An advisor to the UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has warned that Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems will become powerful enough to “kill many humans” within the next two years.
Matt Clifford, an advisor to the UK government’s Advanced Research and Invention Agency (Aria) AI Taskforce, called the rapid development of AI “striking” and argued that policymakers should prepare themselves for threats “ranging from cyberattacks to the creation of bioweapons.”

“If we try and create artificial intelligence that is more intelligent than humans and we don’t know how to control it, then that’s going to create a potential for all sorts of risks now and in the future,” Clifford explained.
“You can have really very dangerous threats to humans that could kill many humans, not all humans, simply from where we’d expect models to be in two years time,” he added.
Joe Biden is considering granting an executive action that would grant temporary legalstatus and workpermits to illegalaliens in the United States, particularly those married to American citizens. National Democrat leaders, pushing the White House to action, believe the move could help push Hispanic voters to support Biden ahead of November’s presidential election.
Progressive lawmakers on Capitol Hill want Biden to pair the expanded work permits and legal status with any potential executive action to stymie the unchecked flow of illegals at the southern border. They contend that combining the two policy changes could help soften blowback from progressive and pro-open border voters should the Biden government try and enact more restrictive border policies.

Lagging behind former President Donald Trump in 2024 election polls, Biden has signaled — and subsequently backed down — on several occasions that he may use his authority as President to block illegalaliens from entering the United States if the number of crossings reaches a certain threshold. Some Democrats and progressive activists have criticized the Democratic incumbent for even considering the border policy change.
While some Democrats believe granting temporary legal status and work permits to the illegal alien spouses of U.S. citizens will help Biden with Hispanic voters, polling data continues to suggest otherwise. The National Pulse has reported on numerous national polls that show Hispanic voters, by and large, oppose Biden’s current open borders policy.
Additionally, Hispanic voters increasingly say they support the use of the term “illegal immigrant” to describe unauthorized border crossers. Support for mass deportation of illegal aliens — especially those who commit crimes — is also on the rise with Hispanic voters.

Donald Trump has unveiled a series of policies aimed at driving “the radical left” out of America’s “once great educational institutions,” revealing that his “secret weapon will be the college accreditation system.”
Noting that the cost of tuition has been “absolutely exploding” while academics have wasted funds on “indoctrinating America’s youth,” Trump said higher education accreditors “are supposed to ensure that schools are not ripping off students and taxpayers, but they have failed totally.”

Trump vows to "reclaim our once great educational institutions from the radical left" by removing accreditation from colleges "dominated by Marxist maniacs" and directing civil rights investigations against schools involved in racial discrimination "under the guise of equity." pic.twitter.com/S8q6nJRt2Q
“When I return to the White House, I will fire the radical left accreditors that have allowed our colleges to become dominated by Marxist maniacs and lunatics,” he vowed.
New accreditors will “impose real standards,” including “defending the American tradition and Western civilization, protecting free speech, eliminating wasteful administrative positions… [and] removing all Marxist Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion bureaucrats,” he said.
On Tuesday it was revealed that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s key surrogates are now jockeying for positions in the Trump administration, including Education Secretary.

The United Kingdom pledged an additional $620 million in military aid for Ukraine on Tuesday, including over four million rounds of ammunition and long-range missiles. The aid follows the passage of a $61 billion package for Ukraine in the U.S. House of Representatives and comes as Russia is stepping up its advances on Ukraine’s eastern front following significant battlefield victories earlier this year.
The office of British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said he called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky Tuesday morning to confirm the aid, before traveling to Warsaw to discuss even more aid with Poland’s globalist Prime Minister Donald Tusk and NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. Sunak assured the “U.K.’s steadfast support” for what his office described as “Ukraine’s defense against Russia’s brutal and expansionist ambitions.”

