The Latest


This Could Be the Final Newsletter Before All-Out War


Israel launched its long-awaited attack on Iran last night, bombarding the
Islamic Republic with dozens of missiles and striking its top nuclear facility
and at least five military bases.

The assault reportedly killed Iranian Revolutionary Guard commander Hossein
Salami and other top military leaders, and Israel believes other officials and
nuclear scientists also perished. The episode came just days after White House
envoy Steve Witkoff warned that Iran could unleash a “mass casualty response”
if the Israelis bombed its nuclear facilities.

Earlier this week, unnamed Washington sources
<[link removed]>
expressed concern over Israel's ability to fend off Iran’s retaliation, which
would inevitably lead to Benjamin Netanyahu ordering the American military to
step in and fight on his country’s behalf. Tehran launched its first
counterstrike last night, firing over 100 rockets at its attacker within hours
of the initial assault.

On Thursday, Iran’s president threatened to “destroy” any country that
eliminates his government’s nuclear facilities. Now, the world will learn what
that looks like.Read more.

U.S. Says It Was “Not Involved.” That’s Not True.


Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted the United States played no role in
Israel’s attacks on Iran on Thursday, describing the campaign as “unilateral
action,” saying “we are not involved in strikes against Iran,” and adding that
“our top priority is protecting American forces in the region.”


<[link removed]>

While the American military may not have physically perpetrated the assault,
years of funding and sending weapons to Israel, which Donald Trump just bragged
abouton Truth Social
<[link removed]>, undeniably
place the U.S. at the center of last night’s events. Washington knew these
attacks would happen. They aided Israel in carrying them out. Politicians
purporting to be America First can’t now credibly turn around and say they had
nothing to do with it. Our country is in deep.Read more.

Trump Knew the Attack Was Coming


Donald Trump admitted he had prior knowledge about Israel’s attack on Iran on
Thursday, telling Bret Baier he knew of the Netanyahu government’s plan to
conduct the preemptive strikes and that the assault came as no surprise.

Despite being complicit in the act of war, the president hopes last night’s
events will help his ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran. Steve Witkoff was
scheduled to participate in the next round of talks on Sunday, but whether that
will still happen is up in the air.

"Iran cannot have a nuclear bomb, and we are hoping to get back to the
negotiating table. We will see. There are several people in leadership in Iran
that will not be coming back," Trump said following the strikes.

It’s worth taking a step back and wondering how any of this helps the United
States. We can’t think of a single way.Read more.

Somehow, Yesterday’s India Plane Crash Had a Survivor


Yesterday’s Morning Note <[link removed]>
highlighted footage from a catastrophic Thursday morning plane crash in India.
Anyone who watchesthe video
<[link removed]> would quickly assume
the disaster had no survivors. But they would be wrong.

British man Vishwashkumar Ramesh miraculously walked away from the crash scene
with no apparent life-threatening injuries, somehow dodging the fate each of
his 241 fellow passengers appeared to have suffered. After recovering in the
hospital, he will return to his wife and four-year-old son.

The plane fell from the sky less than a minute after taking off in Ahmedabad,
barreling into the ground and causing a massive fireball to burst into the air.

Ramesh’s brother reportedly told an interviewer that he has “no idea how he
survived.” Neither do we.Read more.

Liberal Governor Confronted for Urging Men to Use Women’s Bathrooms


“Everyone should use the other gender's bathroom today!”

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker tweeted
<[link removed]> those exact words in 2017,
promoting a message that would have justifiably gotten him beaten up in a time
before America’s culture wars reached peak insanity. He ended the post with
#protecttranskids, as if encouraging grown men to whip their penises out in the
same rooms where young girls do their business isprotecting children.

Republican Congressman Brandon Gill hammered Pritzker over the old tweet on
Thursday, bombarding him with deeply reasonable questions onhow in the world he
could push for a male invasion of female restrooms.

At one point, the congressman asked, “Did you ever consider that women don’t
want you in their bathrooms?” But come on.Take a look at the governor
<[link removed]>. What possible reason could
there be for America’s sweethearts to reject the idea of getting up close and
personal with him?Read more.

