SpaceX Investor Ross Gerber tells me he’s not only “disgusted…from a humanity perspective” by restrictions on Starlink in Ukraine, but also: “…they've given everybody a reason not to use Starlink, that Starlink isn't reliable for national security for anybody but Trump.”

Eyewitness to the Israeli settler attack on Palestinians and The Washington Post photographer Heidi Levine tells me, “It was barbaric…there were maybe 5 or 6 surrounding her. They had clubs…And they were standing over her, beating her over and over, it was truly horrific. I was worried that she was going to be killed.” - jasper nathaniel

EU foreign minister Kaja Kallas tells me the Trump administration’s invitation to Putin for the G20 is “very hard to hear”‘particularly after the U.S. charged Russian operatives for plotting murder on U.S. soil. “And I can tell you they get orders from President Putin.”

Nobel laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk has documented Russian war crimes in Ukraine since its full-scale invasion. Her reaction to Trump saying Russia has been “fine”’ there?: “We document intentional murders of civilians every day…I'm sorry to say, but this presidential administration completely lost their ability to distinguish between good and evil.”

Gulp. Me: How much would a $100 pair of sneakers made in China or Vietnam cost if made in the U.S.? Footwear Distributors and Retailers of America’s Matt Priest: “$300 or $400 easily. In fact, we've even just looked at the tariffs coming into place tonight at midnight, a $150 pair of running shoes will be $230.”

“Even the apartheid regime in South Africa did not dare to say that if a black man kills a white man, he will be executed. But if a white man kills a black man, he will not be. What Israel did…it is exactly that saying that a Palestinian could be sentenced to death penalty, but an Israeli no for the same crime.” -Mustafa Barghouti @Mustafa_Barghouti on Israel’s new death penalty law.

Question: President Zelensky calls Trump’s diesel deal with Putin, quote, “additional money for this war.” Do you agree? Rep. Gregory Meeks: “Absolutely. 100%. Look, this is a betrayal to Ukraine, to our European allies. And it's the very this comes right after there was a bill that was passed in the house that allegedly was going to sanction Russia.”

Just how big was the Israeli “zero-click” malware attack? The Citizen Lab researcher Bill Marczak tells me, “The ads were at an enormous scale…hundreds of millions of impressions, meaning hundreds of millions of these ads were shown on devices over a period of a few months…even devices that don't get hacked, that aren't the quote, unquote real targets, there is still quite a bit of invasive data collection from those devices. So we're talking on the order of millions and millions of devices.”

I pressed senior Hamas official Osama Hamdan on whether Hamas accepts any responsibility for the loss of civilian life in Gaza, which residents have told CNN they believe it does. He wouldn’t answer and instead took me on a history lesson of events he didn’t know I witnessed myself.

The Trump administration has now refused three times to criticize Russia for supplying intelligence to Iran on the location and movements of U.S. forces in the Mideast. Trump said last night “I’d guess they’d say we do it against them.” Rep. Eric Swalwell calls it “a stunning ten-year record of failing to condemn Russia.”

Question: On the Siberia outbreak, should the US govt have any confidence in cooperation or accurate information sharing by Russia? Annie Jacobsen: “Quite the opposite…they're going to give us zero accurate information. They are not going to be transparent. And that has to do with the fact that biological weapons are illegal.“

Tonight on Anderson Cooper 360° I shared how US commanders at NORAD praised their Canadian partners when I visited. So I asked Scott Jennings if SecDef Hegseth should be attacking them. His answer: “The Canadians have been good allies…if I were Sec Hegseth I would think about all my public communications this way. Does this advance or enhance what my missions are for the President…that would be my humble advice.”

Jim: Do you believe Democrats should force Trump to testify if you were to retake control of congress this fall? Rep. Dan Goldman: “I can guarantee you, Jim, that we are going to use that exact precedent that Chmn Comer set in completely unreasonably turning the screws on a former president to force him to testify on videotape about things that may be completely unrelated to the investigation, rather than to negotiate in good faith as he's required to do. So if that's the precedent the Republicans are going to set, then we are going to follow that. And if that means that it's the president's kids, if that means it's any cabinet official, if that means it's any qatari prince, and including Donald Trump, you can be sure that we are going to use that same standard.”

Question: What reason does President Trump have to give Putin yet one more chance? GOP French Hill: “This has been unsatisfactory to me for five painful years. The only thing the Russians understand is force. The only thing that Putin will understand is a united front between the allies to Ukraine to bring peace to Ukraine.”

Question: Is there any precedent even close for a U.S. President making this much money personally while in office? Fmr WH ethics lawyer Richard W. Painter: “None ever. We've never seen this much money made by U.S. President. We've never seen substantial conflicts of interest for any U.S. President since the Civil War. Financial conflicts of interest. Every other president has voluntarily divested themselves of conflicts of interest with the presidency, except for Donald Trump .”

What is life like under Russian assault and with less and less U.S. support? I asked 23-year-old Kyiv resident Katya, who told me “It feels like the world is forgetting about us…sometimes it feels like we are abandoned. On Monday, a building near to me was hit by a drone…an area with a kids playground and they didn't have any alert.”

“This smells horribly. This is a kleptocracy in Caracas, dealing with a kleptocracy in the US. This is not in the in the interest of the Venezuelan people. It's an illegitimate deal that is done by an interim president that pretends to allocate 65 billion a barrels of reserves.” - Fmr Venezuelan Planning Minister Ricardo Hausmann
