Earth's Future Oxygen Levels Are Set to Plummet, Scientists Warn

Protests erupted in Los Angeles over the weekend as the National Guard was deployed in response to escalating demonstrations against President Donald Trump's immigration policies. Thousands took to the streets, blocking a major freeway and igniting autonomous vehicles, while law enforcement employed tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse the crowds, according to the Los Angeles Police Department. This unrest began following a series of immigration raids that resulted in over 100 arrests in the area. Protesters, chanting phrases like "shame" and "go home," gathered outside the Metropolitan Detention Center. Governor Gavin Newsom criticized the National Guard's presence as a "serious breach of state sovereignty" and called for their withdrawal, stating it inflamed tensions in the city. Trump defended the deployment, citing a legal provision that permits military action during rebellions and accused state officials of failing to handle the protests targeting immigration agents. He indicated that federal troops would continue to be present until order is restored, escalating political divisions between state and federal authorities. Critics, including Senator Bernie Sanders, condemned the move as a step towards authoritarianism.

A public feud between Elon Musk and former President Donald Trump has significantly impacted the stock market, decreasing Tesla's market capitalization by $152 billion in just a few hours. Tensions escalated when Musk criticized Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill,” which aims to restrict immigration and limit green energy subsidies, and is projected to increase the U.S. deficit by $2.4 trillion. Trump responded on his platform, Truth Social, arguing Musk opposed the bill due to potential losses in electric vehicle tax credits. As Musk's comments on the X platform spiraled into personal attacks, Tesla's stock fell by approximately 14%, marking one of its largest single-day drops in years. Concurrently, TrumpCoin's value decreased by nearly 10%. Trump's suggestion to terminate Musk’s government contracts has heightened stakes, with key allies advising investigations into Musk's immigration status. This turmoil comes at a critical juncture for Tesla, which is set to launch its robotaxi service in Austin. The company is also grappling with disappointing quarterly results and mounting protests against its leadership, as a movement dubbed "Tesla Takedown" calls for consumer boycotts, with organizers releasing the slogan "Sell, Sell, Sell."

An intense manhunt is underway for Travis Decker, 32, whose three daughters were found dead in Chelan County, Washington. The girls, aged 5 to 9, were discovered on June 5, 2025, after being reported missing by their mother, Whitney Decker, on May 30. According to police, Whitney had recently dropped the girls off for a scheduled custody visit with Decker and became concerned when they did not return as expected. The discovery of the girls’ bodies, reportedly suffocated and tied up, has shocked the community. Authorities believe Decker may be hiding in local wilderness due to his extensive survival skills, as highlighted by the Chelan County Sheriff’s office. Washington Governor Bob Ferguson has mobilized National Guard resources to aid in the search, advising residents to remain cautious and secure their homes. Travis Decker, a former U.S. Army service member, is wanted for three counts each of murder and kidnapping. The ongoing crisis has raised discussions about mental health support for veterans, which may have contributed to the tragedy, as noted by advocacy groups.
