Obama: Trump indictment ‘less than ideal’ but shows ‘nobody’s above the law’ In an interview with CNN’s Christiane Amanpour that will air Thursday, Obama said the indictment does not send the best message internationally because of signs that suggest democratic norms are being rolled back in the U.S. and throughout the world. “It’s less than ideal,” Obama said. “But the fact that we have a former president who is having to answer to charges brought by prosecutors does uphold the basic notion that nobody’s above the law, and the allegations will now be sorted out through a court process.” https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/4062633-obama-trump-indictment-less-than-ideal-but-shows-nobodys-above-the-law/

UPDATE: ‘Rust’ Armorer Transferred Narcotics on Day of Shooting, Prosecutor Says The original armorer on the film “Rust,” who was charged with involuntary manslaughter after a gun that was loaded with live ammunition fired on the set and killed the cinematographer, will face an additional charge of evidence tampering related to narcotics, a special prosecutor in the case said Thursday. The new charge against the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez-Reed, “relates to the transfer of narcotics to another person” on Oct. 21, 2021, the day of the shooting, “with the intent to prevent criminal prosecution,” the prosecutor, Kari T. Morrissey, said in a statement. A lawyer for Ms. Gutierrez-Reed said that she intended to plead not guilty to both the evidence tampering and the involuntary manslaughter charges. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/06/22/arts/rust-armorer-new-charge.html No Paywall Link

U.S. Navy Detected Titan Sub Implosion Days Ago A top secret U.S. Navy acoustic detection system designed to spot enemy submarines first heard the Titan sub implosion hours after the submersible began its mission, officials involved in the search said. The Navy began listening for the Titan almost as soon as the sub lost communications, according to a U.S. defense official.

The threat of Russian president Vladimir Putin using tactical nuclear weapons is “real”, his US counterpart Joe Biden said, days after denouncing Russia’s deployment of such weapons in Belarus. Mr Biden had termed Mr Putin’s announcement that Russia had deployed its first tactical nuclear weapons to Belarus “absolutely irresponsible” last week. This comes as Belarusian president Alexander Lukashenko said his country has started taking delivery of Russian tactical nuclear weapons, some of which he said were three times more powerful than the atomic bombs the US dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/russia-ukraine-war-putin-nuclear-threat-b2360560.html#post-1243878

Possible negotiations in the Ukraine war: Stoltenberg warns of false peace NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warns of a false peace in Ukraine. “We all want this war to end. But for peace to be lasting, it has to be fair,” he told Welt am Sonntag. “Peace cannot mean freezing the conflict and accepting a deal dictated by Russia. Only Ukraine alone can define the conditions that are acceptable,” added the former Norwegian prime minister. In this context, the NATO chief pointed out that military successes in the theater of war would strengthen Ukraine’s negotiating position: “The more occupied territory Ukraine can liberate, the better cards it has at the negotiating table in order to achieve a just and lasting peace. “ https://newsingermany.com/possible-negotiations-in-the-ukraine-war-stoltenberg-warns-of-false-peace/
