08.07.2025 โ‡ข The Court's Unbinding, The Waters' Hold
โŒจThe day began with continued intense focus on the Texas flash floods, as the death toll surpassed 100, and reports highlighted the record-breaking nature of the event and fading hopes for survivors. Media scrutiny focused on the lack of flood warning systems and previously denied funding. Throughout the day, President Trump's trade policies gained prominence, with announcements of new tariffs and resumed diplomatic talks with Iran, alongside pledges of increased military aid to Ukraine. By late afternoon, political debate intensified over the National Weather Service's staffing and alleged Trump administration budget cuts in relation to the floods. Later in the evening, editorial priority decisively shifted to the Supreme Court's decision allowing President Trump to proceed with plans to downsize the federal workforce, marking a significant victory for his administration. The Texas flood narrative continued, with the death toll rising and over 160 people reported missing, alongside ongoing search efforts and official responses.
