El Nino is here and scientists fear it’ll be big, bad and costly with heat, floods, droughts, fires

El NinoEl Nino, Nature’s chaotic climate agent, has formed in a warmed-up Pacific Ocean and is expected to grow to historic strength, meteorologists announced Thursday.

Experts said the El Nino, a natural warming cycle, should further heat a globe already warming from fossil fuel pollution and will likely turbocharge extreme weather across the planet. Meteorologists forecast it will rival — or exceed — a record El Nino that began in 1997 and helped trigger billions of dollars in damage from heat waves, floods, droughts, tornadoes and wildfires.

The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration officially confirmed the existence of the El Nino, which is a warming of the Pacific near the equator that affects weather patterns across the globe. NOAA’s announcement said there’s a 63% chance that the El Nino will get so intense this late fall and early winter that it “would rank among the largest El Nino events in the historical record going back to 1950.”

The warm, deep waters of an El Nino affect weather patterns by bringing “a lot of extra heat to the surface, fueling a lot of extreme events for a lot of places around the world,” said Clark University climate scientist Abby Frazier.

Trump snaps back to dealmaker after tempting all-out war

PTrump whiplashes attack plansresident Trump on Thursday whipsawed between threatening new, major attacks against Iran and touting significant progress in negotiations to end the war, the latest frantic episode in the conflict that’s gone on for more than 100 days.

Trump said the U.S. would hit Iran “very hard” and eventually take over its oil export hub Kharg Island in a Truth Social post at 8:22 a.m. EDT on Thursday, about five hours before calling them off.

“Discussions and final points have been, in both concept and great detail, approved by all parties involved,” Trump said in a post at 1:28 p.m. EDT.

Trump’s team has been focused on striking an agreement with Iran to allow commercial and oil ships free and safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, and to restart negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program. 

He said the U.S. naval blockade against Iranian oil exports in the Strait of Hormuz “will remain in full force and effect until this Transaction is finalized — Time and place of the signing to be announced shortly.”

Trump taps prosecutor Jay Clayton as intelligence director. What to know

Jay ClaytonJay Clayton, President Donald Trump’s new pick to become the nation’s top intelligence official, has a long resume in business law, but little known experience in the spy world.

Trump announced June 11 that he will nominate Clayton, 59, for the position of director of national intelligence, which requires Senate confirmation.

“Few people anywhere in the Legal Community are respected at the level of Jay,” Trump announced on his Truth Social media platform. “I encourage the United States Senate to confirm Jay as soon as possible.”

If confirmed, Clayton would succeed Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's first director of national intelligence who resigned in May to spend more time with her husband after his cancer diagnosis.

US Park Police investigate giant ‘8647’ seen in grass on National Mall

8647 on Nat'l MallThe numbers “8647” appeared in large scale on the grass of the National Mall on Thursday, June 11, only days before President Donald Trump’s birthday, prompting an investigation from the U.S. Park Police.

According to Reuters, park officials said they responded to the National Mall at around 11:30 a.m. local time to see a tracing of the numbers “8647” on the grass of the west lawn of the mall. Photos taken by Reuters from the top of the Washington Monument clearly show the numbers “8” and “7”, while the numbers “6” and “4” are more faintly visible.

"The cause of the discoloration has not yet been determined," Park Police said in a statement to Reuters. "Grass samples have been collected for testing. The investigation is ongoing."

The incident comes as the National Mall is set to host events celebrating the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence and only weeks before a 16-day “Great American State Fair” is set to take place at the Mall.

Israel Intensifies the Killing in Gaza as the World Looks Away

Israel intensifies Gaza attacksEight-year-old Jad Suleiman was walking home from school in the Jabaliya refugee camp in northern Gaza on Monday when the Israeli airstrike hit. A piece of shrapnel lodged in his neck, killing him instantly. Outside Shifa hospital, his body lay on a stretcher wrapped in a loose white sheet. Dressed in jeans and a blue and red checkered shirt, the smallness of his body was accentuated by his oversized backpack, still on his limp shoulders.

