Not to go out on a limb, but they can’t have been looking that hard
It’s just very difficult to imagine how he envisioned this would go
An Alabama man wanted on drug and weapons charges posted a video denying he fed meth to a so-called “attack squirrel” he keeps as a pet. Mickey Paulk posted the video Tuesday on Facebook as authorities continued searching for him. It shows him stroking a rodent that he indicates is the one seized during a search and released by authorities. “You can’t give squirrels meth; it would kill ’em. I’m pretty sure, [but] I’ve never tried it,” he said. (AP)

A phantom planter’s lament THE DISTRICT On a recent Tuesday, Henry Docter stood at the Dupont Circle Metro station and counted the blooming sunflowers. A halfdozen had opened their petals, and more than 100 were growing. Two days later, he learned that every single one was gone. Docter said he felt numb. Then, he felt the tears come. Long known as “the Phantom Planter” for his unauthorized efforts to beautify the nation’s capital one public patch of dirt at a time, Docter had spent his own money and sweat planting and tending to the sunflowers at the Metro stop. His hope was that they would grow into the striking scene that had greeted commuters the year before. Last summer, flowers towered along an incline on both sides of the escalators. On social media, people described the botanical exhibit as a bright spot in an otherwise dreaded commute. “To whomever planted sunflowers along the escalators at the Dupont Metro station: bless

you,” one person wrote. But this year there will be no sunflowers, and Docter wants you to know that it is not because he didn’t try. “This shows Metro has no concern for the experience of
its riders,” Docter said. “It gives you a window into what kind of organization it is and what it values and how it deals with beauty, unbridled beauty.” A Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority official
said that Metro had not planted flowers at that location because “doing so would attract rodents and provide them a place to nest.” Maintenance staffers, the official said, “would remove anything that could attract rodents or encourage them to nest at the entrance.” Metro also has plans to cover the station’s entrance with a permanent glass-and-steel canopy that will protect the escalators from rain and snow. As part of that project, which is expected to be completed next year, Metro will replace the planters there with an art installation. Docter said he let the tears fall the day he learned the sunflowers were gone. He spent this past weekend planting four new public gardens. He also launched a GoFundMe page to fund new gardens, asking the public to suggest neglected spots in the city that could use flowers. As of Wednesday afternoon, the GoFundMe had exceeded its $1,000 goal. “I think this is a case where 99% of the people see the world as it is and appreciate the attempt to balance things out a bit with flowers,” Docter said.

Protests set for Trump on July 4 THE DISTRICT Mary Resnick and her husband, Art, have decided to boycott this year’s July 4 fireworks on the Mall after watching from the Lincoln Memorial plaza for 25 years. Peyton Sherwood says he plans to be near the Mall on the Fourth, selling “Baby Trump” balloons to protest the president’s policies. And Victoria Stewart, of Centreville, Va., says she is thinking of taking her family to the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial in Arlington, to watch fireworks without hearing Trump speak. Washington’s Fourth of July, usually a feel-good nonpartisan extravaganza, has this year become tangled in politics, with the president’s involvement sparking protests and his policies reportedly threatening to upend longstanding traditions. The American Pyrotechnics Association is set to tell the U.S. trade representative today that Trump’s proposed tariffs on Chinese goods could curtail fireworks shows by Labor Day. “It could impact Labor Day. It could impact New Year’s Eve,” said Julie Heckman, executive director of the association, which represents the U.S. fireworks industry. “ [It could] definitely impact next Fourth of July season.” About 75% of professional fireworks displays come from China, she said. There is upset over changes

to a summer tradition. “When you’re sitting on those steps at the Reflecting Pool, looking toward the Washington Monument and you turn around and you see the Lincoln [Memorial] behind you and the sun going down, it’s just the perfect place to be,” Mary Resnick, 66, of Arlington, said of the Mall. She and her family have attended regularly. This year? “I won’t be there,” she said. “I wouldn’t go for a political speech, a detraction from the purpose of the day. … I’ll be curious to see who is and isn’t moved as I am.” The usual launch site for the Mall fireworks along the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool was moved about 1,500 feet south to West Potomac Park to make room for 50,000 more spectators. Trump plans to speak from the Lincoln Memorial. Meanwhile, plans for protests have emerged. On June 10, activists from Code Pink became the first organization to request a protest permit from the National Park Service, seeking to fly the scowling “Baby Trump” balloon on the Mall. Sherwood, 41, co-owner of the District’s Midlands Beer Garden, bought 400 smaller versions of the balloon to sell near the Mall from his pickup truck on the day. “I was just looking to get Trump balloons for myself, because I thought they were funny,” he said. Sherwood said his location will be emailed to buyers, and he’ll give away leftovers. One glitch is that the park service does not allow helium

But she believes things have changed. “I’m wondering, ‘Why are we even going the Mall?’ ” she said. “…We’re certainly not celebrating unity anymore.” She added: “I’m also somewhat concerned for my safety.

EDUCATION The D.C. Council voted Tuesday, while adjusting the city’s fiscal year 2020 budget, to direct nearly $5.4 million to 31 schools facing budget cuts. The council rearranged existing funds to serve campuses expecting challenges, according to D.C. Council Chair Phil Mendelson, D. Mayor Muriel Bowser, D, had proposed a 2.2% per-student increase in education funding. The budget the D.C. Council passed included a 3% per-pupil increase. On Tuesday, Mendelson allocated the difference between the mayor’s plan and the council’s proposal to schools facing spending cuts instead of spreading it across all campuses. The council budget still needs Bowser’s signature. Most traditional public schools facing cuts are projected to decline in enrollment. But because smaller schools cost more to operate, leaders at those schools said their allocations did not stretch far enough. Twenty-two schools facing budget cuts are in Wards 7 and 8, areas of the city with the highest concentrations of poverty. Mendelson says the schools facing the biggest cuts will get the biggest chunk of the reallocated money. But even with the cash infusion, the schools will probably incur some cuts compared with their budget for the just-completed academic year. PERRY STEIN (TWP)

Memo contradicts board chair’s claim he previously was cleared
POLITICS A memo written by Metro’s general counsel contradicts claims by board chairman Jack Evans that the ethics committee cleared him of violations, according to the memo, obtained Wednesday by The Washington Post. The internal memo also contradicted Evans’ claim that there
was no agreement for him to not seek reelection as chairman over the violation. The memo says the committee found Evans committed a single violation of the ethics code by failing to disclose a conflict of interest. It also says he agreed not to seek reelection as chairman. The memo was distributed to board members Wednesday by ethics committee chair Clarence W. Crawford. It supported a summary of the ethics committee’s findings that Crawford

It’s my recollection that they asked me to file an amendment to my disclosure form, which I did. As far as not running for [Metro] chair, I had made that clear a year before that I would not run for chair, and told the committee in May that I would not run for chair.� The ethics committee did not produce a written report of its findings, which had allowed Evans to say that Crawford and the other two committee members were inaccurate.