The Creepy Porn Lawyer Gets a Win


Bad news for America’s porn star community: Michael Avenatti will be out of
prison sooner than expected.

The truly creepy lawyer who represented Stormy Daniels in her 2018 lawsuit
against Donald Trump received some good fortune yesterday when U.S. District
Judge James Selna reduced his sentence from 14 years all the way down to eight.
That means Avenatti, who pleaded guilty to wire fraud and tax obstruction,
could be a free man as soon as 2029.

Despite hilariously claiming to be a champion of women, Avenatti rose to fame
by exploiting Daniels on the national stage, getting rich off “representing”
her while she performed at strip clubs as sexually deprived men threw things at
her. If you happen to be an adult film actress, we cannot overstate how
strongly we recommend staying away from the Creepy Porn Lawyer. He does not
have your best interests at heart.

Democrat Senate Candidate Loves Sharing Sex Magazines with His Moms


Allow us to introduce you to Zach Wahls.

The liberal Iowa state legislator announced his 2026 Senate candidacy
<[link removed]> on Wednesday, describing
himself as someone who lives by “Scout’s Honor” and pledging to bring those
deeply held values to Washington.

A closer look at Wahls’ personal life, however, paints an enormously
different picture. The Senate hopeful onceboasted on Reddit
<[link removed]> about sharing
Playboy magazines with his lesbian moms, a habit he now describes as "normal
guy" behavior that will help him connect with male voters.

“My moms bought me a subscription to Playboy when I was 16 at my request,” he
posted in a chat. “Only rule? They got first dibs.”

He also wrote about his porn star preferences, saying he “was all about the
Asians when [he] was younger,” but eventually developed a stronger liking for
“tall brunettes.” He also confessed that he used to consume lesbian porn, but
gave it up with age. We swear we’re not making this up.Read more.

Commentary


Drop Them


“From this day forward, it’s going to be only America first. America first.”

That’s a direct quote from Donald Trump’s first inaugural address, and it’s
the same sentiment that thrust him back into the White House in January. Now,
the world will find out if he really meant it.

Now that Benjamin Netanyahu and his war-hungry government have executed their
long-awaited assault, the president faces a legacy-altering decision:to
support, or not to support?

We’d like to take this opportunity to state our position as clearly as
possible.The United States should not at any level participate in a war with
Iran. No funding, no American weapons, no troops on the ground. Regardless of
what our “special ally” says, a fight with the Iranians has nothing to offer
the United States. It is not in our national interest.

If Israel wants to wage this war, it has every right to do so. It is a
sovereign country, and it can do as it pleases. But not with America’s backing.
At an absolute minimum, the United States continuing to insert itself in this
conflict will further whip up the radical Islamic world’s hatred for the West
and fuel the next generation of terrorism. The worst case?Thousands of
immediate American deaths, all in the name of a foreign agenda that has nothing
to do with our country.

It goes without saying that neither of those possibilities would be
beneficial for the United States. But there is another option:drop Israel. Let
them fight their own wars.

No matter how many bogus antisemitism allegations neocon ghouls like Mark
Levin hurl at Americans who advocate forthat path, opposing destroying the
United States in the name of the Netanyahu government has nothing to do with
Israel. It’s about America. We reject the idea of involving the U.S. in an
Israeli war for the same reason we would stand against doing the same thing on
behalf of Eritrea, Suriname, Cambodia, or any other random country you could
close your eyes and point at on a map.It is not America’s fight. Engaging in it
would be a middle finger in the faces of the millions of voters who cast their
ballots in hopes of creating a government that would finally put the United
States first. What happens next will define Donald Trump’s presidency.

This Day in History


June 13, 1807: Thomas Jefferson receives a subpoena to testify in Aaron Burr’s
treason trial. After killing Alexander Hamilton in their infamous duel, Burr
went into hiding and concocted a seditious plan to create a new nation over
which he would rule. A leak led to the plan’s failure and Burr receiving an
indictment for treason. The accused criminal and former vice president hoped
Jefferson would produce documents that would exonerate him, but the president
refused to comply. In the end, Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall found
Burr not guilty by lack of evidence. Read more.
