Good morning. It’s Monday, March 17.

 

President Trump said early Monday that he was voiding all the last-minute pardons former President Joe Biden made using autopen.

“The ‘Pardons’ that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen,” Trump posted on Truth Social early Monday morning.

“In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!” he said of the oldest-ever president and concerns at his age-related mental abilities at 82.

President Donald Trump confirmed that he is set to hold Ukraine war peace talks with Russia’s President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday this week, saying land and power plants are among the items on the agenda for how a post-war Ukraine will look.

Negotiations over the future of the Ukraine War have been continuing behind closed doors between the United States of America and the Russian Federation, President Trump said, as he revealed that leader talks are scheduled for Tuesday.

President Trump greeted journalists aboard Air Force One as he flew from Florida to Washington D.C. late Sunday night and opened with thoughts on the Ukraine War before taking questions. Summarising the advances in communications with Russia in recent days — which, until weeks ago, the two countries had been out of contact for years, following the Biden Presidency’s freeze in response to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine — President Trump remarked: “We learned a lot, we’re doing pretty well I think with Russia. We’ll see if we have something to announce maybe, by Tuesday.”

Not long after sparking outrage inside and outside the country by barring right-wing frontrunner Calin Georgescu from running in May’s presidential election, Romania has barred another populist from the contest, attributing the decision to the candidate’s supposedly unacceptable policy stances and “making declarations “contrary to democratic values.”

Romania’s electoral commission on Saturday announced that Diana Sosoaca would be banned from competing for the country’s presidency. That news is troubling enough on its face, but the Central Election Bureau’s rationale makes the development all the more chilling: Sosoaca is supposedly unfit for office because she has publicly voiced opposition to Romania’s memberships in the European Union and NATO.

The court said Sosoaca’s stances are disqualifying because EU and NATO memberships are explicitly acknowledged in Romania’s constitution. However, constitutions can be changed via legal processes, and any rational champion of democratic principles should think political candidates should be free to advocate for changes.

Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., his staff and family have been the target of harassment and death threats, according to a memo released by his office on Thursday afternoon.

Voicemails shared by Tillis’ team, which were filled with profanity and fueled by discontent with President Donald Trump, reveal a frightening new reality. The senator’s senior advisor, Daniel Keylin, said “the volume of threats and harassment directed at members of Congress and their staff is the new normal.”

“Yeah, Thom Tillis, afraid of death threats? Then get the f— out of office,” one caller said in a voicemail.

Americans once again donned their green beads and shamrocks for St. Patrick’s Day, celebrating the largest Irish diaspora in the world. St. Patrick’s Day has become an opportunity for Ireland and the United States to celebrate their rich cultural and political connections.

New York City is hosting its 264th St. Patrick’s Day Parade today – marking the oldest and longest standing St. Patrick’s Day parade in the world. The first parade was held in 1762, predating America’s Declaration of Independence.

Major cities across the United States hosted their own St. Patrick’s Day parades this weekend – including Boston, Philadelphia, San Francisco and Chicago. Chicago even dyes the Chicago River green each year to mark the celebration.

Five Republican lawmakers in the Minnesota Senate are set to introduce a bill on Monday to designate “Trump derangement syndrome” as a legitimate mental illness in the state.

“Trump derangement syndrome” is a term frequently used by President Donald Trump and Trump supporters.

It is often used in reference to perceived political opponents and to describe someone who they feel has a biased preoccupation with Trump. It is not recognized as a mental health diagnosis.

A 7-year-old Missouri girl named Scarlett Selby was left in a coma after a squishy toy exploded while she was attempting a viral TikTok challenge.

“It all happened so quickly,” the victim’s father, Josh Selby, 44, told Kennedy News while recounting the horrific ordeal. “I heard her scream, and it was like a blood-curdling scream.”

The tot, who resides in Festus, was copying a challenge she saw on TikTok and YouTube where people place NeeDoh — a squishy stress cube made of rubber with a polyvinyl alcohol filling — in the freezer and then microwave it for several seconds to make it more malleable.
