Summary

Today’s Headlines: Elon Musk is turning on Trump, launching a “KILL THE BILL” campaign against the president’s budget proposal, which he calls a path to “bankrupting America.” The bill adds $2.4 trillion to the deficit, mostly through tax cuts for the wealthy, while omitting EV credits and Starlink contracts—two things Musk clearly noticed. Meanwhile, private job growth plummeted to just 37,000 in May, with ADP revising April’s numbers downward and businesses reporting layoffs and price hikes due to Trump’s tariffs, even on non-tariffed goods. On the international front, Trump revealed (then deleted) details of a call with Putin about Ukraine and Iran’s nuclear ambitions. At home, he reinstated a sweeping travel ban on 12 countries and tightened restrictions on 7 more, following a report on "hostile attitudes" toward the U.S. The U.S. also vetoed a UN ceasefire resolution in Gaza that had 14-1 backing, citing its failure to condemn Hamas or require disarmament. The Justice Department is investigating Biden’s last-minute pardons—specifically the use of autopen to sign off on clemencies for family and 37 federal inmates. Columbia University is now facing potential loss of accreditation, with the Education Department claiming it failed to protect Jewish students. And in Colorado, a federal judge paused deportation of the wife and children of a man charged with a federal hate crime after attacking Jewish demonstrators with a homemade flamethrower.
