Good morning! It’s Daniel de Visé with your Daily Money.
Heading into this week's GOP convention, Meta said it would lift restrictions it placed on former President Donald Trump’s Facebook and Instagram accounts as he makes another run for the White House.
The social media giant said the change would allow Americans to hear “from political candidates on our platforms,” Jessica Guynn reports.
Trump’s accounts were reinstated in January 2023, but he has been subject to greater scrutiny and stricter penalties than other users.
Here's what's at stake if Trump breaks the rules.
Gen Z can't pay for college
Fall tuition bills for the upcoming academic year are arriving in mailboxes this month, but only 4% of Gen Z students say they’re fully funded for the entire school year, Medora Lee reports.
As of June, 90% of college-bound Gen Z students said they don’t yet know how they’ll fully pay for school, according to a poll of 9,097 students by application site ScholarshipOwl.
Here are more findings from the survey.

Mac and cheese is a comfort food that rarely fails to please. With National Macaroni and Cheese Day passing on Sunday, it's a good time to salute the heavyweight champ of boxed mac and cheese: Kraft Mac and Cheese.
The idea of combining pasta with cheese dates back to 160 B.C. Rome, Mike Snider reports. The earliest known recorded recipe bubbled up in Northern Europe in 1769, a few decades before President Thomas Jefferson served it at an 1802 state dinner.
In 1914, the J.L. Kraft & Bros. Co. built its first cheese manufacturing plant and made 6 million pounds of cheese to feed soldiers during World War I.
And here's when mac & cheese really took off.
