Trump again claims victory in Iran. He’s claimed victory before, but now he has a so-called “agreement” with Iran. It looks like a terrible failure. Let me break it all down for you. 👇 https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-non-victory

Release the Jack Smith transcript.
Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel. "Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

Embracing the sun today. This Egyptian terracotta depicts Harpocrates as a solar deity emerging from the lotuses on the banks of the Nile along with Isis-Thermouthis (Renenutet). Possibly linked to the start of the annual flood in July, it’s also perfect for the solstice 🏺 #Egyptology AncientBluesky

Our 1787 Constitution became law 237 yrs ago today when NH ratified it June 21, 1788, because Article VII made that new Constitution binding in all 13 states once the 9th ratified it, superseding Article XIII of the Articles of Confederation, which had impossibly required unanimity for every change.

There is no substantive difference between a government shutdown and what Republicans are already doing and intend to do in the future. The only thing that’s changed is that the GOP can now claim to have bipartisan assent for their wave of mutilation.

This is excellent and worth a watch and share. Tonight has been a turning point in our party. Those that don’t recognize that do not deserve the power voters awarded them.
