NEW: Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton appears to have used an address where he did not live while voting in six elections in the past two years — despite warning voters that “it is illegal to misrepresent your residence on election records.” with @texastribune.org

This sounds like a challenge. A badge of honor for all those who get a letter from ICE. Should the commentariat have a leaderboard? The Kristi Noem Dead Dog Memorial Cup

Take the over.

Oh no. Not like this.

There’s so much grift. The worst people in the world are making millions off of insider trading, among other things. This time, the rest of us got to benefit from the corruption. Take it. This is as good as it gets.

Cape Verde’s World Cup heroes have landed back home, greeted by saluting airport staff and hundreds of fans 🇨🇻 Today is also the 51st anniversary of the country’s independence. Have a day, Cape Verde 💙

Happy 250th to this country, whose constitution literally says no “presents” from foreigners!

This an official Vatican photograph of Leo at Lampedusa, Italy - one of the world’s heaviest migrant sites - where he went this morning to pray for migrants who died at sea. This is after turning down the offer to come to the United States.

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Screaming! Screaming!

“.. The next day, Trump posted that it was a ‘GREAT TIME TO BUY!!!’ before announcing a partial tariff retreat that helped send the S&P 500 up roughly 9.5% in one of its best days on record.” @cnbc.com www.cnbc.com/2026/07/02/t...

Dos a Cero

This is some PAC 12 referring. A bad call that is made up by a series of bad calls spiraling to an exciting finish

At the pool with the kids and the DJ has fired up. Soulja Boy bangs. I like where he’s headed this afternoon.

It’s incredibly sad that a 25 year old died of flu—a vaccine-preventable illness that can be deadly The big anti-vaccine push by the MAGA and MAHA crew is a deadly one; I don’t know what the final tally of deaths will be, but even one death is too many www.expressnews.com/news/article...

First they came for me. Like, right away. I tried saying "Don't you have some trade unionists or gypsies or something to deal with?", I tried giving them names, but they weren't interested.

Excellent work everyone. Incredible stuff

The detention of Sister Leticia “Letty” Ugboaja, who was taken while she was heading to Sunday Mass in McAllen, comes amid growing concern that the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown is extending beyond people accused of violent crimes. bit.ly/4xWSTMQ

Deconstructed anything. Stop it. Don’t make me figure out how to combine the elements for the best taste - you do it. That’s why I’m here.

O Canada! What a shot.

Things I never thought I would type: look at how they greeted the Algerian team arriving back at the DoubleTree in Lawrence, Kansas

Is better that he was offsides when he missed that shot?

Yikes: "We have a fentanyl vaccine, and we lost funding for the Phase I clinical trial because of the current administration’s misalignment on vaccines. […] Now we have a bunch of very expensive vials that are just sitting there, ready to go in somebody’s arm."

The Reflecting Pool contracts are just one example of a massive increase in “urgency” exception spending this year exempted from normal review. In a normal year, this would be $3-6 billion. So far in 2026, it is $28 billion, mostly in homeland security. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/what-the-r...

Kagan makes sure that Trump’s gutter racism — and the majority hand-waiving it away — gets into the record.

Going through clips & photos from Monday’s public testimony at the Texas SBOE regarding the new proposed reading lists and social studies standards, and WOW. Here are some of the most remarkable moments. This is going to be loooong thread:

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

Mohammad Taher clutched the frail body of his two year old son as the toddler died in his arms from malnutrition. His food rations in Myanmar stopped due to USAID cuts apnews.com/article/myan...

This is incredible. Cheering wildly for a goalie we didn’t know two hours ago. Love this

Wild screaming! Omg.

This is a wild half of soccer. Goalies flying around all over the place.

L to R: Chris Richards: biracial kid from Alabama who speaks about black history and has tattoos of MLK, Ali, and Obama Sergiño Dest: Dutch-Surinamese, emigrated to Brooklyn as a kid, naturalized Fola Balogun: born in Brooklyn to vacationing parents, raised in UK but CHOOSES to play for USA

A Black man with the surname Freeman scored for the USA on Juneteenth in a home World Cup match.

ICE says it is removing all detainees from “Alligator Alcatraz.” After wasting $1.5 billion on the facility and facing numerous lawsuits, the agency says the detention center is unsafe for hurricane season and all detainees are being transferred elsewhere.

Several colleagues and I have a big new feature out today: An inside look at the global peptide trade, a billion-dollar black market in experimental and potentially dangerous drugs that RFK Jr. is pushing to make legal. Gift link: www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

Beautiful. Absolutely incredible

The guardrails continue to fall. It is functionally impossible to regulate a bank owned by the president. Yet it can imperil the entire banking system if it runs off the rails. For heaven's sake, this has to be stopped.

Quintessential Trump: In 2025, Trump axed the program to combat New World Screwworm, stating that they had "saved" $1.5 million a year. In 2026, the Trump announces a $1 billion emergency program to combat the Screwworm outbreak. $1 billion would have funded the old program for 667 years.

The Scottish anthem crowd shots are classic. Every stereotype. All of them.

Happening soon at the Texas GOP: A panel on “stopping the Islamization of Texas” with the RAIR Foundation and Chip Roy. Yesterday there was a panel on Sharia — meaning we’ve now had one panel for every percent of the state Muslims account for.

Can you pass out from irony alone?

This is LA. Are you telling me this is the best we could do?

There are lasers for offsides while the throw ins have about a 15 yard optional range.

O CANADA!

Lots of empty seats in this opener.
