In a rare display of bipartisan cooperation and a rebuke to the administration’s approach toward Ukraine, the US House of Representatives approved a sweeping Ukraine aid and Russia sanctions package, with 18 Republicans joining Democrats to pass legislation that Republican leadership had sought to keep off the floor.

The Ukraine Support Act passed 226-195 after supporters overcame months of resistance through a discharge petition — one of the most difficult procedural mechanisms available in Congress.

The vote marks the first comprehensive Ukraine-support legislation to pass the House during the 119th Congress and underscores growing unease among some Republicans over the administration’s handling of Russia’s war against Ukraine.

Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barret was swatted, according to a report by the Fairfax County Police in Virgina. Police say they responded to a call around 9pm on Wednesday May 27. Fortunately for Barrett, the protocol in this situation for local police is to contact the security assigned to protect Barrett. They quickly affirmed the call was a hoax.

The caller claimed they heard “two or three gunshots” outside Barret’s home, along with people yelling outside. As for who was behind the swatting, no leads were given. The list of suspects is long, however, as Barrett has proven to be a disappointment to conservatives, and the progressives have always opposed her.

Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett’s Virginia home was targeted Wednesday night in what authorities believe was an apparent “swatting” incident, the latest in a growing series of threats and hoaxes aimed at high-profile public officials.

According to Fairfax County Police, officers responded shortly after 9 p.m. after receiving a report of possible gunshots and an argument taking place at Barrett’s residence. Dispatch audio obtained by multiple outlets indicated the caller claimed to hear “two or three gunshots” along with people yelling outside the home.

But when local police coordinated with Supreme Court Police officers assigned to protect Barrett’s residence, they quickly determined the report was false.

“Officers immediately coordinated with Supreme Court Police personnel assigned to the residence and quickly determined that the report was fictitious,” a Fairfax County Police spokesperson said.

Authorities confirmed that no additional emergency resources were deployed once the call was determined to be a hoax. Barrett and her family were reportedly unharmed, and the justice appeared on the Supreme Court bench Thursday morning as scheduled, making no public mention of the incident.

Two major AI security flaws have been revealed; corporations aren’t building safeguards into their AIs and there is a security vulnerability in the code itself.

  • A survey of 1,200 top-level executives has revealed that over 1/3 of organizations deploying AI have no deactivation plan should they go rogue.
  • A security code vulnerability has been revealed in the open-source framework Starlette that allows hackers to take over servers and capture sensitive data from the servers.

A massive survey of 1,200 C-suite executives has revealed a governance gap so wide you could fly a fleet of malfunctioning drones through it. According to the latest JumpCloud research, while nearly every major enterprise has deployed AI agents into critical workflows, over a third of these organizations have no way to immediately deactivate them if they go rogue.

Let that sink in. We are handing the keys to the kingdom to autonomous software entities that can move at machine speed, yet we forgot to install a brake pedal. It’s the digital equivalent of building a self-driving car where the only way to stop it is to wait for it to hit a brick wall. This isn’t just a “glitch”; it is a systemic failure of leadership that treats AI like a magic wand rather than the high-yield explosive it actually is….

A recent MIT report highlights a staggering 95 percent failure rate for generative AI pilots at the enterprise level. When you deploy technology before you understand its logic—or lack thereof—failure isn’t just a possibility; it’s a mathematical certainty. In the rush to look “AI-forward,” companies are bypassing the boring but essential steps of E.E.A.T. (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness).

Millions of AI agents imperiled by critical vulnerability in open source package arstechnica.com

Millions of AI agents and tools around the world have been imperiled by a critical vulnerability that can allow hackers to breach the servers running them and make off with sensitive data and credentials to third-party accounts, a security researcher is warning.

The vulnerability is present in Starlette, an open source framework that its developer says receives 325 million downloads per week. Thousands of other open source projects are also vulnerable because they require Starlette to work. The framework is an implementation of the ASGI (asynchronous server gateway interface), which allows large numbers of requests to be efficiently processed simultaneously. Starlette is the base of FastAPI and other widely used frameworks for building services in Python apps, as well as many others….