Jad’s father, Youssef Suleiman, was beyond grief. He wept uncontrollably as he bent over his son’s lifeless body, caressing and kissing his face. “I am not able to speak,” Suleiman told Drop Site News. He was breathing heavily, almost gasping for air. He had removed his son’s backpack and was clutching it to his chest. “My son is 8 years old. What was his crime? He was coming home from school. This is his bag, there is blood on it. This is the bag. This is the bag,” he repeated, unable to continue.

Three Palestinians were killed in the attack, including eight-year-old Jad and a 70-year-old man. Several others were wounded in the strike and brought into Shifa on stretchers, bloodied and wincing in pain.

“You leave your house, not knowing whether you are going to return or whether you are going to die,” Jad’s aunt, Warda Muhaysin, told Drop Site. “There is blood in the streets. It’s enough. Enough…where is the ceasefire people are talking about?”

Israel is ethnically cleansing Palestinian Bedouins, major new report finds

Israel thnoically cleansing BedouinsA campaign of ethnic cleansing of Palestinian Bedouins in the occupied West Bank is being driven not by rogue extremists, but by the Israeli state, according to a major new report. 

Amnesty International published the new 150-page report on Wednesday. 

It found that Israeli authorities were committing the crime against humanity of forcible transfer, through a “state-driven campaign of ethnic cleansing targeting Palestinian Bedouin and herding communities in Area C of the occupied West Bank”. 

Area C makes up around 60 percent of the total area of the West Bank, and is under military and civil control of Israeli authorities - in contravention of international law. 

According to Amnesty’s report, the Israeli government has expanded gun licences and the number of armed settlers in the area, increased funding for illegal settlements, and accelerated the construction of settlements and the legalisation of outposts.

Israel 'emptying' Al-Aqsa facilities to undermine Waqf, watchdog warns

Isreal emptying mosqueIsrael has emptied four facilities within the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex that served as offices for the Islamic Waqf, in what a monitoring group has described as an escalating campaign against the Jordanian-backed body.

The Al-Quds International Institution, a Palestinian organisation that monitors developments in Jerusalem, said on Tuesday that Israeli authorities have used "manufactured security pretexts" to target the facilities.

According to the group, Israeli forces raided the sites in recent months, broke their locks and prevented the installation of replacements.

The facilities were then left open, while anyone attempting to enter them was expelled because they had been used for "activities that threaten security".

The four sites are the Dome of Imam al-Ghazali, located above the Bab al-Rahma prayer hall along the eastern wall of the complex; Dar al-Hadith al-Sharif in the northeastern section of Al-Aqsa; Qubbat Sulayman, an open-air domed shrine opposite King Faisal Gate; and Qubbat Musa, located near Bab al-Silsila (Chain Gate).

Ukraine Approves Record Defense Budget Increase

Ukraine appproves record defense budgetUkraine is increasing defense and security spending by UAH 1.56 trillion ($34.6 billion), bringing total 2026 security and defense expenditures to a record UAH 4.4 trillion ($97.6 billion), Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko said.

Svyrydenko thanked members of parliament for supporting amendments to the 2026 state budget, saying the decision would allow Kyiv to allocate additional resources to finance the Defense Forces and protect civilians.

Following the amendments, total security and defense expenditures will amount to UAH 4.4 trillion ($97.6 billion). Of this, UAH 2.3 trillion ($51 billion) will be allocated for the purchase of weapons and military equipment, while more than UAH 1.45 trillion ($32.2 billion) will go toward financial support for military personnel.

Inflation tops 4% for the first time in 3 years on spike in gasoline prices

Inflation at 4%Soaring gasoline prices, triggered by the U.S. war with Iran, have pushed inflation to its highest level in more than three years.

A report from the Labor Department on Wednesday showed consumer prices in May were up 4.2% from a year ago. That's the biggest annual increase since April of 2023. By contrast, the Labor Department says average wages have risen only 3.4% over the last year, so workers' real spending power has declined.

Prices rose 0.5% between April and May, with higher energy costs accounting for more than 60% of that monthly increase. Gas prices have jumped by well over a dollar a gallon since the war began, strangling shipping traffic in the Strait of Hormuz — a critical pathway for much of the world's oil supply.

Higher fuel costs also pushed up airfares in May. Airline tickets cost about 27% more than they did a year ago.
