Trump says he's ending federal funding for NPR and PBS. They say he can't
In an executive order, President Trump directs the Corporation for Public Broadcasting to stop funding NPR and PBS. They say he can't. PBS chief Paula Kerger calls it "blatantly unlawful".

It’s almost as though everyone in Trump’s orbit, inside and outside government, gets together on a (non-secure) Zoom call to decide “What’s the most corrupt and illegal thing we can do today?
And on some days they can’t reach consensus so they just go ahead and do them all.

1. Truth Social, Trump's social media platform, announced an audacious scheme yesterday to profit from Trump's tariffs
Truth Social will offer actively-managed INVESTMENT ACCOUNTS composed of stocks in companies who benefit from Trump's policies
It's a jaw-dropping conflict of interest

Under Trump's budget, rural healthcare is wiped out.

"Rural programs appear to be the hardest hard-hit. The rural hospital flexibility grants, state offices of rural health, and at-risk rural hospitals program grants are listed as eliminations."

The Lagoon Nebula (M8) is a star-forming cloud of gas 4,000 light-years away in Sagittarius. Spanning 55 light-years, it was discovered in 1654 by Italian astronomer Giovanni Battista Hodierna. Hubble captured this stunning view in 2018.
