BREAKING: You checked the weather this morning. And you just told a surveillance company where you sleep. Meet #Webloc, used by ICE, cops & foreign govs to track 500m+ phones. No warrant required. Our @citizenlab.ca investigation + how to protect yourself 🧵/1 citizenlab.ca/research/ana...

The Presidential Records Act isn’t complicated. It was passed after Watergate for a reason & it’s very clear about what belongs to the public & what doesn’t. That’s what makes the new position DOJ is taking so disturbing. I explain here: joycevance.substack.com/p/killing-hi...

SCOOP: Army Secretary Dan Driscoll has no plans to resign or otherwise leave his role at the Pentagon, he said in a statement on Tuesday, after a series of clashes with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth have prompted questions about how long they can coexist. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

FYI... Somebody should tell the governor of Texas that this photo is AI-generated. Neither the US military nor the White House has released any images from the rescue.

NEW: It's not just Gen. Randy George on the way out. Defense officials tell me and Tara Copp that Hegseth also is removing: Gen. David Hodne, commander of Transformation and Training Command Maj. Gen. William Green Jr., head of the Army's chaplain corps www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

1 week from today! Set you calendars On April 9, 1865, Confederate General Robert E. Lee surrendered the Army of Northern Virginia to Union General Ulysses S. Grant at the McLean House in Appomattox Court House, VA, signaling the effective end of the Civil War.

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

NEW: CNN found a Nebraska Democratic Senate candidate attended a GOP training event just months before filing for Senate. The Dem state party calls him a GOP plant to "trick voters" — he tells me he's a "free thinker," but admits voting for Trump. www.cnn.com/2026/03/30/p...

Happy 25th anniversary to all who celebrate Randy Johnson Hits a Bird Day!

"NPR found five other people in Illinois, Oregon and Minnesota who...said they were arrested, seemingly without provocation, while protesting ICE and then had officers take or try to take what appeared to be a sample of their DNA." www.npr.org/2026/03/18/n...

“Rights advocates said they were alarmed by the proposal, which they saw as part of a drive by the administration to place homeless people in institutional settings against their will.”

The brand new Gordie Howe Bridge (spanning Detroit and Windsor) has announced their toll rates and they're significantly less than the Ambassador Bridge, whose private owner has lobbied the Trump administration to block the bridge from opening. www.detroitnews.com/story/busine...

The US Department of Defense said they “had nothing to provide” when asked if they had reached any agreement with Iraq to utilize their airspace for cruise missiles targeting a third country. www.bellingcat.com/news/middle-...

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Excellent reporting here by @raphae.li about a hacker who breached an FBI server, apparently without knowing it was the FBI, and accessed the Epstein files. The hacker allegedly threatened to report the server's owner TO THE FBI bc of disgust over CSAM on the server, www.reuters.com/world/us/for...

EXCLUSIVE: Jay Graber stepping down as CEO of Bluesky www.wired.com/story/bluesk...

All one needs to know about why Scott MacFarlane -- one the of the network's most high-profile and respected correspondents -- left CBS News is spelled out in this tweet of his in January, where he unsubtly calls out his network for not airing his J6 deep-dive report. It aired, instead, on the BBC.

The military draft comment from Leavitt feels like a trial balloon. If there's enough outcry, Trump denies it and Leavitt falls on her sword for "misspeaking." If there's not, Trump and Hegseth bring it up casually and slowly push. For example, Trump may "joke" about it as a next step. 1/2

This is a bombshell: "the Pentagon wanted the company to allow for the collection and analysis of unclassified, commercial bulk data on Americans, such as geolocation and web browsing data" This kind of agenda echoes the defunded Total Information Awareness effort, post-9/11

Analysis | With Stephen Miller running America's domestic policy, Benjamin Netanyahu running its foreign policy, and Donald Trump heading up interior decorating and bribe-taking, the executive branch has tripled its efficiency.

The Supreme Court's second and final ruling of the day, USPS v. Konan, bars lawsuits against the Postal Service for maliciously and intentionally refusing to deliver someone's mail. It's 5–4, with Gorsuch joining the liberals in dissent. Bad decision! www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

We used to live in a country that worked like this: 1. Congress passes a "you can't sue if USPS lost your mail" law. 2. SCOTUS says "that means you can't sue if USPS threw your mail away." 3. Congress passes a law saying "you absolutely can, because "lost" and "threw away" are different."

NEW: A hobbyist has created Nearby Glasses, an app that warns you if someone close by is wearing smart glasses. 404 Media spoke to the creator who said he was inspired by our coverage that uncovers how men are wearing Meta's Ray-Bans to covertly film massage parlor workers.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right. Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement. This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

BREAKING: The Supreme Court STRIKES DOWN Trump's "emergency" tariffs. The vote is 6–3. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

There are no conditions under which it makes sense to think of LLMs as sentient or having self-hood. The philosophy of why isn’t even all that complicated. But having philosophers on-staff who will gesture at spookier conclusions is good for hype, so the firms find ones who will gesture nonetheless.

Judge Rufe's opinion ordering the Trump administration to restore truthful panels about Washington's ownership of enslaved persons from the President's House site in Phila is here. (I jailbroke it from PACER.) TL;DR: Gov't acted arbitrarily, capriciously. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
