Election Betting on Prediction Markets, Special Education, Breastmilk Storage

Kalshi's new plan to prevent political campaign staffers from betting on their own campaigns is hardly foolproof. The disability community has concerns about moving special education oversight from the Education Department to the Department of Health and Human Services.

Iran and US Pause Fighting Again, TPS Work Permits, July 4th Teen Death Investigation

It's not clear if peace talks are still on as the funeral for Iran's former supreme leader wrapped up after days of mourning, and the tit-for-tat strikes appear to have stopped in what could be another lull, though Israel says it's ready to go back to war at any moment. More than 300,000 Haitians and thousands of Syrians are about to lose their right to work in this country, and with the work permit goes the driver's license, leaving people in places like Springfield, Ohio waiting to see what happens next.  The family of Nolan Wells speaks out today, weeks after the Black teenager was found dead on a Mississippi barrier island following a Fourth of July trip with friends, a case that's drawn national attention now that the family has hired civil rights attorney Ben Crump.

Trump's Whiplash Foreign Policy, Iran War Escalates, Graham Platner Drops Out

President Trump keeps swinging between threats and flattery, calling Iran's leaders rational and smart three weeks ago and scum this week, and he's a similar tactic with NATO allies, going from freeloaders to friends in a single summit. The U.S. struck Iran for a second straight night, hitting some 90 military targets near the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran fired back at American bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, putting Israel's military on full readiness and leaving the region bracing for more.  And Graham Platner has suspended his Senate campaign in Maine, still denying the rape allegation that brought him down, and now Democrats have until the end of the month to pick someone new for a race they think they can win.

Iran Ceasefire Over, Platner Replacements Emerge, Olympic Committee Lifts Russia Ban

President Trump declared the ceasefire with Iran over at the NATO summit this morning, after the two sides traded heavy strikes overnight. Maine Democrats appear ready to move on from Graham Platner, who still hasn't said whether he'll drop his Senate bid after an accusation of sexual assault he denies, as party leaders scramble to line up a replacement before a fast-approaching deadline. And the International Olympic Committee has lifted its ban on Russia, opening the door to the 2028 Los Angeles Games even as Russian missiles kill civilians in Ukraine, a decision that has Ukrainians furious.

Platner Pressured To Drop Out, NATO Summit In Turkey, US Out Of World Cup

Maine Democrat Graham Platner is facing growing calls to drop out of his Senate race after Politico published a former girlfriend's allegation of sexual assault, which he denies, in a blow to a party that saw the seat as key to retaking the Senate. NATO leaders are gathering in Turkey with President Trump among them, as he presses allies to spend more on their own defense while they look for reassurance that the U.S. still stands behind the alliance. And the U.S. men’s team’s World Cup run is over after a 4-1 loss to Belgium in the round of 16, capping Team USA's tournament full of promise and political controversy.
