\n
• \n

  Micah Lasher has won the Democratic primary for the US House seat in New York’s 12th congressional district, which is being vacated by veteran congressman Jerry Nadler. A self-described “nerd”, Lasher defeated Kennedy grandson Jack Schlossberg and state representative Alex Bores for the coveted nomination.

\n

• \n

  Brad Lander, a progressive ally of New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, easily won the Democratic primary in New York’s 10th congressional district, defeating the more moderate incumbent Democrat, Dan Goldman.

\n

• \n

  Mamdani was at Lander’s victory party in Brooklyn, taking to the stage to celebrate his ally’s primary win. Mamdani and Lander – who “cross-endorsed” each other in the city’s mayoral race in an effort to use the city’s ranked-choice voting system to ensure a progressive victory – embraced on stage before Lander went on to thank the New York City mayor.

\n

• \n

  Another Mamdani-backed candidate, Claire Valdez, defeated another progressive, the Brooklyn borough president Antonio Reynoso, and is now likely to win the general election in New York district 7 to replace the retiring incumbent, Nydia Velázquez.

\n

• \n

  Darializa Chevalier – a third Mamdani-backed candidate – has won the Democratic nomination for New York’s 13th congressional district.

\n

• \n

  US army veteran Cait Conley has won the Democratic primary in New York’s 17th congressional district in the lower Hudson Valley. She will face the vulnerable incumbent Republican congressman Mike Lawler in a district narrowly won by Kamala Harris in 2024.

\n

• \n

  Nancy Lacore, a three-star navy rear-admiral fired by Pete Hegseth last year in the defense secretary’s purge of senior US military officials, has won the Democratic nomination in a runoff for a closely watched congressional race in South Carolina.

\n

• \n

  South Carolina’s attorney general, Alan Wilson, is projected to have won the Republican nomination for governor, defeating Trump-backed lieutenant governor Pamela Evette.

Brad’s victory is a win for everyone who supports equality and justice for all. We share this victory with all New Yorkers — Jewish, Muslim, immigrant, queer and trans, and all those who want a better future for ourselves and our neighbors. Over the course of his campaign, IfNotNow Movement members knocked on doors, made calls to our neighbors, and hosted Brad for Shabbat. We were proud to endorse Brad and support his campaign because he’s been fighting for our communities for years — as a member and supporter of IfNotNow Movement and as an organizer and political leader in New York City. Now we’re ready to send Brad to Congress in November, pass the “Block the Bombs” Act, and bring an end to Israel’s war crimes in Gaza, Lebanon, and the West Bank.

“He ran a bold, unapologetically Jewish campaign that rejected pro-war lobbies like AIPAC and the endless flow of U.S. weapons to Israel. And his vision won resoundingly”, Kaplan said. “Brad understands that the only true path to safety for the Jewish people, and all people, is shared safety. That means fighting fascism, building solidarity, and supporting freedom and dignity for Palestinians and Israelis. We’re proud to fight alongside him. Mazel tov, Brad!”

Brad Lander, a progressive ally of New York mayor Zohran Mamdani, easily won the Democratic primary in New York’s 10th congressional district, defeating the more moderate incumbent Democrat, Dan Goldman.

The race between two Jewish New Yorkers focused largely on their very different stances on Israel and its war on Gaza. Lander, a former New York City comptroller who divested from State of Israel bonds while in office, has described the Israeli assault on Gaza since the October 2023 Hamas attack as a genocide and called Israel an apartheid state for ruling over millions of Palestinians denied civil or political rights in occupied territories.

Goldman, like many Democrats, has tried to blame Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, for its assault on Gaza and mistreatment of Palestinians, but Lander, who calls himself “a proud Jew” more closely represents the sentiments of New York’s left-leaning Jewish community that increasingly sees the need to question Israel and withhold military aid.

New York City is known for quick counting of votes, in part because large numbers of votes cast and counted before election day are reported as soon as the polls close. Votes cast on election day are counted by machines soon after that.

Jack Schlossberg, the 33-year-old grandson of John F Kennedy, is arguably the most high-profile of those running in the district being vacated by longterm congressman Jerry Nadler, but his meme-heavy campaign appears to have fallen behind Micah Lasher, a New York state representative and self-described nerd, and Alex Bores, a state representative whose campaign has become a proxy war between AI companies.

AI investors have poured money into Super Pacs opposing Bores, furious over state legislation he proposed to regulate the industry. The primary contest also features George Conway, the Republican turned vocal Trump critic who has out-raised the field. Running on an aggressively anti-Trump platform, Conway has vowed to hold the president accountable if elected.

Since Donald Trump claimed on Tuesday that six people have been arrested “for the damage they did to” the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, it seems worth keeping tabs on who, exactly, has been arrested, and what crimes they have been charged with.

One DC resident seen on video being dragged away from the reflecting pool in handcuffs on Monday is Christian Miles, a freelance video editor who told the Guardian on Tuesday that he was charged with violating a federal obscenity law for berating a group of Oklahoma state troopers guarding the reflecting pool.

