TREE HOUSE NEWS🏡

Land of Whispering Pines 🌲

Good morning! May the Great Spirit bless you 🙏

I got distracted on the way to the newsroom. I ran into my previous post about water on Mars. It stands to reason that if the planet once had abundant surface water, it had to have interior water as well, just like here on, or should I say, in the Earth. This article is interesting to me because I had already considered the issue about underground water on Mars since I was ten years old. There are many bodies of subterranean water inside our planet. Water tends to seek the lowest point of gravity. The concept is not new, but the previous posting certainly provides good validation.

Water will always flow downhill, seeking the lowest possible point it can reach due to the force of gravity.

As for the weather, GLOOMY! The ☁️ need 🥾 in 👖; they also brought crappy cool 🥶 temps with them. At least the clouds made themselves useful; it 🌧 . At this moment, it's a quiet and peaceful morning here in the newsroom. I wish I could say it was the same everywhere for everyone, a calm, peaceful morning. Let us pause for a moment to pray and meditate. 🙏 Sit back for a moment, relax, clear our minds, and allow our thoughts to flow freely. Think of a tranquil place, anyplace that pleases you in your conscious memory or imagination.

TODAY'S DISCUSSION:

~ IRITATION STATION ~

The only irritation that gets me going is when I start and everything is going smoothly, then suddenly a mistype occurs; one mistype is all it takes. It's like tripping over a log, and I just keep stumbling afterwards, ending up in the swamp with the gators. 🐊 😁 I wish I could stop doing that! I'm going to run out of pants. 👖 😲 Enough cartoons for today, now on with the discussion of the day.

I know it has something to do with the stream of thoughts going through my mind, which moves much quicker than the physical fingers can keep up with. Maybe a speed typist could, well, at least with fewer misspellings and typos. The mind has already thought the letter you want to type, but the fingers are about three moves or more behind. Thoughts can get away from you like that, too. Never stop to correct a typo or spelling error while composing a stream of thoughts; the stream gets instantly vaporized.

Focusing on the flow of ideas, rather than getting bogged down in minor errors, can help maintain momentum and prevent losing your train of thought.

Continue until you have reached the end of your train of thought, then go back and clean the mess. There's a delete button here; it performs the same function as the eraser on an HB pencil, which I used to carry with me to write down notes. Sometimes the mind gets confused, then lost. Nothing that a couple of puffs of the herb doesn't fix. Take a break, then come back, most times with a different perspective on the topic that usually turns out just as good or a better iteration. It's now time for the international news.

Senate to receive classified briefing as Pentagon says Iran strikes went as planned

Capitalizing on rare unity, Iran’s supreme leader sends a defiant message to Trump

In his first speech since a ceasefire was declared between Iran and Israel, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sent a clear message to US President Donald Trump: Tehran will “never surrender.”

The 86-year-old Khamenei, a target himself during the 12-day conflict, issued the pre-recorded statement from an undisclosed private location on Thursday. The leader has not appeared in public since Israel took out most of his military’s top brass and some of the country’s most prominent nuclear scientists in an unprecedented attack that deeply infiltrated the Islamic Republic.

Khamenei predictably declared victory over Israel and the United States in his address, but Trump’s call for “unconditional surrender” last week appears to have hit a nerve with Iran’s leader. Khamenei is a disciple of the 1979 Islamic Revolution that at its core aimed to preserve Iranian sovereignty against Western influence.

“This is not about our nuclear program. This is about Iran surrendering … In his statement, (Trump) revealed the truth, he showed his hand. The Americans have had a fundamental issue with Islamic Iran since our revolution.”

Analysis: Pentagon offers new details on Iran strikes, but no new intel that nuclear program was "obliterated"

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s contribution at a Pentagon briefing was melodramatic but failed to offer “irrefutable” evidence that Trump promised.

But Dan Caine, the nation’s top military officer, offered tantalizing new information about the strike against Iran’s Fordow nuclear plant to reinforce the administration’s belief that it was severely damaged even if he could not yet prove it was “obliterated” as Trump claims. Caine’s apolitical manner contrasted with days of White House spin.

Hegseth fulminated at the media for seeking proof of the President’s claims that Fordow had been “obliterated” and mispresented their reporting. He also accused outlets of missing Trump’s achievement in getting NATO partners to commit to spending 5% of GDP on defense by 2035. In fact, the announcement got wide coverage, from which the administration’s own defensive outbursts over Iran detracted .

Caine offered insights into two Defense Threat Reduction Agency officers who studied the subterranean nuclear plant at Fordow for 15 years to plan the strikes and the crews who flew the B-2 bombers...

Trump is creating new universes of people to deport

The full scope of the Trump administration’s mass deportation plan – which has been evident in theory – is only just starting to come together in practice, and its scale has come as a surprise to many Americans.

This week, the Supreme Court blessed, for now, the administration’s effort to deport people from countries such as Cuba and Venezuela to places other than their homeland, including nations halfway around the world in Africa.

In Florida, construction began on a migrant detention center intended to be a sort of Alcatraz in the Everglades.

And CNN reported exclusively that the administration will soon make a large universe of people who had been working legally after seeking asylum eligible for deportation. I went to the author of that report, CNN’s Priscilla Alvarez, and asked her to explain what we know and what we’re learning about how the different stories are coming together. One thing that stuck out to me is how the totality of the administration’s actions is turning people who had been working legally in the US into undocumented immigrants now facing deportation.

Ontario Expediting Process for U.S. Doctors, Nurses to Work in Province

Doctors and nurses licensed in the United States will soon be able to more easily practise in Ontario, under changes announced on June 5, 2025 by the minister of health.

According to the minister, the move will increase the number of health-care professionals working in the province. The province is enabling qualified U.S.-licensed physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, and registered practical nurses to start working in Ontario health settings before they register with the regulatory college.

They will be allowed to work for up to six months while seeking registration with either the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario or the College of Nurses of Ontario.

Doctors and nurses would still have to go through the usual immigration processes, and to qualify they must be licensed in their home jurisdiction with no history of misconduct or incompetence...
