NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman@NASAAdmin

To return Americans to the Moon, NASA is shifting to an iterative, execution-focused approach – just as we did during Apollo.  We are standardizing rocket architecture, embedding NASA expertise across industry, and increasing launch cadence to support sustained lunar operations.   We are sending a demand signal for crewed missions beyond Artemis V, with at least two providers capable of bringing astronauts to the surface every 6 months.  The goal is not just to reach the Moon, but to stay.  America will never give up the Moon again.

Speaking with reporters on Tuesday, President Donald Trump insisted that Iran was “totally defeated,” the war is over and that the “fake news” media is the only thing keeping the war going. Read about this, Kara Swisher’s future at CNN and more in today’s Poynter Report, our Monday-Friday #media industry newsletter. poynter.org/commentary/202…

Trump on Iranian leaders: "They're gonna make a deal. They did something yesterday that was amazing actually. They gave us a present, and the present arrived today. It was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money. I'm not gonna tell you what that present is but it was very significant prize."

In regards to speculation about the PWHL expanding to Chicago, the league has not confirmed that any expansion decision has been made at this time. I’d also be shocked if they considered playing in a 2,000 seat arena.

Iran, via its state media, is denying there were any talks of any kind with the Trump administration, after POTUS pre-market opening social media post claiming weekend talks have convinced him to postpone attacks on Iranian power infrastructure for five days.

The @nytimes reports that Corey Lewandowksi - who wasn't even a full-time US government employee - had access to the PDB?!?

1.) President Trump appears to be threatening a war crime; 2.) This will go over badly with other Gulf countries, for Iran will then attack their power plants and perhaps desalination; 3.) Iran won't reopen the Strait, because closure is what gives it leverage.
The White House@WhiteHouse

🚨 “If Iran doesn’t FULLY OPEN, WITHOUT THREAT, the Strait of Hormuz, within 48 HOURS from this exact point in time, the United States of America will hit and obliterate their various POWER PLANTS, STARTING WITH THE BIGGEST ONE FIRST…” - President DONALD J. TRUMP

Obama agreed to $1.3 billion in sanctions relief for Iran as part of a deal that prevented both an Iranian nuke and a war. Trump withdrew from the deal, started a war that will likely result in Iran obtaining a nuke, and gave Iran $14 billion in sanctions relief.
Barak Ravid@BarakRavid

🚨U.S. to allow Iran to get ~14 billion dollars (!!!) in oil revenue 🚨This is a huge financial concession to Iran by the U.S. 🚨It is the first time U.S. is buying Iranian oil since 1996 🚨It's all happening in the middle of a war against...Iran

If you could read stories without having to update upon opening the app, it would be a much better experience. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

@chicagotribune folks, the app is seriously frustrating. I rarely click on alerts because I know 9 times out of 10, I won’t be able to read the story because I’ll have to update the app, and then I have to go hunting for the story after the update.
