Russia and Vlad Putin may be seeing light at the end of the tunnel with the war of Ukraine.
The cease fire is over between Israel and Hamas and Hamas is getting the worse of it.
And Joe Biden was right. Domestic terrorism is the biggest threat to the United States. Unfortunately, it’s coming from his side.
News
Here is some news:
- Elon Musk’s attempt to unilaterally dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development likely violated the United States Constitution, a federal judge ruled on Tuesday.
- U.S. District Judge Theodore Chuang ordered Musk and his Department of Government Efficiency to immediately give USAID employees access to their “email, payment, security notification, and all other electronic systems,” and ordered a pause on any efforts to shut down USAID.
- USAID was created by Executive Order.
- A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the Trump administration from terminating $14 billion in grants awarded to three climate groups by the Biden administration, saying the government’s “vague and unsubstantiated assertions of fraud are insufficient.”
- The order by U.S. District Judge Tonya Chutkan prevents — for now — the Environmental Protection Agency from ending the grant program, which totaled $20 billion. The judge also blocked Citibank, which holds the money on behalf of EPA, from transferring it to the government or anyone else.
- A federal judge has indefinitely blocked President Donald Trump’s ban on transgender service members, dealing a major defeat to a controversial policy the president resurrected from his first term.
- In a scathing ruling, US District Judge Ana Reyes said the administration cannot enforce the ban — which was set to take effect later this month.
- Reyes, an appointee of former President Joe Biden, wrote that the ban “is soaked in animus and dripping with pretext. Its language is unabashedly demeaning, its policy stigmatizes transgender persons as inherently unfit, and its conclusions bear no relation to fact.”
- “Indeed, the cruel irony is that thousands of transgender servicemembers have sacrificed – some risking their lives – to ensure for others the very equal protection rights the Military Ban seeks to deny them,” she wrote.
- The Trump administration released tens of thousands of pages of documents on Tuesday related to the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
- Two NASA astronauts left stranded in space for nine months after a Boeing spacecraft malfunction finally made their journey home Tuesday in a SpaceX capsule, with President Trump saying that they had been “virtually abandoned” by the Biden administration.
- The SpaceX Dragon capsule carrying Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore, along with NASA astronaut Nick Hague and Russian cosmonaut Aleksandr Gorbunov, departed from the International Space Station at 1:05 a.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, and splashed down off Florida’s coast at around 6 p.m.
- What was initially planned as an eight-day mission aboard Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft launched on June 5 turned into a nine-month ordeal when the capsule experienced multiple helium leaks and thruster malfunctions.
- In January, Trump said he asked SpaceX founder Elon Musk to “go get” the astronauts whom he characterized as having been “virtually abandoned in space by the Biden Administration.”

Russia Sees an Opening
President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin held a lengthy call on March 18, 2025, focused on negotiating a ceasefire to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. The discussions lasted nearly three hours, with Trump seeking Moscow’s agreement on a U.S.-led ceasefire plan. Ukraine had already agreed to a 30-day ceasefire during prior negotiations with U.S. representatives in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
The talks reportedly included discussions about territorial concessions and the division of key assets, such as the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which has been contested since the start of the war. While the White House expressed optimism about achieving peace, skepticism remains regarding Putin’s sincerity and the concessions Trump might offer.
Putin delayed the call by two hours and gave a hardline anti-Western speech beforehand, raising concerns in Kyiv and European capitals that Trump may cede too much ground to Russia. The outcome of the talks remains uncertain as Putin outlined additional conditions for the ceasefire.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has outlined several key conditions for agreeing to a ceasefire in Ukraine:
- Military Restrictions on Ukraine: Putin demands that Ukraine halt mobilization, troop training, and the receipt of Western military aid during the ceasefire period, expressing concerns that Ukraine could use the pause to regroup and rearm its forces.
- Territorial Concessions: He insists on the withdrawal or surrender of Ukrainian troops from contested areas, particularly in Russia’s Kursk region, where Ukrainian forces have made incursions.
- NATO and Security Guarantees: Putin reiterates earlier demands that Ukraine renounce aspirations to join NATO and significantly reduce its military capabilities to align with Russian security interests.
- Monitoring and Compliance: He questions how compliance with the ceasefire will be enforced, raising doubts about oversight mechanisms and whether violations will be effectively addressed.
These conditions reflect Russia’s broader strategic goals, making them difficult for Ukraine to accept without significant concessions from Moscow or international guarantees.
Finish Them Off
According to Fox News:
Israeli strikes on the Gaza Strip eliminated the head of the Hamas government and other key terrorist leaders in a wave of violence following the collapse of their ceasefire agreement, Israeli forces announced Tuesday.