The $620 million aid package includes 400 vehicles, 60 boats, 1,600 munitions, and four million rounds of ammunition. The UK will also send Storm Shadow long-range missiles as part of the shipment.
Even with further aid from the UK and the U.S., a Ukrainian victory in its war with Russia is far from guaranteed. U.S. Senator J.D. Vance pointed out that Ukraine needs more munitions and soldiers than it could possibly field to defeat Russia. Regional experts have said the “writing is on the wall” for Ukraine, and even NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg predicted Ukraine might have to “compromise” with Russia in order to achieve piece.

European Union (EU) regulators are proceeding with an investigation into the TikTok app regarding its age-verification process and addictivefeatures. The investigation comes as the EU warned TikTok on Monday that it would face fines over what they allege are addictive features used by a version of the social media giant’s app called TikTok Lite. Regulators accuse TikTok’s Chinese-based parent company, ByteDance, of failing to carry out risk assessments on the new features added to TikTok Lite, including a rewards program that allows users to win gift cards for watching videos.
According to EU regulators, the gift card program may breach European laws as it creates a financial incentive for users to spend more extended periods on the TikTok app and could facilitate social media addiction in children. Additionally, European lawmakers are concerned that the social media app could be exacerbating mental health issues among its population.

The social media company — deemed noncompliant with the EU’s Digital Services Act — will have until April 23 to provide the European Commission with its risk assessment. Additional supplementary documents are due by May 3. If TikTok fails to comply with the regulatory request, it faces penalties of up to 1 percent of its annual income and a rolling penalty of up to 5 percent of its average daily income.
TikTok and ByteDance are also facing renewed scrutiny in the United States. The U.S. Senate will soon consider a broad package of foreign aid and regulatory provisions, a subset of which addresses concerns over TikTok’s Chinese ownership. The provision will require the Chinese technology conglomerate ByteDance to either divest itself from the ownership of the TikTok app or face its ban in the U.S.

Americans continue to be split on the issue of abortion, with new polling indicating that a narrow majority want Congress to enact a law that would restore its legal treatment under Roe v. Wade. Among Americans at large, 54 percent say they want lawmakers to maintain the legality and accessibility of abortion under Roe. Meanwhile, 56 percent of registered voters say the same.
This is the highest level of support for permissive access to abortion seen in the Yahoo News/YouGov survey since they began asking the question following the U.S. Supreme Court‘s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade in 2022. Far-reaching state-level abortion restrictions are likely the cause for increased polling support for Roe-esque access laws. In Arizona, the state’s Supreme Court recently reinstated an 1864 law that bans abortion in almost every case.

The Arizona abortion ban is unpopular among a broad swath of the electorate. Polling shows 57 percent of Americans disapprove of the court’s decision to reinstate the law. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election campaign hopes to capitalize off of voter sentiment against restrictive state-level abortion laws. They’ve launched large ad buys in several swing states focusing on the issue. The National Pulse reported in mid-April that the Biden campaign launched a seven-figure ad buy in Arizona focusing on abortion and the President’s support for pro-choice policies.
However, the narrow-majority support for Roe v. Wade-style permissive abortion laws may not be all good news for the Biden campaign. An Emerson College poll of voters in Florida from April 12 shows the issue of abortion ranking relatively low among voter concerns. Despite Florida residents saying they supported a state referendum enshrining permissive abortion rights in the Sunshine State, former President Donald Trump held a double-digit lead over Biden. This appears to indicate that most don’t associate Trump with state Republican efforts to restrict abortion access. Additionally, it suggests that abortion is not a vote-moving issue, meaning it ranks relatively low in terms of voter intensity.

Senator Mike Lee (R-UT) says the right-leaning news network Newsmax cut an entire segment of his interview with them yesterday evening. The Utah Republican claims the unaired segment of his interview focused on his criticism of the Ukraine foreign aid supplemental funding bill.
“Newsmax cut an entire segment of my interview last night,” Sen. Lee posted on X (formerly Twitter) late this afternoon. The conservative lawmaker continued: “No mention of Ukraine—even though part of the interview focused specifically on the supplemental.”

