‘A Biden-appointed federal judge ordered the Trump administration to restore exhibits and other materials at national parks that highlighted slavery, climate change and other leftist ideology after they were removed under a directive targeting displays deemed disparaging to America.

U.S. District Judge Angel Kelley in Massachusetts, appointed to the federal bench by former President Joe Biden in 2021, issued a preliminary injunction Friday requiring the administration to reverse the changes and pause any further removals amid legal challenges.

The move comes amid the America 250 celebrations that will crescendo on July 4.

The Interior Department in a statement called Kelley a “liberal activist judge” and said it was reviewing its options to appeal its removal of what Secretary Doug Burgum rebuked as “improper partisan ideology.”…’ (Eric Mack via Fox News)

‘”We’re afraid some of our most sensitive conversations were being recorded,” an administration source told us. “And we have no idea which ones.” Verbatim accounts of several Situation Room meetings were included in excerpts about the Iran war and the Epstein files that The Times posted ahead of the book’s June 23 publication.

The authors conducted more than 1,000 interviews for “Regime Change,” which covers Trump’s second term. Tellingly, White House officials haven’t disputed verbatim dialogue from the top-secret Sit Room talks, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying about Bibi’s regime-change scenarios for Iran: “In other words, it’s bullshit.”

We hear President Trump is furious about the blow-by-blow accounts. Haberman and Swan refused to comment.

Reality check: Haberman and Swan didn’t need audio recordings. Bob Woodward pioneered contemporary historical political journalism by including dialogue in his books that was reconstructed from the memories of people in the rooms where things happened….’ (Jim VandeHei via Axios)

‘Sometimes it feels like a glaring design flaw that we have to power down for six to nine hours a day just to keep the brain from frying. Now, according to a new study published in Nature Neuroscience, scientists may have found a way to give us all the benefits of sleep without actually going to sleep….’ ([object Object] via Vice)

Researchers recreated a deep-sleep brain rhythm in mice that remained fully awake and mobile. Mice that stayed awake while receiving the artificial sleep rhythm performed as well as fully rested mice, and molecular markers in their brains mirrored changes typically seen after natural sleep.

The investigators emphasized that this is not a practical shortcut for avoiding sleep. The method required genetic engineering and implanted brain electrodes, and natural sleep appears to restore the brain more evenly across regions.

Even so, the findings strikingly identify a specific electrical signal associated with restorative sleep and show that at least some benefits of sleep can be approximated by artificially reproducing that rhythm.

‘What if some black holes aren’t black holes at all? A new theoretical study suggests that when a massive star collapses, it might not form a singularity hidden behind an event horizon. Instead, the collapse could trigger the birth of a tiny new universe inside the dying star. Driven by dark energy, this miniature cosmos would expand and push back against gravity, preventing complete collapse and creating an exotic object known as a gravastar….’ (via ScienceDaily)
