Despite months of talks, both Russia and Ukraine appear to have barely shifted from their initial negotiation positions, with Moscow demanding huge concessions from Kyiv while calling their opponents “delusional” for not taking up the offer. The second attempt at face-to-face Russia-Ukraine talks on Monday ended much the same as the first, three weeks before, which concluded with little progress towards peace, but a prisoner-swap agreement was reached. The lead-up to this week’s talks had been dominated by speculation over what Russia’s demands would be, given that they had refused to publish them ahead of time, as Ukraine had done with theirs.

The Champlin Park Rebels girls' softball team controversially reached the Minnesota State Championship for the first time in history on Wednesday night - thanks in part to their transgender pitcher. Marissa Rothenberger threw a complete game and then hit two doubles as the Rebels narrowly beat White Bear Lake 3-2 for their historic achievment.
'She’s always clutch,' Champlin Park coach Bryan Woodley was quoted as saying by TwinCities.Com. 'I think she’s the best centerfielder in the state. She’s just a great all-around player.'
Ukraine’s surprise June 1 drone attack on Russia’s strategic bomber fleet has crippled a significant portion of Russia’s nuclear strike capability.
It has also become the latest obstacle in President Donald Trump’s path to resolving the three-year war.It remains to be seen exactly how much the Ukrainian drone attack, orchestrated by Ukraine’s Security Service and codenamed “Spiderweb,” will impact the efforts to facilitate a broader peace.Nevertheless, Trump said the surprise attack was a focal point of a Wednesday phone call he had with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
In a post on his Truth Social account following the call, Trump indicated the Russian president is in no rush to settle the conflict.

In one of the most laughable attempts at political reinvention in recent history, former Joe Biden press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre announced on Wednesday that she is leaving the Democratic Party. Not coincidentally, she's also releasing a book all about how much of a fair-minded independent she is, willing to speak the truth in any situation, encouraging Americans to think "outside the party lines(snip)."Alright, are you back with me? Because, shock of shocks, Jean-Pierre and the Biden White House have already been caught in a lie surrounding her new book.
In the latest act of judicial overreach, a rogue lower court judge ordered the Trump administration to restore federal prisoners’ access to transgender-related “treatments” and accommodations on Tuesday.
Writing for the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, Judge Royce Lamberth, a Reagan appointee, granted petitioners’ request for a preliminary injunction on the Trump administration’s policy ensuring that the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) expends “no Federal funds … for any medical procedure, treatment, or drug for the purpose of conforming an inmate’s appearance to that of the opposite sex.” The left-wing Associated Press once described Lamberth as “among the toughest judges”
The Florida Board of Governors (BOG) barely rejected the University of Florida’s (UF) presidential candidate with a 10-6 vote during Tuesday’s meeting. UF’s Board of Trustees (BOT) had voted unanimously for Santa Ono, who was the only candidate they pitched to the BOG. Yet if just three BOG members switched their vote, the state where “woke goes to die” would’ve hired its own woke university leader.
In 2023, Ono listed a “Diversity Equity Inclusion (DEI) 2.0” as one of his presidential priorities at the University of Michigan. He also promoted an “Inclusive History Project” that strives to make “‘reparations’ based on race ‘in areas such as admissions, financial aid,
Cut through all the chaff and countermeasures deployed by the professional DC system intended to convolute and keep Trump and Putin at arm’s length, and you can see the outline of what we have discussed on these pages for several months.
There are geopolitical benefits to President Trump and President Putin having a strategic alignment. However, the elements against them are massive, entrenched and highly Machiavellian.
President Trump shares the following message after a phone call with Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin.
Article III Project founder Mike Davis, on Monday's broadcast of Steve Bannon's "War Room" podcast, declared that the old guard of the Republican party legal establishment is gone.
"President Trump doesn't need the D.C. legal establishment anymore, especially after the D.C. legal establishment abandoned President Trump during four years of lawfare," Davis told Bannon. "They haven't said much about the judicial sabotage that's occurred since January 20th. I would say to the D.C. legal establishment, go to hell."