“I’ve never had this happen with any news network, not like this,” he added.
Sen. Lee specifically called out Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy over the cut segment, with the Senator asking him “what happened?”
The Utah Senator has been a strong critic of sending additional military and foreign aid to Ukraine, especially as its defense against Russia’s invasions appears to be faltering. On Saturday, a coalition of Democrats and Republicans in the House passed a series of supplemental funding bills that provide for tens of billions of dollars in aid for Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. The legislation also includes a provision that would force the Chinese-owned company ByteDance to divest itself from TikTok.
A spokesman for Lee also told The National Pulse: “On Tuesday, Senator Lee appeared on ‘Eric Bolling The Balance’ on Newsmax to discuss various political issues of the day. For some reason, Newsmax aired everything but Senator Lee’s condemnation of the disastrous foreign aid bill that abandons America’s borders while throwing 60 billion dollars into the Ukraine proxy war. It is unclear who at Newsmax made the decision, but we know that it was not Mr. Bolling.”
The National Pulse previously reported that Newsmax received a $50 million investment from the Qatari royal family.

Day two of the Manhattan-based hush money trial of former PresidentDonaldTrump saw abbreviated testimony from the former National Enquirer CEO, David Pecker. The National Pulse’s editor-in-chief, Raheem Kassam, noted on X (formerly Twitter) that the tabloid newsman’s recounting of events did not go well for District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prosecution. After briefly taking the stand on Monday — before the court adjourned around 12:30 PM ET — Pecker continued his testimony on Tuesday, delving into the substantive nature of the accusations leveled by Bragg’s office.
PECKER SCHEMED WITH COHEN ALONE.
While Bragg and his prosecution team have insisted that Michael Cohen‘s payments to smut star Stormy Daniels were at the direction of former President DonaldTrump, David Pecker directly undermined this aspect of the case. Pecker testified that he was the one who told Trump that women might come forward with false accusations of affairs since the former President had been a sought-after bachelor connected with multiple beautiful women.

According to Pecker, it was he and Cohen who planned the strategy of paying off accusers and having them sign non-disclosure agreements. The newsman insinuated that Trump himself was unaware of their scheme. Pecker’s testimony appears to represent a significant blow to Bragg’s prosecution, which is largely contingent on Trump having directed the payment scheme.
DID TRUMP VIOLATE THE GAG ORDER?
The only other significant courtroom action happened before Pecker’s testimony. Prosecutors and attorneys for the former President argued before JudgeJuanMerchan as to whether Trump had violated a court-issued gag order. Bragg’s team told the judge that Trump had “willfully,” “flagrantly,” and “repeatedly” violated the order with both social media posts and comments made to the press outside the Manhattan courthouse. Todd Blanche, the lead attorney for Trump, fired back that the former President is “allowed to respond to political attacks.”
Democrat-aligned Judge Juan Merchan appeared frustrated with Blanche’s line of defense and repeatedly asked him to point to specific posts or comments by Michael Cohen or Stormy Daniels that constituted “political attacks.” Blanche offered a few examples and insisted that Trump has complied with Merchan’s gag order, which caused Merchan to become irate.
“You’re losing all credibility, I have to tell you right now,” the judge told Blanche, adding angrily: “You’re losing all credibility with the court.” Despite his outburst, Merchant said he would not rule today on whether former President Trump had willfully violated the gag order.

Russia is decisively outplaying the Joe Biden regime in Africa, senior U.S. officials are admitting, as Niger becomes the latest country to push out American troops in favor of Russian mercenaries. Having poured over a billion dollars into Niger, well over a thousand U.S. troops will now have to be withdrawn from the Sahel region state over the coming months, and critical new drone bases will be abandoned.
A senior U.S. military official with experience in Niger described the event as “a devastating blow, both for our regional counterterrorism efforts and to overall peace in the region going forward.” Russian military advisers and materiel are already arriving in the country.