Expert: Mines on tanker look like Iranian bombs

Hicks rebuffs questions on Trump White House
U.S. Navy stops short of directly blaming Tehran for the attack

NATIONAL SECURITY The limpet mines used to attack a Japanese-owned oil tanker near the Strait of Hormuz last week bore “a striking resemblance” to similar mines seen in Iran, a U.S. Navy explosives expert said Wednesday, stopping short of directly blaming Tehran for the assault. Iran has repeatedly denied being involved in the June 13 attack on the Japanese tanker Kokuka Courageous and the Norwegian-owned Front Altair. The comments by Cmdr. Sean Kido came as sailors showed reporters pieces of debris and a magnet the Navy says was used to attach an unexploded mine to the hull of the Kokuka Courageous. U.S. authorities say the materials were left behind by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard when it spirited away the unexploded mine after the attack in the Gulf of Oman. Iran, which previously used mines against oil tankers in the crucial waterway in the 1980s, has also not acknowledged retrieving the mine. Kido stressed that the damage to the Kokuka Courageous was “not consistent with an external flying object hitting the ship,” as the ship’s owner has contended happened during the attack.
Cmdr. Sean Kido reveals details about last week’s attack on an oil tanker.
The U.S. Navy says this magnet came from a mine on an oil tanker.
“The damage we observed is consistent with a limpet mine attack,” Kido said. The mines were placed above the vessel’s water line. One exploded, punching through the double-hulled ship and sparking a brief fire. The mines’ placement makes it “appear that the intention was not to sink the
vessel,” Kido said. Authorities also recovered a handprint and fingerprints, he said, “... which can be used to build a criminal case to hold the individuals responsible accountable.” The second vessel targeted in the attack, the Norwegian-owned Front Altair, caught fire and sent billowing black smoke into the air that was visible from space by satellites. Kido did not explain why the U.S. had no immediate evidence from that vessel. Meanwhile, rockets struck near an oil-drilling site in Iraq’s southern Basra province Wednesday, including one that hit inside a compound housing energy giant Exxon Mobil and other foreign oil companies and wounding three local workers, one seriously, Iraqi officials said.

Islanders seek ‘time-free’ summer days Residents of a Norwegian island where the sun doesn’t set for 69 days of the year want to go “time-free” and have more flexible school and working hours to make the most of their long summer days. People on the island of Sommaroey are pushing to get rid of “conventional time-keeping” during the midnight sun period that lasts from May 18 to July 26, resident Kjell Ove Hveding said Wednesday. Sommaroey, which lies north of the Arctic Circle, stays dark from November to January. The idea behind the time-free zone is that disregarding timepieces would make it easier for students, employers and workers to make the most of the precious months when they get to see the sun. (AP)

Trump ups threats to OPM POLITICS The Trump administration is threatening to furlough — and possibly lay off — 150 employees at the federal personnel agency if Congress blocks its plan to eliminate the department. The Office of Personnel Management is preparing to send the career employees home without pay starting on Oct. 1, according to an internal briefing document obtained by The Washington Post. The employees could formally be laid off after 30 days, administration officials confirmed. The warning of staff cuts is the administration’s most dramatic move yet in an escalating jujitsu between Trump officials and Congress over the fate of the agency that manages the civilian federal workforce of 2.1 million. Even as House Democrats and some Republicans signal that Congress is not going to break up the 5,565-employee department, the administration is moving forward in defiance. Trump appointees paint a dire picture of a corner of the government in financial free fall and failing to carry out its mission. They want a commitment from Congress by June 30 to agree to disband the agency — or they say they will be forced to trim the staff. “This is a crisis building for years,” Margaret Weichert, deputy director for management at the Office of Management and
OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
White House: Layoffs possible if Congress doesn’t let it kill agency
Margaret Weichert, acting director at the Office of Personnel Management, has said layoffs at the agency are “a last resort we are trying to avoid.”
Budget and acting OPM director, said in an interview. Weichert said the administration is “committed to structural change. We can’t just say that because something has been done a certain way for the last 40 years that that’s acceptable.” She confirmed the possible furloughs and layoffs and said they were “a last resort we are trying to avoid.” Trump officials say that OPM is a broken agency that should be wiped clean and restarted. They cite security weaknesses that led to a massive data breach, inefficient hiring policies and a backlogged system of processing paperwork for retiring employees.

“The Trump Administration is taking 150 federal employees hostage.” REP. GERRY CONNOLLY, D-Va., chairman of the House Oversight Committee’s panel on government operations, on President Trump’s threats to lay off 150 workers at the Office of Personnel Management
Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., who leads a panel overseeing government operations on the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, said Weichert has not made a business case to kill the agency.
“At the end of the day, we have to make sure the agency works better or functions better in another place,” he said, acknowledging that OPM has “done a terrible job with retiring employees.” The proposed breakup would pull apart OPM and divide it among three other departments. Most of its functions would move to the General Services Administration, the government’s real estate and procurement arm. OPM’s backlogged security clearance system already is shifting to the Defense Department, through legislation previously passed by Congress. The plan to dismantle the agency was the brainchild of a senior career official at the budget office. Weichert, a private-sector executive focused on improving business operations before she joined the Trump administration, has committed to it with a vengeance. She has told her staff that she is “planning to play chicken with Congress,” according to three officials familiar with the comments. Critics say she is deliberately starving the agency in an effort to kill it. “This is not a proposal that says, ‘How do we prop up OPM so it carries out its mission?’ ” said Jeffrey Neal, former personnel chief at the Department of Homeland Security and now a senior vice president at ICF, a consulting firm. “It’s more like pushing it over the edge so it fails.” LISA REIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

House panel holds debate on reparations WASHINGTON The debate over reparations catapulted from the campaign trail to Congress on Wednesday as lawmakers heard impassioned testimony for and against the idea of providing compensation for America’s history of slavery and racial discrimination. It was Congress’ first hearing on reparations in over a decade, and came amid a growing conversation both in the Democratic Party and the U.S. about lingering racial disparities. One of the most striking moments came as writer Ta-Nehisi Coates, above, the author of a 2014 essay making the case for reparations, challenged Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell’s Tuesday assertion that no one alive today is responsible for the past treatment of blacks. “For a century after the Civil War, black people were subjected to a relentless campaign of terror,” Coates said to the House Judiciary panel. “Victims of that plunder are very much alive today. I am sure they’d love a word with the majority leader.” Actor and activist Danny Glover, a longtime advocate, also urged passage of the resolution. But witness Coleman Hughes, who testified over boos, said black people don’t need “another apology,” but safer neighborhoods, better schools, a less punitive criminal justice system and better health care.

