Clown confirmation.

This is one of two reasons why we cant get anything done in congress.

M. Johnson is the other reason, he is such a master bullshitter and talks a great game, he can't blow his cover.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) was unable to confirm President Donald Trump’s claims that Iran’s nuclear facilities had been “completely and totally obliterated” by U.S. strikes when pressed by CNN on Tuesday.

AG Bondi: Over 1,000 Iranian Sleepers in US

Attorney General Pam Bondi said this week that her Department of Justice (DOJ) is on "high alert" on the heels of American airstrikes this weekend targeting Iranian nuclear development sites.

The comment came during a House Appropriations Committee session in Washington on Monday.

As reported by the website ZeroHedge, Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, asked Bondi about the number of Iranian nationals who may have entered the United States illegally. The issue is of great concern, with hostilities flaring in recent days between Israel and Iran. The two nations have traded attacks, with Israel intent on decapitating Iran's development of materials used in nuclear weapons, though a ceasefire is, for the moment, in place.

"Over 1,000 have entered our country, and I can tell you we are on high alert, and everyone is looking at that very closely," Bondi said.

As reported, she went on to suggest that the FBI is on guard against possible Iranian sleeper cells within the U.S. She drew a line between those cells and Iranian nationals who entered the United States across the southern border under the Biden administration.

This Iranian is lucky — not because we caught him, but because the loaded 9mm pistol he had hidden in his pants when we cuffed him didn’t go off.

We arrested Iranian national Behzad Sepehrian Bahary Nejad June 22 because:

📌He came to the United States on an F-1 student visa Dec. 9, 2016, and was arrested the next year for trying to suffocate a family member.

📌His wife claimed he threatened her and her family in Iran. She was so terrified of him that she got a restraining order against him.

📌The University of Texas terminated his student status in 2018, and the following year, he was ordered removed.

📌He attempted to reopen his case, but the immigration judge denied his motion.

He’ll be staying with us pending his final removal proceedings.

Here's an arrest and sentancing!

Former Santa Cruz County Treasurer Sentenced For Stealing Over $38 Million From County

The former Santa Cruz County treasurer, Elizabeth Gutfahr, has been sentenced to 120 months in prison after pleading guilty to Embezzlement by a Public Official, Money Laundering, and Tax Evasion.

The 63-year-old Gutfahr’s prison sentence is to be followed by three years of supervised release. She was also ordered to pay approximately $51.8 million in restitution to Santa Cruz County and the United States Treasury.

According to court documents, Gutfahr, who served as Santa Cruz County Treasurer from 2012 through 2024, embezzled and laundered approximately $38.7 million by wiring public funds from Santa Cruz County’s account to accounts in the names of fake companies she had created that performed no legitimate business. Gutfahr then used the money to purchase real estate, to renovate her family ranch, to pay expenses for her cattle business, and to buy at least 20 vehicles.

Gutfahr’s 10-year scheme involved approximately 187 wire transfers, which she was able to complete by undermining the two-step approval process required for transfers. Gutfahr used the token of a subordinate Santa Cruz County employee so that she could both initiate and approve the wire transfers. To cover up the scheme, Gutfahr falsified accounting records, cash reconciliation records, and reports of the County’s investment accounts, thereby hiding the millions of dollars that she had stolen from Santa Cruz County.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Robert Garcia elected to lead House Oversight Democrats

The 47-year-old Californian won a first-ballot majority, handily beating more-senior Rep. Stephen Lynch.

California Rep. Robert Garcia will be the next top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee after beating Massachusetts Rep. Stephen Lynch in a 150-63 caucus vote Tuesday.

“We’ll get immediately to work,” he told reporters following the vote. First on the agenda, Garcia added, was meeting with the Oversight Committee staff “to let them know that we’re ready for consistent leadership.”

He then left to attend a previously scheduled closed-door committee interview with Neera Tanden, a former aide to President Joe Biden whom panel Republicans summoned as part of a probe into Biden’s mental abilities.

Serving just his second term in Congress, Garcia has quickly risen through the ranks. He’s currently a member of Democratic Caucus leadership and served as a co-chair of Kamala Harris’ 2024 presidential campaign.

In a contest that had tested House Democrats’ desire to set aside its penchant to reward seniority in favor of promoting younger voices, Garcia had pitched himself to his colleagues as a consensus candidate with managerial experience as a former mayor of Long Beach.

In a previous interview with POLITICO, he called it “premature” to impeach President Donald Trump without buy-in from other Democrats — a contrast with other young progressives who have sought to kick-start the process. And he’s emphasized that the committee under his leadership would do more than probe the Trump administration.

Democrats have been maneuvering for the top Oversight job since April, when Virginia Rep. Gerry Connolly announced he would step aside from the job amid a battle with cancer. He died in May at 75.

For weeks, the race pitted two senior Democrats — Lynch, 70, and Maryland Rep. Kweisi Mfume, 76 — against two insurgent young progressives — Garcia and Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett, 44. Crockett and Mfume dropped out of the race Tuesday after falling short in the Steering test vote.

“If you are going to be in leadership, you need to know that you have a team that is ready and willing to work with you,” Crockett told reporters Tuesday. “It was clear by the numbers that my style of leadership is not exactly what [Democrats] were looking for, and so I didn’t think that it was fair for me to push forward and try to rebuke that.”

New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s decision not to run a second time for the Oversight post and to instead stay on the Energy and Commerce Committee helped open up the field.

Connolly’s race last year against the 35-year-old Ocasio-Cortez was similarly seen as a generational challenge within the caucus. But senior Democrats — including former Speaker Nancy Pelosi — lined up behind Connolly, quashing efforts for a changing of the party’s old guard.

This time, the party’s elders were split in the race. Pelosi never endorsed Garcia, but she had met with her fellow Californian as the contest ramped up and was widely seen in the caucus as a Garcia ally. Behind the scenes, she whipped votes for Garcia, according to a person granted anonymity to describe her private efforts.

“I’m a Californian,” she said as the voting was underway Tuesday. “I’m partial to mayors.”

Some of the most powerful blocs in the party opted to remain on the sidelines. The Congressional Hispanic Caucus endorsed Garcia, who was the sole Latino candidate in the race and will be one of two Latino committee leaders along with Rep. Nydia Velázquez (N.Y.). But groups like the Congressional Black Caucus, New Democrat Coalition and the Congressional Progressive Caucus did not make endorsements.

Although Garcia downplayed the generational undertones of the race, other Democrats privately see the decisive votes in both the leadership-aligned Steering panel Monday and the caucus vote Tuesday as a potential turning of the tides in the party’s longtime adherence to the seniority system in choosing caucus leaders. Democrats opted to challenge several committee leaders last year and believe more challenges could come in the future.

Garcia, 47, won a first-ballot majority after winning the backing of the caucus’ powerful Steering and Policy Committee on Monday evening.

Review

Open access

Published: 03 October 2022

Why cancer incidence in the Arab counties is much lower than other parts of the world?

Despite the relatively increased cancer incidence in the last few years in the Arab countries, it is still far from the figures reported from Western countries. Several mechanisms have been adopted to explain the significant decreased incidence of cancer in the Arab countries, among them fasting, food full of special recipes filled with spices, significant lower rates of smoking and alcohol drinking, and genetic predisposition. Clinical trials are warranted on a large population scales to study, discuss, and verify such mechanisms.

