We're joined by ocean policy expert David Helvarg to discuss the Trump administration's dismantling of the Ocean Observatories Initiative, the "cutting-edge eyes [and] ears" of the ocean. The program's closure, proposed in the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 playbook for Trump's second administration, involves the decommissioning of a vast network of ocean floor sensors that collect data on marine ecosystems, ocean currents and global climate data, protecting the world's oceans and providing critical information about extreme weather. In their place is the increasingly unregulated expansion of resource extraction driven by the fossil fuel industry, "essentially developing the ocean for offshore oil drilling and mining — basically, as a gas station and a garbage dump."
Helvarg, the author of Forest of the Sea: The Remarkable Life and Imperiled Future of Kelp, also discusses "the world's other forest crisis": the loss of over half of kelp forests to warming ocean temperatures, throwing coastal ecosystems deeply out of balance. "We have an ocean," adds Helvarg. "It's full of life. It's at risk. And we need to better understand the other 71% of our blue marble planet to protect it — and not to let a few individuals and corporations destroy it."

Israel is continuing to carry out attacks on Lebanon amid ongoing talks between the U.S. and Iran to end the war. Iran is maintaining its demand that Lebanon be included in a ceasefire deal. Lylla Younes, an investigative journalist based in Beirut, says President Trump's claims that he wants peace with Iran are "absurd" because the United States continues to support "Israel's aggression in southern Lebanon." She argues that "an angry phone call between Netanyahu and Donald Trump is ultimately meaningless" as long as Israel is granted "impunity and arms." Younes also talks about reporting she did for Drop Site News on the ethnic cleansing in Ain Arab, a village in southern Lebanon.

President Trump on Monday attended the third game of the NBA Finals at Madison Square Garden in New York City. The San Antonio Spurs beat the New York Knicks, who hadn't lost a game since late April. The crowd booed when Trump was shown on the jumbotron.
"This was supposed to be a day about the Knicks. It was supposed to be a celebration of New York," says Dave Zirin, sports editor for The Nation and host of the Edge of Sports podcast. "And instead it was about one authoritarian, malignant narcissist."
Anticipation for the FIFA World Cup is "joyless," adds Zirin. "This is the first time that travel warnings are being issued to fans coming here. Even warnings are being issued to people who live in the United States by immigration groups because of the threats of ICE being at the stadiums."
