## Resource

Two massive earthquakes rock Venezuela, killing dozens and trapping thousands under rubble. U.S. President Donald Trump faces a Republican revolt – including a shouting showdown with Senator Bill Cassidy – over his Iran deal. Millions of Americans are cut off from food stamps under his sweeping tax and spending cuts. And as Europe swelters in a record heatwave, air-conditioning becomes France’s latest political hot potato. Listen to the Morning Bid podcast ⁠⁠here⁠⁠.