Such lower figures of cancer in the Middle East, Arab countries could be attributed to several factors and theories:

I-

Fasting

c-

Autophagy

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved lysosomal catabolic technique with the aid of using which cells eighty three degrade and recycle intracellular endogenous and exogenous additives to maintain mobile homeostasis [13].

d-

Slowing cancer growth and promoting cell regeneration

Fasting might also additionally lessen glucose levels within the blood, making it tougher for cancers to grow. Cancer cells feed on glucose, eating it at a far better degree than ordinary cells do. During fasting, one manner cells attempt to preserve strength is with the aid of using making it less complicated for cell membranes to metabolize insulin. This improves insulin’s capacity to get rid of glucose from the blood. Reducing the glucose to be had to most cancers cells might also additionally restrict cancerous growth.

Spices

Arab people in the East Mediterranean region are using a lot of different spices in their food which have an antioxidant and anti-cancer effects:

a-

Turmeric:Turmeric reduces inflammation, which is at the root of many diseases, including cancer. Animal and lab studies show that turmeric can help prevent cancer growth and kill certain cancer cells.Small studies among people with cancer show that turmeric can help improve quality of life [18]. A phase 2 study that combined curcumin and conventional chemotherapy to treat people with advanced colorectal cancer is still ongoing [19].

b-

Cinnamon: Impaired apoptosis plays an important role in the development and progression of cancers. Increased evidence suggests that cinnamon as a therapeutic agent has an anti-cancer effect by affecting a number of apoptosis-related pathways in cancer cells [20].

c-

Cardamom: The compounds in cardamom may help fight cancer cells. Studies in mice have shown that cardamom powder can increase the activity of certain enzymes that help fight cancer. The spice may also enhance the ability of natural killer cells to attack tumors [21, 22].

d-

Saffron: It has selective toxicity against cancer cells, through inhibition of (ribonucleic acid) RNA and (deoxyribonucleic acid) DNA synthesis and increasing apoptosis. Crocin is considered the most important anticancer drug in saffron, which plays an important role in gene expression and apoptosis in cancer cells [23].

e-

Nutmeg, black seed, dill, and sesame seed: Nutmeg compounds inhibits some aspects of the metabolism of cancer cells, by killing malignant cells while preserving normal and healthy cells cell. The compounds contained in nutmeg suppress inflammation by blocking molecular processes such as nitric oxide synthase [24]. Black cumin (Nigella sativa) (NS) is native to the Mediterranean and neighboring countries Pakistan and India. It is included in the lifestyle and daily diet as a spice and preservative. Black seeds have been used for thousands of years to treat a variety of illnesses and illnesses. Over the last 50 years, many scientific studies have confirmed and demonstrated the pharmacological quality of NS seeds. Its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antihistamine, and anticancer [25].

Anon knows that on this board, fasting for health is mentioned a few times however, spices like like Turmeric are not just anti inflammatory, but is coincidentally anti cancer cell and antiphrastic. I tried it for overall gut health for the anti-inflammatory properties and an aquarium tank full of liver flukes, roundworms and biofilm flowed out and I'm only on day 5. I also find it sus that actual photos of the wide variety of parasites are hard to come by online, only scientific illustrations. Only tiktok and occasionally reddit had any pics.

[According to Wikipedia Mamdani has been an American citizen since 2018. Is it too late to deport him?]

Wikipedia

Mamdani entered New York City politics as a volunteer for Ali Najmi's campaign in the 2015 special election for the 23rd district of the City Council.[11][19] In 2017, Mamdani joined the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and worked for the campaign of New York City Council candidate Khader El-Yateem, a Palestinian Lutheran minister and democratic socialist from Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.[11] Mamdani served as the campaign manager for Ross Barkan's 2018 bid for the New York State Senate and was also a field organizer for fellow democratic socialist Tiffany Cabán's 2019 campaign for Queens County District Attorney.[11][23]

Mamdani started to consider himself a democratic socialist after Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign.[23] He is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.[32][39]

In N.Y.C. Mayor’s Race, Mamdani Responds to a Call for His Deportation

Vickie Paladino, a councilwoman from Queens, called Zohran Mamdani a “radical leftist” who hates America, and warned against “future Zohrans.”

June 3, 2025

In his surprising rise to New York City’s top tier of mayoral hopefuls, Zohran Mamdani has battled opponents’ attacks on his inexperience, his leftward politics and his criticism of Israel’s war in Gaza.

But this week, Mr. Mamdani found himself facing a new attack that was both pointed and illogical, when a Republican city councilwoman from Queens called for him to be deported. (Mr. Mamdani is a U.S. citizen.)

The remark by the councilwoman, Vickie Paladino, who is known for her incendiary social media posts, quickly became a talking point in the Democratic mayoral primary race, just a day before the candidates were to face off in their first debate.

Ms. Paladino recirculated a 2019 social media post from Mr. Mamdani in which he said he couldn’t vote for Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont for president in 2016 because he was not a citizen at the time. She was incredulous that Mr. Mamdani was being treated seriously as a mayoral candidate.

“Let’s just talk about how insane it is to elect someone to any major office who hasn’t even been a U.S. citizen for 10 years — much less a radical leftist who actually hates everything about the country and is here specifically to undermine everything we’ve ever been about,” Ms. Paladino wrote on X late Monday evening. “Deport.”

Mr. Mamdani, who is polling second behind former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo in the June 24 primary, soon responded.

Israel Threatened to Kill the Children of an Iranian General If He Did Not Flee the Country

The Washington Post reported that Persian-speaking Mossad agents called over 20 senior officials in Tehran and told them that they and their families would be assassinated if they did not renounce the rule of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, Iran’s supreme leader. Israel launched its first wave of strikes on Iran on June 13, targeting Iranian military leaders and top nuclear scientists.

The Mossad psychological warfare operation doesn’t appear to have deterred Iran, as it fired upon an American base in Qatar after US president Donald Trump ordered his military to attack Iranian nuclear sites over the weekend.

NATO members’ leaders snubbing Zelensky at key summit – Orban

Hungary, the US, Türkiye, Slovakia and others don’t want to formally engage the Ukrainian leader, according to the PM

Several NATO members, including the US, are deliberately avoiding meeting with Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelenskyat the bloc’s key summit in The Hague, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has claimed.

Speaking prior to the gathering on Wednesday, Orban noted that Zelensky would only attend the informal dinner and “will not participate in the NATO summit in any official form,” indicating that “a clear sign that the previous chapter is over.”

The Hungarian prime minister went on to explainthat this is a drastic change compared to previous years, stating that “the Americans, the Turks, the Slovaks, and we have made it clear that we do not want to sit at the same table with Zelensky when it comes to NATO.”

He further stressed Hungary’s continued opposition to Ukraine joining NATO or the EU. Orban has repeatedly warned that Kiev’s membership in any of the blocs would drag the West into a direct conflict with Russia.

Meanwhile, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto noted thatthe 2025 summit would be the first since 2022 where the focus would be not on stepping up support for Ukraine, but on strengthening the bloc’s collective defense.

“With Ukraine’s NATO membership off the agenda, direct confrontation with Russia has been avoided. Rationality has prevailed,” he added.

Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump confirmed that he would “probably” meet with Zelensky on the sidelines of the summit. At the same time, he described the Ukrainian leader as being in a “tough situation,” adding that he “should have never been there.”

In another sign of the simmering tensions between Zelensky and Trump, the Washington Post reported that NATO leaders are “tiptoeing around rifts” during the summit, trying to showcase “a veneer of unity”.

The paper reported that “NATO officials are trying to keep [Trump and Zelensky] apart as much as possible in public— a recognition of Trump’s occasionally volcanic disdain for the Ukrainian leader.”

In this vein,NATO organizers positioned Zelensky far from Trumpduring the official summit photo-op, according to footage broadcast by C-SPAN.

