In a dramatic scene that unfolded in the wee hours this morning, members of the House defeated a ploy by the administration and Speaker Johnson to ram through a 5-year reauthorization of FISA Section 702. Here’s what happened, and what will/should happen next. 1/20

From @S_Fitzpatrick, via @TheAtlantic: "Several officials told me that Patel’s drinking has been a recurring source of concern across the government. They said that he is known to drink to the point of obvious intoxication, in many cases at the private club Ned’s in Washington, D.C., while in the presence of White House and other administration staff." theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

I spoke to 2 dozen people familiar with Patel’s conduct for this story, many of whom described it as a national security vulnerability. In response to 19 detailed questions, Patel said: “Print it, all false. I’ll see you in court - bring your checkbook.”

EXCLUSIVE: Kash Patel’s colleagues are alarmed by what they say is erratic behavior and excessive drinking. I spoke with more than 2 dozen people with knowledge of his conduct, some of whom described it as a national security vulnerability. @TheAtlantic theatlantic.com/politics/2026/…

Sean Hannity called himself “uniquely qualified” to lecture Pope Leo XIV on the Bible Thursday night. Hannity called the U.S.-born pontiff a “run-of-the-mill Trump-hating Democrat that lacks moral clarity about radical Islam.” Pope Leo XIV holds four degrees and a doctorate in canon law from the world’s most prestigious Catholic university. Hannity is a three-time college dropout who publicly quit the Catholic Church. thelettersfromleo.com/p/im-uniquely-…

STOLTENBERG: My country, Norway, borders Russia. Just on other side of our land border, we see highest concentration of nuclear weapons in the world: missiles, submarines, bombers. These weapons are not directed at Norway — they're directed at United States. Yet Norway helps United States monitor and track those submarines, share intelligence, provide early warning, and report precisely what Russians are doing. This is part of America’s homeland defense, delivered by a NATO ally. And there are many other similar examples. So United States is safer with a strong NATO. That is why I expect and believe the United States will remain committed to the Alliance.

Tyler Robinson’s defense attorneys just told the judge something stunning. The FBI and ATF claimed Robinson’s DNA was found on the rifle’s trigger, ammunition casings and multiple towels. The prosecution never turned that evidence over. Not in physical form. Not in digital form. None of it. Is that because it doesn’t exist? The attempted assassination of a sitting president. And the DNA evidence cited in the probable cause statement was never produced. Questions that deserve answers.

Zelensky suggests that if Lukashenko enables Russian attacks on Ukraine from Belarus then Lukashenko can be captured by Ukrainian special forces and taken to Ukraine to face justice, akin to the US operation in Venezuela to capture the dictator Maduro.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський@ZelenskyyUa

Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi delivered his report. First of all, regarding the front line – I am grateful to all our units that are holding their positions and repelling Russian assaults. The high pace of eliminating occupiers continues in April. The Russians are not succeeding in seizing the initiative on the front, and that is important. We are also observing attempts by the occupying forces to regroup – most likely in order to compensate for a shortage of personnel. In this context, it is becoming increasingly clear why military activity in Belarus has increased. According to intelligence, the construction of roads toward Ukrainian territory and the development of artillery positions are underway in the Belarusian border areas. We believe that Russia may once again attempt to drag Belarus into its war. I have instructed that appropriate channels be used to warn the de facto leadership of Belarus about Ukraine’s readiness to defend its land and independence. The nature and consequences of recent events in Venezuela should serve as a warning to the Belarusian leadership against making mistakes. We also discussed with the Commander-in-Chief our further long-range operations. Glory to Ukraine!

OMG Kash Patel a drunken national security threat "Meetings and briefings had to be rescheduled for later in the day as a result of his alcohol-fueled nights." "A request for 'breaching equipment'...was made last year because Patel had been unreachable behind locked doors."

Pete Hegseth has issued a memo directing the Pentagon to terminate the union contracts of 300,000 workers in the Department of Defense. This illegal move will undoubtedly be challenged in court.

BREAKING: Justice Samuel Alito NOT retiring. Sources close to Justice Alito confirm the Fox News report that he has decided not to step down this year. In addition, sources close to Justice Thomas tell me he’s not retiring. That indicates that this year, with the midterms on the horizon, Trump will not be making his 4th nomination to SCOTUS.

Just 20 minutes before Trump announced the Strait of Hormuz was open—Someone dumped 7,990 lots of Brent crude futures. A $760 million bet that oil prices would drop. Orders far larger than anything else in the market at that moment. They made a fortune. But somebody knew the announcement was coming. This is insider trading at the highest level of government.

He got the Strait closed, disrupted the entire global economy, exploded gas prices, wrecked our alliances, killed thousands of innocent people including young girls at a school, depleted American missile stockpiles, degraded our Middle East military bases, and destroyed America’s global standing only to get the Strait reopened on Iran’s terms and potentially give them $20 billion. The art of the deal!

Nobody declares victory after losses more often or as loudly as Donald Trump.
