Seventeen others were wounded but are expected to recover. The FBI has identified the shooter as a 23-year-old male who identified as female. President Donald Trump has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff nationwide.Russia launched one of its largest air assaults on Kyiv in weeks early on Thursday. At least 15 people are dead with more than 40 injured. Nearly 100 buildings were damaged as rescuers continue searching for survivors. Ukraine's interior minister says children were among the casualties. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attack.The Trump administration is taking over management of Washington's Union Station from Amtrak, with Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy saying his department will be investing in cleaning up the station. Duffy also took one of Amtrak's new next-generation Acela trains to New York City's Penn station to announce new measures to revamp the rail hub. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is supporting the renovation plans, and construction is set to begin in 2027 after the design is finished.

On today's Front Page: A shooter opened fire through the windows of a Catholic church in Minneapolis and struck children celebrating Mass, killing two and wounding 17, President Trump has ramped up pressure to force Russian President Vladimir Putin into a face-to-face summit with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and more.

May 22nd is the National Day of Prayer and Remembrance for Mariners and Seafarers. Bishop Brendan Cahill discusses the ministry of the church to seafarers through the work of Stella Maris. The day is intended to remember the men and women seafarers. Many seafarers are Catholic Christians and largely a migrant population in the world. Because of the nature of their work, they are not always a visible community presence. In over 50 ports, there are more than 100 Stella Maris chaplains, maritime deacons, and lay ecclesial ministers who minister to seafarers. They welcome, network, and reach out to seafarers, fishermen and women, their families, and all who work or travel on the seas. Through the celebration of the Eucharist and the Word of God, the chaplaincy team helps seafarers discover the loving presence of God in an often-challenging world. Their continued presence is a clear indication of their dedication to this vital pastoral ministry and love for the people of the sea. https://www.usccb.org/committees/pastoral-care-migrants-refugees-travelers/stella-maris-who-we-are On Wednesday, May 10, a panel of advisors to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) voted unanimously to make the birth-control drug, Opill, available to consumers over-the-counter in the United States. The FDA is reportedly poised to make a final decision this summer. In response to the FDA panel's recommendation, Bishop Robert E. Barron of Winona-Rochester, and chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops' (USCCB) Committee on Laity, Marriage, Family Life and Youth, urged the government agency to reject this advice as “not good medicine” and continue their efforts to protect women's health. Read the full statement. https://www.usccb.org/news/2023/fda-acknowledges-harm-oral-contraceptives-while-its-own-panel-advisors-push-make-drug After literally hundreds of public prayers for peace in Ukraine and 443 days after Russia launched an all-out war on the Eastern European country, Pope Francis welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to the Vatican.

As Russia continues to pour cold water on the prospect of an imminent summit between Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelensky, efforts to end the war in Ukraine appear to have returned to a familiar holding pattern. Despite the fanfare surrounding key summits in Alaska and Washington, significant divisions remain on key issues from territorial concessions to security guarantees. So, with Trump once again restarting the clock on the deadline for Russian cooperation, what sort of progress can we expect in the coming weeks?Today, we're joined from Ukraine's Donbas region by our correspondent Quentin Sommerville, to discuss how the lives of those on the front line are being materially affected by diplomatic deadlock. And, former senior US intelligence officer Andrea Kendall-Taylor gives her view on what it would take for headway to be made in peace negotiations.You can fill out our audience questionnaire here: bit.ly/ukrainecastfeedback This episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko.

This is spiralling out of control... In recent days, we've seen tensions in Eastern Europe take an unexpected turn. The attack on a key pipeline seems to have been just the opening move in what some are calling a dangerous escalation. We're also seeing Ukrainian President Zelensky making some bold demands—like a perpetual billion-dollar commitment from NATO countries. He wants us to send him 1 billion dollars in perpetuity. He's also stepping back from previously discussed land concessions that were supposed to be a cornerstone of the peace talks.

On today's Strategy Series program, sponsored by General Atomic Aeronautical Systems, Sam Bendett of the Center for Naval Analyses and Dr. Eugene Rumer, the director of the Russia and Eurasia program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, join Defense & Aerospace Report Editor Vago Muradian to discuss the outlook for peace between Ukraine and Russia in the wake of President Trump's meetings with Vladimir Putin in Alaska and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as well as allied leaders in Washington; status of the fighting as Russia continues to creep forward; how Ukraine manages to slow Russian advances as well as stop and push back significant incursions; whether the notion of granting Russia's demand for all of Donbas will lead to a lasting peace or merely pave the way for a third Russian attack; and what shape a peacekeeping force might take as the president suggests openness to supporting allied troops in Ukraine as well as US air power as Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney visits Kyiv to discuss a peacekeeping role.

