Mexico City Residents Protest Against Gentrification | U.S. Migrant Influx & Soaring Rents | N18G

On July 4, hundreds of demonstrators gathered in Mexico City to protest against growing gentrification, especially in neighborhoods like Colonia Condesa. Protesters highlighted the rising cost of living, including a 47% surge in rents over the past five years, which has led to the displacement of long-term residents. A major concern is the influx of affluent U.S. migrants, many of whom work remotely and are drawn by Mexico City’s comparatively low cost of living. These foreigners can stay for up to 180 days without a visa, often rotating their stays to avoid legal restrictions. Protesters called for more regulated migration and for foreign residents to contribute more meaningfully to the local economy. According to activist Eduardo Alanis, government policies tend to favor wealthier newcomers over local communities. The protest reflects growing backlash against policies and economic shifts that prioritize foreign investment and lifestyles over the stability and needs of local populations.

On July 4, President Donald Trump signed into law a major tax and spending bill following a narrow 218–214 vote in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives. The legislation, a key victory for Trump in his second term, makes his 2017 tax cuts permanent, funds his immigration crackdown, and is projected to strip millions of Americans of health insurance. The bill's passage was celebrated with a patriotic White House ceremony featuring a military flyover. Despite concerns about its estimated $3.3 trillion addition to the national debt, only two House Republicans joined all Democrats in opposing it. Supporters claim the bill will boost economic growth, while critics argue it benefits the wealthy and harms low-income Americans by cutting healthcare and food aid programs. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries spoke for a record 8 hours and 46 minutes against the bill, calling it unjust and damaging. The legislation reflects deep partisan divides over fiscal and social policy.

Trump Ends 90-Day Tariff Pause — New Trade Letters Coming Before July 9 | N18G

President Trump’s 90-day pause on global reciprocal tariffs is set to expire on July 9, and he has no plans to extend it. Instead, he intends to notify each country individually about the tariffs they will face to do business with the U.S., sending letters to various countries specifying their rates. Trump recently announced a trade deal with Vietnam, allowing U.S. goods to enter duty-free, while Vietnamese exports to the U.S. will face a 20% tariff. This follows an earlier 46% tax on Vietnamese imports as part of broader reciprocal tariffs aimed at countries with trade deficits with the U.S. Despite the tariff suspension intended to enable negotiations, only the UK has reached a trade agreement so far. Trump also urged Iran to resume talks with special envoy Steve Witkoff and offered to meet personally if necessary. Iran, however, suspended cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency after U.S. airstrikes. Trump emphasized the goal is to help Iran become “a country again” and expressed concern for safety in Gaza.

Trump Claimed Victory: Pentagon Says Iran Nuclear Sites Still a Threat

The Pentagon has pushed back on Donald Trump’s bold claim that U.S. airstrikes ended Iran’s nuclear program. Days after the former president called the operation a total victory, the Department of Defense offered a more cautious assessment. According to Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell, Iran’s facilities at Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan were severely damaged, but the nuclear program is only delayed — not destroyed. Intelligence estimates now suggest a setback of up to two years. There is no indication, however, that Iran has abandoned its ambitions. While physical infrastructure may be compromised, intent remains uncertain. This report, Shivani Singh, breaks down what was actually achieved in the strike — and what wasn’t.

Is Xi Jinping Losing His Grip? Disappearance Sparks Power Struggle Speculation in Beijing

China’s President Xi Jinping has been missing from public view for nearly three weeks, fuelling speculation about internal turmoil in the Chinese Communist Party. Once seen as a unifier, Xi tightened his grip through purges and loyalty-driven governance. But recent removals of top officials suggest fractures at the top.

Where Is Iran’s Uranium? 400kg Missing After US Bombing | Iran Nuclear Crisis

Over 400 kilograms of highly enriched uranium is missing from Iran — enough for multiple nuclear weapons. The U.S. claims its airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear sites were a massive success… but if the uranium isn’t there, what really happened?

LA Protests: Trump Deploys Marines To Quell Unrest, Crowds Gather On Streets

In a controversial move, the Trump administration announced the temporary deployment of about 700 U.S. Marines to the city to support until more National Guard troops arrive.

Macron Takes Firm Stand Against Israel Over Seized Boat, Says Blocking Aid Is 'Shameful'

France is in contact with Israel concerning six French nationals aboard the British-flagged charity yacht Madleen, which was seized while attempting to break Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza. The vessel aimed to deliver symbolic aid and raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis. French President Emmanuel Macron, speaking at the U.N. Ocean Summit in Nice, condemned the blockade as “shameful” and called for a ceasefire in Gaza. Since March, Israel has sealed Gaza’s borders, blocking supplies over concerns that Hamas was diverting aid. Recently, limited food has been allowed in, distributed by an Israeli-backed group, but many Palestinians have died trying to access it. Separately, Macron announced that the High Seas Treaty, focused on conserving international waters, will come into effect in early 2026 after receiving enough ratifications. The treaty, adopted in 2023, allows countries to establish marine parks in international waters, which cover nearly two-thirds of the ocean but are largely unprotected.

UN Ocean Conference Kickstarts In Nice | Macron Welcomes Participants, Vows To Protect Oceans

French President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron welcomed global leaders to an opening dinner in Nice on June 8 for the United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC3), held at the historic Negresco hotel. The conference, running from July 9 to 13, seeks to boost support for a treaty to protect ocean biodiversity, which currently lacks enough signatories to take effect. Macron emphasized France’s leadership in marine protection, downplaying the absence of U.S. President Donald Trump and his administration. He expressed hope that more than the current 30 nations will commit to halting deep-sea exploitation. Highlighting five interconnected ocean crises—biodiversity loss, water quality, food security, health, and climate change—Macron called for increased European funding for scientific deep-sea research. France is co-hosting the event with Costa Rica, a country recognized for environmental stewardship. Macron urged a unified global response, describing unregulated deep-sea exploitation as reckless and scientifically unjustified.
