Pope-Pourri (feat. Andi McNew)

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025

Today, turns out the intel that Pete Hegseth shared on at least two unsecure Signal chats came from a classified system; three prosecutors on the Eric Adams case have resigned after being pressured by Emil Bove to lie about it; new images could change cancer research but ICE has detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them; lawyers for Abrego Garcia issue their first letter accusing the government of obstructing the court ordered discovery in his case; the FDA has suspended quality tests for milk; the Trump administration will be sending those in student loan default to collections; A Tennessee bill that would have required school districts to ask students their citizenship status is likely now dead for the year; a Trump draft order calls for a dramatic restructuring of the State Department; a federal judge orders the government to give Venezuelan migrants in Colorado a 21 day deportation notice; HHS is going to scrap the national LGBTQ Youth Suicide Hotline; and Sarah Palin loses her defamation suit against the New York Times… again; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