President Trump has made clear he's interested in ending the war Russia has waged on Ukraine. After a flurry of diplomatic meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a variety of European leaders, is the prospect of peace near? We hear from NPR's correspondent in Moscow and a national security correspondent from the New York Times on whether progress has been made.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

In this lively episode of Mark and Pete, the duo tackle three curious tales from the worlds of culture, politics, and everyday life. First up: the passing of Ronnie Rondell Jnr, the Hollywood stuntman who made others famous while remaining largely unknown. From being set alight on the cover of Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here to crashing through scenes in Batman and Robin and The Mighty Ducks, his life sparks reflection on the unsung heroes who risk everything but rarely get the applause. Next, the Tesco Meal Deal — a staple of students and low-income workers alike — has crept up in price once again. That 25p rise may sound small, but it's a big bite out of already-stretched budgets. Mark and Pete chew over what this means for ordinary folk, and whether it's time to rediscover thriftier ways of feeding body and soul. Finally, we turn to the world of politics and pixels: Emmanuel Macron, Keir Starmer, and Volodymyr Zelensky appeared in a viral “Oval Office” photo looking like schoolboys in trouble — until the phantom foot gave away its AI origins. What happens when fake images shape real perceptions?

L'été a été marqué par une activité diplomatique intense dans le dossier ukrainien. À quelques jours d'intervalle, le président américain Donald Trump a ainsi rencontré son homologue russe Vladimir Poutine puis ukrainien Volodymyr Zelensky, mais les lignes de blocage perdurent et sur le terrain les offensives s'intensifient. Le président ukrainien multiplie les gestes en faveur d'un cessez-le-feu : jusqu'où peut-il aller pour y parvenir ? Doit-il consentir à céder des territoires à la Russie ? Quid de l'avenir de la sécurité dans le pays ?

Imagine leaders of the greatest European nations, along with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, sitting like contrite, obedient schoolchildren in front of Donald Trump, the imperial headmaster. What's the first emotion that comes to mind: sympathy, amusement, pity, schadenfreude, a call to wake up to the new world? Chances are it will be a combination of all of the above, except sympathy. We can see at least one leader's mind has no emotional muddle. Vladimir Putin sees this with pure contempt.

Donald Trump has now met with both Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Vladimir Putin — raising the question: where will Trump stand on the Ukraine war, NATO, and BRICS?

Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall.*Inniu an 23ú lá de mhí Lúnasa. Is mise Niall Ó Cuileagáin.Tharla cruinniú mullaigh idir Uachtarán na Stát Aonaithe Donald Trump agus Uachtarán na Rúise Vladimir Putin in Alasca Dé hAoine an tseachtain seo caite inar phléadar an cogadh san Úcráin agus na roghanna atá ann chun deireadh a chur leis.Cuireadh an cairpéad dearg amach do Putin agus, i ndiaidh an chruinnithe, dúirt Trump nach raibh gá le sos comhraic agus go mbeadh sé ag iarraidh comhaontú síochána a dhéanamh ina ionad san. Spreag an ráiteas san imní i measc ceannairí Eorpacha agus go háirithe san Úcráin, ar eagla go mbeadh orthu talamh sa Donbas a ghéilleadh don Rúis. Chuaigh Uachtarán na hÚcráine Volodymyr Zelensky agus roinnt ceannairí Eorpacha go dtí an Teach Bán Dé Luain chun an plean a phlé le Trump. Dúirt Trump go bhfuil sé ag iarraidh cruinniú mullaigh a shocrú anois idir Zelensky agus Putin ach níl aon rud beartaithe go fóill.Tá fórsaí míleata Iosrael tar éis 60,000 saighdiúir cúltaca a ghairm chun seirbhíse agus iad ag tosnú le hionsaí nua ar Chathair Gaza in ainneoin an cháinte idirnáisiúnta. Maíonn na hIosraelaigh go bhfuil siad ag iarraidh deireadh a chur le Hamas leis an ionsaí so ach tá eagraíochtaí daonnúla ag tabhairt rabhadh go bhfuil ar Phalaistínigh teitheadh ón gcathair agus go bhfuil sé mar sprioc ag na hIosraelaigh an chathair a bhánú. Tá forghabháil Iosrael, agus aon mhéadú sna hionsaithe, mídhleathach de réir an dlí idirnáisiúnta. Cháin Ard-Rúnaí na Náisiún Aontaithe, Antonio Guterres, na forbairtí is déanaí agus d'impigh sé ar Iosrael agus Hamas teacht ar sos comhraic. Mhol sé d'Iosrael na forbairtí lonnaíochta nua sa Bhruach Thiar a stopadh chomh maith. Scoiltfeadh an lonnaíocht mhídhleathach seo an Bruach Thiar ó Iarúsailéim Thoir agus bheadh sé ana-dheacair réiteach dhá stát a fháil dá bharr. Chomh maith leis sin, dhearbhaigh eagraíocht a bhfuil tacaíocht na Náisiún Aontaithe aici go bhfuil gorta ar siúl go hoifigiúil in Gaza anois.Tá an duais liteartha Polari curtha ar ceal tar éis conspóide leis an údar Éireannach John Boyne. Is duais í a cheiliúrann litríocht LADTA an duais Polari ach tharraing sí conspóid nuair a ainmníodh John Boyne dá leabhar Earth. Tá cáil ar Boyne mar gheall ar a leabhar The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas ach spreag sé cáineadh géar le déanaí de bharr a chuid tuairimí faoi dhaoine trasinscneacha. Scríobh Boyne alt san Irish Independent cúpla seachtain ó shin inar thug sé tacaíocht don údar achrannach J.K. Rowling agus a seasamh i gcoinne cearta trasinscneacha. Tharraing go leor údair eile amach as an bhfadliosta mar gheall ar ainmniúchán Boyne, chomh maith le beirt mholtóirí. D'fhógair Polari go gcuirfí an duais ar ceal i mbliana mar gheall ar an gconspóid agus go ndéanfaidís iarracht níos mó moltóirí trasinscneacha a chur ar an bpainéal as so amach. Chuir Boyne ráiteas amach inar sheas sé lena thuairimí agus inar mhaígh sé go bhfuair sé bulaíocht mhillteanach le linn na conspóide.*Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain.