Rubin's First Look: A Sagittarius Skyscape

This interstellar skyscape spans over 4 degrees across crowded starfields toward the constellation Sagittarius and the central Milky Way. A First Look image captured at the new NSF–DOE Vera C. Rubin Observatory, the bright nebulae and star clusters featured include famous stops on telescopic tours of the cosmos: Messier 8 and Messier 20. An expansive star-forming region over a hundred light-years across, Messier 8 is also known as the Lagoon Nebula. About 4,000 light-years away the Lagoon Nebula harbors a remarkable cluster of young, massive stars. Their intense radiation and stellar winds energize and agitate this cosmic lagoon's turbulent depths. Messier 20's popular moniker is the Trifid. Divided into three parts by dark interstellar dust lanes, the Trifid Nebula's glowing hydrogen gas creates its dominant red color. But contrasting blue hues in the colorful Trifid are due to dust reflected starlight. The Rubin Observatory visited the Trifid-Lagoon field to acquire all the image data during parts of four nights (May 1-4). At full resolution, Rubin's magnificent Sagittarius skyscape is 84,000 pixels wide and 51,500 pixels tall.

“Thousands” of migrant children who disappeared after being smuggled across the US-Mexico border under the Biden administration have been rescued from grim fates such as being sex-trafficked to pedophiles, according to Border Czar Tom Homan — who revealed a 14-year-old pregnant girl was found living with adult men just two weeks ago.

In the latest episode of Miranda Devine’s “Pod Force One” podcast, Homan said Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have also located minors who were forced into servitude on ranches and chicken farms, as the agency searches for hundreds of thousands of migrant children unaccounted for during Joe Biden’s four-year illegal alien invasion.

“There were 300,000 missing children under the last administration,” said Homan. “We’ve found thousands of them … We rescued victims of sex trafficking [and] two weeks ago, we rescued a 14-year-old that was already pregnant, living with adult men …

“We rescued some victims of forced labor. We found children working on ranches and chicken farms, not going to school, but enslaved labor in the United States of America …

“Some of the children we found [were] perfectly fine with their families …They just didn’t respond to call-ins [because they] didn’t want to face the consequences of immigration court.”

The number of unaccompanied alien children [UACs] crossing entering the US surged to record levels under Biden, as changes to border enforcement policies incentivized families and smugglers to send minors to America.

More than 500,000 children were recorded entering the country and were placed with sponsors while awaiting immigration proceedings.

A report last August from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General found that the Biden administration lost track of hundreds of thousands of unaccompanied children and placed some with potentially dangerous sponsors who had not been adequately vetted.

Axiom’s Fourth Private Mission Launches to Station Aboard Dragon

June 25, 2025

At 2:31 a.m. EDT, the crew members of Axiom Mission 4 lifted off on the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida to the International Space Station.

Peggy Whitson, former NASA astronaut and director of human spaceflight at Axiom Space, is commanding the commercial mission, while ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla is serving as pilot.

The two mission specialists are ESA (European Space Agency) project astronaut Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary.

NASA will end coverage approximately 15 minutes after launch, following Dragon orbital insertion.

The spacecraft will dock autonomously to the space-facing port of the station’s Harmony module at approximately 7 a.m. on Thursday, June 26. NASA’s live rendezvous and docking coverage will begin at 5 a.m. on NASA+.

Live or Fly a Plane in California? Help NASA Measure Ozone Pollution!

Ozone high in the stratosphere protects us from the Sun’s ultraviolet light. But ozone near the ground is a pollutant that harms people and plants.

The San Joaquin Valley has some of the most polluted air in the country, and NASA scientists with the new Ozone Where We Live (OWWL) project are working to measure ozone and other pollutants there.

They need your help!

Do you live or work in Bakersfield, CA? Sign up to host an ozone sensor! It’s like a big lunch box that you place in your yard, but it’s not packed with tuna and crackers.

It’s filled with sensors that measure temperature and humidity and sniff out dangerous gases like methane, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and of course, ozone.

Can you fly a plane? Going to the San Joaquin Valley? Sign up to take an ozone sensor on your next flight! You can help measure ozone levels in layers of the atmosphere that are hard for satellites to investigate.

Scientists will combine the data you take with data from NASA’s TEMPO satellite to improve air quality models and measurements within the region. Find out more here or email: Emma.l.yates@nasa.gov

German export outlook slips on trade fears – survey

Automakers and chemical firms report sharp declines in sentiment amid ongoing trade uncertainty, according to Ifo

Expectations have worsened among German exporters in June due to uncertainty regarding US tariffs, according to a survey conducted by the Ifo economic institute.

Earlier this year, US President Trump imposed 20% tariffs on EU goods and 25% duties on steel, aluminum, and cars. Brussels prepared retaliation, but most of the new levies were paused for 90 days to allow talks.

A 10% base tariff and targeted 25% duties remain unchanged.

“The tariff threats from the US are still on the table. An agreement between the EU and the US has yet to be reached,” Klaus Wohlrabe, head of Ifo surveys, said in a statement on Wednesday. “This uncertainty is lowering exporters’ expectations.”

According to the report, the mood among export companies has “clouded over,”with the export expectations index falling to -7.4 points in June from -5.0 in May. The index measures how optimistic or pessimistic German manufacturing companies are about their prospects for selling abroad over the next three months.

The trade barriers have raised concerns in German industry,especially the automotive sector, which is grappling with declining sales, growing competition from China, and the shift to e-mobility.Carmakers worry that tariffs could damage their vital export business.

“Companies fear that the growing protectionism around the world will increasingly hamper international trade,” said Wohlrabe.

The decline was most noticeable in the chemical and automotive sectors, where expectations turned significantly negative, the report said.

The US was Germany’s top trading partner in 2024, with bilateral goods trade totaling €253 billion(around $280 billion), according to official data.

In the first quarter of 2025, the country recorded a €17.7 billion trade surplus with the US—the highest among all its partners. This underscores the potential impact of US tariffs. Experts say the uncertainty has led German companies to delay investments, contributing to the shift in export projections.

The new figuresadd to signs that the EU’s largest economy is struggling to build momentum after slipping into a recession last year. Although German GDP grew slightly (by 0.2%) in the first quarter of 2025, weak global demand and uncertainty in trade policy continue to weigh on its economy.

The report follows a grim forecast from the IMF, which also cut Germany’s 2025 growth outlook to zero, predicting it will be the only G7 economy to stagnate this year as its export-driven industries are especially vulnerable to global trade tensions.

NASA Planetary Defense Ignores Rubin Observatory’s Asteroid Hunting Abilities

June 25, 2025

NASA has a Planetary Defense Program. They want to find asteroids that might pose a risk before they pose a threat.

The other day the Vera Rubin Observatory released imagery of a variety of objects including 2,104 previously unknown asteroids discovered in just a few hours by this new instrument.

NASA has ignored the Rubin observatory’s debut while the rest of the world stopped to pay attention. This new NASA OIG report NASA’s Implementation and Management of Its Planetary Defense Strategy ignores Rubin too.

Why is that? More below.

The NASA OIG report says “NASA leads the nation’s planetary defense efforts to address the potential hazards of asteroids and comets impacting Earth.

While the Agency has made significant progress in its planetary defense mission, multiple challenges hinder its ability to fully execute its planetary defense strategic goals.

Further, actions are needed to address the role of ground-based assets in the future as new observatories with more advanced capabilities come online”.

Part of the whole planetary defense thing is identifying hazardous asteroids before they can pose a threat to Earth. That means telescopes – in space and on Earth.

I checked through this report and no mention is made of the Vera Rubin Observatory. Its capabilities were well known before it became operational. In an era of “all of government efforts”.

