In a powerful callout, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed Congress and the White House over insider trading. Elected officials shouldn't hold stocks—period. While Martha Stewart went to prison for it, members of Congress routinely outperform the market, raising red flags of insider trading. Donald Trump, for example, told people to buy stocks just before pausing tariffs, triggering a historic $304 billion windfall for billionaires, according to Bloomberg. How many people did Trump tell in private before hitting send on that social media post? Because that would be insider trading. Corruption flows freely in America—like cheap wine at Mar-a-Lago. Now, MAGA Republicans are pushing the SAVE Act, requiring proof of citizenship to vote in federal elections. It's voter suppression dressed up as security. Noncitizen voting is extremely rare, but this bill could disenfranchise millions—including women who changed their names for marriage and trans Americans. It's essentially a poll tax, nationalizing Jim Crow. Democrats could stop it in the Senate—unless a handful cave. Four House Democrats already backed it. If passed, this could become the next Citizens United, further empowering oligarchs like Elon Musk and paving Trump's path to authoritarian rule. What can you do? Show up. Protest. Call your senators, especially those who caved on the budget battle. Demand accountability. And yes, let's talk about AOC primarying Chuck Schumer or Kirsten Gillibrand—New York, an the nation, deserves better. For more on how to fight back, check the Gaslit Nation Action Guide at GaslitNationPod.com. Join us Monday, April 14, for a salon on defeating oligarchy, with special guests–Patrick Guarasci and Sam Roecker, senior advisors to Judge Susan Crawford's victorious Wisconsin Supreme Court campaign. Together, we're sand in their gears. In this week's bonus show, Gaslit Nation's special guest Adrian Karatnycky takes the Gaslit Nation Self-Care Q&A. Adrian has been on the frontlines fighting for democracy both at home and abroad. In his critically acclaimed book Battleground Ukraine, he traces Ukraine's struggle for independence from the fall of the Soviet Union to Russia's genocidal invasion today, drawing important lessons for protecting democracies worldwide. He has worked alongside civil rights legend Bayard Rustin and the AFL-CIO, the largest federation of unions in America. He also supported Poland's Solidarity movement, which helped bring down the Iron Curtain, and played a key role, along with iconic Soviet dissident, writer, and Czech statesman Václav Havel, in preserving Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty in the 1990s, when many thought the Cold War had ended.

The U.S. Agency for International Development is taking its final steps toward shuttering, sending a memo last Thursday to bureau heads focused on recruiting workers on administrative leave to assist with final steps required to decommission the agency. The memo states that the “default position” is that all staff are reporting to work — except those who have been requested and approved to go on administrative leave — and that USAID employees may be asked to work beyond their typical subject areas and to help with other projects. Those based in a bureau or independent office are supposed to have a space allotment, though managers are instructed to minimize the need for people to be shifted in and out of work. Teams that do not have an onsite presence will need to return to the office for “closeout procedures,” the email adds. Democrats on the House Oversight Committee sent a letter to White House officials Monday expressing serious concerns about the recent installation of Starlink internet service in the executive branch complex. The letter, which was signed by Reps. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., and Shontel Brown, D-Ohio and shared exclusively with FedScoop, comes amid reports that Starlink — provided by Elon Musk's SpaceX — is now integrated into the White House property's IT systems. The members of Congress are also flagging the use of the internet service at the General Services Administration. A physical Starlink terminal connects to the low-Earth orbit satellite constellation that provides the internet service. But the White House has gone further than simply purchasing that equipment — the service has now been connected and routed into an administration data center.

Une journée noire a commencé lundi 7 avril sur les marchés boursiers mondiaux. En Asie, les Bourses ont dévissé ; Taïwan a fermé à presque -10% et Hong Kong à -13%. Le choc est moins dur en Europe, mais la tendance pas plus optimiste : -5% à Francfort et Paris. Les marchés sont paniqués à cause de l'offensive douanière lancée par Donald Trump et les représailles chinoises qui font craindre davantage une escalade destructrice pour l'économie mondiale. Les cours du pétrole s'enfoncent quant à eux de 3%, à des niveaux plus vus depuis quatre ans. Quelles conséquences les Américains vont-ils tirer des bénéfices de cette nouvelle donne ? L'analyse d'Alexandre Baradez, responsable analyse des marchés pour la société IG France.

These firms have been key drivers of market performance in recent years due to their size, influence, and heavy weighting in indices like the Nasdaq. Bessent suggests that the selloff is primarily driven by issues specific to these tech giants, such as overvaluation, slowing earnings growth, or sector-specific pressures (e.g., competition in AI or shifts in investor sentiment), rather than broader economic or political factors. "Not a MAGA problem": "MAGA" stands for "Make America Great Again," a slogan associated with President Donald Trump and his policy agenda, particularly following his re-election in November 2024. Policies tied to MAGA, like steep tariffs or deregulation, have been speculated to impact markets. Bessent, as Treasury Secretary in Trump's administration, is arguing that the selloff isn't a result of these Trump-related policies but rather stems from the dynamics affecting the Mag7 stocks.

Volkswagen will add import fees to vehicle prices, while Volvo and Mercedes-Benz are considering expanding U.S. manufacturing to avoid the 25% duties, according to Bloomberg. Mercedes may move production of a model to Alabama to offset tariffs and is weighing pulling its cheaper cars from the U.S. after a 58% sales jump in its top-selling import, the GLC SUV. Germany's economy minister backed EU talks with the U.S. but warned of a “clear and decisive response” if no deal is reached, calling the tariffs a risk to global stability. Volkswagen, which builds cars in Tennessee, still imports key models from Europe and Mexico. The U.S. now makes up 20% of its revenue, helped by a 7% sales boost in 2024. BMW imports 60% of its U.S. sales and depends on European parts for its South Carolina plant. Mercedes' Alabama factory faces similar supply chain exposure. Volvo plans to expand U.S. production,

Trump's Liberation Day tariff strategy is expanding fast, now targeting all nations with reciprocal trade pressure, and Wall Street is rattled.

The silencing of the Voice of America is "a geopolitical blunder for the USA," according to Clayton Weimers, executive director of Reporters Without Borders USA. The group, VOA reporters and a handful of unions has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Agency for Global Media and Kari Lake, who is President Trump's representative there. Weimers and Geoffrey Cowan, a University of Southern California professor, and a former director of the Voice of America, talk with Host Llewellyn King about the work of VOA and the consequences of the shutdown.

Here is the problem what Canadians don't seem to realize is that questioning their sovereignty is simply a strategy by President Trump to eliminate the one-sided trade relationship with Canada.

These bridges, constructed before 1991, lack recent "vulnerability assessments" to gauge their risk of collapse from vessel collisions. The NTSB directed its recommendations to 30 bridge owners nationwide, including those managing notable structures like the Golden Gate Bridge in California, the Brooklyn Bridge in New York, and the Sunshine Skyway Bridge in Florida. The Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District responded by affirming its compliance with regulations and noting a consultant was hired this year to assess the bridge's resilience to ship impacts. The NTSB clarified that its advice doesn't imply imminent danger but encourages owners to ensure risks align with standards set by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). The bridges are classified as either "critical/essential" (like the Key Bridge) or "typical," based on their significance. The NTSB's push follows new findings from the Key Bridge investigation, where a cargo ship's power failure led to the bridge's collapse, killing six of eight workers. The agency noted that a proper risk assessment could have identified the Key Bridge's excessive vulnerability—nearly 30 times above...
