Waging Nonviolence: A new youth-led lawsuit is challenging Trump\u2019s fossil fuel orders<\/a><\/h2>\nThis summer, kids are taking the climate crisis to the courts. The 22 plaintiffs of Lighthiser v. Trump<\/a><\/em>, a lawsuit filed in May, range from 7 to 25 years old. They are challenging three of President Donald Trump\u2019s most controversial executive orders to \u201cunleash<\/a>\u201d fossil fuels and revoke renewable energy initiatives. The orders roll back critical investments<\/a> in sustainable technologies and climate science, declare a \u201cNational Energy Emergency\u201d to increase fossil fuel use, and prop up the coal, oil and gas industries through deregulation<\/a>.<\/p>\nThe case will hinge on the youth\u2019s constitutional rights \u2014 a pivotal angle<\/a> in recent environmental suits. When hearings begin in September in the U.S. District Court of Montana, the Lighthiser<\/em> plaintiffs will argue that the three executive orders violate their Fifth Amendment rights to life and liberty. Additionally, they allege the president exceeded his authority by attempting to override laws like the Clean Air Act. As the case unfolds, it will have sweeping implications for the legal resistance to the Trump administration, and for the climate movement at large.

Dean Blundell: Macron vs MAGA: MAGA Podcaster Candace Owens Just Got Sued By The French President and His Wife. LOL.<\/a><\/h2>\nFrance\u2019s President just did what world leaders never do: sued a U.S. right-wing troll in American court. And now, the floodgates might be open\u2014for Obama, Clinton, and Comey to strike back.<\/p>\n
When the First Lady of France is accused of being a man named Jean-Michel by a MAGA podcaster, and the president of France sues for defamation in the U.S., you\u2019re not just watching a lawsuit. You\u2019re watching a global legal trap get set\u2014for Trump, and every propagandist orbiting his disinformation death star.<\/p>\n
From Birtherism to Brigitte<\/em>
\nOn Wednesday, French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife, First Lady Brigitte Macron, filed a 22-count defamation lawsuit<\/em> against American far-right influencer Candace Owens in Delaware Superior Court. The charge? That Owens launched a sustained, vicious campaign alleging Brigitte Macron is secretly a man named \u201cJean-Michel Trogneux.\u201d

ProPublica, The Texas Tribune, Alianza Rebelde Investiga and Cazadores de Fake News: The Men Trump Deported to a Salvadoran Prison<\/a><\/h2>\nOn March 15, President Donald Trump\u2019s administration sent more than 230 Venezuelan immigrants to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador. Without providing evidence, Trump has called the men \u201csome of the most violent savages on the face of the Earth.\u201d<\/p>\n
Last week, the men were released as suddenly as they’d been taken away. Now, the truth of all their stories \u2014 one by one \u2014 will begin to be told.<\/p>\n

The plan recommends deleting \u201creferences to misinformation, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and climate change\u201d in federal risk management guidance and prohibiting the federal government from contracting with large language model (LLM) developers unless they \u201censure that their systems are objective and free from top-down ideological bias\u201d \u2014 a standard it hasn\u2019t yet clearly defined.

It also seeks to remove state and federal regulatory hurdles for AI development, including by denying states AI-related funding if their rules \u201chinder the effectiveness of that funding or award,\u201d effectively resurrecting a failed congressional AI law moratorium<\/a>. The plan also suggests cutting rules that slow building data centers and semiconductor manufacturing facilities, and expanding the power grid to support \u201cenergy-intensive industries of the future.\u201d

Heather Cox Richardson: Letters from an American – July 23, 2025<\/a><\/h2>\n…
\nDespite her claims that it is a damning bombshell, the material in the newly released report in fact does not challenge the conclusion of the U.S. intelligence agencies, the Mueller report, and the Senate Intelligence Committee that Russia preferred a Trump presidency to a Clinton presidency and worked to get Trump elected in part by attacking Clinton and spreading lies about her health.<\/p>\n
What the report did do was deliver red meat to the MAGA base by spreading the same sorts of rumors about Clinton the Russians spread in 2016.<\/p>\n
Gabbard compounded that effort at the White House press conference by reading material in the report as if it were fact, saying that Russia had \u201chigh-level [Democratic National Committee] e-mails that detailed evidence of Hillary’s \u2018psycho emotional problems, uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression, and cheerfulness.\u2019 And that then-secretary Clinton was allegedly on a daily regimen of heavy tranquilizers,\u201d along with a number of other charges that Clinton had broken the law. Gabbard did not mention that these allegations were in fact identified in the report as material prepared by Russia\u2019s Foreign Intelligence Services.<\/p>\n
Just to be clear: The director of national intelligence for the United States of America is making allegations against a former U.S. presidential candidate based on material from Russia\u2019s intelligence services.
\n…<\/p>\n
In any case, the distractions seemed to be for naught, since Sadie Gurman, Annie Linskey, Josh Dawsey, and Alex Leary of the Wall Street Journal<\/em> dropped a story just after 3:00 this afternoon, reporting that Attorney General Pam Bondi and her deputy informed Trump in May that his name appeared \u201cmultiple times\u201d in the Epstein files. They told him they did not plan to release any more documents from the investigation because the files contained both the personal information of victims and child pornography.<\/p>\nOhio\u2019s David Pepper noted that this timing checks out with the feud between Trump and billionaire Elon Musk, who tweeted on June 5: \u201cTime to drop the really big bomb: [Trump] is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public. Have a nice day, DJT!\u201d Musk followed that tweet with another: \u201cMark this post for the future. The truth will come out.\u201d<\/p>\n
While that \u201csort of felt like old news,\u201d Pepper wrote, \u201cfor the White House, that was Musk revealing something that had only recently been confirmed (and that clearly had hopes to bury). So it was a far more brutal tweet than we realized at the time. And the reason why Musk took it down two days later.\u201d
