Been saying this for years, I don’t think I’m wrong. We will end up in a war with Iran. Nuclear war. Mark my words.

Cheat Justice Roberts should be in prison for treason. “Last week, the New York Times obtained and published sixteen pages of private correspondence among the justices in February 2016. The exchanges capture, in the justices’ own words, the moment the Court crossed a critical line, corrupting its emergency docket into the shadow docket. The documents are remarkable on their face. They reveal the justices writing to one another in plain and sometimes testy language. They pressed personal views, dismissed valid objections, even cited a blog post and a television interview as supporting authority. More significantly, the correspondence captures not just a consequential ruling, but the birth of a new and disturbing way of conducting Court business. Georgetown Law professor Stephen Vladeck, whose book on the shadow docket is widely considered a definitive account, had written just weeks before the Times’ publication that the shadow docket’s origin would remain sealed for generations. We would have to wait, he told readers, for our grandchildren to gain access to the justices’ private papers before the full story could be told. But the 2026 writers had another script in mind. Now the full story is out there. And it is not flattering, particularly for the Chief Justice.” open.substack.com/pub/thinkbigpi…

BREAKING: Barron Trump’s yerba mate beverage launch ignites OUTRAGE — “They hate immigrants but love their products.” Barron Trump is 19 years old, a business school sophomore, and apparently confident enough in the family brand to launch a beverage company built around a drink that originates from the Indigenous Guaraní people of South America — people whose descendants his father's administration is currently hunting down and deporting. Sollos Yerba Mate — named after "sol," the Spanish word for sun — teased its May launch on Instagram this week and was immediately flooded with comments that can be politely summarized as: you have got to be kidding. "Oh wow, a family tied to anti-Latino rhetoric profiting off something deeply rooted in Indigenous Guaraní, Paraguayan, and South American culture. Yeah… no," wrote one user. "Funny the name is Sollos — Spanish words. Given Daddy Cheeto's policies, shouldn't this be called ICE or WHITE or something?" wrote another. The company is headquartered near Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, incorporated in Delaware in December, and registered with the SEC as Soulstice Inc. with $1 million in capital. Barron is listed as a director alongside four business partners, two of whom took breaks from Villanova and Notre Dame to focus on the venture they founded with "a few close friends." The branding describes Sollos as a Florida lifestyle brand — "capturing the full cycle of the sun" — which is an interesting framing for a drink with centuries of history among South American Indigenous communities that predates Florida's statehood by roughly forever. The cultural math here is not complicated. The Trump administration has conducted mass deportations targeting Latino communities across the country. ICE has terrorized immigrant neighborhoods. The family has referred to immigrants with language we won't repeat here. And now the president's son wants to sell you a traditional Indigenous South American herbal drink, named with a Spanish word, out of a Palm Beach office near his father's golf club. "They hate immigrants but love to steal their product ideas," one Instagram user wrote. "You don't want South Americans here in our country, but you'll gladly take their tea and make money from it." Sollos did not respond to requests for comment. The Guaraní people, whose ancestors developed yerba mate over centuries, were not consulted. Barron is reportedly spending his summer cooking up business plans. Apparently, the plan goes something like this: sell the culture, deport the people. Please like and share if you’re sick of rich white Americans profiting from someone else’s cultural heritage.

Trump: "They came to us and they said, 'We will agree to open the strait.' And all my people were happy, except me. I said, 'Wait a minute, if we open the strait, that means they're gonna make $500 million a day.' I don't want them to make $500 million a day until they settle this thing. So I'm the one who kept it closed."

I love this. What a gift. There is such power in feeling seen, connected, acknowledged. We need more of that, not just from the famous but from all of us.