U.N. details murder of Khashoggi
Amid economic worries, Fed hints at rate cuts
UNITED NATIONS The gathering on the second floor of the Saudi Consulate featured an unlikely collection: a forensic doctor, intelligence and security officers, agents of the crown prince’s office. As they waited for their target to arrive, one asked how they would carry out the body. Not to worry, the doctor said: “Joints will be separated. It is not a problem,” he assured. “If we take plastic bags and cut it into pieces, it will be finished. We will wrap each of them.” Their prey, Saudi journalist and Washington Post contributor Jamal Khashoggi, would not leave the consulate in Istanbul alive. On Wednesday, more than eight months after his death, a U.N. special rapporteur revealed new details of the slaying — part of a report that insists there is “credible evidence” to warrant further investigation and financial sanctions against Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. The report brought the grisly case back into the spotlight just as the prince and his country appeared to be emerging from the stain of the scandal. But it contained no smoking gun likely to cause President Trump to abandon one of his closest allies — and none likely to send the crown prince before a tribunal. And yet the details of the Oct. 2 killing were so chilling, and now
so public, that it’s hard to fathom that there won’t be repercussions. On the recording, apparently picked up by Turkish listening devices, intelligence officer Maher Mutreb is heard asking whether “the sacrificial animal” had entered the consulate, and a voice responds: “He has arrived.” (Khashoggi is never mentioned by name in the audio.) Two minutes later, Khashoggi enters the consulate, hoping to collect a Saudi document that would let him wed his Turkish fiancee. He is led into the consul general’s office and told he has to return to Saudi Arabia. Khashoggi protests: “I notified some people outside. They are waiting for me. A driver is waiting for me.” “Let’s make it short,” the official tells him, adding: “Send a message to your son.” “Which son? What should I say to my son?” Khashoggi asks. “You will type a message. Let’s rehearse; show us,” the official says, prodding: “Type it, Mr. Jamal. Hurry up.” Within minutes, the official loses patience and, the rapporteur said, apparently pulls out a syringe. “Are you going to give me drugs?” Khashoggi asks. “We will anesthetize you,” he is told. Then came the sounds of struggle, “movement and heavy

ECONOMY The Federal Reserve left its key interest rate unchanged Wednesday but signaled that it’s prepared to start cutting rates if needed to protect the U.S. economy from trade conflicts and other threats. The Fed kept its benchmark rate — which influences many consumer and business loans — in a range of 2.25% to 2.5%, where it’s been since December. It issued a statement saying that because “uncertainties” have increased, it would “act as appropriate to sustain the expansion.” That language echoed a remark Chairman Jerome Powell made two weeks ago that analysts interpreted as a signal that rate cuts were on the way. The uncertainties the Fed referred to clearly include President Trump’s trade conflicts, especially with China. The effects of tariffs and counter-tariffs between the United States and China have become perhaps the leading threat to the U.S. economic expansion, which next month will become the longest on record. It remains unclear when a rate cut might happen. Many Fed watchers have said they think the policymakers want to first see whether a meeting that Trump and President Xi Jinping are to hold late next week at a Group of 20 nations summit in Japan produces any breakthrough in the U.S.-China trade war.

nation+world Malaysia Airlines jet was destroyed over Ukraine in 2014, killing all 298 CRIME International prosecutors annou nc ed mu rder ch a rges Wednesday against four men — three of them Russians with military or intelligence backgrounds — in the missile attack that blew a Malaysia Airlines jet out of the sky over Ukraine five years ago, killing all 298 people aboard. The case, built with the help of wiretaps, radar images and social media posts, marks the most significant step yet toward tying the tragedy to Moscow, which has backed the pro-Russian
separatists fighting to seize control of eastern Ukraine. In announcing the charges, prosecutors appealed for witnesses to help lead them even further up the chain of command in President Vladimir Putin’s Russia. Investigators “want to go as far as we can get” because “it’s important to know who can be held responsible for this absolute tragedy,” top Dutch prosecutor Fred Westerbeke said. The trial for the defendants, who also include a Ukrainian separatist fighter, was set for next March in the Netherlands, though it appeared unlikely any of them would be brought before the court, since Russia and Ukraine forbid the extradition

of their citizens. Russia’s Foreign Ministry called the charges against the country’s citizens “absolutely unfounded” and accused the investigators of using “dubious
sources of information” and ignoring evidence provided by Moscow in order to discredit Russia. It said, too, that the international team turned a blind eye to Ukraine’s failure to close its airspace to commercial flights despite the fighting that endangered aircraft. Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, or MH17, from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur was brought down on July 17, 2014, over eastern Ukraine by what investigators said was a Buk missile from a Russian anti-aircraft unit. Investigators believe the Ukrainian rebels probably mistook the Boeing 777 passenger jet for a Ukrainian military plane.

The outbreak has been exacerbated by a heat wave, with temperatures in Patna, Bihar’s capital, reaching 114.5 degrees.
Mexico’s Senate votes to ratify new free trade agreement with U.S., Canada
NEW ORLEANS Billions of mosquito look-alikes are showing up in the New Orleans area, blanketing car windshields, littering the ground with bodies and scaring residents. They’re aquatic midges, often called “blind mosquitoes.” They don’t bite and they’re good for the environment, but they sure can be a nuisance. “They tend to emerge in the billions, with a B, generally. It’s all at once and doesn’t last too long. But in that time frame it’s living hell,” said Nick DeLisi, entomologist for the St. Tammany Mosquito Abatement District on the north shore of the huge tidal basin called Lake Pontchartrain. The swarms smell like aquarium fish food — some compare it to rotting fish. It can be worse inside buildings, where the critters creep through cracks and die in droves. The midges swarm as they look for mates, so DeLisi said there could be new generations in several weeks. “They might not be quite to this severity,” he said. The larvae of this sort of fly are important food for fish, and the flies themselves feed birds. Roger Boudreaux, who lives in eastern New Orleans, compared the infestation to Alfred Hitchcock’s 1963 thriller “The Birds.” “I jumped out [of] the car and I was doing all kind of crazy dancing just to get them off me,” he told WWL-TV. “People laughing at me in the street.” JANET McCONNAUGHEY (AP)

