  • Hi, this is Andy.

  • I've been a New York Times subscriber for years and years, and I'm trying to get my teenagers interested in reading it.

  • If they were to have their own logins and we could share articles, I think that would help get them interested.

  • It would also then allow us to discuss over the dinner table or wherever.

  • Thank you very much.

  • Andy, we heard you.

  • It's why we created the New York Times Family subscription.

  • One subscription, up to four separate logins for anyone in your life.

  • Find out more at nytimes.com slash family.

  • From the New York Times, it's the headlines.

  • I'm Tracy Mumford.

  • Today's Friday, August 21st.

  • Here's what we're covering.

  • With the war in Iran almost at the six-month mark,

  • President Trump is issuing new threats, this time aimed at Iran's economy.

  • On social media this week, he promised what he called an economic D-Day and, quote,

  • the most crushing economic operation ever taken against any country.

  • Though his administration has not specified what that will look like.

  • What can we expect here?

  • Yeah, you're going to expect, I'll be holding a press conference on Monday to talk about exactly what we're going to do.
