14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, a virtually all-children born on U.S. soil, receive American citizenship. And Pierre's carry Johnson says this court term was mixed for President Trump. The Supreme Court has handed President Trump and future presidents a lot of power to fire people in the federal government and reshape agencies we thought were independent. But Trump lost big, and a few of the cases that mattered most to him in the birthright
case and with his tariffs. And Pierre's carry Johnson reporting. Qatar's Prime Minister met Indohut today with White House envoy Steve Whitkoff and President Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner. They discussed the next steps in the interim piece to deal with Iran. And Pierre's A. Abitrawe reports Iran's delegation arrives in Qatar today, but won't hold direct talks with the U.S. on-voys.
“Qatar says its prime minister Muhammad al-Fani discussed the interim piece deal with the White”

Iran says its negotiators are discussing with Qatar emediators the need for a full Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon in talks today in Doha. Iran's foreign ministry says its delegation is also raising the issue of the release of billions of dollars in frozen assets

A. Abitrawe and Pierre news, Dubai. The government of Venezuela says the earthquake death toll has risen to well over 1900 people tens of thousands of people are still missing. It's been a week since the back-to-back
quakes struck northern Venezuela. Nearly 50 million people are under extreme heat warnings in
the central and eastern U.S. and these warnings will spread. And Pierre's Rebecca Hershey reports fans attending World Cup soccer matches in several cities will feel this. The July fourth match in Philadelphia is shaping up to be the hottest of all with temperatures around 100 degrees that day and high humidity that will make it feel even hotter. Matches in New Jersey can't the city and Miami will all be affected by high temperatures as well.
FIFA the governing body for international soccer did not respond to questions from NPR about whether cooling protections such as mistures and free water for fans and workers will be available in matches this week. Heat waves are peaking at higher temperatures than in the past and the average number of heat waves the U.S. experiences today has doubled since the 1980s because of climate change.

Washington. President Trump says the Republican Party will hold a party convention
early September in Dallas. It's the first time the GOP has held a convention in a mid-term election
year. Writing online, Trump says the convention is intended to celebrate the country's achievements. New Jersey Republican Congressman Thomas Kane Jr. has returned to work on Capitol Hill. He had been away for four months without explanation. During a floor speech yesterday, Kane just closed. He had been treated for depression. Kane is running for reelection. He has won his New Jersey Republican primary race.
A new California law takes effect today. It's aimed at clearing up confusion over food exploration dates. Manufacturers currently use dozens of different labels and say things like cell-by or use-by. From Member Station, KCLU, Lance Arasco has more. How do you know when the food you buy is no longer safe to use? Some labels say cell-by, but people sometimes mistake that for an expiration date and throw out food that's still good.
The result is a lot of waste. Recycling experts say more than two billion meals in
California alone are thrown out annually. Under California's new law, packages can no longer have cell-by dates, they have to say best of use-by to show Pete Freshness and use-by. That's when a product is no longer safe to eat. The law's author says this could be a model for national legislation, but it took multiple tries with the food industry to get the state ruled past. For NPR News, I'm Lance Arasco in Thousand Oaks, California.
