TIME is reporting on a series of recent Supreme Court rulings that have yielded mixed results for President Donald Trump. The court upheld the 150-year-old constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship and denied Trump's efforts to limit mail-in voting. However, it granted the president increased control over federal agencies, struck down long-standing limits on political party spending, and allowed states to ban transgender athletes from competing in girls' and women's sports. Legal experts Michael W. McConnell and Chris Geidner offered differing views on Trump's overall judicial performance, with Geidner noting that even losses like birthright citizenship indicate a shift in legal discourse, as four justices questioned the constitutional right.
Separately, TIME is reporting that Donald Trump earned more than $1.4 billion from his family's crypto ventures last year, making it his primary source of income, surpassing earnings from real estate and legal settlements.
In sports news, TIME's Sean Gregory is cautioning U.S. soccer fans against underestimating Bosnia and Herzegovina, the U.S. men's team's first opponent in the World Cup knockout stage on July 1.
Regarding international affairs, TIME is reporting that U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are in Doha for discussions with mediators concerning the Iran deal. No high-level talks with Iranian officials are currently scheduled. Additionally, Moody’s Analytics chief economist Mark Zandi estimates the Iran war has cost the typical American household $1,000 since February, primarily due to rising fuel and food costs linked to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
Finally, TIME is reporting that the Great American State Fair, a 16-day event on the National Mall celebrating America's 250th birthday, is facing low participation. At least eight states — Connecticut, Illinois, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Maine, Oregon, Washington, and Pennsylvania — have opted not to participate, and online videos show sparse crowds.
