Introducing McDonald's newest menu item: the Daily Double cheeseburger
McDonald's has a new double burger coming to its menu: the Daily Double.
The Daily Double, available now nationwide, is made with two beef patties, a slice of American cheese plus shredded lettuce, slivered onions, mayo and two tomato slices. The burger had been available in limited markets including Chicago, Miami, and Seattle, but will be available nationally through 2025, the company said.
Next month, on July 22, the Daily Double will join McDonald's McValue Meal Deal options, served with a 4-piece order of Chicken McNuggets, small fries and small soft drink ($6 or $7; pricing depends on your restaurant). That menu still includes the $5 Meal Deal.
The burger is now appearing in the McDonald's app, where you can also get deals including a free medium order of fries with a $1 purchase in the app every Friday through the end of 2025.

Here are nutrition details on McDonald's new Daily Double burger, according to the restaurant chain.
What is the difference between a Daily Double and a McDouble?
The Daily Double has a few different characteristics than the McDouble sandwich, which is currently on the menu. The McDouble has pickles, ketchup and mustard and can be ordered as a Bacon McDouble, too.

Bessent calls on Congress to scrap ‘revenge tax' from Trump bill after G7 strikes deal
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent asked House and Senate Republicans on Thursday to scrap the so-called 'revenge tax' on foreign investments from their versions of President Trump's sweeping tax bill. In a post on X, Bessent said he asked GOP lawmakers to strike Section 899, which would have imposed a tax of up to 20 percent on investments from countries with economic policies deemed unfair to U.S. businesses, from their legislation. Bessent said the provision was no longer necessary after the U.S. and its partners in the G7 reached a 'joint understanding … that defends American interests.' Developing

White House: No Imminent Plans for Refilling Strategic Petroleum Reserves
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Trump administration has no imminent plans to replenish the country's Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters during Thursday's briefing. The SPR stands at its lowest level since the 1980s after significant releases under President Joe Biden, and the price of crude oil is hovering between $65 and $70 a barrel after dropping by an average of $10 a barrel earlier this week. Why It Matters The decision not to refill the emergency reserve is significant for U.S. consumers and energy security. The SPR's depleted status limits the government's ability to intervene during supply shocks or price spikes, potentially leaving American families and industries more exposed to global oil market volatility. The administration's focus on domestic production aims to reduce reliance on international supply but raises questions about preparedness for unforeseen crises.

When asked by reporters if this would prompt the administration to try and refill the strategic reserves, Leavitt said she was not aware of any "imminent plans" to do so. Instead, she said the administration would continue with its plans to tap into the nation's natural resources, continuing its slant towards more domestic output as a means of self-sufficiency. "This president and our Department of Energy have tapped into our resources here," Leavitt said. Oil prices have remained largely stable over the past six months at around the mid-to-high $60 a barrel for various crude oils. Some feared that the U.S. strikes in Iran and the war between Iran and Israel might cause prices to jump. Initially, oil rose by about $10 a barrel, but then the price returned to its previous norm. The price of oil was nearly $20 more per barrel at the same time last year, with Brent Crude priced at $86.24 a barrel, WTI Crude priced at $82.81 a barrel, and Murban Crude at $87.44 a barrel. The United States' Strategic Petroleum Reserve reached its lowest inventory since the 1980s in July 2023, with a little under 347.5 million barrels under the Biden administration. Biden replenished some of those losses and left around 393.5 million barrels in the SPR. The Trump administration has added around 3000 barrels to that reserve by March 2025. The reserve hit its peak in 2011 with around 726.5 million barrels, when the authorized capacity was at 727 million. The diminished reserve is a direct result of drawdowns initiated by the Biden administration in a bid to soften consumer fuel prices during previous market volatility, according to Reuters. What People Are Saying Karoline Leavitt, White House spokeswoman, stated: "There's no imminent plans to do that from what I understand, but as you have seen with the plummeting of oil prices in this country, it's because this president and our department of energy have tapped really into our resources here and we have an increase in supply." What Happens Next The Trump administration indicated it would continue relying on expanded domestic energy production to address market demands and has not provided a timeline for when or if the Strategic Petroleum Reserve would be replenished.

White House, senators eye September deadline for crypto framework
A White House adviser and two key senators said Thursday they are now hoping to pass legislation laying out oversight of the crypto industry by the end of September, pushing back an earlier August deadline. Senate Banking Chair Tim Scott (R-S.C.) offered up the new timeline for market structure legislation at a fireside chat alongside Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) and Bo Hines, executive director of President Trump's Council of Advisers on Digital Assets. 'I want to set a timeline … of seeing the market structure completed before the end of September,' Scott said Thursday. 'I think that is a realistic expectation.' Lummis, who serves as chair of the Senate Banking subcommittee on digital assets, seemed prepared to meet the new deadline, saying they hope to put out draft legislation before Congress leaves for its August recess and hold a markup in September. Hines also confirmed the timeline, adding in a post on X, 'As stated today, we are committed to getting market structure done by the end of September. Period.' The Trump administration and GOP leaders had previously been aiming to pass both market structure and stablecoin legislation before the August recess. The market structure legislation seeks to split up oversight of the digital asset market between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), while stablecoin legislation aims to create a regulatory framework for the dollar-backed cryptocurrencies. After the Senate passed its stablecoin bill, known as the GENIUS Act, last week, Trump urged the House to quickly send the measure to his desk without major changes. However, his push runs counter to an effort by some in the industry and Congress, who hoped to tie the stablecoin and market structure bills together amid concerns that a second lone crypto bill could lose momentum. 'I've been very clear that I think the president's mandate of moving GENIUS Act immediately to his desk is in the best interest of the American people,' Scott said Thursday. 'What they're concerned about is not getting market structure done fast enough,' he added. 'And I believe that we can do both in a very time-sensitive manner, and that is why I've committed to a deadline that will be reached.'
