Places like @LosRanchosNM remind us who we are. Recently, we spoke with Mayor Lawrence Rael and the Agri-Nature Center about preserving our agricultural heritage, supporting local farmers, and protecting open spaces. And yes—our office’s community garden plot is officially in full swing! Now the question is: what should we plant next?! 🥬🥕🍅🫑🍓🍇🍉

- Donald Tusk Prime Minister of Poland: "It is Russia that has rejected every credible peace proposal. Ukraine did not start this war, and Ukraine is not an obstacle to peace. No one should pressure President Zelensky to make territorial concessions. We must pressure Russia to end its aggression. The free world must remain united. Any division in support of Ukraine is a gift to Moscow and a risk to our own security.” Just wow, thank you for your support 😉 🫡

🚨 BOMBSHELL! NYT exposes a terrifying plot. The Trump administration secretly planned to suspend habeas corpus and deploy the military on American streets to crush protests. They plotted to strip citizens of their right to see a judge before being jailed. Pure fascism!

- Giorgia Meloni Prime Minister of Italy: "The war of Russian aggression against Ukraine tells us exactly this: that faced with those who would drag us back to the time of wars of domination and neo-imperialist ambitions, reason can still prevail. We are here to reiterate that Russia must stop its aggressive policy Russia can restore peace to Ukraine by withdrawing from the neighbour it invaded... Russia could easily restore peace at any time by withdrawing from the illegally occupied territories" Great woman 🫡

Who's paying for Trump's MAGA-fied Freedom 250 festivities? Major corporate donors include Lockheed Martin, ExxonMobil, and Palantir. And YOU — the taxpayer!

There is a very common playbook leaders use when they fear they are going to lose an election. I break down how President Trump is following that authoritarian playbook.

Pete Hegseth fired her. Now she's running for Congress. Nancy Lacore, a retired three-star Navy vice admiral, has advanced to a June 23 Democratic primary runoff in South Carolina's 1st District - the House seat Rep. Nancy Mace is vacating to run for governor. Lacore was abruptly dismissed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last August, part of a wave of senior military removals on Aug. 22, 2025. She has called her firing "without cause." To be clear about where this stands: Lacore hasn't won anything yet. She's headed to a runoff against attorney Mac Deford on June 23 to decide who becomes the Democratic nominee. The winner of that contest moves on to November for a long-shot run at the seat - which the Cook Political Report rates as solidly Republican. But the storyline writing itself is hard to miss. A career officer pushed out by the sitting Defense Secretary is now asking voters to send her to Washington, where she'd have a say over the very Pentagon that showed her the door. Her campaign leans directly into that history - framing the dismissal as exactly the kind of accountability gap she wants to challenge from inside Congress. Mace, meanwhile, is stepping up to a statewide race, leaving one of the most Republican-leaning seats in the state suddenly without an incumbent. It's an uphill climb in a district drawn to stay red. But a fired admiral on the ballot is the kind of race that makes people pay attention.

There may be an end to the war in Iran. We’ll see in the details, but let’s be clear: we never should have been at war with Iran in the first place. Mike Rogers? He cheered Trump on. My goal is to fight for Michiganders. His goal is to cheer on Trump.

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. 👇 robertreich.substack.com/p/t…
