CNN 5 Things
Jul 4, 2025

President Donald Trump is expected to sign his “big, beautiful bill” today. He also says he’ll speak Ukraine's President after a disappointing conversation with Russia’s leader yesterday. Moscow is recognizing the Taliban’s government in Afghanistan. State lawmakers say they were turned away from inspecting Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center. Plus, a high-profile boxer has been arrested just days after fighting a social media influencer.
