Quick Glance: Trump Mixes Up Jimmy Kimmel and Al Pacino in Rant
- Former President Donald Trump recently mixed up Jimmy Kimmel and actor Al Pacino in a bizarre rant on social media about Kimmel's hosting of the 2024 Academy Awards.
- Trump claims Kimmel experienced a 'classic blackout' at the Oscars and forgot to say the famous mandatory line 'AND THE WINNER IS.'
- Kimmel responded to Trump's mix-up with a humorous comment, referencing Trump's self-proclaimed status as a 'very stable genius' in 2018.
- Trump's rant about Kimmel seems to be in response to his monologue on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' discussing Trump's declining wealth and hush money trial.

Quick Glance: GOP Congresswoman Propagates Russian Narratives Against Ukraine Aid
- Republican Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene introduced amendments to the latest bill on aid to Ukraine, echoing Russian propaganda narratives about "biolabs in Ukraine" and "persecution of Christians in Ukraine."
- Greene proposed halting funding for Ukraine's aid until free and fair elections are held, persecution of Christians stops, and all biolabs in Ukraine are closed.
- The allegation of secret "biolabs" in Ukraine is a long-standing Russian propaganda conspiracy theory, also picked up by Chinese disinformation networks according to the EU East Stratcom Task Force.
- House Speaker Mike Johnson announced determination to advance the foreign aid bill on April 20, despite opposition from GOP hardliners who have blocked progress for over six months.

Quick Glance: Senate's Decision on Impeachment Charges Against Mayorkas
- The Senate rejected the impeachment charges against Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, halting the House Republicans' effort to impeach the Cabinet secretary over his management of the US-Mexico border.
- With Democrats contending that the articles were unconstitutional, senators voted to dismiss both impeachment charges and conclude the trial.
- Senate Republicans had called for a full impeachment trial after the House narrowly voted in February to impeach Mayorkas for his border actions.
- Republicans argued that President Joe Biden was ineffective at the border, while Democrats suggested accepting a bipartisan Senate compromise instead of impeaching Mayorkas to reduce illegal immigrants.

Quick Glance: Trump campaign seeks share of candidates' donations
- The Trump campaign asks Republican candidates using his name and image in fundraising appeals to give at least 5 percent of the proceeds to the campaign.
- The purpose of the 5 percent request is to prevent 'scammers' from misusing Trump's brand and affecting his fundraising efforts.
- Trump is struggling to catch up to Biden's fundraising and aims to boost his campaign account with the help of donors.
- The campaign warns of consequences for vendors and requests compliance with guidelines to avoid suspension of business relationships.

Quick Glance: UK Reacts to ICIJ Report on London Property of Putin Ally
- The UK government froze the multimillion-dollar London property roughly a week after the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists unveiled its connection to Igor Komarov and its seemingly untouched status by sanctions against the high-ranking Kremlin official.
- In February, the ongoing relationship between Komarov and the prime central London townhouse on Herbert Crescent, purchased for over $16.5 million through a British Virgin Islands-based shell company he previously managed, was highlighted.
- An update was made on April 5 regarding the Companies House records for Wastom, aligning with the ROE filings.

Quick Glance: Arizona Republicans foil another effort to repeal 1864 abortion ban
- Arizona House Republicans once again thwarted an attempt on Wednesday to repeal the state's nearly complete abortion ban from 1864, leaving Democrats without a vote on their repeal bill for the second consecutive week.
- Despite facing pressure from influential conservatives, such as former President Trump and Senate hopeful Kari Lake, urging GOP leaders to lift the ban, the Republicans blocked the repeal.
- State House Democrats made a procedural maneuver to attempt to suspend House rules and bring the repeal bill to the floor for discussion. However, this action was rejected by the GOP majority, with only one Republican, Representative Matt Gress, crossing party lines to support bringing up the repeal bill.
- A similar endeavor to repeal the ban was obstructed by Republicans last week. Following persistent criticism of the law by Democrats both within and outside the state throughout the week, prominent figures like Trump and Lake recognized the political risks and advocated for a change in direction within the Legislature.