Senators Richard Blumenthal (U-DC) and Lindsey Graham (U-DC) have scheduled a delegation of Ukraine officials to come to the Senate tomorrow and help organize the pro-Ukraine narrative. The Senate is debating the anti-Russia sanctions package and key players are coordinating retention of the Ukraine payment system.
According to Politico all 100 senators have been invited to the lobbying/narrative engineering meeting, and almost all of them are likely to attend. From obvious indications, including Blumenthal and Graham supporting the recent Ukraine attacks against strategic Russian airbases, it would appear the Senate is prepared to dispatch President Trump’s efforts to organize a ceasefire.

Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy threatened Wednesday to pull federal grants for California’s High-Speed Rail Authority after it spent nearly $7 billion in taxpayer funds over a decade and a half without laying a single foot of track.
In a more than 300-page report, Duffy detailed the missed deadlines and stretched budget for the long-running project — and gave the Golden State’s high-speed rail office 37 days to respond or lose out on around $4 billion in grants.
“This report exposes a cold, hard truth: CHSRA has no viable path to complete this project on time or on budget,” he said.
She moved to the United States with a dream of studying medicine to transform lives. Then her father was charged with attempting to take them in connection with a fiery assault on pro-Jewish protesters in Boulder, Colorado.
Now Habiba Soliman, daughter of Boulder attack suspect Mohamed Sabry Soliman, faces deportation along with the rest of her family.
The family, originally from Egypt, moved to the U.S. from Kuwait. Habiba Soliman recently graduated from high school, but her aspirations were upended when her 45-year-old father was charged with a federal hate crime and 16 counts of attempted murder related to the attack
A federal judge on Thursday blocked the Trump administration from deporting the family of Mohamad Soliman, the individual suspected of firebombing a gathering of Israel supporters in Boulder, Colorado, on Sunday.
Judge Gordon P. Gallagher’s ruling stated that the administration cannot remove Soliman’s wife and five children from the District of Colorado or the United States pending a ruling from the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. “[T]he Court finds that deportation without process could work irreparable harm and an order must issue without notice due to the urgency this situation presents,” the judge wrote.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested the family earlier this week
Former Biden White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre revealed Wednesday she was registering as an independent and announced a forthcoming book about her time in the tumultuous administration.
Jean-Pierre, a longtime Democratic Party operative, is urging Americans to step outside harsh party lines in her new book, "Independent: A Look Inside a Broken White House, Outside the Party Lines," according to the book's description. The description also says the former Biden press secretary didn't come to the decision about leaving the party lightly.
"Until January 20, I was responsible for speaking on behalf of the President of the United States," she said in a statement, according to the AP.
Facing a federal investigation into his use of an autopen to sign executive actions, former President Joe Biden insists he was in control of the White House for the past four years.
“I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didn’t is ridiculous and false,” Biden said in a statement on Wednesday.
President Donald Trump declared his predecessor’s last-minute pardons void early this year after the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project discovered the pardons were signed by a mechanical autopen rather than by the president’s own hand.

Democrat Congresswoman Becca Balint shared her perspective that immigrant labor in America serves a rather undesirable purpose.
If we don't have avenues for people to come here legally to work or to build a home here—I'm gonna be really crude right now. We're not gonna have anyone around to wipe our a**es because we don't have enough people."
The comments came while she was speaking to constituents at a town hall in Newport, Vermont. Balint is also proudly the first congresswoman for the state of Vermont. [Video]
Contrary to the claims made by Congresswoman Balint, avenues for legal immigration already exist in the United States.
The Republican megabill to codify President Donald Trump’s domestic policy agenda would add $2.4 trillion to the national debt over the next decade, according to an analysis from the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.
The CBO estimates the “Big, Beautiful Bill” would lower tax revenues by $3.7 trillion and cut spending $1.3 trillion, creating $2.4 trillion in new debt. The non-partisan analysis factors in last minute changes to the House Republican version of the bill, including stricter Medicaid work requirements and a higher State and Local Tax Deduction (SALT), a top demand for New York lawmakers.
An Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesperson noted a vessel carrying activists, including Greta Thunberg, was sailing toward Gaza, saying that Israel has experience “and will act accordingly.” Thunberg, 22, set sail from an Italian port on Sunday with 11 fellow activists from the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), aboard a vessel delivering a symbolic shipment of aid to Gaza, according to The Times. “We are prepared for this case as well,” said Brigadier General Effie Defrin, the IDF spokesperson. “We’ve gained experience in recent years and will act accordingly.”