NBA TRADE
Grizzlies send Conley to the Jazz
NBA DRAFT | 7:30 TONIGHT, ESPN
They could be the next …
One of the most fun recent sports debates has been: Which player is the closest match to Zion Williamson? Is he more LeBron James
or Charles Barkley? Is he the next Blake Griffin or J.J. Watt with a 40-inch vertical? It’s hard to find a comparison to the most athletic 6-foot-7, 284-pound man to ever walk on the court, but searching for the “next Jordan” was impossible too, and that didn’t stop anyone from trying. Here are the current NBA stars who most resemble the projected top-eight picks in tonight’s draft. JEFFREY TOMIK (EXPRESS)
The next LeBron James?
The next Russell Westbrook?
The next James Harden?
The next Khris Middleton?
Zion Williamson
Ja Morant
RJ Barrett
Jarrett Culver
The former Duke forward is about 30 pounds heavier than the Lakers star, but both have that same unstoppable look when they attack the rim. In 2003, LeBron was the incomparable No. 1 prospect already known on a first-name basis. Over time, LeBron has become even more unguardable by developing his perimeter shooting — a skill Zion will needs to work on.
If anyone other than Westbrook is going to average a triple double over the next decade, the best bet might be the Murray State standout. Like the Thunder’s do-everything point guard, Morant is a ferocious dunker who goes out of his way to rebound and get his teammates involved, while also being capable of taking over scoring duties when needed.
Any high-scoring left-handed shooting guard wants to be compared to Harden. (USC’s Kevin Porter Jr. also models his game after him). But it’s more than the former Duke swingman’s long-range shooting touch and ability to score in isolation that have him drawing comparisons to “The Beard.” Both are also underrated passers.
The understated Bucks forward was second to Giannis Antetokounmpo on his team in points, rebounds and assists. At Texas Tech, Culver similarly filled the box score, leading the Red Raiders as a sophomore to the NCAA finals. Middleton and Culver are versatile and reliable — perfect complements to any star. Culver would pair nicely with Zion.
The next Damian Lillard?
The next Jamal Murray?
The next Kawhi Leonard?
The next Rudy Gay?
Darius Garland
Coby White
De’Andre Hunter
Cam Reddish
Garland played in just five games at Vanderbilt before a knee injury ended his freshman season, but even in that limited time it was easy to be impressed by his Lillard-like ballhandling skills and shooting range. The lack of college experience could scare some execs away, but Garland appears to have all the same tools that made Lillard a star in Portland.
White is the reason Michael Jordan is no longer the Tar Heels’ all-time freshman scoring leader. The 6-foot-5 guard’s ability to push the pace and score in transition are similar to Murray, who had a breakout season in Denver. While both can be facilitators at the point guard position, they seem more comfortable in score-first roles.
While the Virginia standout doesn’t have hands so massive they inspired a nickname and logo, Hunter is about the same size (6-foot-7, 225 pounds) as Leonard and both are known for their perimeter defending. They are also very efficient scorers, with developed mid-range games and above-average shooting percentages all over the floor.
The former Duke forward has the talent to be an elite scorer for a long time in the NBA — much like the Spurs’ swingman. With long wingspans, the 6-foot-8 forwards have the length to shoot over smaller guards and the speed to exploit bigger forwards. The challenge for Reddish will be to shake the label as a guy who doesn’t care enough.

ESPN reported the deal also includes Utah’s No. 23 pick in tonight’s draft and a future first-round pick. Conley confirmed the trade on Twitter, thanking Memphis for making him the man he is. “Time for another chapter! Excited to give all I have to The Jazz …!” Conley tweeted. Conley was the last remaining piece of the core that led the Grizzlies to seven consecutive playoff berths. Zach Randolph and Tony Allen left in 2017 as free agents, and Memphis traded Marc Gasol to Toronto in February. (AP)

Unproven goalie faces first test
LIONEL BONAVENTURE (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)
WORLD CUP The United States’ first two World Cup matches featured a harmonic spectacle of possession, goals and ruthless dominance. Rarely did the ball leave the attacking end with purpose, in effect reducing the field to a 57-yard game. Far from the torrent of opportunity and celebration, a lonely figure has dutifully remained at her post. Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher has had very little to do in France, leaving unresolved questions about her capacity at her first major tournament. The knock on the world’s topranked team is Naeher’s lack of experience at the World Cup or Olympics. Today, when the Americans face Sweden for first place in Group F, the path to a fourth world title grows more difficult. As good as the U.S. defense is, the days of 90 boring minutes are probably over. “The biggest thing for me is the constant communication with the defense, staying connected and managing the space between us,” Naeher said two weeks before the World Cup. “Having that constant communication

helps me stay engaged because sometimes you are called upon in the first minute, sometimes you are called upon in the 90th. Sometimes you are called upon zero in-between, sometimes a hundred times in-between.” So far, it has been almost zero. Naeher, 31, was called upon in the first half against Chile and did not fare well. An offside call
bailed her out after she failed to intervene on a free kick that slipped behind the defensive wall. That added to some outside unease about Naeher, who’s under pressure to perform at the level of her elite predecessors.

Cup trophies and four Olympic gold medals over 19 years. Naeher, a Penn State graduate, was Solo’s backup on the 2015 squad that won the world title and the 2016 Olympic team that faltered in the quarterfinals. Solo’s dismissal from the program for the last in a series of transgressions opened the door for Naeher, who warded off a challenge from Ashlyn Harris for the top slot. Solo’s shadow, though, continues to follow Naeher. Beyond the inevitable comparisons, Solo is serving as a BBC analyst in France. Since taking over, Naeher has been about as likely to record a shutout (27) as to concede a goal (28). Her 48 appearances rank fourth on the U.S. career list and she’s third in shutouts. Midfielder Julie Ertz, Naeher’s teammate with the Chicago Red Stars in the NWSL, said Naeher has been “solid and great for us for a long time. People don’t see it, but behind the scenes, she has put so much work into it.” Asked how she feels when people say she is the weak link in the U.S. machine, Naeher said: “I don’t compare it to anything else. I try to be Alyssa; that is all I can control. That’s who I am.”

REDSKINS Redskins running backs coach Randy Jordan delivers the same message to his players before every game. “The party don’t start until we walk in,” he says. The stats back up his point: The team was 6-1 in games last season in which it outrushed its opponent. Whether that’s causation or just correlation is up for debate, but either way the Redskins view their best shot at offensive success as starting with the ground game. And running back looks to be a strength of this year’s team. “If everybody is healthy come August and September, the coaches definitely have a tough job on their hands with what to do with everybody,” Chris Thompson said. “If you look at the lineup, to me, it’s ridiculous.” There’s only one ball to go around, and the coaching staff will have to figure out how to best utilize the team’s many options while keeping everybody happy. Adrian Peterson, above, hasn’t been shy about his desire to start, and he said 2,000 rushing yards is his goal. Derrius Guice was the star of last year’s training camp and Washington was ready to feature him before he tore his ACL in the first preseason game. Thompson is a unique weapon who also requires touches. “Those guys get a little upset when all of a sudden a guy gets a couple of reps and they’re looking at me like, ‘Coach, when’s my turn?’ ” Jordan said.

Parra leads Nats to afternoon win NATIONALS 6, PHILLIES 2 Gerardo Parra changed his walk-up music, then changed the game. When the Nationals outfielder walked to the plate Wednesday afternoon in the first game of a doubleheader at Nationals Park, the chorus of “Baby Shark” played.
Parra grounded out in his first at-bat but later delivered an RBI double that put his team ahead, threw out the Phillies’ Bryce Harper at third base to keep the Nationals in front and smashed a solo home run off the railing of the second deck in right field to punctuate a 6-2 win.

