Trump’s 50 % tariff on copper, pharmaceuticals announced July 9
Trump’s back with a list and a steely plan,
Tariffs rising on copper and pharma lands.
Seven nations caught in the storm,
He says it’s trade, but it’s far from the norm.
Semiconductors pay the toll,
Fifty percent—it’s out of control.
August brings a sharper knife,
He’s playing world power with economic strife.
Supreme Court lifted injunction on mass federal layoffs
The court said yes to a deeper cut,
Federal jobs in a tightening rut.
The block is gone, the doors swing wide,
Thousands now on the layoff side.
They said it’s legal, said it’s fair,
But families brace for thinning air.
A country shifting in the name of reform,
As the safety nets are torn.
Camp Mystic losses, flash flood details
The skies broke open, the sirens cried,
Over a hundred in Texas have died.
Flash floods came without a sound,
Now water drowns the battleground.
A hundred more can’t be found,
In neighborhoods where hope once crowned.
Nature’s wrath, or human flaw?
It’s time we reckon with what we saw.
Over 250 million workers striking on July 9
Across the sea, a billion rise,
In India’s heat, beneath burning skies.
Workers march with a common plea,
For labor rights and dignity.
Banks are closed, the coal runs cold,
A general strike, fearless and bold.
Two-fifty million take the street,
Demanding justice, not elite deceit.
July 9 likely shortest day: about 1.3–1.6 ms
Today the Earth spun fast and strange,
The clocks are caught in a cosmic change.
One point six milliseconds gone,
Time slipped through before the dawn.
The scientists scratch their heads in awe,
Blame the moon and shifting core law.
A negative leap second on the way,
Is time itself starting to fray?

In this futuristic arms race.
A world on fire, a phone in hand,
We digitize the promised land.

This was the story of July nine, twenty twenty-five, done.
This was created with the use of AI.
