Pride Month is here. It’s a month to celebrate the achievements of LGBTQ Americans and the impact they’ve had on our past and present. But it’s also a weird and very scary time for a lot of people. So what do we do now — at a time that somehow feels both great yet increasingly scary? To find out, we spoke with Human Rights Campaign President Kelley Robinson. And in headlines, Iran’s top diplomat says the tentative deal to end the war would require Israel to withdraw from Lebanon, House Judiciary Ranking Member Jamie Raskin announces an investigation into FBI Director Kash Patel, and Vice President JD Vance braves the most intimidating interview known to man.

  • I think the now's a sobering moment because we're actually realizing that we weren't as close to equality as we thought.

  • And we've got to continue the work in anyone that had bounced out of the fight after marriage.

  • Hey, you got to get back in because it is not over.

  • I mean, it's, I guess, good in theory, but if they got one guy here only trying to, you know,

  • get the whole thing blue again, I think he's going to be here for a few years.

  • Ask anyone with a swimming pool.

  • You cannot stop it.

  • You can only hope to delay it.

  • Algae always wins.

  • On today's show, I speak with Human Rights Campaign President Kelly Robinson about Pride, the LGBTQ rights movement,

  • and how we can keep moving forward when some want to hold us back.

  • Before we get into all that, here's what we're following today, Tuesday, June 16th.

  • This is taxpayer free.

  • We have no taxpayer putting up 10 cents.

  • Back in March, Trump insisted his supposed $400 million ballroom would not cost taxpayers a dime.

  • And to give him credit, that was technically true because the price tag was higher for everyone.

  • According to the Washington Post, a contractor estimate from earlier

  • that month said the project would actually cost $600 million, and taxpayers would foot about half the bill.

  • In May, Trump estimated his ballroom will be up and running in about two years.

  • What a great gift to Americans, something they didn't want that they have to chip in for.
