The US Federal Circuit has granted a rare initial en banc hearing for an extremely important case: 2 career immigration judges are challenging their firing under “Article II” without cause & in defiance of Civil Service protections. 1/2 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

I was involved in Iran issues in the first Trump administration. This “deal” could be the most humiliating in U.S. diplomatic history. Hundred of billions in exchange for a “promise” we already had. Pathetic.

Trump's trade war has been struck down in court. Twice. So now we're on version three. Same trade war. Better lawyers. Worse economics. This week's Diving In: newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/better-law...

*TRUMP: IF IRAN DOESN'T DO MOU, THAT'S `OK', START PROCESS AGAIN after all, it's about the friends we made along the way

Not to be too heavy handed, but this evil shit is exactly what racists used to defend segregation and Jim Crow. They would breathlessly assert the laws were fair and treated everybody equally and Black people only got mad about them because of "outside agitators."

Lots of cases probably coming tomorrow which means lots of pain. #notacourt

I presented hundreds, maybe thousands of cases to grand juries as a local, state and federal prosecutor. Most prosecutor understand the awesome power and responsibility that is. These lawyers should be prosecuted if they behaved this way, and disbarred.

No company should be above the law.

He has no idea what his people have actually pencilled on his behalf and expect him to sign on Friday. They likely want his signature on it before he finds out what he's signed.

What the hell did we sign??

THESE POS THINK WOMEN ARE DISPOSABLE WHEN THE TRUTH IS, THEY ARE...

sir, it's Vlad on line one for you *TRUMP: WILL TAKE A LOOK AT HELPING UKRAINE WITH US MISSILES

Donald Trump is breaking all of his promises, and he thinks you're too stupid to notice.

The New York Post splashed "LOVEBOMB" across its front page Wednesday, joining the Morning Joe panel in calling Trump's Iran MOU a complete capitulation that left Iran a stronger regional power than before the war began.

Fox's Brian Kilmeade threw Vance under the bus Wednesday, suggesting the antiwar VP was the wrong person to negotiate the Iran deal, as Rubio, Hegseth, and Ratcliffe all reportedly expressed doubts about Iranian compliance.

A cornered Trump snapped at reporters in France Wednesday, insisting his Iran MOU 'is not final' while threatening to resume bombing if Iran misbehaves, as leaked details showing $300B in sanctions relief enrage his own base.

He didn’t specify that the US would be the ones surrendering.

CONGRESS NEEDS TO CUT OFF THIS TEAT...

A side-by-side comparison shows Obama's JCPOA cut Iran's uranium 98%, capped enrichment, kept sanctions, cost zero American lives and millions in oversight. Trump's 2026 deal: no enrichment cap, lifted sanctions, 15 dead, 543 injured, $2.2 trillion global cost.

EVEN HIS EMPLOYEES KNOW...

KINDA EMBLEMATIC OF MUSK'S SPACE X FUTURE...

An important part of being a law-enforcement official is knowing when to keep your mouth shut. Kash Patel is so eager to take credit for arrests that he keeps making announcements prematurely, this time reportedly before all suspects were in custody. www.ms.now/news/kash-pa...

NEW: Trump is still angry about the Supreme Court's tariffs ruling. How mad will he get in the next couple of weeks as the justices gear up to issue more rulings on his key agenda items, including his plan to curb birthright citizenship? On what's to come: www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

When we will realize Russ Vought’s science quackery is just as bad as RFK’s science quackery? USDA could not get the screwworm facility up and running because OMB held it up to satisfy “budget” concerns, www.politico.com/news/2026/06.... Literally no-one asked for OMB to become Science Czar.

Trump says Iran won't ever have a nuclear weapon (just the infrastructure to build one). But one thing is undisputed, the Iranians are getting $300 billion to buy more arms from Russia, thereby funding Putin's War on Ukraine and setting the stage for more war in the Middle East.

Yesterday, #SCOTUS “rescheduled” President Trump’s cert. petition in one of the civil cases he lost to E. Jean Carroll for the *fifteenth* time. Today’s bonus issue of “One First” explains how we got here—and why one or more of the justices may be purposefully trying to delay the Court’s review:

Neither of those are new things. Extreme polarization and hyper partisan outrage media can be traced as far back as the ancient times. This is like pinning for a simpler time like the 1959s with rose colored glasses that completely misses how bad that time period actually was for a large group

⚡️Almost 70% of Ukrainians expect Zelensky to be replaced after war, poll shows. This marks a notable rise from 23% in 2023, as Zelensky's presidency enters its seventh year, reflecting a broader public demand for change across other branches of government as well.

NEXT CONGRESS NEEDS TO STOP THIS TAP...

This isn’t a negotiation. Pay the fees and also turn over the evidence and also get investigated for criminal contempt.

But, we shouldn’t have to speculate. This is literally what discovery is for and they apparently think they can pay their way out of it. No.

I would not be surprised in the least to learn that there is a evidence of direct WH or Cabinet pressure

I’m telling you, there is blood in this water. It should be in the news every day.