“A single character injected into the HTTP Host header bypasses path-based authorization in Starlette, the routing core of FastAPI,” researchers from Secwest wrote. “Through FastAPI, this primitive (now tracked as CVE-2026-48710 and branded BadHost by the discoverers) reaches a large segment of the Python AI tooling ecosystem: vLLM (where the bug was discovered), LiteLLM, Text Generation Inference, most OpenAI-shim proxies, MCP servers, agent harnesses, eval dashboards, and model-management UIs.”

BadHost carries a severity rating of 7 out of 10. Secwest said the classification “materially understates” the threat it poses to people using other apps that depend on Starlette. X41 D-Sec, the security firm that discovered it, described it as having “critical severity.” X41 D-Sec partnered with fellow security firm Nemesis to create an online scanner that can check if a given server is vulnerable.

Three men were killed by two teen shooters in an apparent anti-Islamist attack on a mosque in San Diego. One gunman later killed the other gunman before killing himself. A suicide note confirms the anti-Islamist motivation behind the attacks, according to the police.

The suspects have ties to actual Nazi and Neo-Nazi communities. They also support triggering a complete race war. No political party can claim them, as they expressed hatred of the whole political system. They were also extremely antisemitic, with supporting the eradication of the state of Israel.

The mass shooting at a San Diego mosque and educational center is undoubtedly a severe crime. While we condemn murder, we must also, in all honesty, admit that the mosque in question is a hotspot of pro-terrorist and pro-Nazi sentiment.

Many outlets and journalists have noted that two of the 9/11 terrorists attended the Islamic Center of San Diego, so it has been a magnet for jihadis for decades. And much more recently, one of the shooting’s victims celebrated Adolf Hitler’s “Final Solution” for the Jews. The mosque also held an event to honor the terrorists who died after participating in the Oct. 7 atrocities in Israel, and the imam received an award from an organization (CAIR) that is a designated terrorist entity in multiple states.

Eileen Wang, the former mayor of Arcadia, California, has admitted in a federal plea agreement to working on behalf of the Chinese government as part of a propaganda operation targeting audiences in the United States.

The plea agreement, unsealed Monday, states that Wang acknowledged cooperating with the People’s Republic of China between 2020 and 2022 through a website known as “US News Center,” which presented itself as a news outlet serving Chinese Americans.

According to court documents, Wang worked alongside her former fiancé, Yaoning “Mike” Sun, to publish content directed by Chinese government officials. Prosecutors said the pair posted articles designed to promote Chinese government narratives and then reported engagement metrics back to their handlers, including screenshots showing readership numbers.

 

Progressives in Virginia are already strategizing how to overcome their state’s Supreme Court ruling that struck down their new redistricting map. The map would have given the progressives 4 more U.S. House seats.

Now, they are looking to force retirement by lowering the retirement age of the court so they can replace the new retirees with progressive lawyers.

Virginia Supreme Court overturns Democrats’ redistricting measure – ABC News – Breaking News, Latest News and Videos

EXCERPT:

The Virginia Supreme Court on Friday overturned the state’s redistricting ballot measure, delivering a major setback to Democrats who hoped the new map would allow them to flip up to four congressional seats.

In a 4-3 ruling, the Virginia Supreme Court said the Democratic-led legislature violated procedural requirements when referring the measure to the ballot. Virginia voters approved the ballot measure in an election last month.

The state’s Supreme Court said Virginia will need to use its congressional map from 2021 instead.

The decision is a win for Republicans, who are now currently set to net more seats than Democrats in the ongoing, nationwide mid-decade redistricting scramble.

Virginia plans to appeal the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court, lawmakers from Virginia said on Friday in a filing asking the Virginia Supreme Court to delay its ruling.

The woman behind the Virginia special election to effectively eliminate 4 GOP U.S. House seats is now under FBI investigation. Virginia’s State Senator L. Louise Lucas saw her offices raided, along with other businesses connected to her.

So far, only anonymous sources are cited as claiming this is connected to a corruption investigation directly linked to her. She is considered the main driver of the Virginia gerrymander election plan that is currently under legal scrutiny.

On Wednesday, FBI agents reportedly raided the office and business of state Sen. L. Louise Lucas, the Virginia legislator and prominent leader of the state’s recent redistricting effort that won Democrats four more likely seats in the House of Representatives.