John welcomes Michael McFaul, former U.S. ambassador to Russia, back to the show to discuss the past week's flurry of diplomatic efforts to bring an end to the war in Ukraine. McFaul analyzes the meeting between Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin in Alaska; the subsequent visit of Volodymyr Zelensky and a phalanx of European leaders to the White House; the signals emanating from Russia that Putin's maximalist war aims remain unchanged; and the grim options facing Zelensky if the spate of summitry, as seems increasingly likely, results in nothing more than a return to the status quo ante.

On Tuesday, the Department of Justice announced it's launching a much-needed and super important investigation into Washington D.C.'s crime statistics. The DOJ said it's looking into whether the stats have been QUOTE: "manipulated" to make the crime rate seem lower. Why, might you ask, is the DOJ using time, money, and resources to look into this? Probably because it's searching for a way to justify President Donald Trump's takeover of the Metropolitan Police Department and deployment of National Guard troops to the district. However, it has been roughly two weeks since Trump's takeover, and we have some questions. Is DC's crime problem really that bad? And is it better now after federal intervention? We spoke with journalist Josh Barro. He's also co-host of the podcast "Serious Trouble".And in headlines, the Trump administration decides it doesn't want feedback from its federal employees, the White House says arrangements for a meeting between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Russian President Putin are underway, and Oklahoma is making sure teachers from California and New York aren't "woke".Show Notes:Check out Josh's post – https://tinyurl.com/2rrxxrsfCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

This week, Scott sat down with his colleagues Anna Bower, Chris Mirasola, and Mykhailo Soldatenko to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“Wings and a Prayer.” The Ukraine conflict has been the subject of intense shuttle diplomacy over the past week, as President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin flew to a meeting in Alaska last Friday, only for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and a cadre of European leaders to fly to Washington, DC, to meet with Trump yesterday at the White House. What do we know about their conversations? And could this be a turning point in the conflict?“Capital Offense.” It's been more than a week since President Trump chose to make law enforcement in Washington, DC—a city he has derided as “taken over by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals”—a national priority, by deploying hundreds of National Guard personnel and federal law enforcement officers to the streets and seeking to assert federal control over the police department, in ways that triggered a legal challenge by the city. What is motivating this major policy effort? And where does it seem likely to lead?“The Ep Files: I Want to Believe.” The Trump administration is reportedly installing a new “co-”deputy director at the FBI, in part because of controversy the current incumbent—former right-wing radio host Dan Bongino—has courted relating to the release of the so-called “Epstein Files.” And it's indicative of the major problems that these files—and the potential that they may say something about President Trump's relationship with the notorious sex offender for whom they are named—are causing President Trump and his administration. What's driving this rare point of dissent among the president's core supporters? And what ramifications could it have for our justice system?In object lessons, Anna hyped a new Kelce brothers podcast episode that featured some girl that Travis is dating. Chris recommended a crafty parenting hack: taking your kid to Michael's for some unplugged, creative fun. Scott channeled his inner influencer, telling you where you can find the newest, hippest dog shirts. And Mykhailo brought us back down to Earth with a recommendation of Timothy Snyder's YouTube series, The Making of Modern Ukraine, for a dive into the context and real causes for the Russia-Ukraine conflict.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky recently visited Washington, where he surprised many by wearing a suit instead of his usual military-style clothing while meeting with Donald Trump and Trump reportedly praised the wardrobe change. In this video Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger mock Zelensky as desperate for support amid Ukraine's difficult war situation. They highlight Zelensky's statements to European allies about sanctions, peace talks, and the need for security guarantees, but argue that his demands are unrealistic considering that the war is essentially lost. The segment concludes that Zelensky's political survival may be tied to prolonging the conflict, even as Europe and the U.S. appear divided on how to move forward. Plus segments on MSNBC's desperate rebrand as “MS NOW,” HHS Director Robert F. Kennedy deleting a tweet promoting a new universal vaccine, and millions of Israelis pouring into the streets to protest the ongoing war on Gaza. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Ryan Cristián!

