Happy 5th of July, Portland. Please god tell me you expended your illegal fireworks supplies for the year. Some of us we actually trying to get shuteye last night.

Everybody's very excited about Juno this morning. The NASA probe has been flying for five years, and just locked into orbit around Jupiter. Science!

Mike Marshman, Portland's new police chief, is off to something of a rocky start, after an incident where he reportedly grabbed his step-son by the neck has trickled into the public eye. It happened more than a decade ago, and an investigation—conducted years after the fact—found it was too late to prosecute.

Remember how we were curious about the federal government's conveniently low price tags for cleaning up the Willamette River? More and more people are saying they're fishy.

What are people mad at Donald Trump about today? A seemingly anti-Semitic tweet, obviously!

Meanwhile, the NYT writes about an increasingly powerful figure in the Trump campaign: his 35-year-old son in law. Who's Jewish by the way, but apparently not mad about that tweet.

The Timesis also trying to ruin granola for everyone.

Another chief proponent of the Brexit steps down, right after winning.

Weather looking decent. But can anything really ease the transition back into work after a long weekend? I submit: No.