The senator’s office and cannabis dispensary, located on the same block, were swarmed by armed agents, decked out in camouflage tactical gear, with an armored vehicle on the scene, as they handcuffed and detained several men who were inside the dispensary. Agents carried out several boxes from the senator’s office. And, of course, MAGA’s favorite network, Fox News, was there to break the story.

Local ABC affiliate WSET cited undisclosed sources in claiming that the raid was part of an ongoing bribery and corruption investigation against Lucas initiated under the Biden administration, but several Virginia legislators have expressed skepticism about the political motivations behind the raid.

“I am deeply concerned by today’s FBI raid,” said state legislator Don Scott, the speaker of Virginia’s House of Delegates, in a statement. “Given the politicization of this administration—an FBI led by Kash Patel and a Justice Department run by President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney—I think people should take this with a grain of salt and allow the facts to come out before jumping to conclusions.”

Scott added, “At this point, we simply do not know what this ultimately means. Right now, there is far more theatrics and speculation than actual information available to the public.”

The U.S. military campaign that launched the war with Iran, Operation Epic Fury, “is over,” Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday, telling reporters that a new defensive phase had begun to secure the Strait of Hormuz.

The declaration of an end to offensive operations comes as President Trump continues to threaten a new round of strikes against the Islamic Republic, which persists in disrupting commercial shipping traffic through the vital waterway.

But Rubio, who is also the national security advisor, suggested the Trump administration is reluctant to return to full-scale war.

Spirit Airlines had a 34-year run that came to an end this month after the company declared bankruptcy. They shut down all operations and are now in the process of selling off their assets, including their planes.

A major airline is set to sell its planes after it crashed into bankruptcy after 34 years in business. As well as cancelling all flights, it has been confirmed the company will also sell its spare engines and parts.

Spirit Airlines confirmed on Saturday (May 2) that it will shut down after failing to secure a $500 million (£368 million) rescue deal from the Donald Trump administration. The low-cost airline was emerging from a previous bankruptcy filing, but the recent surge in jet fuel costs, as a result of the ongoing war in Iran, reportedly pushed it over the brink.

Spirit had planned to exit bankruptcy by the summer after striking a deal with creditors to shed billions in debt. However, its financial position has been weakened due to the increase in fuel costs.

The airline ceased operations at around 3am on Saturday when none of its planes were in the air and crew members were away from their bases. However, some passengers still arrived at the airport in the morning after not receiving messages about the cancellations.

GameStop wants to slash eBay marketing budget

Morgan Stanley similarly doubted the potential cost savings. “On the expense side, we also think the potential opportunities would likely be minimal as physical and digital business require different cost bases, as do 3P marketplaces vs. 1P wholesalers. To add another challenge, GameStop has already undergone a series of large cost cuts,” the research note said.

Morgan Stanley analysts expressed skepticism about “how a deal would be financed given the material valuation gap.” If completed, they said it could end up as the largest leveraged buyout ever, “surpassing the recently announced $55 billion Electronic Arts transaction.”

GameStop said that eBay spent $2.4 billion on sales and marketing in fiscal 2025 but added only 1 million net active buyers, increasing the total from 134 million to 135 million. GameStop said it would cut $1.2 billion from eBay’s sales and marketing budget, arguing that the current spending “is not producing more users on a marketplace with near-universal brand recognition.”

GameStop proposed cutting another $300 million from eBay’s product development expenses and $500 million from general and administrative functions. The combined company will consolidate its finance, HR, real estate, legal, IT, and professional services after the merger to save money, GameStop said.

GameStop touted its own financial performance under Cohen, saying that it “moved from a $381 million net loss in fiscal 2021 to $418 million of net income in fiscal 2025.” eBay meanwhile said in its press release today that its “board and leadership team are executing a focused strategy to drive sustainable growth and long-term shareholder value.”

eBay last week reported Q1 2026 revenue of $3.1 billion, up 19 percent year over year. eBay’s GAAP net income was $512 million, up 2 percent.

GameStop, which is on a different fiscal schedule, reported net sales of $1.1 billion in Q4 2026. That was down from $1.28 billion in the prior year’s fourth quarter. GameStop’s Q4 net income also fell year over year, from $131.3 million to $127.9 million.
