Mediaite: Democratic Senator Warns Trump Putting Country Under ‘Quasi-Martial Law’ After ‘Chilling’ Cloak-And-Dagger Arrest
The video is really chilling. And this should matter to every single American. Okay, first of all the president doesn’t need the Alien Enemies Act in order to remove from this country. People who pose a threat to the nation, people who have engaged in criminal behavior or who have coordinated with terrorist groups, he has that power under existing law to remove from the country non-citizens. So he doesn’t need this authority.
What he is trying to do is put America on a war footing. This is an act that has only been exercised three times in American history. During the war of 1812, during the First World War, and during the Second World War. It is a wartime authority, and what you really worry about is the president continuing to move forward in exercising wartime powers in order to suspend additional elements of the constitution.
He, of course, has shown affection for something called the Insurrection Act, which would put the military in charge of everyday law enforcement in this country.
You are watching along multiple channels this massive slide away from democracy and democratic norms. And so that video is chilling because a the president doesn’t need that act to be able to remove a threat, but it speaks to his willingness to try to put America in a kind of quasi-martial law that ultimately will come to be a threat, not just to green card holders, but to American citizens as well.
So it’s a really worrying time and everybody in America should care what’s happening.

The Hill: GOP lawmakers turn up the pressure on Hegseth
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth is under close scrutiny as Republican lawmakers criticize his handling of sensitive military information in a group chat with other administration officials that inadvertently included a journalist.
Republican lawmakers have stopped short of calling on Hegseth to resign, but they’re warning that his decision to share sensitive details about a pending military strike against Houthi rebels in Yemen over Signal, a commercial app, is a clear “strike” against him.
…
And they’re wondering about Hegseth’s response to reporters’ questions, specifically his adamant denial that “nobody’s texting war plans” after a National Security Council spokesperson had confirmed the chat group’s reported texts appeared to be “authentic.”
“The worst part of it is Hegseth saying himself, ‘This didn’t really happen.’ Why don’t you just admit it?” one Republican senator remarked.
…
And while White House press secretary [Bimbo #1] Karoline Leavitt on Wednesday sought to draw a distinction between “war plans” and “attack plans” in criticizing The Atlantic’s reporting …
Associated Press: Turkish student at Tufts University detained, video shows masked people handcuffing her
A Turkish national and doctoral student at Tufts University has been detained by U.S. Department of Homeland Security agents without explanation, her lawyer said Wednesday.
Rumeysa Ozturk, 30, had just left her home in Somerville on Tuesday night when she was stopped, lawyer Mahsa Khanbabai said in a petition filed in Boston federal court.
Video obtained by The Associated Press appears to show six people, their faces covered, taking away Ozturk’s phone as she yells and is handcuffed.
“We’re the police,” members of the group are heard saying in the video.
A man is heard asking, “Why are you hiding your faces?”
…
‘This isn’t public safety, it’s intimidation’
…
“It looked like a kidnapping,” said Michael Mathis, a 32-year-old software engineer whose surveillance camera captured the arrest. “They approach her and start grabbing her with their faces covered. They’re covering their faces. They’re in unmarked vehicles.”
And as usual the DHS dirtbags are ignoring the court’s binding orders:
U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani issued an order giving the government until Friday to answer why Ozturk was being detained. Talwani also ordered that Ozturk not be moved outside the District of Massachusetts without 48 hours advance notice.
But as of Wednesday evening, the U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement’s online detainee locator system listed her as being held at the South Louisiana ICE Processing Center in Basile, Louisiana.

Mediaite: Andrew Tate Accused of Choking Woman Two Weeks After Trump Administration Reportedly Helped Him Return to the U.S.
Andrew Tate, who returned to the U.S. last month while under indictment on sex trafficking charges in Romania, has been accused by his girlfriend and choking and beating her.
According to a report published by TMZ on Wednesday, Tate’s girlfriend Bri Stern said Tate attacked her during sex on March 11 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. TMZ outlet stated:
She’s told police Tate began choking her while they were having sex, but it got too rough, and although she begged him to stop, he kept going. Bri says the more she struggled, the more violent he got … and she felt everything getting fuzzy, like she was fading into unconsciousness.
Bri says the violence only stopped when Tate was done having sex, and once he fell asleep … she went to the bathroom to document her injuries. TMZ has obtained pics showing bruising on her face. Bri says she went to an emergency room in NYC — where she’d flown for work — a couple days later, and documents show she was diagnosed as “post-concussive.”
Meanwhile, back in Trumptown:
Back in January, former Trump adviser and current Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey Alina Habba (Trump’s Bimbo #4) gushed over Tate on a podcast.
“Nice to meet you! I’m a big fan!” she said.
Perhaps Bimbo #4 Alina Habba would also enjoy being beaten and choked?

Newsweek: Canada has barred Tesla vehicles from being eligible for the country’s electric vehicle rebate
In a statement released on Tuesday, Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland said that Tesla would be banned from all of Canada’s electric vehicle rebate programs and that any outstanding payments to Tesla owners would be paused.
Freeland said the policy was going into effect due to the tariffs the United States placed on Canada, which she described as “illegitimate and illegal.”
Newsweek: Social Security Close to ‘Total System Collapse’
The former Social Security commissioner Martin O’Malley has said the government department is on the brink of “total system collapse” under the Trump administration.
The Social Security Administration (SSA) currently pays out retirement, survivor and disability benefits to more than 70 million Americans. But recent changes made by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its current commissioner have come under considerable scrutiny.
Writing on X, formerly Twitter, O’Malley said: “The Musk/Trump co-presidency has already taken 90% of the actions necessary to drive Social Security into a total system collapse.”
