Judges hear arguments on Texas law that will regulate content of books distributed to public school
SUMMARY: A panel of judges is considering a new state law that regulates the content of books distributed to public school districts. The law is currently blocked from being enforced while the courts determine if it violates free speech protections. House Bill 900 seeks to remove inappropriate books from school libraries by requiring vendors to rate materials, but opponents argue that the law is vague and overly broad. The law also requires parental consent for students to read certain books. The case is being closely watched by organizations fighting against censorship in schools and public libraries, and legal experts expect a lengthy process as the judges work through the constitutional arguments.

Was “big boy” press conference enough to save Biden?
SUMMARY: President Biden addressed his leadership capabilities during a news conference after the NATO Summit, where he had both positive moments and some stumbles, such as mistakenly referring to Vice President Kamala Harris as “Vice President Trump.” He seemed more comfortable discussing serious foreign policy issues and downplayed concerns about scaling back his schedule. While some Democrats were frustrated, feeling his performance bought him more time rather than solidifying his re-election bid, Biden is now focused on engaging in more direct campaigning. Meanwhile, the Republican National Convention looms, with uncertainties surrounding former President Trump's VP announcement adding to the suspense.
FOX News Sunday's Shannon Bream talks about Joe Biden's “big boy” press conference on Thursday and why some Democrats are frustrated that it didn't go worse.
