JUST IN: Oil prices surge in the wake of US strikes in Iran, with US oil futures jumping 3.6% Sunday to about $76.47 per barrel

Confirmation they did not destroy the uranium stockpiles. Gift link. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/22/u...

“‘This is an incomplete strike …. If this is all there is, here’s what left: the entire stockpile of 60% uranium, which was stored at Isfahan in tunnels that are untouched.’” www.cnn.com/2025/06/22/p...

Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization? Rubio: That’s irrelevant Host: No, that's a key point Rubio: No it’s not… Forget about intelligence

Welp.

Yes, much like the 9/11 terrorists were only at war with our landmarks, not America Does _anyone_ in the Trump administration hear how deranged they sound?

Reporters are being weirdly loath to say it, but a consensus seems to be building that one way or another the Iran War will blow up in Trump's face. Apparently no one can confirm that Iran's nuclear capacity was destroyed, and now it has _every reason_ to rush headlong into building nuclear bombs.

Trump wore his campaign hat in the situation room forever associating MAGA with the bombing of Iran

Incredible stuff www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Iran's foreign minister says he doesn't know how "much room is left for diplomacy" and warns his country has to respond to US strikes on nuclear sites. Follow live updates: cnn.it/43U27wx

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

Donald Trump’s Favorite Lie: ‘Two Weeks’ — 7 Years of Promises, Still Waiting

Facing the possibility of losing control of the House next year, Republicans are weighing aggressively redrawing congressional districts in Ohio and Texas in the hopes of ousting several longtime Democratic lawmakers. WHEN REPUBLICANS CAN’T WIN, THEY CHEAT. www.cnn.com/2025/06/20/p...

We went from UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER!!! to “we’ll see what happens in two weeks.”

“A horrible display of waste… rotting fruits and vegetables… store after store closed… if the ice raids continue be ready for even bigger sticker shock when you go grocery shopping…” 🍎 🥕

Must hurry home for Taco Tuesday and another $1.5M waste of taxpayer $$$ on golf.

⚡️Kyiv hit by Russian drones and ballistic missiles, over a dozen injured. At least nine people were injured in the city’s Sviatoshynskyi district, while 11 others were wounded in the Solomianskyi district, including a woman in serious condition, local officials reported.

WELP!!! 🤷‍♂️

MyPillow founder Mike Lindell has lost a defamation case against a former employee of Dominion Voting Systems.

Trump’s cuts to DEI-related equity research grants at the National Institutes of Health have been found both discriminatory and illegal. Even with the judge's spirited proclamation (an 84-year-old Reagan appointee, no less), there is no indication that Trump will abide. https://trib.al/KJe69GD

BREAKING: Shooting suspect Vance Boelter was arrested by authorities late Sunday evening in Sibley County, according to a high-ranking state official.

Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

MINNESOTA: “Shelter in place order in a 3 mile radius… white male, black body armor…” The 2 Democratic lawmakers’ spouses were also shot.

BREAKING: Two Democratic lawmakers are now in grave conditions after being shot, along with their spouses, in what appears to be a targeted assassination in Minnesota. I have the latest here: open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III. Sound familiar?

absolutely horrifying: "Minnesota state senator John Hoffman in Champlin and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman in Brooklyn Park were reportedly shot in their homes by a gunman impersonating a police officer."

The head of the EPA announced that the agency is proposing to scrap two major regulations that limit air pollution and planet-warming emissions from coal and gas-fired power plants.

CNN’s Jason Carroll was zip-tied and escorted away—for reporting the news. But they claimed he wasn’t under arrest? Why are they shooting rubber bullets at and silencing journalists? We still have a First Amendment.
