NEW: We recently heard that the Trump administration was leaning on the government of Gambia to help Elon Musk. For weeks, we made phone calls, wrote letters and knocked on folks’ doors to try to confirm it. But we were stuck.So @js_kaplan and I got on a plane to Banjul. 1/
Here is what we confirmed: After Musk’s rise to power in the U.S. government, the State Department has repeatedly coaxed, lobbied and browbeat this tiny West African country into giving business to Musk’s satellite company Starlink.
From notes and firsthand sources, we also learned of a remarkable meeting: When the U.S. ambassador went to a Gambian minister’s office to push him to approve Starlink’s license, she also noted that U.S. foreign aid there was under review
The Gambians took it as a veiled threat.
This is the headquarters of that government agency, which has become the target of a monthslong pressure campaign by the U.S. government in lockstep with Starlink
It’s not just Gambia. We got internal cables, notes and other records that show how U.S. diplomats have intervened on behalf of Starlink in at least four other developing nations. All while the U.S. has withdrawn foreign aid from those same countries.
The campaign has not been subtle. As one Starlink employee put it: “We’re pushing from the top and the bottom to ram this through.”
We wanted to know if this is what the State Department normally does. Turns out no.
Ten current and former agency officials said what we found is an alarming departure from standard diplomacy — because of both the tactics used and the person who would benefit most from them
“If this was done by another country, we absolutely would call this corruption,” said Kristofer Harrison, a former high-level State Department official in the George W. Bush administration. “Because it is corruption.”
Starlink didn’t respond to a request for comment. The White House said Musk has nothing to do with deals involving Starlink and Trump does not tolerate conflicts of interest.
The State Department said Starlink helps remote areas get the internet and “any patriotic American should want to see an American company’s success.”

Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick is calling for an immediate cut to U.S. interest rates, asserting that inflation is under control and rising tariff revenues justify looser monetary policy.
However, core inflation remains elevated at 2.8% as of May 2025—above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target—and GDP growth is projected to slow from 2.8% in 2024 to 1.4% in 2025.
Trump-era tariffs have driven a 78% increase in tariff revenue this year, but they also raise consumer prices, compounding inflationary pressure.
Cutting rates in this environment risks reigniting inflation while growth is already decelerating, increasing the likelihood of stagflation and forcing the Fed to tighten more aggressively later. Lutnick’s proposal prioritizes short-term stimulus over long-term stability and risks undermining the Fed’s credibility in managing its dual mandate.https://t.co/mBWEzxczRz

People say Zohran Mamdani won the Jewish vote in NYC—but that’s not true…at all.
He won maybe 2% of Jewish votes.
He earned support from about 20% of Jewish-Democrats voters. Given that Jewish Democrats make up roughly 14–16% of the primary electorate, that’s means just 2.8–3.2% of total primary voters for Zohran were Jews.
Zoom out further: NYC is home to about 1.1 million Jewish people — so Mamdani pulled support from around 2% of all Jews in the city.
And the voting patterns tell the whole story. Look at Borough Park (+69 for Cuomo), Midwood (+54), and Sheepshead Bay (+31) —neighborhoods with large Orthodox communities that have been hit hard by rising hate crimes. Mamdani didn’t just lose these areas. They overwhelmingly rejected him.
I’m seeing real fear in our community. Jewish New Yorkers are worried, and I feel that too, for my friends and family. That’s why this matters.
If Mamdani intends to lead all of New York City, this is a trust gap he can’t ignore— especially at a time when antisemitism is at record highs.
My sincere hope is that he rises to the moment and earns the trust of the community that didn’t support him. But given his campaign rhetoric, leaning into anti-Jewish dog whistles to appeal to wealthy, white progressives— I’m genuinely concerned.
That kind of messaging has already left many Jewish New Yorkers feeling less safe.
If Mamdani truly wants to be a mayor for everyone, he has to prove to us that he wants to make Jews — like other minorities in the city— safe. And we will hold him to it.

If you were born in America, American citizenship is your birthright – that’s a promise made by our Constitution. That’s the principle that made America a global power.
SCOTUS’ decision to limit nationwide injunctions is a disgraceful forfeiture of the Judiciary’s power to a president who doesn’t believe in or even understand our laws, which has only added more fuel to Trump’s unconstitutional, unamerican crusades.
Whatever lies ahead, the fight to protect birthright citizenship continues. We will never, never surrender our birthright to people who don’t know a damn thing about what – and who – makes America great.

BREAKING: Parents win in a free exercise challenge to what the Supreme Court calls “LGBTQ+-inclusive” texts in a school. Alito, for the 6-3 court, reverses the Fourth Circuit in a case over a school district’s lack of any parental “opt-out policy” over those texts. Sotomayor writes the dissent.

COMPLETELY OBLITERATED! is just like 90 trade deals in 90 days, no tax on social security, no Medicaid cuts, only deporting criminals, war in Ukraine over in 24 hours, and on & on & on. They want people to believe what they say at face value while lying to us about everything.

Y’all will pick up on the identity politics now. You’ll call out racism now. Peep how you hype up joy as a plus now. Look at how being a child of immigrants matters now.

Sotomayor brings the fire too:
“The gamesmanship in this request is apparent and the Government makes no attempt to hide it. Yet, shamefully, this Court plays along. Because I will not be complicit in so grave an attack on our system of law, I dissent.”
SCOTUS 2
Mark Joseph Stern:
In its second decision of the day, the Supreme Court UPHOLDS the Preventive Services Task Force, which decides which treatments must be fully covered by health insurance …
But the court also clarifies that RFK Jr. has power to remove its members at-will.
One quick takeaway from the Supreme Court’s birthright citizenship case: The conservative justices fucking HATE Ketanji Brown Jackson already http://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p…[image or embed]— Jay Willis (@jaywillis.net) June 27, 2025 at 10:20 AM