NASA has still made no mention of the Vera Rubin Observatory despite world wide coverage.Its not a NASA observatory.

Vera Rubin Observatory is a NSF facility – not a NASA facility. Apparently that is why.

Given this prodigious asteroid finding capability you’d think at least NASA Planetary Defense folks would be aware of this demonstrated capability by Vera Rubin Observatory.

I checked the website. No mention of Vera Rubin Observatory. The only thing I could find was after a search with the NASA.gov search engine: “NASA’s Next-Generation Asteroid Impact Monitoring System Goes Online” from 2021.

WHy can’t NSF and NASA work together and cross pollinate their planetary defense and astronomy capabilities better than they have?

ISRO-NASA’s NISAR: World’s First Dual-Band Radar Satellite

Jun 25, 2025

Ahmedabad, Gujarat – In a landmark moment for global space science, the Indian Space Research Organisation’s Ahmedabad-based Space Applications Centre (SAC) and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) have developed the world’s first L- and S-band radar imaging satellite — named NISAR.

The $1.5 billion (₹12,500 crore) satellite is scheduled for launch aboard India’s GSLV rocket this July.

According to a report in a vernacular daily, the satellite, equipped with dual synthetic aperture radars from both nations, is expected to transform Earth observation and geophysical research — with scientists eyeing a breakthrough in the long-elusive ability to predict earthquakes.

Speaking exclusively on the mission, SAC Director Nilesh Desai explained, “Since two types of radars have been fitted, the entire scientific world is watching this satellite.

One of the radar’s waves will reach a meter deep into the ground. For the first time, there is hope that we may be able to predict earthquakes. Until now, we could not.”

This global collaboration was born from India’s early success with radar satellites. Back in 2008, ISRO launched RISAT, India’s first radar satellite.

NASA, impressed with ISRO’s radar imaging technology, proposed a partnership that matured into the NISAR mission, jointly involving hardware, development, and shared scientific objectives.

Under the project, NASA developed the L-band radar, while ISRO built the S-band radar and the satellite bus. India will also manage the launch using its GSLV Mk-II rocket from the Sriharikota spaceport.

Gold-Plated Antenna: Engineering Marvel

The satellite’s most striking feature is its 12-meter (39 feet) diameter gold-plated antenna. Designed using molybdenum mesh and coated in gold to resist corrosion, radiation, and heat, the antenna unfolds once the satellite reaches orbit.

“Deploying such a large, foldable antenna in space is one of the most technically challenging aspects,” said an ISRO scientist involved in the mission.

This high-performance antenna will enable NISAR to capture ultra-precise radar images of Earth’s surface — vital for studying tectonic shifts, ice sheet changes, forest biomass, and agricultural patterns.

SAC Ahmedabad: Quietly Leading India’s Space Technology

While ISRO’s launches from Bengaluru and Sriharikota often capture headlines, it is Ahmedabad’s Space Applications Centre that quietly undertakes many of the agency’s most complex technological challenges.

From radar systems to quantum communication, SAC continues to be the backbone of India’s cutting-edge space R&D.

[The new OBAMA. The new face of the Dem Party.]

A New Political Star Emerges Out of a Fractured Democratic Party

The emergence of Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist, is likely to divide national Democrats, who are already torn about what the party should stand for.

Jun 25, 2025

The national Democratic establishment on Tuesday night struggled to absorb the startling ascent of a democratic socialist in New York City who embraced a progressive economic agenda and diverged from the party’s dominant position on the Middle East.

As elections go, Tuesday’s party primary for mayor was a thunderbolt: New York voters turned away from a well-funded familiar face and famous name, former Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, and in doing so made a generational and ideological break with the party’s mainstream. They turned to a 33-year-old, three-term state assemblyman, Zohran Mamdani, who ran on an optimistic message about affordability and the rising cost of living that has eluded many national Democrats.

What became vividly clear on Tuesday, as votes were counted across the racially and economically diverse neighborhoods of New York, was that Mr. Mamdani had generated excitement among some — though not all — of the traditional pillars of winning Democratic voter coalitions.

Democratic leaders badly want to win over young voters and minority groups in the coming 2026 and 2028 elections — two groups they have struggled to mobilize since the Obama era — but they also need moderate Democrats and independents who often recoil from far-left positions.

“It really represents the excitement that I saw on the streets all throughout the City of New York,” said Letitia James, the New York attorney general. “I haven’t seen this since Barack Obama ran for president of these United States.”

National Air and Space Museum Receives $10 Million Gift From Northrop Grumman

Wed, June 25, 2025 at 7:30 AM PDT

The Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum received a $10 million donation from Northrop Grumman to support the transformation of the museum's building in Washington, D.C.

In honor of the gift, the museum's planetarium will be renamed the Northrop Grumman Planetarium. This leadership support helps reach the $285 million campaign goal to completely renovate the museum's flagship building.

"We are grateful to Northrop Grumman for this generous gift to support the transformation of one of the most popular museums in the world," said Chris Browne, John and Adrienne Mars Director of the museum.

"With this gift, we will be able to continue the work of bringing new artifacts, exhibitions and amenities to visitors from around the world and hope to expand our programming in the Northrop Grumman Planetarium."

The planetarium has also added new titles to its lineup of ticketed show options available several times daily (adult tickets are $10).

The new shows include "Oasis in Space," "Edge of Darkness," "Birth of Planet Earth" and "Faster Than Light."

In addition to the ticketed shows, free public programs that provide guided tours of the constellations and visible planets are offered twice a month, and a family-friendly educational show about the moon is offered to visitors twice a week.

The Northrop Grumman gift will allow the museum to increase the number of people served, in person and online.

Northrop Grumman has a long history of space innovation, including significant contributions to some of the most iconic missions and technological advancements, such as the Apollo Lunar Module, the Chandra X-ray Observatory and the James Webb Space Telescope.

"This contribution reinforces our commitment to pioneering the future of space exploration and education," said Rob Fleming, president of Northrop Grumman Space Systems.

"Introducing real-world science and technology through accessible, engaging experiences helps ignite the next generation of engineers and scientists.

Together with the National Air and Space Museum, we'll spark curiosity and drive innovation in aerospace and beyond."

This gift was made possible through the Northrop Grumman Foundation.

Agartha Larbi, the foundation's president said, "This partnership builds on our long-term commitment to advancing STEM education and investing in the success of the communities where our employees live and work."

The planetarium is located on the west end of the building and was reopened in October 2022. More information about how the museum is transforming all of its exhibitions and revitalizing the building is available on the museum's website.

With 'Grace': Astronauts name SpaceX's final Dragon crew capsule

June 25, 2025

The last Dragon spacecraft that SpaceX plans to build entered orbit for the first time with "grace."

Taking flight on Wednesday (June 25) from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, the capsule lifted off with Axiom Space's fourth crew to visit the International Space Station.

Ax-4 commander Peggy Whitson revealed the spacecraft's name just as it separated from its rocket's upper stage to begin its maiden mission.

"We had an incredible ride uphill and now we'd like to set our course for the International Space Station aboard the newest member of the Dragon fleet, our spacecraft named 'Grace,'" said Whitson, who in addition to leading Ax-4 is the director of human spaceflight at Axiom Space and a former NASA astronaut who holds the record for the most time in space by an American and by a woman.

"'Grace' is more than a name," Whitson said. "It reflects the elegance with which we move through space against the backdrop of Earth.

It speaks to the refinement of our mission, the harmony of science and spirit and the unmerited favor we carry with humility."

"Grace reminds us that spaceflight is not just a seed of engineering, but an act of good work for the benefit of every human everywhere," she said.

