Trump’s legal team has re-filed its
$10 billion lawsuit over a Wall Street Journal story alleging that he had sent a “bawdy” letter to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epsteinin 2003,
after a Florida judge had dismissed the case last month.
The move restarts a bombshell case that pits the US president against one of his key media allies,
Rupert Murdoch.
A spokesperson for Trump’s legal team called the case,
which also names the Murdoch-owned Journal publishe…

There is little doubt that Putin is entering the most challenging period of his long rule.
Interviews with several people in the orbit of the Russian leader, as well as sources in the Russian business world and western intelligence officials, paint a picture of
an isolated leader surrounded by an elite that is becoming rapidly disillusioned,
both with the faltering war in Ukraine and the economic downturn at home.
“There’s definitely been a shift in mood among the el…

Robert Reich here.
I need to share with you one of my biggest worries about this year's all-important midterm elections.
Twenty years ago, the best way to communicate with voters was through TV, radio, and newspapers
—and Democrats were pretty good at it.
But everything has changed. A majority of swing voters now get their news from social media, podcasts, and YouTube.
And on these platforms, Democrats are getting absolutely steamrolled.
4 of the top 10…

US military services, including the air force, army and navy,
reinstituted flu vaccine requirements for new recruits earlier this week
after defense secretary Pete Hegseth removed the mandate at the end of April.
Military leaders have reportedly been working for weeks to reestablish the vaccine mandate,
even before the Lackland outbreak sickened at least 275 people and hospitalized four.
One recruit, Keon McDaniel, died earlier this month after experiencing a m…

Five months after the United States and Israel started a historically unpopular war against Iran that was going to supposedly last weeks,
the fighting has refused to resolve in victory, defeat or peace.
Iran’s Supreme Leader had been killed in the opening strikes,
ceasefires broke down,
and the strait of Hormuz has been closed and re-opened.
For voters interviewed across the country, while the damage may be distant, the residual effects have shown up

We’ve been dealing with the climate as an isolated, almost linear concept,
where it’s a problem with a fix.
But not a single nation stuck to the Paris agreement.
People are getting solar panels, but we’re all using more carbon-emitting fossil fuels as well
– our habits aren’t changing.
We’re still trapped in the mindset that caused the problem in the first place:
believing in infinite growth, and that we don’t have to change our ways of being.
A ci…

Donald Trump is pushing the longtime vaccine opponent and current health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr to be more aggressive on cutting vaccines in the US, according to reporting from the Wall Street Journal.
Trump has a long record of anti-vaccine statements,
but the White House recently put a hold on vaccine changes after polling indicated they were a losing issue in the midterm elections.
Kennedy, the secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services, recently…

It does not disrespect or diminish American skill and courage to note that the Iranian military was more effective
— and American strikes perhaps less effective
— than we were led to believe.
As more information filters out, the picture gets cloudier and cloudier.
Not only was Iran able to immediately and decisively close the Strait of Hormuz,
it’s now clear that the Iranian regime inflicted significant damage on American bases in the region and significant dam…

Seattle police recovered a modified machine gun and an untraceable “ghost gun” from the scene of a mass shooting at a food festival this weekend that left three people dead
– including one of the suspects
– and at least five more wounded, police chief Shon Barnes said Tuesday.

When thousands of immigration agents flooded Minnesota earlier this year,
a loose network of neighbors sprang into action.
They fed each other.
They got kids to and from school safely.
They tracked the surge that tore through their communities.
After organizing, block by block,
to monitor Donald Trump’s extraordinary crackdown on their state,
the same neighbors are shifting their focus to a different threat.

“Enthusiasm for the billionaire tax is unlike anything we have seen before,”
Debru Carthan, vice-president of the union sponsoring the measure, said during a Thursday-evening press conference.
“The billionaire tax will be on the November ballot and we intend to win.”