The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and the Israel Security Agency (ISA), also known as Shin Bet, said in a joint statement that the airstrikes eliminated Essam al-Da’alis, head of the Hamas government and “the most senior figure of authority in the Gaza Strip.”
The IDF and ISA also determined with “high probability” that Israeli strikes eliminated Mahmoud Marzouk Ahmed Abu-Watfa, the Minister of Internal Affairs in charge of Hamas’ Internal Security Forces; Bahajat Hassan Mohammed Abu-Sultan, who served as Head of Hamas’ Internal Security Forces; and Ahmed Amar Abdullah Alhata, who served as Hamas’ Minister of Justice.
At least 404 Palestinians, including women and children, have been killed in the airstrikes so far, according to the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry. The death toll has not been independently verified.
President Donald Trump’s administration backed Israel’s move to end the ceasefire in a statement on Monday.
Reasons for the Ceasefire Collapse
- Hostage Release Dispute: Israel demanded the release of the remaining hostages held by Hamas, while Hamas insisted on transitioning to discussions for a permanent resolution, including a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza12.
- U.S. Involvement: The U.S. supported Israel’s stance, with President Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff urging Hamas to adopt a more pragmatic approach.
- Military Escalation: Israel resumed airstrikes, citing Hamas’ refusal to release hostages and alleged preparations for further attacks.
Current Situation
- Violence Escalation: On March 18, 2025, Israel launched extensive airstrikes across Gaza, resulting in over 400 fatalities and significant destruction24.
- Hamas Response: Hamas accused Israel of breaching the ceasefire and called for international accountability34.
- Future Negotiations: The future of negotiations remains uncertain, with both sides accusing each other of violating the agreement12.
More Domestic Terrorism
Do you remember this?
According to the Post Millennial:
Authorities in Las Vegas are investigating a case of suspected arson after multiple vehicles were set on fire at a Tesla service center early Tuesday morning.
Police said that officers received reports around 2:45 am of someone igniting vehicles at the Tesla collision center near Jones Boulevard and Badura Avenue, reports Fox 5 Vegas. Both Las Vegas Metro police and Clark County fire crews responded to the scene, shutting down the surrounding area as investigations began.
At this time, police have not specified what types of vehicles were targeted. However, the incident comes amid a string of Tesla-related attacks across the country, many of which have been linked to protests against Elon Musk’s political involvement and his ties to the Trump administration. Video obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal appeared to show Tesla cars engulfed in flames.
Authorities have not confirmed if the Las Vegas fire was politically motivated or connected to these nationwide incidents.
There have been several instances of violence and vandalism committed against Tesla facilities and vehicles across the United States. Here are some of the notable incidents:
- Las Vegas Attack:
- On March 18, 2025, a targeted attack occurred at a Tesla Collision Center in Las Vegas. Multiple Tesla vehicles were set on fire using Molotov cocktails, and at least three gunshots were fired into the vehicles. The word “RESIST” was spray-painted on the center’s doors. The FBI is assisting in the investigation.
- Kansas City Incident:
- On the same day as the Las Vegas attack, two Tesla Cybertrucks were set on fire at a Tesla store in Kansas City. Arson is suspected, but not confirmed. The Kansas City Police Department’s Bomb and Arson unit is investigating.
- San Diego Vandalism:
- In San Diego, multiple Tesla vehicles were found with swastikas spray-painted on them, along with offensive language on the dealership’s windows. No arrests have been made in this incident.
- Tigard, Oregon:
- On March 13, 2025, over a dozen shots were fired at a Tesla dealership in Tigard, Oregon, causing damage to vehicles and windows. This was the second such incident at that location within a week.
- Seattle Incident:
- On March 9, 2025, four Tesla Cybertrucks were damaged in a fire at a dealership in Seattle. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.
- North Charleston, South Carolina:
- A man accidentally set his clothing on fire while attempting to vandalize Tesla charging stations. He was wearing a shirt with a politically charged message.
- Little, Massachusetts:
- Tesla charging stations were significantly damaged in fires believed to be intentionally set on March 3, 2025.
- Owings Mills, Maryland:
- Graffiti resembling a swastika was discovered at a Tesla dealership, with the message “No Musk”.
- Colorado Arrest:
- A woman, Lucy Grace Nelson, was arrested for vandalizing a Tesla dealership in northern Colorado by spray-painting “Nazi” and starting small fires using Molotov cocktails.
These incidents are part of a broader trend of protests and violence against Tesla, largely in response to Elon Musk’s involvement in the Trump administration’s cost-cutting initiatives
