The Supreme Court ruled today that states can count timely postmarked ballots arriving after Election Day. Voting should be easy and accessible for all. As the Trump administration pushes to limit mail voting, we must keep fighting to protect every American's right to vote.

Ukraine’s Growing Drone Armada Is Overwhelming Russia’s Air Defenses https://t.co/IMq1qTKk5E

[Defense of Ukraine @DefenceU]

In just the past few days, Ukraine's Defence Forces hit an oil depot, gas compressor stations, "Pantsir" and S-400 air defense systems, and "Nebo-U" and "Kasta" radar stations across the peninsula.

"The tourist season in Crimea this year will be only for our drones." — Minister @FedorovMykhailo

Expect heavy fire, zero visibility for sunbathers.

[JP Lindsley | Journalist @JPLindsley]

Ukraine struck a Russian military factory in Voronezh with up to nine of the French-British precision Storm Shadow missiles.

The factory makes key components including semiconductors needed for Russia air defense, which is increasingly under strain as for the first time in four years, Ukraine is regularly punching back.

@BohuslavskaKate Demilitarize Russia!

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

ZELENSKYY: Ukraine has begun the process of bringing the war back to Russia.

Yesterday we struck oil refinery in Tyumen region, that’s already 2,070 km from our border.

We used brand-new drones with flight range of 2,500 km. They will soon be able to fly more than 3,000 km.

We will fly even further, beyond 3,000 km, because we know exactly where all Russian military plants, oil bases, gas storage facilities, and similar targets are located.

We need longer-range tools, and we are developing them right now. Of course, the number of our deep strikes into Russia will also increase every day.

The latest Association of American Railroads (AAR) weekly data reveals a significant 7.2% jump in total traffic, pointing to a resilient industrial recovery. Craig Fuller explains how raw rail freight data serves as a critical leading indicator for upcoming truckload demand.

While broader economic news continues to focus on consumer caution, the bulk sectors of the industrial economy are showing unexpected mid-year momentum—confirming that factories are loading up on source materials months ahead of their peak production cycles.

MADYAR DESTROYS RUSSIA'S LARGEST AIR BASES! A STRATEGIC APOCALYPSE FOR RUSSIAN AVIATION

The legendary Madyar, together with his fighters and units of Ukraine's Military Intelligence (HUR), carried out a large-scale combined attack. Ukrainian drones and missiles reportedly broke through air defenses and struck several of Russia's key strategic air bases simultaneously.

Among the targeted facilities:

Engels — the main base for Tu-95 and Tu-160 strategic bombers.

Dyagilevo — a major long-range aviation airfield.

Kursk, Olenya, Severny, and several other critically important military sites.

Powerful explosions reportedly erupted in aircraft parking areas, hangars, and ammunition depots. Fires spread across the facilities as military aircraft burned on the ground. Su-34s, Su-35s, Tu-95s, and Tu-160s were reportedly engulfed in flames, leaving behind charred metal wreckage.