A wedding ring Matthew Shepard hoped would define his future is on display.
The ones who risked it all ‘Illegal to Be You’ charts a momentous century of gay life in America
A gay activist’s S&M harness is included in “Illegal to Be You.”
EXHIBITS In a museum known for displaying the demure dresses of first ladies, there’s a provocative new outfit on view: a skimpy chrome and rubber S&M harness that was worn by a gay activist at several recent San Francisco Pride marches. You can find it in a display case on the second floor of the National Museum of American History as part of a new mini-exhibit, “Illegal to Be You: Gay History Beyond
Stonewall,” that opens Friday and will be on view for about a year. “The only thing gay people, queer people share throughout history is the risk they take in being themselves. And people take different levels of risk,” exhibit curator Katherine Ott says. “There are all kinds of ways people express their identity or their sense of style, and leather and S&M and just being free and fabulous is a classic part of being queer.” The exhibit covers more than 100 years of queer life and activism in the United States, a story that includes but doesn’t center on the seismic 1969 Stonewall
riots in New York. “Stonewall was important but there had been all these actions before it — at Dewey’s lunch counter in Philadelphia, at Cooper Do-nuts in California — but they didn’t get the press that Stonewall did because things were still building,” Ott says. Perhaps the most moving artifacts in the exhibit belonged to the late Matthew Shepard, who became a national symbol of violence against gays when he was brutally beaten and left to die at the age of 21 in 1998. The Smithsonian display includes two items of his: a wedding ring Shepard bought in the hopes of
getting married someday, and the Superman cape he wore as a child. “He was a regular kid. He was just an outgoing, friendly kid who loved people, who loved theater,” Ott says. “So the cape seemed like a perfect way to capture him and make him relatable, to make people think, ‘This could have been me.’ ” SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

Linda Holmes POP CULTURE CRITIC AND AUTHOR
As the host of the NPR podcast “Pop Culture Happy Hour,” Linda Holmes knows a thing or two about analyzing storytelling tropes. When she wrote her debut novel, the romantic comedy “Evvie Drake Starts Over,” out Tuesday, she understood what type of tale she wanted to tell — and not tell. “It’s the kind of story that I like,” Holmes says of the novel, which tracks the budding relationship between a recently widowed woman and a down-and-out baseball star. “I have certain things that I don’t like to see in those stories. I don’t like them to become too rescue-oriented, and I don’t like them to become too rooted in people not liking each other and then suddenly deciding that they do.” Holmes, 48, will discuss her contribution to the rom-com canon in a talk at Politics and Prose (5015 Connecticut Ave. NW; Wed., 7 p.m., free). On her perfect day in the area, the Takoma Park, Md., resident would enjoy the outdoors and give her dog, Brian, plenty of love. When you wake up in the morning, you have to have a certain amount of couch time with the dog. So I drink coffee, and Brian snuggles up and feels secure and happy. It’s a big part of his day. It’s our morning coffee ritual, which, look, I call “morning snugs,”
OK? It’s very important. And if I’m going to have much breakfast, maybe I’m making myself a little egg-on-toast situation. My dream day has to be a Sunday because I would go to the Takoma Park Farmers Market. It opens at 10 a.m. and
I’m heading toward downtown Silver Spring at this point. There’s a pub there called McGinty’s Public House that I sometimes go to. I’d drop in and have a burger lunch. From there, I would head over to the AFI Silver for an afternoon matinee. They have this giant, beautiful, art deco theater that they often use for their repertory showings — that’s where I saw “Ghostbusters” when it was 25 years old. I’d get a glass of wine, chill out and watch “Singin’ in the Rain.” I’ve been going back and forth about whether I want to go to dinner at Hank’s Oyster Bar or Rasika, because I love them both. If it’s a nice day and I can sit outside, then I’m going to Hank’s near Dupont Circle. They’ll let you sit there and have drinks and popcorn shrimp all day. So good.

weekendpass Q+A | TAFFY BRODESSER-AKNER
Finding the truth … and ‘Trouble’ Toby Fleishman has suddenly — unexpectedly — become an object of immense desire. His phone buzzes as he falls asleep; when he wakes, there are a dozen texts from a dozen women that include photos of “underboob and sideboob and just straight-up boob.” Toby is the newly separated Upper East Side doctor at the center of Taffy Brodesser-Akner’s “Fleishman Is in Trouble,” one of the most anticipated novels of the season. As he’s adjusting to his popularity in the unfamiliar, salacious world of dating apps, his ex-wife drops their kids off — under the cover of darkness — and doesn’t return, leaving Toby to grapple with his role in their doomed relationship. “It was a lightning bolt,” Brodesser-Akner says of the idea for her debut novel, released this week. After telling a male friend she was sorry to hear he was getting divorced, he said, “ ‘It’s OK, look what’s going on,’ ” she recalls. “He showed me his phone and some of his apps, and suddenly this guy had women crawling all over him.” Brodesser-Akner ERIK TANNER
— a staff writer for The New York Times Magazine known for her piercing celebrity profiles — walked directly into a Le Pain Quotidien, ordered an iced tea and wrote what became the first 10 pages of “Fleishman.” Within six months, it was complete. She’ll discuss the novel on Thursday at Politics and Prose. ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS)

weekendpass Throughout your journalism career, did you always plan to write a novel at some point? This was what I wanted to do from the beginning. I had a degree in screenwriting and got a job right out of college at a soap opera magazine, and one thing led to another and I stayed a journalist. But it took all these years of writing the truth, and trying to figure out how to accommodate large themes in the truth and seeing that an audience of readers loved it — they loved the fact that the truth doesn’t always make sense, and that the truth is hard to reconcile. And once you see that, you realize your fiction work should reflect that; it shouldn’t be neat. Did you test out any dating apps as research for “Fleishman”? I did, with my husband’s permission. I first went on as a man, and then I went on as a woman, and oh, my God, they are terrible. I feel like we’re supposed to talk about [the apps] as if they’re so
liberating, but all I saw was men calling the shots. I went on as a couple different ages, and when I was a woman my age [43], I found a bunch of divorced men who were total jerks, like “I don’t ever want to be manipulated by another woman,” and “I need someone who isn’t all about her career.” And really angry things that should not attract a woman, and yet, these men are doing just fine. I’d go home and watch, like, “The Americans” with my husband and be very, very grateful to be married. It’s a cringe-fest. If I ever have significant problems in my marriage, I will remember what is out there. If the tables were turned and someone was writing a profile about you, what would be important to include? The way I like to write a profile is to ignore the things people say are essential to them and go with what [I] see anyway. And the one thing I have learned is that if there is anyone disqualified from

“The one thing I have learned is that if there is anyone disqualified from saying anything completely true about yourself, it’s you.”
out, it’s not the only thing I have going on. I read people who write one or two big stories a year, and I think, “But what if nobody reads it? What if nobody likes it?” We try to pretend that people’s reactions to our work don’t matter, but we’re lying.
TAFFY BRODESSER-AKNER, on the biggest takeaway from her years interviewing celebrities and writing profiles for The New York Times Magazine
saying anything completely true about yourself, it’s you. I always knew how much power you hold in your hand when you’re writing about somebody, and I tried to take that very seriously. But I never really understood how much scarier it is on the other side, to just let someone else tell your story. I have a new respect for the people who sit down with me, especially knowing the kind of story I write. Suppose someone finishes “Fleishman” and wants to devour everything else you’ve
written. Are there a few pieces you recommend starting with? It changes all the time, but the stories that most represent who I am right now are my Gwyneth [Paltrow] story, maybe my Weight Watchers story, maybe my Bradley Cooper story. Although, I don’t know if he would recommend it. Every story I write, the minute it’s published there are a thousand things I would have done differently. That’s part of the reason I sold a second novel before this one came out and why I write so much — so when the thing comes
You’ll be in conversation with CNN’s Jake Tapper at your Politics and Prose event. How did that come about? First of all, I love Jake. He is a really, really smart newsman, and he wrote a very readable, exciting novel that I absolutely loved called “The Hellfire Club.” I wrote a profile about Jake, and after the story, we became friends, which is something that I rarely, if ever, engage in. He read the book while it was still in a Word doc, and he was one of the people who encouraged me early on.

