Breitbart: 5 Partisan Ex-DOD Chiefs Call for Hearings on Trump's Firing of Generals
Five former defense secretaries, all Democrats or associated with Democratic administrations, are urging Congress to investigate President Trump's recent firings of top military officials. They express concern over the lack of justification for these dismissals and call for hearings to assess national security implications.
Critics point out that the signatories have their own controversial histories, including involvement in discredited narratives and past congressional scrutiny. Notably, living former defense secretaries who did not sign the letter are all Republicans, raising questions about the motivations behind the call for hearings.

Le Monde: Japan battles biggest wildfire in decades
Japan is facing its largest wildfire in over 30 years, with flames spreading across 1,200 hectares in Ofunato, Iwate Prefecture. The blaze has resulted in one death and the evacuation of over 1,000 residents, with more than 80 buildings damaged.
Approximately 1,700 firefighters are responding to the emergency, while the cause of the fire remains unknown. This year's dry conditions, with only 2.5 mm of rainfall in February, are contributing to the severity of the situation, which reflects a broader trend of increasing wildfires linked to climate change.

GB News: Skype: Microsoft to shut down service as tech giant announces major shift
Microsoft has announced it will shut down Skype on May 5, 2024, encouraging users to transition to Teams. Once a leader in video and audio calls, Skype's user base dwindled from 150 million at acquisition in 2011 to 23 million by 2020, struggling against competitors like Zoom.
Microsoft aims to streamline its offerings by focusing on Teams, which incorporates lessons learned from Skype. Users will retain their contacts and data during the transition. This closure follows other significant Microsoft service retirements, reflecting a shift in communication technology.
