A jury found former gang member Dwayne Davis guilty of orchestrating the 1996 murder of Tupac Shakur. The Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to continue construction on a White House ballroom, ruling that the National Trust for Historic Preservation lacked standing to sue. Tropical Storm Edwards is expected to bring significant flooding and wind to Texas, particularly the Houston area. Additionally, Army Secretary Dan Driscoll resigned, and researchers presented a study on creating edible cookies from plastic waste using genetically modified yeast.
