🌅 EPM MORNING BRIEFING — July 24, 2026 The 5 stories you need to know today. 1. 🔴 [REINO UNIDO / ESTADOS UNIDOS] TRUMP WEIGHS MASSIVE IRAN STRIKE AS OIL HITS $100 A BARREL With crude crossing the psychological $100 threshold, Trump is reportedly weighing a large-scale military strike against Iran — and Congress can't agree on who holds the trigger. The confluence of spiking energy prices, a stalled bipartisan war powers vote in the House, and a parallel Saudi nuclear deal raising proliferation alarms makes this the most volatile geopolitical flashpoint of the week. 2. 🔴 [ESTADOS UNIDOS] TRUMP-SAUDI NUCLEAR DEAL SPARKS PROLIFERATION FEARS AMID GULF ESCALATION Westinghouse — resurrected from bankruptcy — is now the centerpiece of a Trump-brokered nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia, a deal critics warn could accelerate a Middle East nuclear arms race at the worst possible moment. The timing, as Iran tensions peak, has nonproliferation experts sounding the loudest alarms in years. 3. 🟠 [CHINA] CHINESE COAST GUARD INJURES PHILIPPINE MARINE IN DISPUTED WATERS Beijing's forces physically injured a Philippine marine during a confrontation in the South China Sea, escalating an already tense territorial standoff. The incident tests U.S. mutual defense commitments to Manila and signals China's willingness to use direct force against a treaty ally of Washington. 4. 🟡 [ESTADOS UNIDOS] TRUMP'S ELECTION BILL AND 50% CANADA TARIFFS STALL IN HIS OWN SENATE Two of Trump's signature domestic moves hit a wall — his sweeping election legislation was blocked by Republican senators, while his threatened 50% tariffs on Canadian goods are drawing fierce pushback from workers and industries on both sides of the border. A president at odds with his own party on two fronts simultaneously is a story worth watching. 5. 🟡 [ESTADOS UNIDOS] MEASLES SURGES AS VACCINE COVERAGE COLLAPSES FOR VULNERABLE FAMILIES A preventable disease is making a dangerous comeback as vaccination rates erode among the country's most at-risk communities. Public health officials warn the U.S. is approaching outbreak thresholds not seen in decades, with systemic gaps in access driving the collapse. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📌 Editor's Note Today's briefing is defined by a single thread: the world is stress-testing the limits of American power — militarily, diplomatically, economically, and at home.