Miles, a former US Navy submariner, has made it a personal project in recent months to “document the creeping police state” since Donald Trump’s federal takeover of policing in Washington DC by filming himself confronting, and often berating, federal troops and officer around the city.

He told the Guardian that he plans to contest the administrative law charge that he violated section 2.34 (a) (2) of the Code of Federal Regulations, which prohibits disorderly conduct by someone who uses “language, an utterance, or gesture, or engages in a display or act that is obscene, physically threatening or menacing, or done in a manner that is likely to inflict injury or incite an immediate breach of the peace.”

Miles posted an edited video of his encounter with the Oklahoma troopers on YouTube, which seems to be similar in nature to his previous encounters over the past 10 months with other officers and troops. The only difference, it seems, is that this run-in took place after the president started to claim that vandals, not shoddy work by his hand-picked contractors, was to blame for the rapidly deteriorating condition of the renovated reflecting pool.

In an email to the Guardian, Miles noted the irony that one of the Oklahoma state troopers he argued with before his arrest told him that the US was obviously a free society “because you can be out here and you can video all you want to … Go to China, they’d run over you in a tank in Red Square.”

As we explained earlier, when Congress created the war powers resolution mechanism in 1973, lawmakers intended such resolutions to be binding orders to presidents, enabling Congress to end hostilities.

A decade later, a supreme court decision in an unrelated case on a technical matter cast into doubt the power of Congress to compel US presidents to withdraw forces from active combat.

After the Senate passed a war powers resolution on Iran on Tuesday, directing Donald Trump to withdraw US forces, the senior Democrat in the Senate, Chuck Schumer, seemed to suggest that the supreme court ruling should be challenged, by writing on social media that the measure is binding on the president.

“Today, Congress stood up to Donald Trump and voted to end his costly, unnecessary, and devastating war with Iran”, Schumer wrote. “Let me be clear: for the first time, this resolution has passed both chambers of Congress and does not require the President’s signature. The message from the only branch of government with the power to declare war is unmistakable: the Trump administration must withdraw U.S. forces from hostilities in Iran.”

As our colleague Chris Stein explains, the war powers resolution passed by the US Senate on Tuesday, which first passed the House on June 3, says that Congress “directs the President to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran”, but is more of a rebuke than an order, since such resolutions have not carried the force of law since a 1983 supreme court case, on an unrelated technical matter, said that the president has to agree.

When the mechanism was created by Congress in 1973, however, such resolutions were intended to be binding on presidents, having the full force of law, to allow Congress to assert its role, enshrined in the US constitution, to declare war.

Michael J. Glennon, a professor of international law at Tufts University, and a former legal counsel to the Senate foreign relations committee argued in March that the 1983 supreme court ruling that made such resolutions symbolic rather than binding, was wrongly decided and should be overturned.

“On a humid afternoon in the summer of 1973, a conference committee of House and Senate negotiators agreed, behind the closed doors of S-116 of the Capitol, to include a provision in the War Powers Resolution that, more than anything else within it, would have restored Congress’s constitutional war powers”, Glennon wrote for the law and policy journal Just Security.

The provision in question is Section 5(c) of the Resolution, the so-called legislative veto. A legislative veto is a statutory mechanism that gives legal effect to a measure adopted by Congress without submitting it to the President for signature or veto. Section 5(c) provides that the President shall remove American armed forces from “hostilities” upon the adoption of a concurrent resolution directing him to do so. A concurrent resolution takes effect immediately upon adoption by both Houses without presentation to the President.

\n

That provision could be used today by Congress to halt an unauthorized war … It could be, that is, had the Supreme Court not cast its validity into doubt ten years after the Resolution’s enactment. The case that did so, INS v. Chadha, decided in 1983, has itself since fallen into legal difficulty… The case should now be overruled, or at minimum, held inapplicable to the legislative veto embedded in Section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution.

Glennon, who was present in the Senate chamber in 1973 when Congress overrode Richard Nixon’s veto of the War Powers Resolution bill and it became law, went on to argue that vice-president JD Vance was simply wrong when he said in January that “every president, Democrat or Republican, believes that the war powers act is fundamentally a fake and unconstitutional law”. The act, Glennon noted, “is the duly enacted law of the United States, sustained over presidential objection by a constitutionally prescribed supermajority”.

Senator Jim Risch, an Idaho Republican, explained that he was voting no in part because “a concurrent resolution process… has been held unconstitutional by the United States supreme court, so whatever happens with this, its going to have no effect, the president isn’t going to pay any attention to it.”

The Senate has for the first time approved a war powers resolution seeking to curb US military action against Iran, as lawmakers warily watch Donald Trump’s efforts to resolve a conflict that the administration launched on its own and now needs Congress to fund.

This was the 10th time the Senate had tried to stop the war, and the outcome, on a vote of 50-48, was a stunning turnaround from past efforts. While the resolution is largely symbolic, and does not fully carry the force of law, it reflects the growing concerns from a number of GOP lawmakers in both the House and Senate over both the war and the deal Trump has struck with Iran to end it. The House approved the resolution earlier this month.

