## Summary

Fox News' morning newsletter rounds up its top stories, led by a piece on Donald Trump making a pre-midterm move that reportedly bucks the usual historical pattern for a sitting president's party. Other headline stories include an ongoing National Transportation Safety Board investigation into a fatal Amazon cargo plane crash and a powerful hurricane making a rare direct strike on Hawaii, alongside continued escalation between the US and Iran over its nuclear programme.

Further items cover US politics ahead of the midterms, including Trump headlining a Republican convention, contested Senate primaries in swing states, and a trade dispute with Canada centred on planemaker Bombardier. The digest also touches on America's national debt surpassing $40 trillion, a large pork product recall over listeria concerns, sport, entertainment and lifestyle stories, and links to opinion columns and podcasts.
