CBS is 60 minutes.

He didn't know if he was the target at the DC Gala shooting on Saturday night.

I wanted to see what was going on.

And by that time we started to realize maybe it was a bad problem,

different kind of a problem, bad one, and different than what would be normal noise from a

ballroom, which you hear all the time. And I was surrounded by great people.

President also told 60 minutes, the White House correspondent's dinner has to be rescheduled.

I don't want to see it be canceled.

I don't want to have a crazy person.

I think it's really bad for a crazy person to be able to cancel something like this.

Authorities have charged 31-year-old Cole Allen with assaulting a federal officer

and using a firearm in an assault.

He's set to be arraigned on felony charges Monday.

A group of budget airlines, including Frontier and Avilo,

is seeking $2.5 billion in government assistance and exchange for warrants

that could convert into equity stakes in the companies.

Now, that's according to the Wall Street Journal.

The budget airline group came up with a $2.5 billion number

by calculating how much more they estimate spending on jet fuel this year

compared with their earlier forecasts.

Conversations about a potential economic aid package

are expected to continue in coming days.

After the CEOs of several low-cost carriers met with transportation secretary Sean Duffy

and federal aviation administration chief Brian Bedford.

Republican Senator Tom Tullis of North Carolina says he will drop his blockade

of Kevin Worsh's nomination to lead the federal reserve.

The announcement on Friday was well received by me.

I think it's the first time that the Department of Justice in DC,

or I should say the DC prosecutors have acknowledged that they're not going to carry this case forward.

The case is on appeal, but after that statement, I've had a number of discussions

with the Department of Justice. They have made it very clear

that the current investigation is completely and fully ended.

Tell us, spoke on NBC's Meet the Press.

The British royals are set to arrive Monday for a visit hosted by President Trump,

King Charles and Queen Camilla will travel to the US this week for an official state visit.

With more, here's Bloomberg's Michelle Hussein host of the Michelle Hussein show.

From the UK government and diplomacy's point of view, it's welcome to have a kind of moment

which reminds the President that there is at least a special relationship for him personally

with the United States because of his mothers, with the United Kingdom because of his mothers heritage.

And the idea that in the period that the King's here, that he can do some of that diplomatic work,

and frankly, he's been a diplomat all his life.

But on top of that, it's also personally, there is an awkwardness for the King because of the

call for him to meet Epstein survivors and the connection that his brother had with the late

Jeffrey Epstein. Bloomberg's Michelle Hussein, speaking on Bloomberg's this weekend.

Chevron CEO Mike Worth says changes to Venezuela's oil policy are a sign of progress in trying

to attract foreign investment. The new interim president has overseen some changes in their

hydrocarbon law, which changes the terms under which companies could invest in the country.

It moves things in a positive direction. It still needs some work. It's probably not enough

to bring in the level of investment that would be desirable. So I think there's progress that's

been made. I think the U.S. has reopened the embassy. It's got some people on the ground now that

are interacting with the Venezuelan government on a regular basis. Venezuelan government seems

to be very interested in more U.S. investment in the country.

Chevron CEO Mike Worth, speaking on CBS's Face the Nation. And so far this year,

Chevron shares are up by 21.5%. And that's news when you want it with Bloomberg news.

Now I'm Charlie. How to attempt this?
