Lutnick: "The big issue is you can't fight a war without steel and aluminum production in America. If you don't have the ability to make your own steel and aluminum, you can't fight a war. And that is what the president is doing."

Lee Jae-myung of the Democratic Party of Korea secured a landslide victory in South Korea’s 21st presidential election on June 3, winning a strong mandate and control of the National Assembly. What lies ahead for President Lee? @victordcha.bsky.social @andysaulim.com write:

Hegseth has ordered that the USNS Harvey Milk, named for the iconic gay rights icon, be renamed. Harvey Milk served as a diving officer and later as a diving instructor for four years in the U.S. Navy. That this would happen at the start of Pride is intentional. www.military.com/daily-news/2...

If they had probable cause, they could detain them criminally. If necessary to obtain info they could get GJ subpoenas or material witness warrants. But this is just hate. Will they do this to the family of every white supremacist who commits a terror attack too? www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/u...

NEW: The Republican National Committee filed a motion Tuesday to intervene in ongoing federal litigation against President Donald Trump’s executive order on voting, which aimed to restrict voter access nationally under the guise of election integrity. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ticket sales and subscription revenue at the Kennedy Center have fallen sharply since Trump made himself chairman. Single-ticket sales were down roughly 50%. Subscriptions revenue down 82% for theater. (NYT)

🚨 Trump administration cancels Biden-era guidance protecting emergency abortions. This is not pro life. It is a direct threat to women’s lives. Revoking protections abandons patients in crisis. No politician should stand between a doctor and lifesaving care. www.usatoday.com/story/news/h...

More tariffs, it must be Tuesday. TACO Tuesday.

Jeffries: Yes Joni, the American people know that at some point in their lives, they are going to pass away. The cause of death should not be Republican cruelty

The deficits and debt Republicans create only bother them when a Democrat is in the White House. They use deficits as a tool to pretend we're broke to cut programs working American rely on and transfer more money to the top. Look up "starve the beast" strategy. #TrickleUp

The Department of Homeland Security is NOT making our country safer. They're ignoring immigration laws. They're handcuffing moms, zip tying children and disappearing them without hearings or due process. They're weaponizing DHS to purge people from the population. They're hiding their faces.⬇️

There is more than sufficient evidence to open a federal hate crime case under 18 USC 249. This is precisely the type of crime the Shepard-Byrne ACT was passed to permit the feds to prosecute. Important to watch what DOJ does here. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

ICE is conveniently leaving out key details in their press conference. Marcelo Gomes’ father came here legally on a student visa in 2012. Marcelo was only 5. They’ve been trying to gain legal status. His dad was accused of speeding. Marcelo was detained by ICE on his way to volleyball practice.

“This is very much connected to the rise of authoritarianism that we’ve seen across the country,” said the executive director of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center. “They can’t win fairly, so they’re trying to rewrite the rules to get their way.”

1. Florida banned cities from lighting up bridges rainbow colors for Pride. So the people of Jacksonville did it themselves using flashlights and gels. They opened the drawbridge to block them. So they marched to a different bridge. The latest from S. Baum. Subscribe to support our journalism.
