 | Thursday, July 3, 2025 | | Good Morning! On this day in 1775, George Washington formally assumed command of the Continental Army in Cambridge, Massachusetts, taking charge of an untrained, underequipped militia and beginning his role as commander-in-chief in the fight for American independence. Yesterday, we let you know about our editor-in-chief, David, who underwent surgery on Monday, and your response was unbelievable. So many of you responded with prayers, hugs, and heartfelt messages.

Trump alleged the interview was deceptively edited to favor Harris during the presidential campaign. The settlement funds will go to Trump's future presidential library, not to him personally, and Paramount will not issue an apology. As part of the agreement, 60 Minutes will release transcripts of future interviews with presidential candidates after they air, with necessary redactions | Rapper Diddy Convicted on Two Counts Rapper Sean "Diddy" Combs was convicted Wednesday on two counts of interstate prostitution, capping a high-stakes, seven-week federal trial in New York that featured graphic testimony from ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura. A jury cleared him of the more severe charges—racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking—thereby avoiding a potential life sentence. Prosecutors alleged Combs ran a coercive criminal enterprise, but jurors weren't persuaded he trafficked women. He now faces up to 20 years behind bars and remains entangled in multiple civil lawsuits over alleged sexual misconduct. | Stocks Reach Record High on Vietnam Deal The S&P 500 hit a record high Wednesday after Trump unveiled a trade deal with Vietnam, imposing a 20% tariff on imports while giving U.S. goods zero-tariff access to Vietnamese markets. The deal also includes a 40% tariff on transshipped goods, targeting trade route abuses by countries like China. Nike shares jumped 4% on the news, given its deep manufacturing ties to Vietnam. Meanwhile, Trump ruled out a deal with what he called "spoiled" Japan, citing its refusal to import U.S. rice and cars, setting the stage for tariffs up to 35% when a temporary pause expires July 8.
