As the Aspen Acres Fire rapidly spread in Colorado, one family faced a heartbreaking challenge when their therapy horse refused to load into a trailer, forcing the owner to lead it on foot away from the approaching flames.

Wait for it. Fast growing fires in Colorado! 120,000 acres burning with 85% of the state in severe or worse #drought. The largest is the Aspen Acres fire which has ballooned to 50K acres and 0% containment. Smoke 💨 filled skies and poor air quality expected for days. #fire #smoke #colorado #aspen #burn

Reporter Nate Halverson took to the sky to get an aerial view of forestlands sprayed with the world's most controversial herbicide, glyphosate. The imagery from above was startling, as the extent of the barren land sprayed with glyphosate became apparent. The practice of spraying glyphosate—AKA Roundup—in the woods is now the fastest-growing market for the world's most widely used herbicide, according to 5 million state records analyzed by Mother Jones. An April investigation by Halverson that revealed the extent of the spraying has sparked a national debate over the practice and elicited pointed questions from members of Congress overseeing the Forest Service, leading some to call for an end to spraying in sensitive forestlands. The World Health Organization has called glyphosate a probable carcinogen, and the EPA has said it likely harms 93 percent of endangered species and is especially detrimental in areas like forests. The manufacturer Bayer says it is safe when used as directed. The United States Forest Service and timber companies say they use the controversial herbicide to reforest land that has burned in wildfires or been harvested by loggers. These foresters believe that by killing all other plant life, they help trees regrow faster by reducing competition for sunlight, water and soil nutrients. Record amounts of it have now been sprayed across the forest, according to state pesticide reports. In Lassen National Forest, the federal government plans to spray about 10,000 acres with the herbicide. Halverson flew over the area to see both the land planned for spraying and the private timberland where extensive spraying has already taken place within and surrounding the national forest. Sierra Pacific Industries, a timber company, is the second-largest user of glyphosate in California, according to state records analyzed by Mother Jones.

Most Americans believe the country has moved away from its founding principles as the nation prepares for its big 250th anniversary, a new PBS News/NPR/Marist poll finds. Eighty-three percent of U.S. adults feel America has strayed from the ideals the country was founded on two-and-a-half centuries ago. Among them, close to half of Americans — 47% — say the U.S. has "moved far away" from these principles, joined by 36% who said America has "moved somewhat away" from them. Another 16% said the country "pretty much still represents" those principles. Over the last 50 years, Americans' views of whether the country is living up to its nascent promise has flagged. In 1976, ahead of the nation's bicentennial, the Roper Organization polled Americans about the nation's founding principles in the wake of the Vietnam War and President Richard Nixon and the Watergate scandal. At the time, 30% of adults believed America had moved far away from its founding principles. Today, according to Marist's poll, that's jumped to 47%. To Beverly Gage, Yale University historian, the shift around ideals may depend, in part, on how people are thinking differently about those founding principles today. There are certain principles, like the embodiment of slavery, that would be good to have moved away from, she said. But Gage thinks there's a deeper concern among Americans about some of the nation's highest ideals — namely, the declaration that all men are created equal, the belief in the pursuit of happiness and the belief in some form of democracy. "There are lots of people that are really questioning, in this moment, whether those things are true anymore," she said. For more from the poll: to.pbs.org/44KESo5 Photo by Carlos Barria via Reuters

Rep. Haley Stevens turns her back and walks away from a constituent mid-conversation when asked about AIPAC:

Incumbent Congresswoman Diana DeGette (CO-01) – who just lost a primary challenge to Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros – was seen in March telling a constituent not to vote for her over their concerns about DeGette’s pro-Israel voting record. Coloradans must have listened.

"When Scott Weiner got yelled at, I wasn’t exactly surprised. It’s hard for me to believe anyone who has ever been to a Trans March would be. You might disagree... but you know this is the radical space where that will happen," writes Gabriel Haaland. 48hills.org/2026/06/politi…
