🚨 Israel and Hezbollah have agreed to a ceasefire that took effect at 4 p.m. local time Friday, according to a senior U.S. official who spoke to Reuters.

The official said U.S. and Qatari negotiators brokered the deal with assistance from Iran. The announcement came after Israel killed at least 24 people Friday in attacks on civilian homes and neighborhoods, murdering entire families.

However, a senior Israeli official told Israel’s Channel 12 that a “ceasefire allows us to continue destroying infrastructure and acting against threats.”

Reuters reports that Israel and Hezbollah are now considered to be in a “ceasefire.”

🇮🇷 Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi pointed to a post by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, who declared “all of Lebanon must burn” after some Israeli soldiers were killed and injured while trying to seize more territory during a ceasefire.

Araghchi said it was “not a rant by a random genocidal lunatic” but a public post by a sitting senior Israeli minister. “The genocidal death cult headquartered in Tel Aviv is a threat to all of humanity,” he wrote. “Its only interest is permanent war.”

@marklevinshow Mark wants the Iran MOU released?

Translation: Bibi wants the target list.

USS Liberty already proved how this works: Isræl strikes, Washington panics, lobby pressure starts, and the evidence gets buried.

Watch the clip. Read the 🧵.

Pete Hegseth fired her. Now she's running for Congress.

Nancy Lacore, a retired three-star Navy vice admiral, has advanced to a June 23 Democratic primary runoff in South Carolina's 1st District - the House seat Rep. Nancy Mace is vacating to run for governor. Lacore was abruptly dismissed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth last August, part of a wave of senior military removals on Aug. 22, 2025. She has called her firing "without cause."

To be clear about where this stands: Lacore hasn't won anything yet. She's headed to a runoff against attorney Mac Deford on June 23 to decide who becomes the Democratic nominee. The winner of that contest moves on to November for a long-shot run at the seat - which the Cook Political Report rates as solidly Republican.

But the storyline writing itself is hard to miss. A career officer pushed out by the sitting Defense Secretary is now asking voters to send her to Washington, where she'd have a say over the very Pentagon that showed her the door.

Her campaign leans directly into that history - framing the dismissal as exactly the kind of accountability gap she wants to challenge from inside Congress. Mace, meanwhile, is stepping up to a statewide race, leaving one of the most Republican-leaning seats in the state suddenly without an incumbent.

It's an uphill climb in a district drawn to stay red. But a fired admiral on the ballot is the kind of race that makes people pay attention.
