International Atomic Energy Agency: We are investigating reports of an attack on the construction site for a planned nuclear power plant in Darquwin, Iran.

Lindsey Graham, even in death, last week made all four Sunday shows. A full dead Ginsburg.

The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve “has fallen to the lowest since 1983. … “Supplies at the country’s commercial storage hub in Oklahoma are just above what’s considered to be ‘tank bottoms,’ the minimum level required for normal operations.” www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Someone please pay me to cover nothing but rural festivals I’m having THE TIME OF MY LIFE at the Elkhorn Rib Festival

I try not to overdo this bit but ... my man is begging for it. Let's go.

You don't engage in that kind of ethnic cleansing through peaceful and lawful individuated assessments. If you even aspire to that level of population transfer, you expect things like mass detention facilities and the transformation of ICE into a terrorist paramilitary.

Something I talked about repeatedly in 2024: 20 million people, to say nothing of 30, would be the largest forced population transfer in human history, larger any of the three post-WW2 transfers (partition of India, expulsion of Germans, partition of Palestine) or the post-WW1 Balkan cases.

I thought the war was over???

Larry David calls Trump’s White House UFC event “a travesty”: “I was embarrassed to be an American.”

Heckler repeatedly yells 'pedophile' at Trump during his speech in Pennsylvania and gets removed

Trump appears to be completely passed out asleep during his 3pm Oval Office announcement

oh so now everyone is against a lil afternoon nap all of a sudden???

This is the kind of stand-up behavior we need right now. Let the racists know we’re not having it.

Zelensky's open letter to Putin is a very powerful statement of how disastrous the unprovoked war against Ukraine has been for Putin and for Russia. It reads like a message to the rest of the world (the White House included) about Ukraine's successes and Russia's failure.

Zelensky sets out Russia's and Putin's personal weakness, proposes setting a date for negotiations involving him and Putin, with European involvement, seemingly conditional on moves to return abducted Ukrainian civilians and stolen Ukrainian children. www.president.gov.ua/en/news/vidk...

More than half of the publicly identified donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion, according to a report from a government watchdog group.

Every day, he announces some intention to usurp national symbols for himself. It doesn't end the war in Iran, lower gas and grocery bills, expand housing options, create decent-paying jobs, or lower utility bills. The GOP is going to get wiped out in Nov because they tied everything to this man.

While Russia bombs apartment buildings and murders civilians daily, the US will play a hockey game in Russia to “melt the ice between us.”

On Monday, Stuart Adams demanded that Kevin O’Leary shrink the Stratos data center’s project area by 75%. Today, O’Leary said he is willing to cut it in half. We want to know: Is there any amount of downsizing to the project area (or the project itself) that you would find acceptable?

Hegseth plans to cancel Tomahawk missile sales to Germany because he's afraid Putin will disapprove, Politico says. Actually it's more clear evidence of US realignment with Putin. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

This is so infuriating. I don't want a president who play for Team Putin.

Energy Secretary Chris Wright: "Solar is irrelevant in the winter" (this, dear reader, is false)

New details are available about the ballroom fundraising contract, which shields donors’ identities, excludes the White House from conflict of interest protections & was disclosed only after a lawsuit & a judge’s order, according to records obtained by WAPO.

CA Democrats: Check it out! Becerra is rising in all of the latest polls, while Steyer is spending millions to annoy the entire state. I think voters are getting tired of the billionaire carpet-bomb campaign: nonstop TV ads, endless mailers, and a nasty campaign style that’s starting to backfire.

This is how I felt when I discovered tRump would be president again on November 5, 2024 and I have alternated between fury and fear for my children’s future. After these elections, tonight is the first time I’ve felt like this country may survive tRump. #Pinks #ProudBlue #StrongerTogether #RESIST

SpaceX is a boondoggle led by a racist asshole and the American space program is worse off for being intertwined with it

LOL last night Stephen Colbert spent an hour hosting public access "Only in Monroe"

Love it: the night after he was kicked off of CBS for good, Stephen Colbert hosted a public access show in southeast Michigan.

Just wanted to let you know that the IRS has audited every president annually for decades now to ensure there was no corruption and the reason you didn't know that was because only one president found that to be a problem

Russian troops near Pokrovsk are detonating on paths mined by Ukrainian sappers and drone operators. Visual control footage from the 14th Ivan Bohun National Guard Brigade shows Russian forces hitting hidden barriers. #Ukraine

Fun new detail from a source: The Trump administration appears to be paying the bond for these agents. It also appears to be paying for their private defense attorneys.

Bhattacharya’s legacy The US had a “world-class Ebola lab in Frederick, Maryland, with the NIH,” designed to develop vaccines & treatments. The lab would normally be swinging into action. “But that lab was shuttered last year, with staff laid off abruptly”😢 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/m...

Of course I don’t want any harm to come to Ivanka Trump. I’m also not surprised that top Iranians leaders, whose family members her father had killed, disagree. We’re the ones who chose to light this particular fire.

I remember Trump bragging in 2016 about how he would target the family members of our enemies. Play with matches … see, there’s a reason you don’t do that, at least not on purpose.

This is actually really funny. Putin and his commanders are delusional. Trump is one of the people responsible for this. By not pressuring Russia, he is allowing its leadership to remain delusional and continue the war

PabloReports: Ted Cruz called you a parasite and disparaged your work as a bartender. AOC: I think it’s funny that he’s been taking a government paycheck for 23 years but has the audacity to criticize someone who has come from a family that had to work their way up and earn their place here.

Australia’s first Trump Tower has been scrapped just three months after launch, CNN reports. The developer admits “the brand in this country has become toxic to Australians.” The 91-storey Gold Coast project will still go ahead, just without the Trump name.

“In choosing to withhold three of the four interviews from the Epstein files, the DOJ has granted Maxwell potential blackmail on the sitting president* of the US… Maxwell has held this leverage over Trump since…2021… Trump’s DOJ… let her keep it.” @sollenbergerrc.bsky.social @emptywheel.bsky.social

The new acting Secretary of the Navy, Hung Cao, who is replacing John Pelan, is a theocratic loony who thinks California is infested with witches. The only thing the Trump administration shows *any* aptitude for is filling its job openings with unqualified kooks.