Whitson's comments were followed by remarks by her crewmates, delivered in their native language.

Ax-4 pilot Shubhanshu "Shuks" Shukla with the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) and mission specialists Sławosz "Suave" Uznański-Wiśniewski of Poland and the European Space Agency (ESA) and Tibor Kapu of the Hungarian to Orbit (HUNOR) astronaut program are each their country's second citizen to fly into space after a hiatus of more than 40 years.

It has become tradition for the first astronauts to fly on a U.S. commercial crew vehicle to have the honor of naming it.

In this case, SpaceX's Crew-10 had originally been assigned to launch aboard the new capsule (referred to previously by its SpaceX serial number, 213).

A decision by NASA to advance their launch date, though, resulted in their trading spacecraft with Ax-4.

"Yes, we had thought about it, but maybe even more significantly, we had been lobbied by many different people who had ideas for us," said Crew-10 commander Anne McClain with NASA, replying to a question from collectSPACE about her crew's chosen name as part of a pre-launch briefing in March.

"So I would like to recognize our excellent flight director, Allison [Bolinger], and her "Athena" flight control team, as she was really lobbying for a name."

"We're not going to share what we would have named the capsule, but we have told the next crew that may potentially fly it that we are now the lobbyists, lobbying them to give it our name," McClain said.

RFK Jr Pivots Away From ‘Make America Healthy Again’ to Fast Tracking BioTech

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. entered office as a fierce critic of Big Pharma. Now, his HHS is aggressively pharma-aligned — fast-tracking biotech, embracing technocratic venture capital, and turning the FDA into a tool of acceleration, not oversight. The FDA was set up as a watchdog to protect the public. But the FDA, under Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary, is now focused on expedited approvals, AI-driven automation, and industry collaboration. The Commissioner’s National Priority Voucher (CNPV) program allows select drug applications to be reviewed in as little as 30 days, rather than the usual 10-12 months.

Under the new rules, a company needs only to submit a manufacturing file, a “plausible mechanism” of action, which is a theoretical guess at how the drug might work, not clinical evidence. There’s no requirement for completed safety or efficacy trials at the time the voucher is granted. Companies “aligned” with federal priorities get fast-tracked and the public becomes the test group.

Instead of tackling those root causes of chronic illness, such as toxic food and chemical exposure, Kennedy’s HHS now courts biotech billionaires pushing new vaccines, biometric monitors, and behavior-tracking devices.

Lift off: CERN engineer travels to space

25 June, 2025

He's wasting no time, to say the least. Selected in 2022 from over 22 500 applicants to be one of the 11 members of the astronaut reserve pool of the European Space Agency (ESA), Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski, a CERN engineer, is already in space!

Sławosz and his colleagues from the Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4) crew took off today at 8:31 a.m. CEST from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida aboard a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft.

Dragon and the crew will dock with the International Space Station (ISS) tomorrow and will spend up to 14 days there.

Sławosz is the second Polish astronaut since 1978, and the second of a new generation of European astronauts, to fly on a commercial human spaceflight with Axiom Space – which he joins as mission specialist.

Europe is teaming up with a commercial space company to show how fast-track, short-duration missions can generate good science, outreach and education for a better life on Earth.

"On the ISS I’m looking forward to floating up to the cupola, which is our window back onto Earth. I can’t wait to see Earth as a whole, as one planet, one home."

– Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski during the press conference with the Ax-4 crew ahead of launch, on 3 June 2025.

During the ESA mission – called Ignis – Sławosz will carry out 13 experiments proposed by Polish companies and institutions and developed together with ESA.

Focusing on four key areas, this mission will contribute to advancing our understanding of human health, technology, materials science and biotechnology in space.

CERN will have the pleasure of seeing one of its technologies being tested on the ISS by Sławosz himself.

Indeed, in 2024, CERN collaborated with the Polish start-up SigmaLabs on the SpaceRadMon-NG (SRM) project, a next-generation miniaturised version of the Large Hadron Collider’s well-proven radiation monitoring device.

And it's none other than Sławosz who is taking the SRM into space, where it will monitor radiation levels and their effect on electronic chips to support the development of more resilient systems for satellites and future space missions.

How better to come full circle than to see a CERN engineer test a CERN technology in space?

Alongside the experiments conducted by Sławosz, the Ax-4 research programme includes many scientific studies and activities involving 31 countries.

This will be the largest number of research and science-related activities conducted on an Axiom Space mission aboard the ISS to date, underscoring the mission's global significance and collaborative nature with the goal of advancing microgravity research in low-Earth orbit.

The mission features scientific portfolios led by the US, India, Hungary and, as mentioned, Poland/ESA.

The aim is to boost participation in space research in these countries by involving diverse stakeholders and showcasing the value of microgravity research, and to foster international collaboration – a subject close to CERN's heart.

No wonder that ESA and CERN signed a bilateral cooperation agreement ten years ago to share expertise and facilities. This year therefore marks a decade of innovation.

We wish Sławosz all the best for the coming days. We will follow him from terra firma and wish him a safe return to Earth.

New moon of June 2025 sees Mercury climb to its highest point in the sky

June 25, 2025

The new moon occurs on June 25. A day later, Mercury reaches its highest point in the evening sky, and on June 27, the young moon will make a close pass to the planet.

The exact moment of the new moon phase occurs at 6:31 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time (1031 UTC), in New York, according to the U.S. Naval Observatory.

A new moon describes the moment when the sun and moon share a celestial longitude (called right ascension by astronomers), a projection of Earth's longitude lines on the sky measured eastward from the point where the sun crosses the celestial equator.

This position is also called a conjunction, and it can only happen when the moon is directly between Earth and the sun.

Sometimes the sun, moon and Earth line up perfectly, and the result is a solar eclipse. No eclipse is scheduled for this new moon, though – the next one is due on Sept. 21. Outside of solar eclipses, new moons are not visible.

Lunar phases are determined by the moon's position in its orbit around Earth, so they occur at the same time everywhere; the difference in the hour is solely due to one's time zone.

The new moon thus occurs at 3:31 a.m. in Los Angeles, 11:31 a.m. in Paris, and 7:31 p.m. local time in Tokyo.

Visible planets

On June 25 the sun sets at 8:31 p.m. in New York, according to the U.S. Naval Observatory; just five days after the solstice (June 20), so in the Northern Hemisphere days are still quite long.

The sky starts to get dark enough to see bright objects by about 9:15 p.m. At that point, one can see Mercury if there is a clear horizon.

From New York City the planet will be about 8 degrees above the horizon; tricky to spot, but still possible if conditions are right.

On June 26, Mercury reaches its highest elevation for Northern Hemisphere observers; at 9:15 it is still about 8 degrees high; that day the moon will be a thin crescent on the right side of the planet.

On June 27, in the wee hours of the morning in New York (2:03 a.m.), the moon passes within 3 degrees of Mercury; while the conjunction itself won't be visible (both the moon and Mercury are below the horizon) by the evening the moon will appear to the left of the planet and above it.

Mars, meanwhile, will be low in the west, as the planet sinks a bit each day towards the evening sun; by August, Mars will be lost in the solar glare.

One can spot it easily by its reddish color; while the planet is not as bright as it can be (it is at a point in its orbit where it is further from Earth) the color remains distinct.

Saturn rises after midnight at 12:48 a.m. EDT, (June 26) followed by Venus at 2:56 a.m. By sunrise at 4:53 a.m. Saturn is at 40 degrees and Venus at about 23 degrees; a good exercise is to see how close to sunrise one can still spot the two planets.

