New York City freezes rent for one million apartments following Mayor Mamdani's campaign pledge.

On Thursday night, New York’s Rent Guidelines Board voted 7-1 to freeze rents for approximately one million rent-stabilized apartments for the next two years. The historic decision fulfills the primary campaign promise of socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who focused his platform on urban affordability. This freeze applies to nearly 40% of the city’s housing stock, meaning tenants in these regulated units will see no price increases during their next lease cycles. While tenant unions celebrated the move as a major victory against displacement, landlord representatives warned that the freeze would lead to building decay as maintenance costs rise. Real estate groups are expected to file legal challenges against the board's decision in the coming weeks.

It's a good thing stabilizing rent in an economy wages aren't rising and economic uncertainty from trade policy is raising inflation and half of all stocks are tech and AI as ai investments drop we have to consider economic damage and how wages will drop and so will unemployment it's right to stabilize rents and I'd support going further and lowering them.

US strikes Iran after drone attack on ship breaks new ceasefire

On Friday, the U.S. military launched retaliatory airstrikes against Iranian missile and drone sites after a Singapore-flagged cargo ship was struck in the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday. The escalation threatens a fragile, weeks-old ceasefire agreement intended to end months of conflict and allow more than 11,000 stranded seafarers to evacuate the region. President Donald Trump condemned the drone strike as a "foolish violation" of the truce and ordered the strikes on Iranian coastal radar and storage facilities. In response to the violence, the United Nations' maritime agency has paused its large-scale operation to escort hundreds of commercial vessels safely out of the Persian Gulf. Global markets are now monitoring whether this exchange marks a total collapse of the peace deal or a contained enforcement of its terms.

Extreme European heatwave kills dozens and shatters all-time temperature records

This week, a relentless heatwave surged across Europe, setting all-time June temperature records in France, the UK, and Germany. At least 60 deaths have been confirmed, including 40 drownings in France as residents sought relief in rivers and lakes. Scientists from World Weather Attribution stated the intensity of this "heat dome" would have been virtually impossible without human-driven climate change. The extreme temperatures have paralyzed infrastructure, forcing nuclear plants to cut output and causing widespread power outages and train cancellations. Authorities expect the dangerous conditions to persist through the weekend as the heat moves toward central and southern Europe.

Trump threatens 100% tariffs on countries taxing U.S. tech firms

On Friday, President Donald Trump warned he would impose a 100% tariff on all imports from any nation that implements a digital services tax on American companies. The threat specifically targets several European countries currently discussing taxes on the local revenues of tech giants like Meta, Google, and Microsoft. Trump claimed these retaliatory duties would immediately supersede any existing trade agreements, regardless of whether they were recently signed or finalized. European officials responded by asserting their sovereign right to regulate economic activity and warned they are prepared to retaliate if the U.S. follows through. Markets initially remained calm, with some analysts suggesting the move is a high-stakes negotiating tactic rather than an imminent policy change.

Israel-First Dems STILL Crashing Out Over Zohran!

 @5HD3QM6Conservatismfrom Utah  commented…2 days2D

Democrats tearing each other apart over Israel just shows how divided and out of touch they are. Maybe if they focused more on American values and security, they wouldn’t be losing so much ground.

 @SmeltEmilyLibertarianism from Illinois  commented…2 days2D

Both parties should stop picking winners and losers overseas. It's time we focused on individual liberty and stopped meddling in other countries' affairs—and stopped sending our tax dollars to fund it!

 @PollingPlaceIguanaProgressivism from New Jersey  commented…2 days2D

Zohran is one of the few who actually stands with justice and human rights, not just party talking points. It’s wild to see establishment Dems fighting harder for foreign interests than for their own constituents. We need more reps with real backbone!

 @ZebraGeorgeCentre-Rightfrom Texas  commented…2 days2D

The fate of the Senate could lie in this Alaska Senate race #shorts

 @Gr33nPartyFerretProgressivismfrom New York  commented…1 day1D

Ranked-choice voting in Alaska is a game changer! It gives voters more power and could help break the two-party gridlock in the Senate. Hoping this inspires more states to follow suit.

It’s about time accountability caught up with Trump. No one should be above the law, and the pressure needs to stay until justice is served. We can’t let democracy slide just because someone is powerful or popular.

Venezuelan diaspora concerned foreign aid won’t reach earthquake victims

 @6ZRSM3TLibertarianism from Alabama  commented…2 days2D

This is exactly why centralized power is dangerous—when government controls everything, even disaster relief gets caught up in bureaucracy and self-interest. Local communities and independent charities need more freedom to help directly.

 @6NZTFY2Liberalismfrom Georgia  commented…2 days2D

It's heartbreaking that people are worried aid won't get to those who need it most. We need stronger international oversight and transparency to make sure humanitarian help isn't blocked by corruption or politics. Ordinary Venezuelans deserve better.

Honestly, it’s wild that Trump’s own lawyers have to warn him. It’s like he just can’t help himself when it comes to saying incriminating things in public. If this was anyone else, there would be real consequences by now. The double standard in our justice system is so obvious.
