#HeadlinesToday News Recap:

1. Ukraine war keeps escalating
2. US abortion battle heats up
3. Fox lied about Trump election claims?
4. Trump's legal woes continue
5. New Long Covid side effects: fear mongering or academic revelations?

Anything I missed?
(a thread)
Ukraine is facing significant artillery supply issues and has appealed to the EU for more supplies to ease critical shortages.

This is well above what the EU agreed to send.

Will ammo issues result in the end of the war or even a Russia victory?
CNN reports that the attack on the Bryansk region was carried out by Neo Nazis from the Ukrainian Army.

Is this a rogue battalion or is it systemic of Ukrainian ideology, as claimed by the Russians?
Nord Stream...

Was it Russia, was it the USA, were Nato allies made aware?

A new report states that Russia plans to repair the Nord stream but has no plans to make it operational.

German support for Ukraine is unwavering.
Putin signed a decree that if an “industrial enterprises disrupt the fulfillment of the state defense order under martial law, they will be subject to such a measure as external control.”

Martial Law? Dictatorship? Or ordinary war time measures?
Ukrainian forces have begun their withdrawal from Bakhmut.

Sources say that within 2 days there will be a complete takeover of Bakhmut by Russian forces.

Wagner forces have been confirmed to be crossing the Bakhmut river.

Russia winning the war?
The US has announced today the transfer of $400 Million in Military Aid to Ukraine.

What will be sent is armored vehicles, ammunition and explosives.

Long war ahead?
White House condemns push to block abortion pills

Walgreen announced it would no longer sell abortion pills by mail

Should everyone have the right to abortion pills or should this be controlled at the State or Federal level?
Rupert Murdoch admits that Fox endorsed the false notion of stolen election.

Is this a Trump ally who has now disavowed his stolen election claims?

Dominion Voting Systems have filed a $1.6 billion defamation lawsuit against Fox News.
Former President Donald Trump has sought a delay in the New York fraud case.

Trump wants to extend the deadline in order to review the extensive amount of documents filed in the case.

Is this fair or is this a delay tactic?
Long Covid side effects: the revelations continue

Recent study seems to provide insight into long covid which impacts the brain and health risks.

Has this got academic basis or this another form of scaremongering?

🇺🇸 TRUMP’S FIRST 100 DAYS: WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

Trump didn’t tiptoe back into the White House - he came in swinging.

In just 100 days, he’s rewritten border policy, shredded DEI programs, ignited a new round of trade wars, and slashed thousands of government jobs.

Whether you’re cheering or cringing, here’s everything that’s happened - fast and unfiltered 👇🧵Image
1. BORDER SECURITY: WALLS UP, CHAOS DOWN

Remember when the border was basically a revolving door? Not anymore.

Illegal crossings and releases? Down a mind-melting 95%.

Even Fox News said they couldn’t find a single migrant to film-awkward!

“Catch and release” is toast.

Now, if you cross illegally, you’re not just “caught”-you’re staying put until a judge says otherwise.

Border wall construction is back, and “gotaways” (the ones who used to slip through) are down 99%.

The only thing getting through these days is tumbleweed.

2. EXECUTIVE ORDERS: THE PEN IS MIGHTIER THAN… EVERYTHING

Trump signed 139 executive orders in 100 days.

That’s more than Franklin Roosevelt, and he had the Great Depression to deal with.

Immigration? Check. DEI? Gone.

Regulations? Axed.

Federal government? Slimmed down like it’s on Ozempic.

Congress is basically sprinting to keep up.

Technology is moving so fast, it's hard to tell what's real anymore.

These 10 mind-blowing tech inventions are pushing the limits of what we thought was possible: 👇 Image
1. A paralyzed man is now able to "speak" in his own voice, thanks to Elon's Neuralink brain chip.

Bradford Smith, who has ALS—a disease that left only his brain and eyes working—got a Neuralink implant in January. Now, he can talk with his family more normally.

He types using just his thoughts on a virtual keyboard. Then Grok AI helps complete his sentences and turns the text into speech that sounds like his real voice, recreated from old audio clips.

Bradford shared his experience and a look at the interface on Twitter, expressing how happy he is with the result.
2. Scientists in South Korea have created a liquid robot that can move through metal grates.

This flexible robot can change its shape to squeeze through tight spaces, opening up new possibilities for rescue missions, surveillance, and medical use.

This week in AI was Insane

OpenAI, Grok, Google, Nvidia, Claude, Amazon — all dropped massive updates.

Here’s the rapid-fire roundup you don’t want to miss: 👇Image
1. OpenAI has released GPT-Image-1 to developers through its API, allowing third-party apps to use ChatGPT’s popular image generation feature.

This model, which handles both text and images, powers the image creation tool that launched in ChatGPT in late March.

In its first week, users made over 700 million images with it.Image
2. xAI introduces Grok Studio with long-term memory

Grok Studio comes with a split-screen setup where you can create documents, apps, or games.

🧵🇺🇸 ELON’S DOGE IS HUNGRY FOR BUREAUCRACY — AND WASHINGTON’S FEELING THE BITE

@DOGE, Elon’s latest mission to fix what’s broken in D.C., just dropped a week of bold, flashy moves.

Less bloated bureaucracy, more sharp scissors.

Here’s what they pulled off this week — whether you love it, hate it, or just want to understand what the heck’s going on: 🧵👇Image
1. THE CREDIT CARD CRACKDOWN

Ever wonder how many credit cards the government has?

Try 4.6 million. And nearly 50,000 of them were just sitting there, unused.

DOGE shut down 48,000 P-cards (Government Purchasing Cards) this week — part of a $30 billion chunk of spending.

They say it’s a push to streamline the $40B annual spend machine.Image
2. NIH GRANTS GET THE AXE

DOGE told the NIH to cancel 7 grants — including $532K for testosterone tests on mice and $33K for rat-based hormone therapy studies.

Earlier cuts included $699K on cannabis research in LGBTQ+ communities and $620K on teen pregnancy studies.

The message is clear, and good to hear: no more government cash for niche science experiments.Image

Google just made your dream dev assistant real.

They recently released Firebase Studio — an AI tool that can build and ship entire applications from a simple idea.

This isn’t just a code generator…
It’s a full-stack app builder powered by AI.

Here’s what you need to know: 🧵 Image
1. Firebase Studio is a new cloud-based development platform made for building AI-powered apps. It brings everything you need into one place — from writing and testing your code to deploying and running apps in production.

It’s designed to save you time, reduce complexity, and help you create high-quality AI applications faster than ever. Whether you're just starting or scaling up, Firebase Studio makes the entire process smoother with built-in tools and automation.Image
2. Quickly Build AI Apps with Firebase Studio

Firebase Studio makes it easy to start building AI apps using simple prompts, images, or even sketches. Just use the App Prototyping agent to create working web app prototypes (starting with Next.js) in seconds.

When you click “Prototype this app,” it instantly creates a functional Next.js web app — not just the UI, but also the backend setup.

It also connects everything with Genkit and gives you a Gemini API key, so your AI features work right away without any extra setup.Image

🔍 Google
🧠 Claude
📱 Meta
…and more.

Here’s everything you need to know 👇 Image
1. OpenAI is giving college students in the US and Canada free access to ChatGPT Plus until the end of May.

2. Google introduces CURIE, a new benchmark to test how well AI can handle scientific tasks.

CURIE stands for long-Context Understanding, Reasoning, and Information Extraction. It's designed to evaluate how large language models (LLMs) can solve complex scientific problems and support researchers in real-world scientific work.Image
