The State Department said ​it takes "full responsibility" for "hastily" altering and then presenting a map of Africa at a global AIDS conference that mislabeled every single country it highlighted.

An analysis by Reuters found a watermark in the map image that suggests it was made with OpenAI.

It's been four years since the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision opened the door to state abortion bans.

Now, a new study finds those bans are hurting women who aren't seeking abortions at all. Researchers found delays in miscarriage treatment increase the risk to a woman’s health and fertility and prolong the grief of a lost pregnancy.

@SarahVarney4 has more.

Chicago teen shares his experience in ICE detention centers:

I am 18 years old and I just graduated from high school in Chicago. I was in ICE detention for 2 months and 10 days. On March 17, my mother and I were at our ICE check-in appointment. My mother and I were separated for 2 months. They kept me in solitary for 2 days for no reason, alone in a room with just a toilet. At some places we were strip searched. We ate horrible food and it made us sick. They never let us go outside.

If SCOTUS caves to Trump and guts mail-in voting months before the midterms, it will throw our elections into chaos.

That’s exactly what MAGA wants. The more Americans vote, the harder it is for Trump to cling to power.

Show up. Vote. We can’t let them win.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The SAVE Act is blatant voter suppression.

It makes voting harder for:
- Americans without passports
- Married women who changed their last names
- Military members and Americans overseas
- People with disabilities
- Seniors

Donald Trump is begging the Senate to pass it so he can suppress YOUR vote.

Don't let him rig our elections. Show up this November.

With 99 days until the election, Trump is desperate to make it harder for you to vote and easier for him to cheat.

Trump is on the verge of changing nuclear safety regulations so that the government no longer tries to keep human exposure to radiation as low as possible.

For over 50 years the standard has been keeping radiation exposure "as low as reasonably achievable."

Now under Trump the top nuclear regulator in the U.S. is preparing to scrap this decades-old safety rule.

Donald Trump has earned more money in his first and second year, in his second term as president, than in the previous 60 years of his life, per Bloomberg.

NEW EPISODE: Earlier this year, Texas quietly admitted to the federal government that non-citizens had been mistakenly registered to vote there due to clerical errors, the same kind of mistake now fueling the GOP's fake outrage over New Jersey. https://t.co/sMriANX159

I thought this was a fake quote but, nope, he actually said it.

This is the most embarrassing person to ever lead any country anywhere in the world in our lifetimes.

BREAKING NYT:

Federal officials said in court documents that they halted billions of dollars in funding for energy projects to states "based solely" on whether they backed Trump in the 2024 election.

Trump: "We made a purchase of 10% of Intel. We got it for the right price. And we made approximately $72 billion on that deal. So it was good. Do I get credit for that one? No. I get no credit!"

(Tell me more about how Democrats are communists ... )

James Talarico: “You may not be interested in politics, but politics is interested in you. Your boss at work, he cares about politics. Your landlord, he cares about politics. Your insurance company cares about politics. Until you care about politics, they’re gonna keep using the political system to screw you over”

GALLEGO: Would you say as a former auditor you pride yourself on catching waste?

DENNIS: Yes

GALLEGO: Let's do a test. Would you say $600m on a ballroom, half paid by taxpayers, is a good fiscal decision?

DENNIS: Oh, I'm not going to get involved in what the White House is doing

GALLEGO: As HUD CFO, this is literally the job

[Acyn @Acyn]

Reporter: Isn’t there concern that this slippery slope to socialism inevitably ends up as full-blown communism?

AOC: I mean, no. I think that’s very silly. We can’t even raise the minimum wage. Do they really think communism is going to happen? No. They’re trying to scare people because they don’t want us talking about the fact that we all have a right to health care.

So they want to call everything they don’t like communist because if people actually wake up to the fact that their elected officials are screwing them over when they get here, they’re going to realize they deserve better and that health care as a right isn’t crazy. They want to call this stuff communist because they don’t want us to realize that the rest of the developed world has guaranteed health care. They want to call it communist because they don’t want you to know that Germany, Italy, the UK, Canada—everybody else—has it better than us, and we spend the most money for the worst care in the developed world.

WARREN: Do you still work for Capital One today?

BRIAN JOHNSON: I do. I'm here today in my personal capacity

WARREN: Ok. But they're paying you to get confirmed for this job. I also understand they're letting you keep a bonus you haven't yet earned when you leave. They must be really excited about getting you confirmed.

Trump's financial disclosures ran 927 pages this year. Obama's ran 8. Biden's ran 11. Bush's ran 15.

Buried inside: millions of dollars the President made trading stocks he later touted or rewarded with government contracts.

[Quiver Quantitative @QuiverQuant]

UPDATE: President Trump filed a March 23rd purchase of up to $5,000,000 of Dell stock, $DELL

He then promoted the company from the oval office.

It has now risen 253% since the trade.

Up another 10% today.
