“This is your one and only warning!” Video I obtained for @StatusCoup shows ICE threatening a person in Richfield, MN for watching them. The agents reach into the car and repeatedly yell at the driver.

🚨"Every single loss like this one will make the path easier for the next person. We are not done, and I'm not going anywhere...Fuck Trump, Fuck ICE, Free Palestine." -Kat Abughazaleh gives her concession speech in Illinois primary as @JTCestkowski reports ⬇️

Hello from @KatAbughazaleh’s watch party! It’s a race that will be a real indicator of the power of outside spending and the desire among Dem voters for progressive politics. I’ll be going live for @StatusCoup and @MeidasTouch!

BREAKING: The House Oversight Committee just formally subpoenaed Pam Bondi to answer questions about the Epstein investigation behind closed doors on April 14. tinyurl.com/ympvmxh2

NEW: Bank of America reached a settlement with Jeffrey Epstein accusers who alleged it facilitated his sex-trafficking operation. JPMorgan Chase paid $290 million to settle a similar lawsuit, and Deutsche Bank $75 million. businessinsider.com/jeffrey-epstei…

Full story is from Breitbart: breitbart.com/border/2026/03…

JUST IN: Border Patrol commander and nazi cosplayer Greg Bovino is retiring. Last fall, the administration was making noise like Bovino would return to Chicago with 1,000 agents this spring, but then he got demoted and now seems to be disappearing in a puff of tear gas.

BREAKING: Two more people have died in ICE detention, per required notification to Congress.

This search is being partially driven by a desire to investigate a tip to the FBI revealed in the Epstein files that two victims died and were buried on the property.

BREAKING: The @NewMexicoDOJ has begun its on-the-ground investigation of Zorro Ranch TODAY. Epstein survivors have waited for far too long for justice and New Mexico is leading the way in the pursuit of truth and accountability. We are leaving no stone unturned. NM DOJ is seeking credible tips about the crimes committed by Epstein and his associates in NM. You can report them here: nmdoj.gov/get-help/epste…

This would put the US on pace to spend more than $1 trillion on bombs and rockets alone if the war lasted a year. Amazing we can spend this money on killing abroad, but not on healthcare at home.

The Strait of Hormuz has been closed for 8 days. Everyone thinks this is about oil. This is about what oil becomes. 92% of the world's sulfur comes from refining oil and gas. Close the Strait of Hormuz and you don't just lose 20 million barrels of crude per day. You lose the feedstock for sulfuric acid, the single most produced chemical on Earth. Sulfuric acid is how we extract copper. It's how we extract cobalt. Without it, you can't make transformers, EV batteries, or the substrates inside every data center on the planet. One chemical, made from one feedstock, shipped through one chokepoint. The cascade goes further: Qatar ships 30% of Taiwan's liquefied natural gas through Hormuz. Taiwan has 11 days of reserves left. TSMC, the company that makes 90% of the world's advanced chips, draws 8.9% of Taiwan's total electricity. No gas, no power, no chips. Then food. 33% of the world's nitrogen fertilizer feedstock moves through the Strait. Half of all humans alive today exist because of synthetic nitrogen. Sulfur, semiconductors, food. That makes three supply chains, one 21-nautical-mile chokepoint, and zero domestic alternatives at scale.

The @postandcourier checked into the Trump accuser’s story to the FBI. They were able to independently confirm a number of details, corroborating her recollections of people and events at the time

Around 100 people are out protesting in Minneapolis against the war in Iran.

One of the most striking takeaways from my recent interview with @SollenbergerRC was his point that the FBI took an accuser against President Trump of child sexual abuse seriously enough to interview her FOUR TIMES. The FBI doesn't do that if they think the accuser is a crank.

If prediction markets are to be believed, Lori Chavez-DeRemer will be the next Trump official out. She was already seen as a compromise to labor interests. It's not clear to me how Trump continues to court unions with another GOP pick to lead the Labor Department.

.@kylascan basically nails my concerns with prediction markets in her most recent video, EXCEPT she leaves out the possibility that gambling basically replaces work for young people as AI takes over entry-level tasks.

In a post on Instagram, the @Teamsters are again urging their members to burn more than 100,000 buyout offers from UPS to van drivers. The union argued to a judge that the buyouts violate its contract with the company.

It is heartening to see people identify who benefits from replacing their labor. Reagan's trickle-down rhetoric is no longer effective on Americans (if it ever was).
