TOP NEWS | On today’s Daily Signal Top News, we break down:
The terrorist behind the 9/11 attack will not receive the death penalty.

The leader of Iran ordered a strike against Israel.

A number of Fortune 500 companies that publicly condemned the Jan. 6 Capitol riot have remained silent following the July 13 attempted Trump assassination.
President Joe Biden’s administration’s rewrite of Title IX takes effect.
Why has the Trump campaign struggled to adapt to the new realities of the presidential race? Ravi breaks down how Biden’s departure has impacted the way the election is framed, why voters may be more likely to view Vice President Harris as the change candidate, and what both campaigns need to prioritize to appeal to moderate voters.
Then, Sal Khan, founder and CEO of Khan Academy, joins the show to discuss his new book, Brave New Words: How AI Will Revolutionize Education (and Why That's a Good Thing). Ravi and Sal dive into the ways AI can change the way we learn, how AI platforms like Khanmigo have already enhanced school models like homeschooling by providing comprehensive curricula, and why artificial intelligence will support teachers, not replace them.

Nasa's Perseverance Rover has found a fascinating rock on Mars that may indicate it hosted microbial life billions of years ago. Abigail Allwood, exobiologist at Nasa’s Jet Propulsion Lab, is on the team scrutinising the new Martian data.
And a couple of newly discovered, approximately 500 year old fossils from the ‘Cambrian explosion’ of complexity caught presenter Roland Pease’s eye this week. First Martin Smith from Durham University tells us about a tiny grub that is ancestor to worms, insects, spiders and crustaceans. Then Ma Xiaoya, who has positions at both Yunnan University in China and Exeter University in the UK, tells us about a spiny slug that was also discovered in a famous fossil site in China.
And the first sightings of the landscapes on the underside of the ice shelves that fringe Antarctica. These float atop the ocean around the frozen continent but effectively hold back the glaciers and ice sheets on the vast landmass. Their physical condition therefore is pretty critical in this warming world, Anna Wåhlin of Gothenburg University tells us.
