Iran announces that the funeral for the late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei will begin on July 4th, a date noted for its coincidence with the American Independence Day.

A New York Times investigation by Julie Turkowicz questions the Trump administration's use of an 18th-century law to deport 238 Venezuelan men. The report claims only a small fraction have confirmed links to the "Tren de Aragua" gang, and that the "rubric" used to identify members—based on tattoos and dress—is flawed.

San Francisco and Berkeley canceled official Fourth of July fireworks displays, citing reasons ranging from budget savings to COVID-19 precedents.

### UN Secretary General Guterres, Global Boiling, Climate Alarmism