What do we know about their conversations? And could this be a turning point in the conflict?“Capital Offense.” It's been more than a week since President Trump chose to make law enforcement in Washington, DC—a city he has derided as “taken over by violent gangs and bloodthirsty criminals”—a national priority, by deploying hundreds of National Guard personnel and federal law enforcement officers to the streets and seeking to assert federal control over the police department, in ways that triggered a legal challenge by the city. What is motivating this major policy effort? And where does it seem likely to lead?“The Ep Files: I Want to Believe.” The Trump administration is reportedly installing a new “co-”deputy director at the FBI, in part because of controversy the current incumbent—former right-wing radio host Dan Bongino—has courted relating to the release of the so-called “Epstein Files.” And it's indicative of the major problems that these files—and the potential that they may say something about President Trump's relationship with the notorious sex offender for whom they are named—are causing President Trump and his administration. What's driving this rare point of dissent among the president's core supporters? And what ramifications could it have for our justice system?In object lessons, Anna hyped a new Kelce brothers podcast episode that featured some girl that Travis is dating. Chris recommended a crafty parenting hack: taking your kid to Michael's for some unplugged, creative fun. Scott channeled his inner influencer, telling you where you can find the newest, hippest dog shirts. And Mykhailo brought us back down to Earth with a recommendation of Timothy Snyder's YouTube series, The Making of Modern Ukraine, for a dive into the context and real causes for the Russia-Ukraine conflict.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

The guys also debate whether or not Ukraine should be allowed into NATO as part of the peace agreements to end the war. Americans don't want America to be the policeman of the world, and under President Trump, we aren't: We're being the leader of the world. Glenn recalls the time when he was invited to speak with President George W. Bush and what Glenn learned about the presidency and who's actually calling the shots. Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.) joins to discuss how the Left will stop at nothing to win. Glenn and Sen. Schmitt also discuss Trump's recent call to end mail-in voting across the nation. Does the president have that power?

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, WMAL's Larry O'Connor fills in for Mark. Marco Rubio's State Department has reduced the number of student visas by over 6,000 following an executive order issued in January that mandated a review for potential security risks. This visa enforcement is among the most prominent immigration measures keeping education safe from foreign threats and influences. Also, President Trump declared that he will lead a movement aimed at abolishing mail-in voting and electronic voting machines ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, which was very overdue. He announced plans to sign an executive order, and he will succeed in ending the ballot corruption, once and for all. In addition, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said that Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This occurred during a phone call between Putin and President Trump right in the middle of a big meeting at the White House with Trump, Zelensky, and top European leaders. Trump told French President Emmanuel Macron, that he thinks Valdimir Putin wants to make a deal with him. Rutte later confirmed that Putin agreed to a meeting with Zelensky, though no confirmation on details yet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The conversation surrounding artificial intelligence in the US is hard to avoid right now. Powerful companies like Nvidia are making AI chips, doctors are using AI to revolutionize and enhance healthcare, and companies like Waymo have implemented the technology in self-driving cars. But even with all these advances, concerns continue to grow over how children are using AI. Reports about chatbots engaging children in "sensual" conversations have led to amplified concerns. However, others have found that students and teachers alike are using AI to complete schoolwork and create class assignments. For more information about the intersection of AI and America's children, we spoke with Lila Shroff, Assistant Editor at The Atlantic.And in headlines, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy spruces up for his White House visit, President Donald Trump rants about the evil that is mail-in ballots, and MSNBC is changing its name to MS NOW.Show Notes:Check out Lila's work – theatlantic.com/author/lila-shroff/Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

In this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, we break down the high-stakes showdown at the White House as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy faces Donald Trump in the Oval Office for the first time since their infamous clash — and this time, Zelenskyy shows up with Europe by his side. We discuss how European leaders made it abundantly clear they have Zelenskyy's back and weren't afraid to put Trump in his place after his humiliating meeting with Putin. We also dive into California Governor Gavin Newsom expertly trolling Trump on social media and absolutely rattling MAGA with his pitch-perfect mockery of Trump's tweet style. Finally, we examine how Trump continues to wage war on the United States itself, unleashing federal agents in D.C. and sowing chaos in the streets. Ben and Brett break it all down!
