Maine Governor Slams Trump Over His Demand for a ‘Full Throated Apology’
STANDING STRONG
Maine Gov. Janet Mills bit back at President Donald Trump on Monday, following his weekend demand that she issue a “full throated apology” for publicly challenging him, the Bangor Daily News reported. In response to his demand, the Democratic governor said she stands for “the rule of law” at an event in Bangor. “If the current occupant of the White House wants to protect women and girls, he should start by protecting the women and teenage girls who are suffering miscarriages and dying because they can’t get basic, life-saving health care in states across this country,” Mills said. “If he truly cares about women and girls and people of this country, let’s see the economic plan. Let’s see the health care plan. Let’s see the education plan.” In February, Mills clashed with the president during a governors' meeting at the White House. When threatened with federal funding cuts over a trans athlete ban, the governor retorted, “see you in court.” The president’s rant on TruthSocial claimed that “While the State of Maine has apologized for their Governor’s strong, but totally incorrect, statement about men playing in women’s sports while at the White House House Governor’s Conference, we have not heard from the Governor herself, and she is the one that matters in such cases,” adding: “Therefore, we need a full throated apology from the Governor herself, and a statement that she will never make such an unlawful challenge to the Federal Government again, before this case can be settled.” Mills is the first female governor and former attorney general of Maine.

‘White Lotus’ Stars React to the Show’s Viral Incest Scene
DON’T JUDGE
It’s not really an HBO show if there isn’t a viral sex scene, and for The White Lotus that truism rung particularly true Sunday night thanks to brothers Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger) and Lochlan Ratliff (Sam Nivola) who got a little bit too handsy during a wild threesome. Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published Monday, Schwarzenegger defended the show’s decision to include such a scandalous sex scene, explaining that director Mike White was evidently trying to achieve a greater effect beyond shock value. “There’s some sensationalism, but then there’s also the stuff behind the wall of the character and what he’s dealing with in the conflict of what just happened,” Schwarzenegger said. “There’s always more than what just meets the eye of the shock value on the screen.” Nivola also added, “We really trusted Mike ... There’s always a very shocking, crazy, intense moment in every season. It’s never just for the sake of being shocking, it always serves the story.” He continued, “And that [incest] scene is really the inciting incident for where our relationship goes next. It’s a great storytelling tactic. Going into this, we really trusted Mike because he’s a f***ing bada** and a genius.”

Postmaster General Resigns After Five Years
ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST
U.S. Postmaster General Louis DeJoy resigned from his role Monday, ending a five-year tenure and naming Deputy Postmaster General Doug Tulino as his interim replacement. “I believe strongly that the organization is well positioned and capable of carrying forward and fully implementing the many strategies and initiatives that comprise our transformation and modernization,” DeJoy said in a statement, according to The Washington Post. “I have been working closely with the Deputy Postmaster General to prepare for this transition.” The 75th postmaster general, DeJoy’s departure comes weeks after he reached an agreement with Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency to streamline cost-cutting efforts at the agency, according to Time magazine. President Donald Trump has also floated the idea of merging the U.S. Postal Service with the Commerce Department, while Musk has said that he believes the postal service should be privatized. Both actions would have to pass through Congress for approval.

Multiple Bombs Found at Tesla Showroom in Texas
SCARY
The Austin Police Department found “incendiary devices” at a Tesla dealership in North Austin on Monday, Fox 7 reported. Officials responded to a call at about 8:04 a.m. local time in relation to the suspicious devices at the Austin Tesla dealership. On arrival, the police called in the APD Bomb Squad to investigate the devices that were later identified as designed to cause fires. The security incident follows backlash faced by the Elon Musk-owned electric vehicle company. Those opposed to the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) boss’ work alongside President Donald Trump seem to have succumbed to targeting Telsa cars and property across the nation. The Austin incident follows a case in which five Tesla vehicles were scorched at a Tesla Collision Center in Las Vegas. Following this March 18 occurrence, the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department noted that it “was a targeted attack against a Tesla facility.” The very same incident also prompted U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to call the attacks “nothing short of domestic terrorism.” The White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt also weighed in, blaming Democrats for the “heinous violence.” The president and Musk have even claimed that the alleged vandalism is coordinated. That said, last week, enforcement officials and domestic extremism experts said they didn’t find any evidence that the recent series of attacks on Tesla vehicles, dealerships, and charging stations were planned.

Maria Shriver Opens Up on ‘Brutal’ Divorce From Arnold Schwarzenegger
TELL ALL
In a new book, Maria Shriver shares how her life took a “brutal” turn after her 25-year marriage to Arnold Schwarzenegger ended, People reports. The 69-year-old former first lady of California once had it good—as an NBC anchor, a Kennedy, and wife to the Austrian bodybuilder. In I Am Maria, out April 1, Shriver divulges her initial fascination with her ex-husband. “Thirty-year-old Arnold Schwarzenegger looked and sounded different from anyone I’d ever met. My attraction to him was instantaneous,” she wrote, adding: “My family was shocked. No one understood my relationship with Arnold. After all, Arnold was a Republican, a bodybuilder, and he wanted to be a movie star. He lived in a two-bedroom apartment and wore a Speedo.” Then her life came to a screeching halt in 2011. Her father, Sargent Shriver, passed away two years after the death of her mother, Eunice Kennedy Shriver, and her marriage to the actor and former Republican governor ended after she discovered he’d fathered a son with their housekeeper. Following her divorce, Shriver, who shares four children with Schwarzenegger—Katherine, 35, Christina, 33, Patrick, 31, and Christopher, 27—writes that she was “consumed with grief and wracked with confusion, anger, fear, sadness, and anxiety.” She also writes, “I was unsure now of who I was, where I belonged. Honestly, it was brutal, and I was terrified,” adding, “As I sat on my hotel room floor in the dark, alone with tears streaming down my face, I thought to myself: Maria, this doesn’t have to be the end of you.”

