Breitbart: NBC's Todd: Trust In FBI Eroding on the Left and Right -- 'We Need a Real Church Committee'
Chuck Todd calls for a new Church Committee-style investigation into the FBI's intelligence activities after the release of John Durham’s report on the origins of the Russia probe. The report shows that the FBI suffered from confirmation bias and ignored information that countered the narrative of collusion. Todd believes that this moment is similar to when the J. Edgar Hoover FBI was no longer helpful, and a new Church Committee is required.
Breitbart: Robert De Niro Smears Trump Supporters as 'Insane' at Cannes Film Festival
Robert De Niro calls support for Donald Trump insane and compares the former president to the murderous villain in Killers of the Flower Moon during a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival. De Niro plays William Hale in the movie, which is about the murders of Osage Indians over control of their oil rights during the 1920s in Oklahoma. The actor says that evil still exists in the world and suggests that Trump is a manifestation of it, adding that it is scary because it is systemic.

Rep. Byron Donalds clashes with Chuck Todd on "Meet the Press" over debt limit negotiations and fewer IRS agents.

Biden accuses "MAGA Republicans" of trying to derail his 2024 re-election effort.
Daily Wire: Durham Report Sheds Light On ‘Catastrophic’ Two-Tiered Justice System
In the United States, Special Counsel John Durham's 320-page report concluded that the FBI failed to uphold its strict fidelity to the law during its investigation into former President Donald Trump's alleged ties to Russia. The FBI initiated the 'Crossfire Hurricane' investigation based on false allegations, set aside policies and procedures, and failed to question the predication for the investigation. The investigation did not produce any substantive evidence, and the Crossfire investigators neglected to corroborate the allegations. The report, which is prompting demands for accountability within the FBI, only led to the conviction of one former FBI attorney for altering an email in one of the FISA applications. Despite the evidence of bias, regard for established procedures, and lack of integrity noted in the report, Mark Hemingway, Federalist editor, believes there is unlikely to be any significant indictments or accountability.

Fox News: Russian invasion kills 42K Ukrainian civilians since start of war, US officials say
U.S. officials report that 42,000 Ukrainian civilians have died since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, five times more than previously reported. Russian forces have suffered 50,000 deaths and 180,000 injuries, while Ukrainian forces have suffered 20,000 deaths and 130,000 injuries in the past 13 months.
The White House has reversed course and allowed Ukrainian pilots to train on American-made F-16 fighter jets and approved an additional $375 million in ammunition to help break the months-long stalemate in the war. The Pentagon hopes these measures will aid Ukraine's counteroffensive in the upcoming spring offensive. Despite Russia's claims to have conquered the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy insists it "has not been captured by the Russian Federation today."
Euromaidan Press: Russia distracts Ukrainian air defense with wooden drones
Russian forces are using homemade wooden drones to distract Ukraine's air defense radars in northeastern Ukraine, according to Militarnyi, a Ukrainian monitoring group. The drone is assembled from extruded foam and polystyrene and has a DLE-60 engine, which can be purchased online. The wooden drone has a telemetry control that works via a mobile GSM communication channel. Russian forces used similar wooden drones in Syria in 2018 to attack their Hmeymim air base, which was made of multilayer plywood, film, and special foam that makes detection difficult for radar systems.

The Epoch Times: Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp
Learn to make a delicious strawberry rhubarb crisp dessert, perfect for a spring evening.

Combine flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt, cold butter, oats, and chopped pecans to make the crisp topping. Spoon the topping evenly over the fruit, without packing it down, and bake for 45-55 minutes at 350°F. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
The Epoch Times: ANALYSIS: The True Cost of Energy Generated From Wind Turbines
Wind power projects pose a significant threat to wildlife and ecosystems, resulting in declining populations of birds and whales, environmental changes, and lower crop yields. Concerns about the cumulative impact of wind projects on the environment have led to growing protests against wind turbines worldwide. The true cost of wind power is often hidden by claims of being pro-environment, with wind power electricity not being as reliable or cheap as it is usually claimed to be, and levelized costs of energy calculations not taking into account all the costs involved in producing electricity continuously.
The increasing number of wind turbines has resulted in fatal collisions for birds and bats, posing a significant threat to their populations, especially the already declining population of golden eagles. The installation of wind turbines and their noise pollution also harms whales, with many washing ashore. Wind projects alter habitats and cause changes, such as an increase in temperatures and a reduction in humidity levels, affecting vegetation growth and crop yields, and impacting communities living in residential areas around the farms. Wind power is not as reliable or cheap as claimed, requiring standby coal and gas-powered plants to cover for the lack of output.
