US funding Ukraine, Taiwan, and Israel?! Democrat Senate reject Mayorkas impeachment // Anti-aborsh law in AZ stays so far! //
*Evil House and WORSE Senate
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Who’s ready to take it to the floor…House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). Yesterday, he unveiled three foreign aid bills, setting up a showdown with far-right Republicans. The measures, which total $95 billion, include assistance for Israel, Ukraine, and Taiwan. Some far-right Republicans strongly oppose more aid to Ukraine, with at least two GOP members threatening to oust Johnson over it. In addition to the foreign aid bills, Johnson also plans to bring a vote on a border security measure in what appears to be an effort to appease GOP hardliners. The House could vote on the bills as soon as Saturday.
…Oh and speaking of the Hill, the Democratic-led Senate dismissed two impeachment articles against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. The move pulls the plug on House Republicans’ efforts to remove him over his handling of the southern border crisis.
**Aborsh in AZ and America
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) The Republican-controlled Arizona House of Representatives once again failed to advance a repeal of the state’s 160-year-old abortion ban. The vote on Wednesday came just days after Arizona lawmakers revived a “controversial” (meaning reasonable and correct) “Civil War-era” law that almost completely halts “access” (commie buzzword) to the procedure in the State.
The BASED vote is a blow to reproductive rights (NO IT’S NOT! FAKE NEWS!) as well as to GOP candidates in competitive races who have been scrambling to distance themselves from the AZ court’s decision.
Across the US, Democrats are hoping that FEMALE voter frustration over “draconian” abortion laws (meant to protect the unborn from selfish killing) advanced by Republicans will help them win elections up and down the ticket in November.

**Female victimhood: Gymnastics
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) What’s paying up… The Justice Department. Yesterday, news outlets reported that the DOJ has agreed to pay approximately $100 million to the victims of former USA Gymnastics doctor Larry Nassar. The payout, which is not yet finalized, is for the FBI’s failure to look into the athletes’ claims of abuse against the doctor. Simone Biles, along with other USA Gymnastics national team members and dozens of his patients, sued the FBI in 2022 for not properly investigating allegations against Nassar.
*University “anti-Semitism”
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) QUOTE: “There is, to be sure, much more work to do.” — Columbia University President Nemat Shafik (aka Minouche Shafik - Wikipedia [also in the IMF]), acknowledging there are more steps the Ivy League school must take to fight antisemitism and support academic freedom. Shafik was grilled with questions at a congressional hearing on Wednesday for not protecting students from antisemitism, Islamophobia and anti-Arab harassment.
They don’t make Fords like they used to!
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Ford is recalling more than 450,000 vehicles because they might lose drive power resulting from a battery issue. In January, the automaker also recalled more than 100,000 F-150 pickup trucks for an axle issue that could increase the risk of a crash.
They don’t make Boeings like they used to!
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Boeing’s battered reputation took another hit at two Senate committee hearings Wednesday, with witnesses questioning how the company builds its airplanes and the safety of those planes. A former Boeing engineer said he’s been threatened for bringing safety concerns to his managers over several years, but that he was testifying due to his belief that “they are putting out defective airplanes.” Boeing did not have any witnesses at the hearings Wednesday, but defended its company standards earlier this week, saying that the 787 fleet has safely transported more than 850 million passengers in the last 13 years of service.
**911 a joke in your town!
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Law enforcement agencies in at least four states reported 911 service interruptions on Wednesday evening. Authorities in South Dakota, Texas, Nebraska and Nevada announced outages in multiple cities, but details about what was causing them weren’t immediately available. Service has been restored in some areas, though it remains unclear how the restoration came about. In Las Vegas, 911 calls from landlines were also impacted for a short period and residents were told they could text 911 instead for life-threatening emergencies. All who called during the outage have been called back and provided assistance, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department said.

*Donald Trump’s media company is launching a streaming platform
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Trump Media is going through wild swings in the stock market. Here’s what you can expect from the company’s streaming initiative. (CNN: Trump’s stock tumbles again after Truth Social announces it’s getting into streaming)
The company’s premier product, Truth Social, announced a major expansion into streaming, a notoriously cost-intensive business in which media behemoths like Disney have struggled to turn a profit. (OHHH I THOUGHT THEY MEANT LIVE STREAMING BY USERS / CHANNELS…?? OHH IT IS… )
(Global Newswire) Truth Social to Launch Streaming Platform The streaming content is expected to focus on live TV including news networks, religious channels, family-friendly content including films and documentaries; and other content that has been cancelled, is at risk of cancellation, or is being suppressed on other platforms and services.
CNN shares quote: “With our streaming content, we aim to provide a permanent home for high-quality news and entertainment that face discrimination by other channels and content delivery services,” said TMTG CEO Devin Nunes, a former Republican congressman for California in a statement. “There is a lot of great content that simply can’t find an audience for unjust reasons, and we want to let these creators know they’ll soon have a guaranteed platform where they won’t be cancelled (sic).”
**Caitlin Clark’s salary draws attention to gender pay gap in sports
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Caitlin Clark, the first pick in the WNBA draft this week, will be paid just under $77,000 this year. The top NBA pick will make $10.5 million. Read why the gender pay gap in professional sports is far from closed. (LORD HAVE MERCY — CNN NEEDS DON LEMON BACK!)

(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) $6B in damage from the catastrophic Maui wildfires last year.

Volcano eruption: Indonesia
(CNN or theSkimm Thu 4-18-24) Indonesia has issued a tsunami alert following multiple eruptions of a remote island volcano. Mount Ruang, a large volcano on Ruang Island, has erupted at least five times since Tuesday night, spewing fiery lava thousands of feet into the sky, the country’s volcanology agency said. Local officials fear it could partially collapse into the sea and trigger a tsunami, as it did in 1871. Dramatic footage of the eruptions showed plumes of gray ash billowing into the sky and streams of glowing lava, accompanied by lightning strikes. Around 800 residents in Ruang Island have temporarily relocated and no casualties have been reported, authorities said.
