500 vendors. One summer day. Don't miss this one 🛍️
Good morning, Jackson County. It's been a big week for headlines — Meta is staring down a jaw-dropping $1.4 trillion in potential penalties over how its platforms affect young users, NASA's telescope rescue mission is stuck on the launchpad, and the U.S. Men's Soccer team bowed out of the World Cup with a tough 4–1 loss to Belgium, missing the quarterfinals for the first time in 24 years. Meanwhile, a Walmart price-cut claim, a Planned Parenthood funding update, and a major court hearing in the Charlie Kirk assassination case round out a packed news cycle.
On a lighter note, the French 500 Flea Market is just around the corner on July 10 — a perfect summer outing. Fresh property listings are up in Real Estate, and take a moment to remember neighbors we've lost in this week's In Remembrance.
