One of the major stories involves Donald Trump. The former U.S. president was the target of another assassination attempt, this time while at his West Palm Beach golf course. The Secret Service quickly neutralized the threat, and Trump was unharmed. This follows a previous incident during a rally in Pennsylvania just weeks ago. With the election season looming, Trump’s security is once again in the spotlight as questions are raised about how well the Secret Service is handling these threats.


On the international front, Iran is facing scrutiny for its staggering surge in executions. Since the death of Mahsa Amini in 2022, which sparked massive protests, the country has seen an 80% rise in executions. The Iranian government appears to be using harsh punishment to suppress dissent, a move that has been widely condemned by human rights organizations. The crackdown has intensified since early 2024, with over 400 executions recorded this year alone, painting a grim picture of Iran’s internal political climate.


In more positive news, India has secured an incredible $386 billion in funding to bolster its green energy initiatives. This financial boost is part of the country’s effort to more than double its clean electricity capacity by 2030. With such a large commitment, India is solidifying its role in the global transition to renewable energy, positioning itself as a leader in tackling climate change.


SpaceX continues to make headlines with the successful return of the Polaris Dawn crew, marking another milestone in commercial space travel. Led by billionaire Jared Isaacman, the mission achieved the first commercial spacewalk and ventured the furthest from Earth since NASA’s Apollo program. As private companies like SpaceX push the boundaries of space exploration, we are witnessing a new era of discovery, one where commercial ventures play a central role.
