  The Tesla CEO is putting his money where his electric cars are, buying 2.57 million shares, in a show of confidence in the company as its shareholders prepare to vote on a pay package that could make Musk the world’s first trillionaire. Investors and analysts cheered his first purchase of the stock in the open market since February 2020, sending the share price up 3.26% yesterday—putting it up 85% from its April low to erase its losses for the year. But Musk’s big potential payday also gained a notable detractor: Pope Leo criticized the disparity between worker and CEO salaries, specifically referencing Musk’s potential package and saying, “If that is the only thing that has value anymore, then we’re in big trouble.”

  U.S. announces deadly strike on another alleged drug boat. President Trump said on Truth Social that the military had killed three “male terrorists” in a strike on a boat allegedly carrying drugs from Venezuela in international waters. Tensions were already running high between the US and Venezuela after a previous strike two weeks ago killed 11 people on a boat that the US said was transporting drugs, allegedly with a connection to the Tren de Aragua gang. Venezuela and some scholars in the US had raised questions over whether that strike was legal, but with the second strike, the administration appeared to be doubling down on the aggressive strategy.

  Maurene Comey—a federal prosecutor involved in cases against Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and the daughter of former FBI head James Comey—sued the Justice Department yesterday over her firing. The suit claims she was terminated because of her perceived political views, or her connection to her father, or both.

  President Donald Trump's efforts to derail offshore wind are hitting Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massachusetts hard, prompting their Democratic governors to explore creative solutions to help keep the industry on track. One involves potentially supporting Enbridge's plan to expand a natural gas pipeline system in the region. "Knowing that increasing supply directly impacts cost, I would be open to reviewing proposals for other forms of energy generation, including a gas pipeline or nuclear power," said Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee.
