Texas will have hosted most of its 16 World Cup matches by the time you read this. More out-of-towners are due in Dallas in September when Republicans hold their inaugural midterm convention . And the Dallas suburb of Frisco is attracting local residents and tourists alike after the July 1 opening of the Universal Kids Resort , Universal’s first aimed specifically at young children. And speaking of Frisco ... The Fine Line Mark Hill was sworn in this week as Frisco’s mayor, a city riding a 600% surge in population this century — and a boom in the tax base of more than 2,200% over that period . The roster of local businesses now includes Wall Street money managers, fintechs and consumer brands, drawn by good schools for employees and public safety. “It creates an environment that people notice and that people want to move to,” Hill said. Hill, a lawyer and former school board president, takes over a city that is now home to almost 250,000 people. It has been a sports magnet, boasting the headquarters of the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys and the NHL’s Dallas Stars (and practice facilities for both teams). PGA of America moved its HQ to the city in 2022. FC Dallas of Major League Soccer plays at Frisco’s Toyota Stadium. The National Soccer Hall of Fame is there as well. But the economic transformation from sleepy North Texas town to small city to busy office-retail-and-residential hub goes deeper than professional athletics. Asset manager TIAA projects adding 2,000 new jobs at its Frisco campus by the end of 2030. Oracle, Fiserv, T-Mobile and Keurig Dr Pepper all have major local offices. Hill is aware of the stakes. The city chose wisely at key junctures in the past 40 year...

Former Olympian David Hearn outside Superior Court in Washington, July 9, 2026. Daniel Heuer | Bloomberg | Getty Images Three-time U.S. Olympic canoeist David Hearn pleaded not guilty on Thursday to a felony charge for allegedly ripping up sealant in the National Mall's Reflecting Pool in Washington. Hearn's attorney afterward blasted prosecutors for obtaining an indictment against the 67-year-old, calling him a political "scapegoat" for the Trump administration's controversial handling of the renovation of the roughly 2,000-foot Reflecting Pool. "Mr. Hearn pled not guilty because he is not guilty," the attorney, Norm Eisen , told reporters outside of D.C. Superior Court. "If Mr. Hearn can be charged with a felony for touching the Reflecting Pool, every American is at risk, and every American should be alarmed about this prosecution," Eisen said. "It is not a crime to touch the Reflecting Pool to touch water in the United States of America." Supporters of Hearn who gathered outside the court carried signs, including ones that said "Trump always blames others for his failures;" "The Deflecting Pool: Never admit failure;" and "Drop the Trumped Up Charges."

Hearn has said he put his hand into the pool to see what a partially detached piece of blue liner from the bottom felt like. But U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro claimed he had intentionally damaged a 2-square-foot piece of sealant as she announced July 2 that a grand jury had indicted Hearn on a felony charge of destruction of property.
