Texas Floods Tragic, BBB in Effect, ICE is Big Winner, Obama Holiday Bummer, Football in 3 Weeks, Mahomes is Fat, R's All Stars

   What was supposed to be a celebratory holiday weekend turned tragic in Texas with some of the most horrific flash flooding we've ever seen.  The stories of loss are just heartbreaking and the stories of heroism are remarkable.    The Big, Beautiful Bill is in full effect and there are plenty of reasons to cheer.  But the biggest winner may be ICE which gets an incredible boost of support in this legislation.    Obama threw a wet blanket on Independence Day with a dark, dire, cynical post about our great holiday.      We have an NFL pre season game three weeks from Thursday... let's go.  And as the Chiefs get ready to open camp in a few days, it's clear quarterback Patrick Mahomes will have to play his way into shape after vacation photos of him shirtless hit the tabloids.      The Royals have won 3 of their last 4 but lost another game toward the wildcard.  And we'll tell you who made the All Star team.