For those located closer to the equator, Mercury is a bit higher; from Bridgetown, Barbados, it is at 22 degrees at sunset (6:28 p.m.) and won't be visible until about a half hour later.

The planet sets at 8:10 p.m. June 25. The June 27 conjunction with the moon is more visible as one goes far westwards from New York; in Honolulu, Hawaii, the conjunction is at 8:03 p.m. and Mercury will still be 12 degrees above the western horizon with the thin crescent moon above it at about 22 degrees.

In the tropics, the effect of seasons on day length is much less pronounced – sunset on June 25 in Honolulu is at 7:17 p.m., rather earlier than in New York.

From the Southern Hemisphere, Mars will be in the northwest after sunset. As it is the austral winter, sunsets are early. In Santiago, Chile, for example, sunset is at 5:43 p.m. local time on June 25.

By 6:30 p.m. local time Mars is 40 degrees above the northwestern horizon in the constellation Leo.

Closer to the horizon is Mercury which, as in the Northern Hemisphere, is a challenge to observe, but it is slightly higher for austral sky watchers; about 10 degrees high, so with a clear horizon and no trees or buildings one can catch it. Mercury sets in Santiago by 7:33 p.m. local time.

In Santiago, Saturn rises on June 26 at 12:48 a.m. Venus rises at 4:20 a.m.; by 6 a.m. Saturn is about 53 degrees high in the north-northeast and Venus is at 20 degrees in the northeast.

Sunrise isn't until 7:47 a.m., by 7 a.m. as the sky is getting light one can see Venus in the northeast and Saturn just west of north.

Stargazers in Europe spot a strange cloud from SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch

June 25, 2025

The upper stage of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket treated stargazers in Europe to a surprise display on the night of June 23, when a plume of rocket propellant briefly became visible to the naked eye.

SpaceX's Transporter 14 mission lifted off from California's Vanderberg Space Force Base earlier this week carrying 70 commercial payloads bound for low-Earth orbit aboard one of the company's workhorse Falcon 9 rockets.

The June 23 launch saw the first stage of the reusable rocket make a controlled landing on the droneship "Of Course I Still Love You" in the Pacific Ocean, while the payload-bearing upper stage powered on to its target orbit.

Transporter 14's upper stage proceeded to deploy its payloads and release a plume of rocket propellant prior to re-entering Earth's atmosphere, which quickly froze and reflected sunlight, becoming visible to eagle-eyed stargazers in Europe.

Luckily, the Virtual Telescope Project's all sky camera captured the diffuse cloud of particles in the night sky above Manciano, Italy at 8:13 p.m. EDT on June 23 (0013 GMT June 24) alongside the softly glowing, dust choked band of the Milky Way.

Oxfordshire-based astrophotographer and science communicator Mary McIntyre also recorded a number of time-lapse videos around the same time as the plume passed swiftly over the U.K., using meteor and aurora-hunting cameras.

Similar plumes have been spotted in the wake of previous rideshare missions where a Falcon 9 upper stage has been ordered to perform a fuel purge.

The orientation and movement of rocket upper stages have been known to create unique patterns and majestic swirls in the night sky, though on this occasion the propellant lacked any such defined structure.

Orion constellation glows red in gorgeous deep space photo

June 24, 2025

This deep view of the Orion Constellation glows in reddish hues thanks to a filtered view of hydrogen alpha emission, a type of light emitted by hydrogen atoms.

The large, intricate semi-circle around the three stars that make up Orion's belt is known as Barnard's Loop (Sh2-276), a nebula about 1,600 light-years away that itself spans some 300 light-years across.

Barnard's Loop is part of the even bigger Orion molecular cloud complex, made up of dust, hydrogen and helium, and is the birthplace of stars.

I always wanted to make an image like this one that shows all the beautiful reddish hydrogen that surrounds one of the most spectacular and colorful regions of the entire night sky as seen from Earth.

This cloud contains known wonders like M42, Horse Head, LDN 1622, the large Lambda Orionis Ring and the bluish (OIII) Witch Head Nebula, close to Rigel star.

I had my set up for this shot (Samyang 35mm f1.8 with Poseidon C Pro) available and prepared for two months before Orion cooperated.

This image was a bit challenging to capture, due to uncooperative weather and the fact that the Orion constellation was beginning to set early along the western horizon.

I only had 40 minutes available for each clear night between February and March 2025 as seen from the Dark Sky Alqueva Reserve in Portugal, so collecting the seven hours of data in total for this image took many nights.

Had I taken it in the beginning of winter, I could have taken it in one night. I hope you enjoy the result.

Astronomers discover origins of mysterious double hot Jupiter exoplanets: 'It is a dance of sorts'

June 25, 2025

Astronomers may have uncovered the curious origins of the universe's most curious planets, so-called "double hot Jupiters." The team behind the research hopes their discovery will help find more of these rare planets.

Hot Jupiter extra-solar planets, or "exoplanets," are scorching hot gas giants around the size of Jupiter or above that orbit so closely to their parent stars that one of their years can last less than an Earth day.

While hot Jupiters are rare, orbiting just 1% of stars, even more scarce are "double hot Jupiters." These exoplanet pairs are found in binary star systems with one planet orbiting around each of the twin stars.

That's a strange arrangement and one that scientists have been keen to decode as it seems to challenge theories of planet formation.

This team of astronomers thinks they may have the key to this puzzle, finding that the normal, long-term evolution of binary systems can naturally lead to the formation of a hot Jupiter around each star.

The process investigated by the team is known as von Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) migration.

This posits the idea that over periods of time, planets with unusual orbits or orbital angles can be influenced by the gravity of another object, leading them to become a hot Jupiter close to their parent star.

"The ZLK mechanism is a dance of sorts," team leader and Yale University astronomer Malena Rice said in a statement.

"In a binary system, the extra star can shape and warp planets' orbits, causing the planets to migrate inward.

"We show how planets in binary systems can undergo a mirrored migration process, so that both stars end up with hot Jupiters."

To reach their conclusion, Rice and colleagues performed a number of simulations of the evolution of binary stars with two planets using the Grace computing cluster at the Yale Center for Research Computing with data from NASA's Exoplanet Archive and from the European Space Agency (ESA) star-tracking mission Gaia.

"With the right code and enough computing power, we can explore how planets evolve over billions of years — movements that no human could watch in a lifetime, but that still could leave imprints for us to observe," Yale researcher Yurou Liu said.

The unintended consequence of the team's research is that it makes planet-formation models a whole lot more interesting.

"We would expect giant planets to form far away from their host stars," Liu said. "This makes hot Jupiters both accessible and mysterious — and a worthwhile subject to study."

As for the hunt for more double hot Jupiters, the team suggests revisiting binary systems in which one hot Jupiter has already been discovered.

The only catch is: these parent stars need to have a separation that is not too close and not too far, but just right. "Our proposed mechanism works best when the stars are at a moderate separation," explained team member and Yale research Tiger Lu.

"They need to be far enough apart that giant planets are still expected to form around each star, but close enough together for the two stars to influence each other during the system lifetime."

Goldilocks binary stars, anyone?

The James Webb Space Telescope has discovered its 1st exoplanet and snapped its picture

June 25, 2025

After three years of helping astronomers investigate known planets beyond the solar system, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has discovered its first new planet.

The extrasolar planet, or "exoplanet," which has been designated TWA 7b, also happens to have the lowest mass of any planet that has been directly imaged beyond the solar system.

With an estimated mass of around 100 times that of Earth or 0.3 times the mass of Jupiter, TWA 7b is ten times lighter than any exoplanet previously directly imaged.

