Description

Today’s Headlines: On Friday, the Supreme Court upheld a federal law barring those under domestic-violence restraining orders from owning guns, with Justice Clarence Thomas dissenting. This ruling comes as the court prepares to release decisions on 15 significant cases, including Donald Trump's immunity from prosecution for election interference and the legality of obstruction charges for January 6th rioters. Meanwhile, Donald Trump, addressing evangelicals, endorsed Louisiana's law to display the Ten Commandments in public schools and suggested a controversial sports league idea involving migrants. A newly released recording from 2021 features Trump accidentally admitting he lost the 2020 election. Additionally, Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun admitted to retaliating against whistleblowers during a Senate hearing. Finally, extreme heat continues to wreak havoc globally, with over 1,300 deaths during the Hajj pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia and record temperatures across the country, with an even hotter July forecasted.
