#EdDavey, Ldr of the #UK’s Liberal Democrats:
“#JDVance & his mates clearly aren't fit to run a group chat, let alone the world's strongest #military force. It has to make our #security services nervous about the #intelligence we're sharing with them.”
“#Trump's #WhiteHouse can't be trusted. Their reckless approach to security means it's only a matter of time before British intelligence is leaked.
“The Govt must urgently review our intelligence-sharing arrangements with the US.”
The #Senate Select Cmte on #Intelligence hearing is a regular briefing intelligence ofcls provide #Congress on worldwide threats & was scheduled before #JeffGoldberg’s report from The Atlantic.
But the controversy is likely to dominate the session.

Acc/to another informed source of #AFP, "hate & conspiracy messages" were blamed on the French researcher by #US authorities. An #FBI investigation into him was announced, for which "the charges have been abandoned," continues this source.
…This incident comes as… #Trump has increased his shocking announcements targeting the #scientific community (brutal #BudgetCuts, #censorship of certain subjects in subsidized research...).

#LeMonde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to #US after a #search of his #phone & #computer revealed messages critical of #Trump's #science cuts, "which [says #CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism". Computer confiscated.

White House aides prep new #tariffs on imports worth trillions for April 2, laying the groundwork for an escalation in global economic hostilities that #Trump has called “Liberation Day.”
The admin has already unnerved investors with duties on #Canada, #Mexico & #China, & yet, advisers are readying a move to dwarf all previous tariffs.

#Palestine Action posted photographs on social media showing red paint daubed across one of the buildings at the Ayrshire course.
The words "#Gaza is not for sale" are sprayed across one green & another green appears to have been dug up.

Written 90 years ago in 1935, the words of #Hemingway in his “Notes on the Next War” should resonate with every thoughtful reader.
I’m content that we can post here, as is our right to do so, no one should get bonus points for just doing the right thing & allowing truthspeakers the right to speak. MASTODON needs to step up & lead the way.

“The #PanamaCanal is not in the process of being restored, & this is certainly not the task that was even discussed in our conversations with Secretary #Rubio or anyone else," #Mulino said.
Asked about Mulino's comments Wednesday, WH Press Sec Karoline Leavitt said during a press conference, "I'm not sure if #Panama has seen what's going on with their own canal."

#Trump’s comments were regarding #BlackRock's agreement to acquire 2 ports serving the #PanamaCanal from a Chinese group, CK Hutchinson, as part of a larger $22.8B deal.
#Mulino on Wednesday rejected the notion that the deal came about because of pressure from the #US & he accused Trump of "lying again."
"I reject in the name of #Panama & all Panamanians this new affront to the truth & our dignity as a nation," he said in a post….
The #Trump White House on Wed doubled down on taking credit for the #BlackRock deal to place 2 #PanamaCanal ports under #US control.
#Panama Pres José Raúl #Mulino on Wed accused Trump of lying about his claim a day earlier that the US is "reclaiming" the Panama Canal.
"My administration will be reclaiming the Panama Canal, & we've already started doing it," Trump said during his address to #Congress on Tues.

This is insane. President of #Russia, Dmitry #Medvedev, just posted on social media:
“The insolent pig finally got a proper slap down in the Oval Office. And (tags #Trump’s account) is right: The Kiev regime is 'gambling with WWIII.'”
Total alignment between Russia & the UnitedStates. Trump acting as #Putin’s thug.
Plus, an explicit threat of a Russian instigated #GlobalWar.

Zelensky tries meanwhile to get more concessions from the US. The "deal" also complicates the talks between Russia and the USA. Which is a good for Ukraine
