Trump Turns Up The Heat On Greenland
In an interview with Vince Coglianese, Trump said a U.S. delegation was traveling to the territory this week “to let them know that we need Greenland for international safety and security.”Advertisement“We need it, we have to have it,” Trump said. Asked if he thinks the Greenlandic public would be on board with his plans, Trump said he wasn’t sure. This is not stopping Trump, who separately told reporters in the Oval Office on Wednesday that the U.S. “will go as far as we have to go” to get control of Greenland. “The tightened rhetoric is in every way far-fetched.”AdvertisementDanish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on Wednesday called on the people of Greenland to stand firm.

Europe Lashes Out Over Trump's New Auto Tariffs With 'Cost Growth' Warning
AdvertisementThe head of Germany’s auto industry association, VDA, said the tariffs would weigh on car makers and every company in the deeply interwoven global supply chain “with negative consequences above all for consumers, including in North America.”“The consequences will cost growth and prosperity on all sides,” Hildegard Müller said in a statement. The U.S. is the biggest export destination for the European auto industry and in 2023, European automakers exported 56 billion euros worth of vehicles and parts to the U.S.. Europe’s auto industry supports 13.8 million jobs, or 6.1% of total EU employment. Any trouble in the auto industry would weigh on the European economy that did not grow at all in the last quarter of 2024 and just 0.9% for the entire year. Support HuffPost Already contributed? AdvertisementGerman auto association head Müller called for immediate negotiations between the EU and U.S. on a bilateral agreement that would offer “a forum to discuss the various tariff and non-tariff barriers for automobile products and could lead to a more balanced approach.”

War Plans Leak Reveals The Shocking Incompetence Of The Trump Administration
The messages, which The Atlantic first reported on Monday, discussed plans for strikes in Yemen, along with other sensitive national security matters. Here are some of the biggest takeaways from this national security failure:Using Signal To Discuss National Security IssuesThe Trump administration’s decision to use a third-party messaging app like Signal flies in the face of basic operational security measures. Repeated Denials That These Texts Weren’t ‘War Plans’ Fall FlatAfter Goldberg published his initial story saying Trump’s national security adviser, Michael Waltz, accidentally added him to the Signal group, Trump’s team pushed back on the claim that they ever discussed war plans. “The Atlantic released the so-called ‘war plans’ and those ‘plans’ include: No names. And no classified information.”Advertisement“Those are some really shitty war plans,” Hegseth added.

Trump Cuts Lawyer Funding For Unaccompanied Migrant Kids
Now, the legal representation funding is apparently being slashed altogether. The Office of Refugee Resettlement is housed within the Department of Health and Human Services and is responsible for overseeing the care of unaccompanied migrant children, including in contracted shelters. By Monday, over 100 organizations involved in Acacia’s Unaccompanied Children Program signed onto a statement opposing the cut. AdvertisementThe cuts are just one of several steps the Trump administration has taken targeting undocumented youth. Advertisement“I’ve seen how, without a legal advocate representing their interests, unaccompanied children can really get lost,” Nick Cuneo, a doctor who has worked with unaccompanied children, said on the Amica call.

GOP Squabbling Shows Passing Trump’s Agenda Is Harder Than Doing Executive Orders
and his top deputies criticized Senate Republicans for not adopting the budget resolution that the House approved last month. In response, a Senate Republican aide noted the House has spent more time on recess than the Senate. The aide also pointedly noted the Senate has only taken one recess so far this year, while the House has taken three. AdvertisementJohnson has set a goal of passing a budget resolution unlocking a filibuster-free path for Trump’s agenda in both houses of Congress by April 7, ahead of a scheduled two-week Easter break. Senate Republicans would prefer to prioritize permanency for the already enacted tax cuts, which will expire at the end of the year if Congress doesn’t act.

Courtesy of Cara Danielle BrownSo when she texted me out of the blue — “would love to catch up soon” — I wasn’t sure how to feel. I wanted to talk to her, but I wasn’t sure I could forgive. I wasn’t sure she could either. I could tell she was uncomfortable, but she owned her part, too, stating she’d lost herself during wedding planning and felt she’d been selfish. I wasn’t sure.

I Am A USAID Worker Who Lost My Job. Here's What Trump And Musk Aren't Telling You About The Cuts.
The American boss of one of my grandmother’s friends — a complete stranger to my father and grandmother — used to send them care packages from Chicago during the war. Until late January 2025, the U.S. Agency for International Development used to provide this same kind of lifesaving aid and development assistance in about 130 countries. I am grateful that I have found my true vocation in mission-driven organizations — first in education in conflict/post-conflict zones, and later for humanitarian aid organizations — for close to 20 years. Many development organizations won’t financially survive; institutional knowledge will be lost as people change careers; and everyone will have less trust in the U.S. government to keep its promises. By eviscerating USAID, Trump and Elon Musk are redefining what it means to be American.

Good Morning, News: A New Waterfront Park, More Terrible News for Musk & Tesla, and This "Bad" Painting of Trump is Actually Very Accurate
This is EXACTLY the type of pro-Portland projects the city needs to attract tourism and locals into the downtown area. • Speaking of Trump malfeasance, Portland's postal workers took to the streets yesterday in droves to protest the president's threats to make drastic cuts and privatize the postal service. Postal employees and supporters want to remind us that the service provides a critical lifeline to everyone, especially those in rural areas, who depend on the postal service to deliver needed mail, medication, voter ballots, and more. She was famously one of the few Republican legislators who refused to vote for Trump in 2016. • And finally... since it's Monday, you probably need this video of 20 dogs saying "I love you."

The Most Important Sleep Rule For A Longer Life, According To Science
So perhaps I shouldn’t have been as surprised as I was to learn from a study referenced in gut health company ZOE’s podcast that sleep duration might not be the most important factor for a long life. And it turns out that a 2024 paper listed sleep regularity as a “stronger predictor of mortality” than even sleep duration. The scientists acknowledged that both way too much and way too little sleep are linked to an increased risk of premature death. This was more strongly associated with mortality than how many hours of sleep participants got a night. Additionally, the scientists “found that irregular sleep predicted [a] higher risk of mortality by cancer, whereas short sleep duration did not.”Why might sleep regularity matter more than sleep duration?
