A bright halo surrounds the nearly full Moon tonight. Banks of cloud are to the left and below the Moon, with a pine tree directly below the Moon’s position in the sky.

45 degree halo around the Moon tonight here, with the faint image of a 22 degree halo closer in, thanks to ice crystals high in the atmosphere #Moon #Halo #astronomy #astrophotography

Any country that doesn’t produce its own oil keeps getting more and more incentive to accelerate the shift to renewables, even if it couldn’t care less about climate change.

We’re at war, and Trump still hasn’t given a coherent explanation for why the US, alongside Israel, attacked Iran or what the endgame is.

Finding out he was making party cameos at Mar-a-Lago while this was unfolding is nuts.

Bush lied, but at least he made a case to Congress before war with Iraq.

Sometimes you just have to quote Churchill: β€œThe statesman who yields to war fever must realize that once the signal is given, he is no longer the master of policy but the slave of unforeseeable and uncontrollable events.”

Running your war from a private club for millionaires β€” ahead of a $1 million-a-plate dinner β€” is a choice.

Trump ripped up the Iran nuclear deal and created this mess. Now, he's putting servicemembers in harm's way with no clear plan and no Congressional approval. The American people deserve answers β€” and Congress needs to do its job.

Russia's response to Trump and Israel destroying their military ally in Iran could not be any weaker. Russia is the weakest they have been in decades and everyone in Russia knows it now.

It's disgusting that the MAGA GOP side of Congress are all spineless traitors.

Find your balls, Dipshits. Our country's survival depends on it.

Epstein Received Sensitive Military Intelligence Amid Gates Foundation Polio Campaign in Pakistan Justice Department emails show that Epstein helped the Gates Foundation gain access to the Talibanβ€”and received confidential reports and intelligence on Pakistani military operations.

The fallout for Gates from his connection to #Epstein continues. This week, he was scheduled to be one of the headline draws at India’s high-profile AI summitβ€”before the Microsoft founder abruptly announced he was dropping out of the event. open.substack.com/pub/dropsite...

ICE has detained this high schooler for 10 months. Here’s what he and his classmates want you to know Dylan Lopez Contreras, a senior at Ellis Prep academy, was taken by ICE in May. The Guardian invited him and five of his classmates to share their lives and dreams

Roger, 17, sophomore. When I found out that Dylan was arrested it was early in the morning, around 9.15am – more or less. We had been doing a history assignment.

My reaction was shock. I didn’t know what to say or do, I couldn’t process it yet. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
