Fox News: Former Salvadoran President Alfredo Cristiani charged in connection with 1989 Jesuit massacre
Former President Alfredo Cristiani of El Salvador has been formally charged for his alleged involvement in the 1989 massacre of six Jesuit priests and two others. Prosecutors allege that Cristiani was present at a meeting where the killings were authorized during the country's civil war. The former president denies knowledge of or involvement in the murders, which shocked the world.
Cristiani and seven of the country's top-ranking military officers at the time face charges of homicide, conspiracy, and terrorism in the case. Prosecutors say the officers' statements during a previous military trial were falsified by lawyer and former legislator Rodolfo Parker. A general amnesty passed in 1993 during Cristiani's administration had prevented the pursuit of those involved in war crimes until it was repealed in 2016.

The Epoch Times: Trump Fires Back at Michael Cohen in New Legal Drama
Former President Trump filed a court bid to block an attempt by Michael Cohen to dismiss a lawsuit accusing his former lawyer of breaching his fiduciary duty by 'spreading falsehoods.' Trump's legal team accused Cohen of 'egregious breaches of fiduciary duty and contract' in connection to a podcast and books that are 'intended to be embarrassing or detrimental' to Trump. This comes months after lawyers for Trump filed a lawsuit against Cohen, seeking $500 million in damages, saying the former attorney broke confidentiality agreements with Trump.
Cohen’s attorneys argued that Trump’s lawsuit failed to properly state a claim and said it was a bid to silence a government witness in the prosecution of Trump. Neither federal prosecutors nor investigators in the office of special counsel Robert Mueller pursued a criminal case against Trump, although the charges against Cohen referenced Trump. Cohen himself was sentenced to three years in a New York prison for tax evasion, lying to Congress, and campaign finance violations regarding payments related to the 2016 election.

The Federalist Papers: BlackRock CEO Lets Audience In on the Evil Things He's Been Doing at Company
BlackRock CEO, Larry Fink, has been criticized for using Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) scores to force "woke" ideologies on his employees, as well as utilizing the scores in achieving social change. According to SG Analytics, these scores, ranging from 0 to 100, allow investors to compare a company's performance to that of its competitors, making them increasingly important in the business world. However, Fink and other executives are using their significance to promote progressive categories like "carbon footprint" and "board of Directors' diversity," among others. In 2017, Fink stated, "You have to force behaviors and if you don’t force behaviors, whether it’s gender, or race, or any way you want to say, ‘the composition of your team,’ you’re going to be impacted.”

Breitbart: Our Top Priority is Joining NATO, Says Sweden Defence Minister
Sweden’s defense minister prioritizes gaining full NATO membership before the next summit, with NATO aiming to bring Sweden into the fold for the July meeting, pending endorsements from Hungary and Turkey. Sweden's anti-terrorism legislation would “close up any remaining loopholes” to address Turkey’s concern. Sweden joining NATO would strengthen the alliance, deepen ties with the United States and its ally Japan, and aid in supporting Ukraine.
Turkey and Hungary have yet to endorse Sweden joining the alliance. Sweden prioritizes becoming a full-fledged NATO member and will continue supporting Ukraine with weapons, as it is in the country's national interest. Sweden's defense minister and his Japanese counterpart will discuss the further strengthening of their military ties, following an agreement on defense technology and equipment transfer signed in December.

The Epoch Times: Target's $13 Billion Stock Plunge Is a Message for Woke Corporations: Kevin O'Leary
Kevin O'Leary, a venture capitalist and television personality, believes that the recent multibillion-dollar stock drop for Target is investors' way of sending a "Get woke, go broke" message to corporations who pursue progressive social and political agendas. Target's stock has plummeted due to conservative backlash over the company's decision to sell LGBT-themed items and clothing. O'Leary warns that straying too far from a business's core function of making money for shareholders can result in hugely damaging consequences.
Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, predicts that Target will soon face lawsuits for "destruction of shareholder value." Musk's comments come in response to the recent downgrading of Target's stock by JPMorgan. Conservative activist Charlie Kirk tweeted about the downgrading before Musk chimed in, warning that shareholders will likely organize to get politics out of corporations that have become hyper-political. With other major brands like Bud Light, Chick-fil-A, PetSmart, and Walmart facing backlash for supporting LGBT causes, experts speculate that such brands are supporting transgender ideologies in order to score points on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards.
Breitbart: J.D. Vance: BlackRock 'Engaged in Illegal and Immoral Conduct'

BlackRock has led the Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) movement, pressuring companies to adopt leftist positions such as diversity requirements, climate change positions, and racial equity audits. Vance has described ESG policies as a "massive racket to enrich Wall Street."
