American patriotism hits a new low
CNN
On the eve of July Fourth -- our annual celebration of American independence (and fireworks!) -- pride in being an American has hit a record low in new Gallup polling.
Fewer than 4 in 10 -- 38% -- of adults said they were "extremely" proud to be Americas, the lowest ever measure by Gallup, which has been asking the question since 2001.

Canadians woke up Tuesday to an all-too-familiar troll ripping through their social media feeds. US President Donald Trump shared an image on Truth Social depicting him speaking to European leaders with an AI-generated map in the background, showing the US flag plastered over Canada, Greenland, and Venezuela.

A federal judge on Tuesday ripped into Lindsey Halligan, President Donald Trump’s personal choice as the top federal prosecutor in the Eastern District of Virginia, after she used unusually sharp language to push back on the judge’s questioning of her authority, saying the “unnecessary rhetoric” had “a level of vitriol more appropriate for a cable news talk show.”