The phone call came after Israeli soldiers shot and killed two in southern Lebanon – an attack that Hezbollah said violated the ceasefire agreement. On Telegram, Israel Defense Forces said its soldiers had struck “armed terrorists” that posed an immediate threat to Israeli soldiers but Hezbollah said that the soldiers had fired upon civilians.

Donald Trump is now claiming that six people have been arrested and seven cited for alleged damage to the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. That’s up from the five arrests and another five federal citations CBS reported yesterday.

Trump’s ill-fated renovation of the reflecting pool – aimed at turning the water “American flag blue” – has been thwarted by algal blooms and peeling paint and liner. But the president has not acknowledged any issues with the $14m renovation of the pool that he ordered to be completed in time for the Fourth of July holiday, and has instead resorted to blaming “vandals”.

Yesterday, he claimed there was one alleged gash that was 300 ft long in the lining at the bottom of the pool, having previously claimed it was 250 ft.

Providing no evidence for the allegations, Trump went on, writing on Truth Social: “The 350 foot gash, made by a very sharp knife or razors, is actually numerous slashes over a very long 350 foot length. It was purposefully and criminally done, and somebody had to work very hard, probably in the dark of night, to create such a condition. Likewise, the small area at the bottom of the Pool was cut and powerfully lifted off the surface leaving very jagged, uneven edges.”

He went on: “The large areas of grass are being replaced. In any event, even prior to fixing those areas, the Reflecting Pool is as beautiful as it can be. We will drain some of the water, either immediately before or after the Fourth of July, to do the permanent repair.”

The justice department, which argued against the plaintiffs in the no-fly list case in the first Trump administration, had sided with Landor.

No one defended what happened to Landor during his five-month prison term in 2020. When he entered the prison system, he carried a copy of an appeals court ruling in another prisoner’s case holding that cutting religious prisoners’ dreadlocks violated the federal law.

At his first two stops, officials respected his beliefs. But things changed when he got to the Raymond Laborde Correctional Center in Cottonport, about 80 miles northwest of Baton Rouge, for the final three weeks of his term.

A prison guard took the copy of the ruling Landor carried and tossed it in the trash, according to court records. Then the warden ordered guards to cut his dreadlocks. While two guards restrained him, a third shaved his head to the scalp, the records show.

“When I was strapped down and shaved, it felt like I was raped,” Landor said in a statement to ABC at the time. “And the guards, they just didn’t care. They will treat you any kind of way. They knew better than to cut my hair, but they did it anyway. That’s what they do. They were just using their authority.”

The justices reversed a lower court’s decision that had breathed new life into the 2011 lawsuit, which was brought under the Alien Tort Statute of 1789. The suit ⁠had alleged that Cisco knowingly developed technology that allowed China’s government to surveil and persecute Falun Gong members.

The statute had been dormant for nearly two centuries before lawyers began using it in the 1980s to bring international ⁠human rights cases in US courts. The Cisco case posed the question of whether the law creates liability for corporations that “aid and abet” human ​rights abuses, a form of what is called accomplice liability.

Greene resigned from Congress earlier this year after a massive falling out with Donald Trump over his handling of the Epstein files. A former Trump loyalist, she had by then also broken with the party in other areas, becoming the first Republican to label Israel’s war in Gaza a “genocide”, as well as casting doubt on economic, healthcare and foreign policy positions that she said do not prioritize working-class Americans and were not “America first”.

They are making decisions on the basis of other criteria, what’s best for this company, what’s best for Israel, what’s best for our donors. That’s not just, like, they are off in the wrong direction, like, that is unacceptable, that’s treasonous, it’s immoral, it can’t continue.

\n

There’s no defending this because it’s immoral. And it’s exactly the opposite of what a political party in a democracy is charged with doing, which is representing its own voters, its own citizens, its own nation. And they’re not doing that.

Today is the state primary elections in New York, Maryland and Utah. Here are some of the races to watch:

New York state has more than twice as many registered Democrats than Republicans as of 2025 – but with the success of the progressive New York city mayor Zohran Mamdani, the question now is how blue can this blue state go.

Mamdani has thrown his support behind three congressional candidates who are challenging incumbents or incumbent-backed candidates supported by the Democratic establishment: former city comptroller Brad Lander who is up against two-term incumbent Democrat Dan Goldman in NY-10, political newcomer Darializa Avila Chevalier who is challenging incumbent Democrat Adriano Espaillat in NY-13, and Claire Valdez who is facing off against Brooklyn borough president Antonio Reynoso – the handpicked successor of Nydia Velázquez, the first Puerto Rican woman to serve in Congress who is considered a progressive giant of New York City politics – in NY-7.

Elsewhere in New York, AI-focused Super Pacs have been pouring money into a single Manhattan race: the Democratic congressional primary in the district of NY-12.

That money has primarily been going toward taking down Democratic assembly member Alex Bores, who a year ago had sponsored the Raise Act, the second-ever US state law requiring major AI developers to publish public safety plans.

Challenging Bores for the Democratic nomination to represent New York’s 12th district in the House of Representatives is Jack Schlossberg, the very online grandson of John F Kennedy, and George Conway, the Republican turned vocal Trump critic.
