“.. the mood is one of pervasive fatalism that the U.S. will not prove an honest broker. ‘It was a bad deal the first time around. They rolled over us and they would do it again,’ an EU diplomat said.” @politico.com www.politico.eu/article/eu-t...

"...the European Union, the world’s largest trading bloc and most ambitious effort at supranational governance, a political experiment that’s turned a historically fractious continent into a unified whole." Video on... www.gzeromedia.com/ian-explains...

#GVerse #Pathetic: James Comer was left speechless when asked if he read the GOP’s bill. He hadn’t. And it’s worse. Watch his face when he realizes the bill he’s defending erases Congressional oversight and gives #Taco47 unchecked power. He voted for it anyway.

Trump loses again as judge tosses another executive order www.rawstory.com/trump-wilmer...

What’s really driving Trump’s economic policies? It’s quite simple. More for the rich. Less for everyone else. Watch.

Whatever you do right now, do NOT Google or search social media for “solicitor general asteroid.” You’ll regret it. You’re welcome.

The people of Missouri made it very clear: They wanted abortion rights (at least until fetal viability). Alas, the Missouri Supreme Court doesn’t seem to be inclined to listen.

My latest from @newscientist.com about the future of public access to weather data

New in PN: Trump's attack on Harvard hampered by his inability to STFU "The Trump administration would be getting slapped down in court even if the president & his minions *didn’t* constantly announce their intent to violate laws. But their incessant chest thumping does make things go a lot faster"

Trump is planning a military parade in DC on June 14, but the biggest story of that day will be the actions of we, the people. We are coming together to reject strongman politics and corruption. www.nokings.org #DemsConnect #DemVoice1 #PINKS

DUPE AND SCOOP. Trump’s ICE DUPES migrants to come to court, gets their cases dismissed, so they can SCOOP them up and deport them without due process. youtu.be/T8uAkSVEcKA

"In the end, we think it’ll cost three to five per cent more to produce some beers. But we can’t pass price increases on to customers. We’re already a premium beer, and higher prices could push us off the shelves. We’ll have to absorb the costs."

Casar: "The only way to push back on this is for Democrats to be really clear that if we win back a majority, we aren't just going to let bygones be bygones. We have to go and investigate who paid Trump, who paid Musk, who made money off of these pardons because that is really serious."