With festivals like ours, we go in and pull apart the culture, so that the culture’s subculture is represented.” This means bringing into the fold works that don’t speak solely about race. One of this year’s highlights is “Momma,” a oneman play in which comedian Michael Colyar chronicles his relationship with his mother and his struggles with substance abuse. One of the featured films, “Rumination,” depicts one man’s grief after a tumultuous breakup. On top of that, the festival’s 100 or so staged plays and play readings are so diverse that they’re split into three categories — traditional, gospel and urban. This year’s participants hail from all over the world, though there was a special effort made to highlight playwrights, actors, dancers, filmmakers, artists and musicians from D.C.’s Ward 8. “We specifically went after east-of-the-river artists,” Alan says. “We not only wanted to uncover, discover and introduce artists that are east of the river,
PHOTOS COURTESY DC BLACK ARTS & THEATRE FESTIVAL
FESTIVALS The original game plan in 2010 was supposed to keep things simple. For the first DC Black Theatre & Arts Festival, local playwright Glenn Alan and his dedicated team would spotlight one new play a day over seven days. They put out a call for submissions to fill the two remaining slots after hand-picking the first five plays — and ended up getting over 140 responses in return. “At that point, we knew we were thinking too small,” says Alan, the executive director of the festival. “We then resculpted the work to take as many plays as we could, and that first year we probably did 70 plays.” Nine years later, the festival has swelled into a lot more than just a theater event. The 2019 edition, running Friday to July 7, brings music, dance, visual art and films to several venues across the D.C. area, mostly concentrated in Southeast. (This year’s 470 submissions set a record for the festival.) To Alan, expanding the festival was crucial to addressing a larger diversity problem in the local theater scene. “If you look at some of our big theaters, like Arena Stage or Woolly Mammoth, what you’ll

It is called DC Black Theatre & Arts Festival, isn’t it? “I think an interesting caveat is that all of the plays aren’t just by African Americans,” Alan says. “We want to talk about African American, or African Caribbean or African African life, but that doesn’t necessarily mean the writer of that is African.” With the festival nearing the 10-year mark, Alan wants to take things global — bringing artists to other countries that may not have exposure to diverse African storytelling. For now, though, the organizers plan to keep the event firmly rooted in D.C. “This is a festival by artists, for artists. We didn’t want to build a project where we could just stand up and watch it walk away,” Alan says. “We wanted to build a project where we could stand up, get in and ride with you, so that all of the staff — all of the team — are also performing during the festival.”

When fake news got real
ETHAN MILLER (GETTY IMAGES FOR COMEDY CENTRAL)
The Newseum’s ‘Daily Show’ exhibit weighs Jon Stewart’s impact on satire EXHIBITS When Jon Stewart appeared in front of Congress last week to deliver his impassioned testimony on behalf of 9/11 first responders, it was a reminder of both the power of Stewart’s words and his influence on American politics. For the Newseum, Stewart’s speech couldn’t have been more timely: On Friday, the journalism-focused museum will open “Seriously Funny: From the Desk of ‘The Daily Show With Jon Stewart,’ ” which explores Stewart’s tenure at the iconic Comedy Central series, his lasting impact on news and comedy, and the careers the show helped launch. The Newseum began planning this exhibit in 2015, when Stewart retired from “The Daily Show” and donated his desk to the museum. “There has been no acquisition that the museum has had that has received more attention, more [people saying] ‘I want to see it,’” says Patty Rhule, the Newseum’s vice president for content and exhibit development. “The excitement is still there.” The desk — complete with a globe hanging overhead — is the literal centerpiece of the exhibit, which fills a room on the museum’s second floor. You can’t sit at it (it’s surrounded by plexiglass) but you can stand behind and take photos. The desk, which was used on the show from 2007 to 2015 and was modeled after actual news show desks, offers some behind-the-scenes insight into Stewart’s work process. “We have these little artifacts that Jon kept behind the desk, his essentials: toothpicks, they would always put a singular pen on his desk that he would tap and use to update the script as he was going, a bottle of water, an alarm
clock,” Rhule says. “Then there was also a little sort of a pocket under the desk where people might sit to hand him props or give him a high-five.” (The chair even has “Jon’s chair” written on the back, Rhule adds, “in case anyone would forget whose seat it was.”) “Seriously Funny” isn’t limited to “The Daily Show,” which Stewart took over from original host Craig Kilborn in 1999. The exhibit also takes a broad look at satire and the First Amendment: A display case includes issues of Mad magazine and The Onion, and there’s a moose head that popped up in a 2008 “Saturday Night Live” sketch in which Amy Poehler rapped about then-vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Stewart’s progeny — onetime “Daily Show” correspondents Stephen Colbert, Samantha Bee, John Oliver, Hasan Minhaj — and his successor, Trevor Noah, are also well-represented. As is the massive Rally to Restore Sanity and/ or Fear that Stewart and Colbert co-hosted on the National Mall in 2010. It’s not unusual for the Newseum to turn to comedy: A 2013 exhibit was based around Will Ferrell’s fictional newsman Ron Burgundy and the “Anchorman” movies. But “Seriously Funny” takes a more … well, serious approach. “In the exhibit, we talk about satire as a protected form of free speech under the First Amendment,” Rhule says. “Even before there was the First Amendment, Americans were making fun of King George. So this is just a part of our American DNA: to be able to make fun of our leadership and people in leadership roles. Not every country has that opportunity.”

Next to the desk is a display of the things that Stewart kept within arm’s reach, such as a mirror, extra pens, toothpicks and an alarm clock.
Behind Stewart’s desk, there’s a nook where a person might have hidden while handing the host props. The chair is even labeled “Jon’s chair.”

The desk that Jon Stewart sat behind from 2007 until his final episode is the centerpiece of the Newseum’s exhibit. The desk was brought in as part of a major redesign of the show’s set completed eight years into Stewart’s run.
Magazine covers featuring Stewart and some of the correspondents’ credentials are on display.
John Oliver is featured as one of the correspondents who have gone on to host their own shows.
The exhibit includes props from other satirical shows, like this moose head from an “SNL” bit.
Using video clips from “The Daily Show,” quotes from entertainers and politicians, and objects used on the series, the exhibit makes a case for how revolutionary Stewart’s show was — how his brand of satire transformed the show into something that bordered on actual news. For example, the exhibit explains how Stewart hired real broadcast journalists to help with research and fact-checking. “You really can’t have effective satire unless you’ve got the facts right,” Rhule says. “For a generation, he was their voice of the news.” The exhibit, which was assembled with the help of Comedy Central, includes correspondent credentials from the 2008 Democratic National Convention and a 1999 clip of Steve Carell chatting with then-Republican presidential contender John McCain aboard his Straight Talk Express bus — signs that the show was being taken seriously by both political parties. “His point is really taking both the media and politicians to task,” Rhule says of Stewart, who aimed much of his ridicule at
CNN and Fox News by the end of his run. “And telling everybody, ‘Come on, do a better job.’ He’s using the tools and things that we all know a broadcast journalist has: over-the-shoulder graphics, the breaking-news chyron. He’s both admiring and admonishing the media.” It’s fitting, then, that “Seriously Funny,” which will likely be the final new exhibit at the Newseum before it closes at the end of the year, includes a script page from Stewart’s final show, where he warned viewers, and those who would succeed him, to be vigilant against “bulls---.” “The people who were inspired by him have gone on to do shows that take that brand of comedy and social commentary and put their own twist on it,” Rhule says. “They are still making headlines today with the way they are challenging hypocrisy and challenging the press as well as politicians to do better — just like Jon Stewart did.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

