WASHINGTON (AP) — Trump warns a 'whole civilization will die tonight' but says Iran still has time to capitulate before 8 p.m. ET deadline.

Iranian musician Ali Ghamsari, a composer and Tar player, announced that starting today, he will stay at Damavand power plant responsible for providing half of Tehran’s electricity with his instrument for some time, creating music to help prevent attacks on Iran's infrastructure.


The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (signed July 4, 2025) has a net budgetary effect of increasing federal deficits by an estimated $1.8–2.0 trillion over its first four years (FY2026–2029). Per CRFB/CBO scoring: +$500B in 2026 and +$635B in 2027 alone, with elevated costs continuing into 2028–2029 before declining as some offsets phase in. Tax cuts (e.g., TCJA extensions, no tax on tips/overtime) are front-loaded; spending reductions (e.g., Medicaid/SNAP reforms) ramp up later. Total conventional 10-year deficit increase: $3.4T (+$4.1T with interest).

The American VP traveled all the way to Hungary to support the most pro-Kremlin and corrupt EU leader before the elections. What an embarrassment it is for the USA.
