U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi plans to rescind a Biden-era policy that protected journalists from having their phone records seized during leak investigations and being forced to testify about their sources, according to @AssociatedPress. This comes off the back of multiple Trump administration leaks about internal decision-making, intelligence assessments, and the activities of prominent officials.

The White House has some plans to incentivize women to get pregnant — and we're not talking affordable healthcare, paid parental leave or better childcare. Lyz Lenz writes for her newsletter, Men Yell At Me, about incentives such as $5,000 baby bonuses, menstrual cycle charting and Fulbright scholarships. Then there's the fact that Donald Trump is styling himself as the "fertilization president." "Just the phrase 'fertilization president' made millions and millions of embryos in the bodies of women yeet themselves themselves right on out of their respective uteruses," Lenz says.

Jordan Peterson admits on Joe Rogan’s podcast that if Mark Carney wins, Trump will “not have a more seasoned enemy in the West… very well connected to Europe” (i.e. Globalist) and difficult to deal with.

Peterson told Rogan that Trump “will pay” for blowing this election for Poilievre by unifying #Canada with his 51st state Governor attacks. The reality is that fascist #DonaldTrump has soiled elections for all Republicans and Conservatives alike by going full crypto mobster authoritarian.

So if there was still any doubt which party would be tougher on this rogue #trumpadministration, just watch #JordanPeterson shudder at the thought of #MarkCarney.

“Environmentalists have long faced harassment, imprisonment and other forms of retribution in some parts of the world,” writes Sharon Lerner for @ProPublica. “The U.S. has largely been an exception, a place where people and organizations can freely and safely pursue efforts to protect human health and nature — sometimes working hand in hand with the government.” All that’s changed. Lerner spoke to Abigail Dillen, president of Earthjustice, about the escalating hostility environmentalists face, and what she thinks is behind the Trump administration’s targeting of groups who do environmental work.

The modern South Africa rose from what @thecontinent’s Simon Allison describes as “the bitter ashes of history’s most sophisticated white supremacist state.” It’s been largely well-regarded ever since. Now, the Trump administration and adviser, billionaire Elon Musk, are trying to change the narrative, with the latter spreading baseless conspiracy theories about “white genocide” in the country of his birth. What is President Cyril Ramaphosa supposed to do? How can any country respond if a former friend becomes hostile? “South Africa’s ruling party – Africa’s oldest political party – has already defeated one white supremacist state. Can it stand firm against another one?” writes Allison.

Political leaders don’t just need confidence — they need competence, and America’s problem right now is that the system can’t distinguish between the two. @Daojoan writes for her Index newsletter about the need for discernment. We need institutions, parties and leaders that know how to measure actual competence, not just performance,” she writes. “We need politicians who are humble enough to say, ‘I don't know,’ and voters who don't mistake that for weakness. And we need journalists who can tell the difference between a compelling narrative and a grift.”