TWA 7b was discovered in the debris rings that surround the low-mass star CE Antilae, also known as TWA 7, located around 111 light-years from Earth.

CE Antilae is a very young star, estimated to be around just a few million years old. If that seems ancient, consider the sun, a "middle-aged" star, is around 4.6 billion years old.

CE Antilae, discovered in 1999, has long been a system of great interest to astronomers because it is seen "pole-on" from Earth.

That means the disk of debris or "protoplanetary disk" that surrounds CE Antliae is seen 'from above' (or 'below'), revealing its full extent.

This has allowed astronomers to see structures in this disk that appear to have been created by the gravity of then-unseen planets and planetesimals, the "seeds" which gather mass to grow into full planets.

The disk of CE Antilae is divided into three distinct rings, one of which is narrow and bounded by two empty "lanes" mostly devoid of matter.

When imaging this ring, the JWST spotted an infrared-emitting source, which the team of astronomers determined is most likely a young exoplanet.

They then used simulations that confirmed the formation of a thin ring and a "hole" exactly where this planet is positioned, corresponding to JWST observations.

The JWST is the ideal instrument to detect young low-mass planets like TWA 7b, which emit infrared radiation, the type of light the $10 billion space telescope is most sensitive to.

Directly imaging these planets is difficult because they are drowned out by light from their parent stars.

The JWST is equipped with a coronagraph that blocks out the light from central stars, allowing the faint infrared emissions of orbiting exoplanets to be detected by its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI).

That means, though this is the lowest mass planet ever imaged and the first exoplanet discovered by the JWST, it's a safe bet that the powerful space telescope will discover many more planets as it images even lighter worlds.

First Guardian to launch into space talks resilience

June 24, 2025

Space Force Guardian and NASA astronaut Col. Nick Hague, the first Guardian to launch into space, visited Vandenberg Space Force Base, June 18. During his visit, Hague thanked Team Vandenberg SFB personnel for their support.

He served as the commander of NASA's SpaceX Crew-9 mission, which took him and his crew to the International Space Station, where he spent 170 days as part of Expedition 72. Hague returned to Earth on March 28.

"The 18th Space Defense Squadron played a crucial role in supporting my mission aboard the Space Station, ensuring the safe navigation of our operations and preventing potential collisions with orbital debris or other objects in space,” Hague said.

“That’s why I’m here at Vandenberg, to be able to spend time with the Guardians and Airmen who are a part of Team Vandenberg. They’re the ones tracking all that stuff.”

Space travel was Hague’s dream as a child — one that would see him through his graduation at the U.S. Air Force Academy, where he received a Bachelor of Science in Astronautical Engineering.

He would submit three applications to the space program over the course of a decade, but remained steadfast through rejection and delay. In 2013, he was selected, one among 6,000 considered, to become a NASA astronaut.

In 2018, Hague faced a true test of determination and resilience when his shuttle experienced a critical malfunction during his first space mission.

“That’s when the training kicks in,” he explained. “We’re fortunate to have an exceptional team of psychologists and human factors experts who specialize in behavioral performance.

They prepare us to manage the stress of spaceflight — before launch, during the mission, and even as we reintegrate with our families upon return.”

Demonstrating remarkable composure and technical expertise during the mission abort and landing procedures, Hague and his crewmate successfully executed a safe landing, showcasing the strength of their training and teamwork.

During his recent mission, Hague shared that he and his crew spent over two hours each day performing cardio and weightlifting exercises aboard the International Space Station.

This rigorous routine was essential to mitigate the effects of bone density and muscle loss caused by microgravity.

DAF joins with Disney, Pixar to bring military family story to life in ‘Elio’

June 24, 2025

For military children, making new friends every few years is part of the routine, but it's not always easy. While the resilience of these children has been showcased on film before, a new animated movie is bringing some of their challenges to the big screen.

The Defense Department often works with Hollywood to create movie magic and lend an air of authenticity to military life depicted on screen.

It's not as often that DoD works with studios on animated films, but when it came to "Elio," Disney's new Pixar movie about a military child, the department's experts were called on to lend their support.

The film is about 11-year-old Elio, whose aunt and parental guardian is an Air Force major and an orbital analyst.

Elio is obsessed with space, and since he doesn't have many friends, he hopes to get abducted by aliens to find some.

He makes that dream happen and goes on a galactic adventure where he becomes friends with an alien. Naturally, chaos ensues.

The movie explores themes that many military kids can relate to, such as loneliness, being an outsider, finding one's place and the importance of friendship — no matter how different you are.

"I think the film does a really good job talking about relationships and showing what it could feel like as a military child who frequently deals with change and finding one's place in a new environment," said Develyn Watson, who helped support the movie as the deputy director of the Department of the Air Force Entertainment Liaison Office.

Pixar first contacted the department in early 2019 to see if Adrian Molina, the movie's cowriter/codirector, could get a tour of Beale Air Force Base in Yuba County, California.

Molina was born at the base and had been writing a story centered on how he felt growing up as a child in a military family.

In February 2021, the studio requested a tour of Vandenberg AFB, California — shortly before it was renamed as a Space Force base — so animators, writers, producers and others involved in the film could make the optics realistic.

They also wanted to learn more from military personnel and their families.

At the time, officials said the Space Force was being stood up, so the Air Force was still heavily involved in space operations. Because the movie was written based on the Air Force, reality was bent a bit to move the narrative forward.

"It's not like in a live [action movie], where you can just switch out uniforms," Watson explained. "In animation, that could be several millions of dollars to change.

The path was set for the Air Force, so that's how the character continued to be an Air Force person but has what is now a Space Force job."

Movie crew members also visited Travis AFB in Fairfield, California, to get a feel for what aircraft flightlines are like — something else pivotal to the film.

Personnel at the bases offered uniform guidance and other feedback, especially from active-duty mothers.

Watson said one of the things the studio really tried to get right was the mathematical aspects of space flight.

"We had to get with our experts at Vandenberg to kind of work through … how can we keep this as accurate as possible?" Watson said.

"We know it's a kids' movie, but … [the studio] also wanted to make sure that the adults could be like, 'You know what? They got that right!'"

"We think Disney and Pixar did a really good job," she added.

DoD entertainment officials said the department helped work on Disney's movie "Planes" about 15 years ago.

Watson said the Air Force also helped with a lesser-known 2005 direct-to-video animated movie called "Tugger: The Jeep 4x4 Who Wanted to Fly."

Ahead of the movie's theatrical release, Disney/Pixar invited military families to special screenings across the country, including at an event hosted by the Motion Picture Association in Washington, D.C. June 17.

50 Wins in the One Big Beautiful Bill

Here are 50 reasons why President Donald J. Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill is the best chance in a generation to pass critical reforms for which Americans voted: [First 10]

It delivers the largest tax cut in American history. This means an extra $5,000 in Americans’ pockets with a DOUBLE-DIGIT percent DECREASE to their tax bills.

Americans earning between $30,000 and $80,000 will pay around 15% less in taxes.

It makes the Trump Tax Cuts permanent, preventing the largest tax increase ever. If the bill doesn’t pass, Americans will see the largest tax increase in history.

It raises Americans’ take-home pay by as much as $13,300 and wages by as much as $11,600.

It reverses the spending curse plaguing Washington, D.C. The bill delivers the largest deficit reduction in nearly 30 years, with $1.6 trillion in mandatory savings — the largest single reduction in mandatory spending in our country’s history.

It delivers NO TAX ON TIPS and NO TAX ON OVERTIME. This makes good on two of President Trump’s cornerstone campaign promises and will benefit hardworking Americans where they need it the most — their paychecks.

It provides historic tax cuts for seniors.

