Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart dies at 90
SUMMARY: Televangelist Jimmy Swaggart, once a widely followed Pentecostal preacher whose ministry earned millions, died at age 90 after recent poor health. Rising from humble beginnings in Louisiana, Swaggart built a vast ministry with TV broadcasts and music, drawing millions by the late 1980s. His career collapsed after being caught with prostitutes in scandals during the late 1980s and early 1990s, leading to his defrocking and diminished audience.

Senate passes Trump tax bill as Vance breaks 50-50 tie
SUMMARY: Senate Republicans narrowly passed President Trump’s massive tax and spending bill, 50-50, with Vice President JD Vance breaking the tie.

The bill includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, permanent extensions of 2017 rates, Medicaid and food stamp reductions, and $350 billion for border security. It also rolls back green energy credits, sparking Democratic warnings. The bill now returns to the House amid ongoing tensions, with critics highlighting the bill’s large deficit impact and coverage losses.
