The Memo: Trump grapples with prospect of all-out Israel-Iran war

The GOP's massive bill—dubbed President Trump's "big, beautiful bill"—just squeaked through the Senate with Vice President Vance breaking a 50-50 tie. Now, it heads to the House for a final, high-stakes showdown as lawmakers race against a July 4 deadline. Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s upcoming White House visit adds another layer to the political drama.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another procedural hurdle—it’s a make-or-break moment for a major piece of legislation that could define the GOP’s agenda. With such a tight margin in the Senate and the House’s unpredictable dynamics, every vote counts. The outcome could ripple through midterm elections and beyond, shaping policy (and political fortunes) for years. Plus, Netanyahu’s visit hints at how foreign policy might get tangled in domestic maneuvering. Buckle up.

Day one at Wimbledon 2025 delivered drama, surprises, and record-breaking moments. Defending champ Barbora Krejcikova clawed her way back from a shaky start, while Britain’s Jack Draper advanced after his opponent retired. Meanwhile, American star Coco Gauff is in trouble early, and Alexander Zverev suffered a shock exit. Oh, and someone just smashed the tournament’s fastest serve ever—153mph!

Editor’s Note: Wimbledon’s opening day had everything fans love: comebacks, upsets, and sheer athletic spectacle. With big names already under pressure and records tumbling, this year’s tournament is shaping up to be unpredictable—exactly why tennis fans can’t look away.

Former President Trump floated his daughter-in-law, Lara Trump, as a potential Senate candidate for North Carolina, suggesting she'd be "great" to fill the seat of retiring GOP Senator Thom Tillis. The comment came when Trump was asked who he’d back for the 2026 race, though Lara hasn’t publicly signaled interest.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just family loyalty—Trump’s endorsement carries weight in GOP primaries, and Lara’s name recognition could shake up the race. But with Tillis stepping down years from now, it’s more of a speculative nod than a concrete plan. Still, it hints at how Trump continues to shape Republican politics, even through informal remarks.

Editor’s Note: This isn't just another crime story—it's a raw look at how cartels prey on vulnerable young people, turning addiction into a pipeline for violence. It underscores the human cost of Mexico's drug war and why so many feel trapped in a system that offers few ways out.