It finishes President Trump’s border wall. As a result, 701 miles of primary wall, 900 miles of river barriers, 629 miles of secondary barriers, and 141 miles of vehicle and pedestrian barriers will be constructed.

It boosts Border Patrol and ICE agents on the frontlines with the largest border security investment in history. This means funding to hire 10,000 new ICE personnel, 5,000 new customs officers, and 3,000 new Border Patrol agents to detain and deport at least one million illegal immigrants annually.

It increases the child tax credit to $2,500 per family.

It protects Medicaid for Americans who truly need it. This bill eliminates waste, fraud, and abuse by ending benefits for at least 1.4 million illegal immigrants who are gaming the system.

Ex-Space Chief Rogozin Threatens to Send KVN Comedians to War

June 25, 2025

Russia’s former space chief Dmitry Rogozin on Tuesday threatened to send a group of young comedians to the war in Ukraine after they mocked his Ph.D. dissertation on a popular television show.

Rogozin said he was sent a clip from a recent broadcast of the long-running KVN comedy game show, where teams compete for the title of Russia’s “funniest and most inventive club.”

In the sketch that drew his ire, a member of a St. Petersburg team joked that Rogozin had written in his dissertation that “one doesn’t swap the cosmos for a chick.”

“We’ll take them to the front line and wish them good luck in battle,” Rogozin wrote on his Telegram channel, referring to the comedians. “And when they return, we’ll laugh together at their unfortunate, unfunny and vulgar joke.”

Rogozin, a nationalist politician and outspoken supporter of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, served as head of the Roscosmos space agency from 2018 to 2022.

He previously held posts as deputy prime minister and Russia’s envoy to NATO. During his career, he earned a Ph.D. in engineering with a focus on weapons theory.

In his post, Rogozin claimed to know which military enlistment office the KVN team members are registered with and said he was awaiting the name of their joke writer, whom he described as a “talentless punk.”

“We’ll teach them everything, including a sense of humor,” Rogozin wrote. However, later on Wednesday, he backtracked on his threat, saying that the comedians “are of no interest to us due to their intellectual immaturity.”

“They may be good for silly jokes, but not for defending the Motherland,” Rogozin wrote.

Since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, sending young men to the front as punishment for perceived offenses has become an increasingly common threat.

Ex-Soviet state arrests opposition cleric on terrorism charges

25 Jun, 2025 08:53

Armenian authorities have arrested a high-profile cleric for alleged terrorism and attempts to stage a coup, according to the country’s Investigative Committee and footage on social media.

Bagrat Galstanyan was a key leader in the demonstrations calling for Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan to step down after he agreed to return several border villages to Azerbaijan.

The move was meant to help mend still-tenuous relations between the two former Soviet republics.

In a statement on Wednesday, Armenia's Investigative Committee accused a movement called ‘Holy Struggle’, as well as its leaders, including Galstanyan, of harboring plans “to carry out terrorist acts and actions aimed at seizing power in Armenia.”

Officials said that while they tried to achieve their goals by fueling protests last summer, they later decided to change tactics, preparing “actions of small strike groups.”

The Committee also accused the movement of laying the groundwork for the use of force, including recruiting more than 1,000 people, gathering intelligence required to disable traffic lights and electricity in the Armenian capital, Yerevan, and acquiring “thousands of incendiary devices intended for explosions.”

According to local media, Galstanyan was taken into custody by security forces, with his home being searched.

Pashinyan responded to the reports, saying, without mentioning Galstanyan by name, that law enforcement had foiled a “large and shameful plan of the ‘criminal oligarchic clergy’ to destabilize the Republic of Armenia.”

Galstanyan, a senior bishop of the Armenian Apostolic Church, emerged as a central figure in Armenia’s 2024 protest movement.

The demonstrations were sparked by Pashinyan’s decision to return four border villages in the Tavush region to Azerbaijan – a move that many Armenians viewed as a betrayal of national interests.

The prime minister has framed the handover as part of broader efforts to normalize ties with Azerbaijan and formally demarcate the border, following decades of tension over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.

As the head of the Tavush diocese, Galstanyan led a protest march from Tavush to Yerevan, later leading mass rallies in the capital demanding Pashinyan’s resignation and the formation of a transitional government.

At one point, the cleric positioned himself as a candidate for prime minister, although his dual citizenship with Canada makes him ineligible to hold the post.

The arrest comes after the Armenian authorities detained Samvel Karapetyan, a Russian-Armenian billionaire, who voiced support for the Armenian Apostolic Church in the conflict with the government.

Karapetyan is facing charges of calling for the overthrow of the state.

‘Ukraine can win’ – new NATO commander

25 Jun, 2025 15:43

Ukraine can still achieve a military victory over Russia, NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe and head of the US European Command, Alexus Grynkewich, said during a US Senate hearing on Tuesday.

He was confirmed in his new role with the US-led military bloc earlier this month.

“I believe Ukraine can win,” he responded when asked if Kiev could still prevail despite significant casualties and waning financial support.

Grynkewich also noted that Ukrainian forces are displaying a level of tenacity that is hard for outsiders to fully comprehend.

He did not specify what form a Ukrainian victory might take, nor did he provide further detail regarding battlefield prospects.

Top NATO officials have long insisted that Ukraine should aim to defeat Russia militarily. The bloc continues to supply arms and intelligence to Kiev, even as it loses territory to Russian forces.

Ukraine’s 2023 counteroffensive failed to achieve any meaningful breakthroughs, and a more recent attempted incursion into Russia’s Kursk Region was repelled.

Meanwhile, Russian advances have continued along several sectors of the front line, including in the Donetsk and Kharkov regions.

Military analysts and Western officials have increasingly questioned the viability of a Ukrainian victory.

Last month, German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul claimed that the military defeat of nuclear-armed Russia had been impossible “from the very beginning.”

US President Donald Trump has also repeatedly expressed doubt that Ukraine could secure a military victory over Russia, instead pushing for a negotiated settlement of the conflict.

He has insisted that “Crimea will stay with Russia,” referred to Ukraine as “demolished,” and cautioned that the country may not be able to survive the conflict, even with US support.

Moscow has also repeatedly insisted that its victory is inevitable and has criticized continued Western military aid to Ukraine, arguing that it only prolongs hostilities without affecting their outcome.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has stressed that the conflict will end only when its “root causes” are resolved and his country’s security interests are taken into account.

He has also accused Kiev’s foreign backers of being uninterested in actually ending the conflict and using Ukraine to achieve their own goals.

Two Russian citizens who were collecting an improvised explosive from a cache outside Moscow, have been killed after opening fire on law enforcement, the Federal Security Service (FSB) reported on Wednesday.

The deceased were identified by the agency as “accomplices of Ukrainian special services,” who allegedly planned to use the device in a terrorist attack targeting a Russian military service member.

According to the FSB, video footage appearing to show surveillance scenes along with the alleged IED proves that the bomb was ready for activation when it was seized.

Plot details were subsequently discovered on suspects’ phones and investigators are reportedly treating the case as a felony involving unlawful possession of explosives.

The FSB frequently reports having disrupted terrorist operations allegedly coordinated by Ukrainian intelligence services, though suspects are typically apprehended alive.

Exceptions have occurred, particularly when Kiev is believed to rely on radicalized individuals with links to international terrorist organizations.

One such case was reported in April 2024, when two Central Asian Islamists allegedly planned to use first-person-view drones armed with explosive devices to target an oil refinery in Nizhny Novgorod Region.

The FSB claimed the suspects were directed to retrieve the equipment from a cache and were given operational instructions by a “Ukrainian handler.”