Chad, the Central African Republic, Mali, and Libya, have already turned to Russia to enhance their security, POLITICOreports, with a senior U.S. official telling the news outlet: “Where the Russians have a real advantage over the United States is they have weapons, and they sell weapons, including helicopters.”
It is an embarrassing state of affairs for Biden and his NATO allies — France, the former colonial power, has already had its forces ejected from Niger — at a time when a diplomatic and sanctions blitz against Russia following the onset of the Ukraine war was supposed to curb its influence on the world stage. Instead, the U.S. is being further pushed back in a region where neighboring Mali and Burkina Faso had already undergone military coups, brought in Russian mercenaries, and realigned with Moscow.
Cameron Hudson, a former intelligence officer for Africa at the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), described how the U.S. had tried to fill the vacuum in “all of these countries” when French influence waned following decolonization.
“All of that is clearly not working. We are now out. Russia is now in,” he lamented.

Tony Bobulinski, a former associate of HunterBiden, filed a $20 million defamation lawsuit against Rep. JamieRaskin (D-MD) yesterday. Bobulinski, the witness for the Republican impeachmentinquiry into Joe Biden, has filed several lawsuits against Democrats over their commentary about him. According to Bobulinski, Rep. Raskin has refused to comply with multiple requests to retract and delete allegedly defamatory remarks, necessitating the lawsuit.
Raskin, the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, often criticizes the Republican impeachmentinquiry into JoeBiden‘s son, Hunter. The Democrat lawmaker has repeatedly questioned Bobulinksi’s credibility. The lawsuit alleges Raskin published “false statements” online to undermine Bobulinski after his testimony before the impeachment inquiry.

The legal filing also accuses Raskin, in an MSNBC interview, of insinuating that Bobulinski engaged in spying and other criminal activity, thus damaging his integrity. In the same interview, Raskin ridiculed the GOP impeachment witnesses, accusing Bobulinski of maintaining ties to sanctioned Russia-based energy magnate Viktor Vekselberg. Several corporate news outlets subsequently picked up these accusations, further damaging the witness’s reputation.
Bobulinski’s lawsuit alleges that Raskin defamed the witness by suggesting he may have lied to Congress to gain favor with former President DonaldTrump. The filing states that he possesses no affiliation with Trump’s presidential campaign. These comments by Raskin, the suit claims, have contributed to a “defamatory social media blitz.”
In addition to Raskin, Bobulinski has also filed lawsuits against former Trump aide-turned-Democrat ally CassidyHutchinson and Fox News‘s Democrat commentator Jessica Tarlov.

The NeverTrump group Republican Voters Against Trump is set to release a new ad that will air on Fox News in several swing states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. It features an unidentified man asking various employees at an unknown mall location about being hired. The man will then off-handedly mention that he’s either facing 88 felony charges, that he’s been found liable for sexual assault, or that he’s been charged with falsifying business records. Each one of the store employees demurs or outright tells him he won’t be hired.
Republican Voters Against Trump’s intended message is that the charges — with no convictions at this point — against former President DonaldTrump are disqualifying. However, the ad’s premise is flawed, based on the use of charges brought by the Biden government’s lawfare campaign against the former President.

On the whole, the four separate prosecutions that comprise the charges have repeatedly been labeled by legalexperts as dubious. The NeverTrump group appears to believe voters can be fooled by oversimplifying the legal persecution brought by Biden and his Democrat political allies.
In all likelihood, the whole ad is staged, and the reported mall store employees are simply actors — despite the ad using a black bar to hide their faces, giving the impression that it is an undercover video. Otherwise, Republican Voters Against Trump may have unintentionally exposed several businesses engaging in employment discrimination.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) states that while employers can consider criminal convictions in hiring, the denial of hiring based solely on an arrest and not a conviction is discrimination. If these are real people, each of whom responded negatively to the 88 charges line, they likely violated EEOC rules.
