Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fears Russia’s war could escalate into a world war. “There won’t be a safe place — there won't be a safe place for [anyone],” Zelenskyy says. https://cbsn.ws/4ibE9R9

There’s a special place in HELL for anyone who stands before the Supreme Court and argues that a man they wrongfully sent to an El Salvadorian death camp should stay there.

Raskin: If they can just sweep someone off the street, put them on an airplane, and send them to a torturer’s prison in an authoritarian state like El Salvador without due process… then they could do it to anybody.

“Mommy, no. Mommy.” Daughter captures the moment masked ICE agents smash the window of her mother's car in order to take her into custody. The government claims the 52-year old seamstress is an associate of the MS-13 gang. www.thebaltimorebanner.com/community/lo...

In a firmly paywalled subscribers-only article, CNN reports Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, voted in Hawaii last year after signing a sworn declaration of Texas residency and claiming a homestead exemption in that state. www.cnn.com/2025/04/09/p...

JUST IN: After criticism, the National Park Service has restored an old Underground Railroad webpage that prominently features Harriet Tubman.

NEWS: Tesla protests grow across the world on the Global Day of Action, the Wisconsin Appellate court allows Elon Musk's pay for vote scheme to move forward, and RFK Jr. fires HIV epidemic prevention staff. aaronparnas.substack.com/p/tesla-prot...

“There is no administration in the world — beyond this one — where a blunder of these proportions happens and nobody gets fired or resigns. Not in London. Not in Moscow. Not in Tokyo. Not in Pyongyang. Nowhere.” www.politico.com/newsletters/...

The fact that the Department of Justice has not, and will never, launch an investigation into this massive national security breach tells you all you need to know about this lawless and profoundly corrupt Administration.

SCOOP: A WIRED review of public data shows that national security adviser Mike Waltz, White House chief of staff Susie Wiles, and other top officials left sensitive information exposed via Venmo—until WIRED asked about it.

this is disgusting.

“Nobody’s texting war plans”

ABC News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CBS News: "An unthinkable breach of national security." MSNBC: "An unthinkable breach of national security." CNN: "An unthinkable breach of national security." Fox News: "We've all texted the wrong person before."

Crow: You were also traveling during this discussion, correct? Gabbard: Yes. Crow: And where were you? Gabbard: I don't recall which country I was in at that time. Crow: You don't remember the country?

This guy is in one of the worst prisons in the world with no way out and may spend the rest of his life there because, it appears, he has an autism awareness tattoo in honor of his little brother. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

L. Brent Bozell III, who Trump tapped to become ambassador to South Africa, was in a coalition that opposed Nelson Mandela's political party during apartheid. After Mandela died, Bozell, criticized news coverage that "mythologizes" the South African leader. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trumps-...

🔑 under-discussed point — why they were on signal:

Wow- Himes during a heated exchange w/Will Cain on Fox: "I'm not gonna listen to to you tell me that this about a partisan advantage...it is by the grace of God that we don't have dead pilots right now...it makes me want to throw up to hear you turn this into a partisan issue. You just need to stop"

🚨 CBS News has received an internal NSA bulletin from Feb 2025 warning staff NOT to use Signal app for sensitive info, citing vulnerabilities to Russian hackers. These docs were sent pre-Houthi chat scandal with Jeffrey Goldberg.

Pete Hegseth must resign or be fired immediately.

This Paul Weiss capitulation is the most disgraceful action by a major law firm in my lifetime, so appalling that I couldn’t believe it at first. Any lawyers at that firm—partners or associates—who don’t promptly resign will defile their moral and professional reputations beyond repair.

elon musk personally reinstated the account of a MAGA influencer who posted stills from a video of a nine-year-old girl being raped to death they weren't stills from elsewhere on the internet. they had his watermark on them

Trump reinstated security clearances for a major law firm, Paul Weiss, after the firm agreed to provide $40 million in legal services to support administration initiatives Essentially a bribe, which Trump accepted

This is one of the saddest capitulations I have ever seen. A law firm honored for its bravery has more than bent the knee and kissed the ring: it has paid the ransom demanded by Trump. www.nytimes.com/2025/03/20/u...

This is the story that Karoline Leavitt said probably wasn’t accurate when it was first reported by Reuters because she said they aren’t reliable.

News: Pentagon spokesperson John Ullyot is being reassigned after his defense of a controversial anti-D.E.I. website purge sparked backlash, a rapid reversal, and a media firestorm. Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/pentagone-...

I’m not much of a theologian but I do not believe doing this to people is forgivable www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

And yet it is even more fucked up that we are now dealing with an openly fascist government that disappears Palestinian protestors with Green Cards without due process, ethnic cleansing, and paving over Gaza. At some point people have to take responsibility for their individual agency.

NEW: Among the work jammed up by the Trump administration's freeze on government purchase cards is genealogy research that the Army sees as essential to identify the remains of soldiers who went missing in combat. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Tadaa.

The examples of research deemed unnecessary focuses mostly on the relationship between climate change and conflict, and research on extremism. All of the social science research being cut amounts to a fraction of the cost of a single fighter jet.

Trump's betrayal of Ukraine has catastrophic consequences, as 10,000 Ukrainian soldiers face encirclement in the Kursk region. According to The Telegraph, the main offensive against the Ukrainian armed forces began right after the United States stopped sharing intelligence with Ukraine.