Dead & Phish: A jam-packed look
TEDDY & The Bully Bar
Before Dead & Company played the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles earlier this month, a tattoo artist was hawking bootleg T-shirts with two “Peanuts” characters palling around. One was wearing a Grateful Dead shirt, the other a Phish tee. Underneath, it read, “Ain’t no time to hate.” The phrase, taken from the Dead song “Uncle John’s Band,” is partly a nod to how much the two enduring acts share. Both are responsible for shaping the modern jam band formula: two-set concerts with rotating setlists; a sprawling repertoire of originals and covers; long, improvisatory jams; and rabid fan bases. In a rare occurrence, both Dead & Company — which features three Grateful Dead members plus John Mayer — and Phish are bringing their summer tours to the D.C. area in the next week. This allows Deadheads and Phans to double-dip and gives the uninitiated the chance to dive headfirst into both bands in their proper habitat, outdoor amphitheaters. Here’s a comparison of the juggernauts of jam. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

The latest offshoot of the Grateful Dead, Dead & Company formed in 2015 and includes Dead guitarist Bob Weir and drummers Bill Kreutzmann and Mickey Hart — along with John Mayer (subbing for the late Jerry Garcia on guitar), bassist Oteil Burbridge and keyboardist Jeff Chimenti, who’s been playing in Dead bands with Weir since 1997.
Guitarist Trey Anastasio, bassist Mike Gordon and drummer Jon Fishman formed Phish in Vermont in 1983. Keyboardist Page McConnell joined in 1985 and the four have been playing together ever since, save for a two-year hiatus that began in 2000 and a full-on breakup between 2004 and 2009.
Dead & Co. pulls almost exclusively from the Grateful Dead’s vast songbook of originals and covers, a mix of folk, rock, ’60s psychedelia, blues and jazz that can hit on other genres during jams or certain songs. The band plays at a slower pace than the Dead did in its prime (which is intentional, according to a recent GQ interview with Weir), and Mayer’s vocals can take some getting used to, but the group comes close to re-creating the sound and vibe of an actual Dead concert and plays the hits, including “Touch of Grey,” “Truckin’ ” and “Ripple.”
Dead & Company’s jams tend to build out of predetermined portions of songs and usually don’t deviate too much from the theme. Bluesy songs tend to have bluesy guitar solos; psychedelic songs are often more exploratory and noodle-y. The best improv moments usually focus on the interplay between Mayer and Chimenti, who joyfully trade riffs and licks back and forth — particularly on such Dead & Co. jam vehicles as “Deal” and “Bird Song.”
Every show includes a segment called “Drums,” near the end of the second set, with Kreutzmann and Hart banging on drums over preprogrammed beats. Hart then plays a droning instrument called the Beam that leads into a full-band improv dubbed “Space.”
The band’s social media accounts post the previous night’s setlist and professional photos after shows. Mayer often reflects on his experiences in glowing posts on his personal accounts and boosts Instagram’s robust bootleg T-shirt scene, which has led to some bootleg artists (such as the distinctive L.A. tie-dye company Online Ceramics) getting the call to make official merch for the band. Weir posts photos and videos of his intense workout routine to his social media channels.
The “don’t wear a shirt of the band you’re going to see” rule doesn’t apply here. Most people will be wearing Dead shirts of some kind: shirts from this band or another offshoot, bootleg shirts that reference songs and lots of tie-dye.

At the Hollywood Bowl this month, Dead & Company began a show with the help of Los Angeles High School’s jazz band and marching drumline, which jammed on John Coltrane’s “A Love Supreme” and the Dead’s disco anthem “Shakedown Street” with the band.
THE BAND
THE MUSIC
It’s hard to pin Phish down: The band is capable of playing classic rock, funk, jazz, folksy ballads, prog rock, bluegrass — even carnival-style sounds. Anastasio’s guitar has a distinctive soaring tone that has inspired countless jam band guitarists. Vocally and lyrically, Phish can be either obtuse or direct. The band is also very good at oscillating between uplifting, happy-sounding instrumental passages and darker, evil riffs. Phish has also played Dead covers sporadically over the years, and has welcomed members of the Dead for sit-ins. Anastasio even played the Garcia role for the Dead’s “Fare Thee Well” concerts in 2015.
Phish has two improv forms: Type 1, as it’s dubbed by fans, sticks to the core of the song, while Type 2 quickly veers off course and makes you forget what song the band was even playing. A Type 2 jam can emerge from any song or be driven by any instrument (though it’s often Anastasio’s guitar). In New York in 2017, Phish shocked fans by turning the usually compact lounge song “Lawn Boy” into a half-hour exploration that spurred the “Is this still ‘Lawn Boy’?” meme.
THE JAMS
Maybe, but there isn’t one built into each show. It is, however, possible that drummer Fishman will play a solo on an Electrolux vacuum cleaner, as he has occasionally done over the years.
WILL THERE BE A DRUM SOLO?
The Phish From the Road Instagram and Twitter accounts post setlists and photos from concerts as they happen. Bassist Gordon has a tendency to post a photo of his socks to Instagram before showtime. Anastasio has recently gotten more active on Instagram: This week, he posted videos of himself side stage at Bonnaroo watching sets from Cardi B and The Lemon Twigs.

PREVALENCE OF GRATEFUL DEAD T-SHIRTS AT SHOWS
EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED
Because of the fan base crossover, plenty of people will be decked out in Dead shirts. Still, most folks will be wearing Phish gear — look for belts, socks, shorts or other more subtle clothing items covered with the band’s blue and red doughnut logo.
For a Halloween hoax last year in Las Vegas, Phish created an elaborate backstory for a Scandinavian prog rock outfit called Kasvot Växt and played a set of that band’s tunes (in costume with choreography). Fans figured out that Kasvot Växt doesn’t exist and that the set was actually new Phish songs.

Eat good food, and do a little bit of good, too. That’s the concept of grocery chain Giant’s annual two-day food festival that will stretch along Pennsylvania Avenue this weekend, with ticket proceeds benefiting USO-Metro and the Capital Area Food Bank.

Sneaks: Eva Moolchan, aka Sneaks, made her name in the D.C. music scene with projects that hovered around punk and electro pop. On her latest LP, “Highway Hypnosis,” you can almost hear the singer’s mind darting around, as no track extends beyond three minutes. Instead of getting lost in the murky pinballing of sounds, the songs emerge as succinct missives from an artist who is dedicated to doing things on her own terms. On Sunday, she plays a free show on the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage.

