An Indiana chapter of the right-wing group Moms for Liberty this week scrambled to explain why it led its first-ever newsletter with a quote from mass-murdering Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. As reported by the Indianapolis Star, the Moms for Liberty chapter in Hamilton County, Indiana started off its recent newsletter with a quote from Hitler that stated, "He alone, who OWNS the youth, GAINS the future." The group, which dedicates itself to getting school libraries to ban books that it finds offensive, posted a clarification about the quote on its Facebook page shortly after the newsletter published. "The quote from a horrific leader should put parents on alert," the group said. "If the government has control over our children today, they control our country's future. We The People must be vigilant and protect children from an overreaching government."

When people are looking for abortion services, they often turn to Google, searching a phrase like "abortion clinic near me" or "planned parenthood." Yet the ads they'll see at the top of the Google search results are often not abortion providers at all, but instead misleading ads for anti-abortion "crisis pregnancy centers" — facilities that use various tactics to dissuade or delay pregnant people from getting an abortion. Any delay or confusion can have serious consequences: Strict bans in much of the country mean people seeking surgical abortions may have to travel hundreds of miles, and ordering abortion pills by mail can be legally thorny.

Scientists are currently searching for the submerged remains of an interstellar object that crashed into the skies near Papua New Guinea in January 2014 and probably sprinkled material from another star system into the Pacific Ocean, according to an onboard diary by Avi Loeb, the Harvard astronomer who is leading the expedition. The effort, which kicked off on June 14, aims to recover what is left of the otherworldly fireball using a deep-sea magnetic sled. The team has already turned up “anomalous” magnetic spherules, steel shards, curious wires, and heaps of volcanic ash, but has not identified anything that is unambiguously extraterrestrial—or interstellar—at this point. However, Loeb is optimistic that the crew will identify pieces of Interstellar Meteor 1 (IM1), the mysterious half-ton object that struck Earth nearly a decade ago, which he thinks could be an artifact, or “technosignature,” from an alien civilization.

The attempt at deceptive camouflage is likely a response to the Ukrainian Navy’s maritime drone threat. These use cameras to identify the target. Possibly the scheme is intended to confuse the drone operators into mistaking it for a less valuable target.

The storm developed because the highly energetic expulsion of magma happened to blast through the shallow ocean, Van Eaton said. Molten rock vaporized the seawater, which rose up into the plume and eventually formed electrifying collisions between volcanic ash, supercooled water, and hailstones. The perfect storm for lightning.

A utility lineman working to restore power in Texas has died and officials suspect the high temperatures are a factor. A public official in East Texas told CBS19 that the 35-year-old man was found unresponsive after working in the hot sun on Monday, June 19.

Richard Garriott, President of The Explorers Club, was also optimistic, writing in a social media post “there is cause for hope.” “We have much greater confidence that there is cause for hope, based on data from the field — we understand that likely signs of life have been detected at the site.”

The ITER project formally began in 2006, when its international partners agreed to fund an estimated €5 billion (then $6.3 billion), 10-year plan that would have seen ITER come online in 2016. The most recent official cost estimate stands at more than €20 billion ($22 billion), with ITER nominally turning on scarcely two years from now.

A far-right group that promotes book bans and COVID conspiracies and seeks to limit classroom discussion about race and LGBTQ identities is promoting the appearance of a Democratic presidential candidate scheduled to appear at an event the group is holding this summer. Moms for Liberty on Tuesday announced that anti-vaccine advocate Robert Kennedy Jr. will be among the group’s guest speakers at its “Joyful Warriors National Summit.”

Across the United States, Moms for Liberty chapters have forged close relationships with far-right extremist groups.

Former state legislator Lashrecse Aird has defeated incumbent Democratic Sen. Joe Morrissey in a closely watched primary election in Virginia that centered on abortion rights. Aird is a former member of the state House of Delegates and ran a campaign heavily focused on Morrissey’s position on abortion. Morrissey supports some limits on abortion access. Both parties and both General Assembly chambers had competitive contests on Tuesday, including in some of the swing districts that will help determine the balance of power come November. An unusually high number of sitting officeholders were also facing serious challenges in an election season that’s been upended by new political maps.