VICTORIA WILL (INVISION/AP)
His ballad for an age gone by Martin Scorsese worries that films like his Bob Dylan doc will soon be squeezed out Bob Dylan and Joan Baez appear in archival footage featured in the film “Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese.”
NETFLIX
FILM A recent multiplex marquee is haunting Martin Scorsese. Twelve screens, and 11 of them were showing one movie: “Avengers: Endgame.” “Now, that’s not fair,” Scorsese says. “We have to fight back at this practice of overwhelming the market with the blockbuster. The — how should I put it? — the regular film, that’s being edged out. It’s got to go someplace. It has to go someplace because, you know why? There are people that are going to continue to make them.” Scorsese, 76, is still making them, though there’s little “regular” about his latest film. “Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese” is a blistering semi-fictional documentary that chronicles Dylan’s mythic 1975-1976 rambling cavalcade across a post-Vietnam America. Scorsese has also inserted fictional characters to amplify the folklore and embrace Dylan’s own trickery. The film, which premiered
last week on Netflix and in select theaters, includes restored performance footage from the tour, scenes of the backstage circus (much of which was shot for the Dylan-directed 1978 film “Renaldo and Clara”) and contemporary interviews with many of the participants, including Joan Baez and, in his first on-camera interview in a decade, Dylan. It can feel like eons ago. Dylan himself says Rolling Thunder
happened so long ago, “I wasn’t even born.” But for Scorsese, the movie is largely about what remains from that freewheeling extravaganza, when Dylan drove a Winnebago-led caravan of musicians, artists and poets (among them Allen Ginsberg, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Joni Mitchell and Bob Neuwirth) on a nationwide storm. Dylan unleashed ferocious performances of “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall,” “Isis,”
“Hurricane” and “When I Paint My Masterpiece.” What’s left of that musical moment? “Ashes,” Dylan states in the film. Ginsberg, in a speech at the tour’s conclusion captured on camera by Dylan, provides a counterpoint that Scorsese favors. The poet implores all to “take from us some example” and “go out and make it for your own eternity.” Scorsese was so moved by Ginsberg’s words that he used them last year in his commencement address at his daughter’s high school graduation. “What we were going for was to say: What survives from these ashes?” Scorsese says. “That spirit has to be remembered and it has to be re-experienced, especially in the climate of today around the world. It’s not enough to say the world changes and it doesn’t mean anything. It has a timelessness.” What lasts culturally has been much on Scorsese’s mind. The cinema he grew up with and makes, he says, is gone, a victim of today’s screen-hogging blockbuster dominance. Scorsese had to work tirelessly to get his last film, the impassioned religious epic “Silence,” made. Before Paramount’s reported acquisition of his next movie, “Killers of the Flower Moon,” it had been a decade since a major studio had financed one of his films. “I’m looking at this and I say: Wait a minute. What if I had another 20 years or something, where would I be getting the financing? It’s not going to be the studios. They need the blockbuster. I don’t do those,” Scorsese says. “There’s only so much time in your life. I need to make these movies. I just need to. So where do I go?” JAKE COYLE (AP)

@GINAGRASSO98, supporting actress Bella Thorne, who released semi-nude photos of herself after another person threatened to do so. On “The View” Tuesday, Whoopi Goldberg commented on the incident, saying famous people should know better than to take nudes. Thorne canceled an upcoming appearance on “The View” and said in a Tuesday Instagram Story that Goldberg’s comments made her feel “disgusting.” Goldberg’s supporters insisted she was stating a fact of the social media age.
“It’s JUNETEENTH, so you will be forgiven if you left work RIGHT NOW and went to support a local black business.” @PUREKWEST, celebrating the American holiday recognizing the emancipation of the black people who remained enslaved in the U.S. on June 19, 1865. Though the Emancipation Proclamation was issued in 1862 and went into effect in 1863, it was not enforced in Texas until after the collapse of the Confederacy.

“I think as far as pride celebrations go, it’s safe to say Elijah Daniel won this year.” @NOTBAILEYMARIE, tweeting about the YouTuber and activist’s Pride
Month stunt. Daniel, above, bought the town of Hell, Mich., for the month of June. He’s renamed it Gay Hell and has jokingly allowed only Pride flags to be flown, in protest of the Trump administration denying the requests of embassies that asked to fly the Pride flag this month.

@RVBINSCHERBATS, reacting to actor Mark Hamill’s call for the late Carrie Fisher, his co-star in the “Star Wars” franchise, to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Hamill was responding to a 2018 article about the West Hollywood City Council voting to remove President Trump’s star, which thus far remains.
“BREAKING: Max Scherzer’s nose.” @DINGDONGSALLDAY, joking about the Nationals pitcher’s injury during a Tuesday batting practice. Scherzer broke his nose when a bunted ball rebounded off his bat. Many Twitter users joked that Scherzer’s bunting form was to blame for the wayward hit, insisting baseball pitchers shouldn’t hit. Scherzer still pitched the Nats’ Wednesday game against the Philadelphia Phillies.

TODAY: It will still be considerably cloudy, but with perhaps a little more sun than Wednesday. That, along with a slightly warmer breeze from the southwest, should heat afternoon highs to the upper 80s to near 90, with moderate to high humidity. Scattered showers and storms seem likely late afternoon and into the evening.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’ll receive assistance today, but the result may be that you are forced into a situation that requires you to share responsibilities. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) It’s a good day to look back and assess your progress. You should be able to make up any lost ground.

John exhausts options, finally says, ‘I’m sorry’
How to gain celeb followers A North Carolina teenager who lost a leg in a shark attack this month got a message from Robert Downey Jr. In an Instagram video on Tuesday, the actor said that Paige Winter has a “heroic story of resilience.” The 17-yearold was attacked at a North Carolina beach on June 2 by what was likely a large bull shark. Downey said he would follow the teen on Instagram, and asked her to be an ambassador for his environmental group Footprint Coalition. (AP)
Actor John Cusack apologized on Tuesday for tweeting an anti-Semitic cartoon and quotation after first defending the post, then deleting it. The image showed a blue Star of David above a hand pushing down on a group of people accompanied by a quote frequently misattributed to Voltaire: “To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize.” Cusack added, “Follow the money.” The quotation is a reworking of one from white nationalist and Holocaust denier Kevin Alfred Strom. Cusack initially defended the tweet, accusing Israel of atrocities against Palestinians. He also blamed a Twitter bot for the post before deleting it. (AP)

In a statement to Newsday on Wednesday, Lohan said: “Perhaps not enough drama in my life for [a] reality-TV formula,” adding that her club is moving to Athens, Greece. (EXPRESS)
Former Bachelor Sean Lowe announced Wednesday on Instagram that his wife, Catherine Giudici Lowe, is pregnant with their third child. “The first two have been pretty cool, so why not a third?” Lowe wrote. Giudici Lowe told People that the pregnancy was a “complete surprise.” The couple, who met on Season 17 of “The Bachelor,” got married in 2014. They have two sons, one a year old and the other nearly 3. (EXPRESS)