‘Return of the Mack’ Singer Mark Morrison Arrested After Restaurant Fracas
GRAND RETURN
“Return of the Mack” singer Mark Morrison has been charged with battery after a run in with the manager of a high-end restaurant in Florida, according to TMZ. The pop star, who has a long history of brushes with the law, reportedly pushed the manager of Le Bar à Vin in Palm Beach on his upper body during a disagreement over an event Morrison had apparently booked, to be hosted at the venue. Witnesses reportedly jumped in after the argument became physical. TMZ also obtained a photo, purportedly showing the English singer, 52, in cuffs. Morrison was reportedly released Sunday morning after posting $1,000 bond. In 1999 The Guardian called Morrison the “baddest boy in pop,” after he sent a lookalike to finish community service for him after he violated an order imposed in 1995 for his part in a brawl in which a man died. He laid low in Barbados for a month and was arrested upon his return to England.

Donald Trump Jr. Joins Board of Online Firearms Retailer GrabAGun
BIG SHOT
Donald Trump Jr. is headlining a group of conservative gun activists joining the board of online firearms retailer GrabAGrun as it plans to go public later this year, the company announced Monday. GrabAGrun is in the process of merging with a holding company led by businessman Omeed Malik, whose conservative-leaning venture fund 1789 Capital has invested in Tucker Carlson’s independent media outlet, the newsletter publisher Substack, and Elon Musk’s xAI, SpaceX, and X. Don Jr. joined 1789 as a partner last year. President Donald Trump’s eldest son is one of several prominent right-wing additions to be added to GrabAGun’s board; venture capitalist Blake Masters, a protégé of Peter Thiel and failed candidate for Senate and Congress, is also joining. So are onetime National Rifle Association (NRA) executive director Chris Cox and YouTuber, gun activist, and lawyer Collins Idehen Jr., who goes by the alias Colion Noir and has produced content for the NRA. In a filing noted by Axios, GrabAGun said it is growing fastest among the coveted Gen Z and millennial demographics, positioning it for sustained revenues. Don Jr., meanwhile, is the publisher of the hunting and outdooring lifestyle brand Field Ethos, which publishes a quarterly print journal and sells branded clothing and recreational gear.

Trump Imposes 25% Tariffs on Countries That Buy Oil and Gas From Venezuela
A PUNISHMENT
President Donald Trump announced 25 percent tariffs on any country that buys oil or gas from Venezuela on Monday, writing on Truth Social that “Venezuela has purposefully and deceitfully sent to the United States, undercover, tens of thousands of high level, and other, criminals, many of whom are murderers and people of a very violent nature.” The post further said that “hostile” Venezuela had sent gangs to the U.S., including Tren de Aragua, which has been designated a terrorist organization. Trump announced the tariffs would go into effect on April 2, which the president has dubbed “LIBERATION DAY IN AMERICA.” Trump imposed 25 percent tariffs on goods from Canada and Mexico earlier this month but was forced to walk them back after automakers complained, and the stock market took a plunge. The U.S. itself spent $5.6 billion on oil and gas from Venezuela in 2024.

23andMe Files for Bankruptcy, Fueling Fears for Millions of Customers’ DNA Data
MAJOR MUTATION
DNA testing firm 23andMe filed for bankruptcy and announced the resignation of its CEO on Sunday. Anne Wojcicki, the departing chief executive who remains on the company’s board, said in a statement that filing for bankruptcy is “the best path forward to maximize the value of the business.” Over 15 million people have submitted their DNA to the company for testing, making a colossal database of human genetics that could now be sold to the highest bidder in bankruptcy proceedings. “Any buyer will be required to comply with applicable law with respect to the treatment of customer data,” the company, which has previously been infiltrated by hackers, said in a news release. Last week, California’s Attorney General Rob Bonta urged 23andMe users to “delete your data and destroy any samples of genetic material held by the company” after the business “publicly reported that it is in financial distress.” Wojcicki, who co-founded the company in 2006, said she was “disappointed” by the bankruptcy plan and that her previous bid to take private ownership of the company had been rejected. She now seeks to “secure the company’s assets during the restructuring process” so that she can “be in the best position to pursue the company as an independent bidder,” she announced on X.

Joe and Jill Biden Enjoy Date Night on Broadway After Being Given Cold Shoulder by Democrats
SHAKESPEAREAN TRAGEDY
Joe Biden appeared in public for the first time since stepping down as president on Sunday, attending the Broadway premier of Othello starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal with wife Jill. Donning a tuxedo while the former first lady wore a teal green dress, the former president gave a quick wave as he was ushered out of his motorcade and into the Barrymore Theatre for a “date night” in Manhattan. “Riveting… brilliant … BRAVO!” Jill wrote in an Instagram caption alongside a photo of the pair posing inside the theatre following the show’s conclusion. The Bidens were also spotted backstage after the performance, shaking hands with the cast while posing for a picture with the play’s two leads. It comes just days after the former president was given the cold shoulder by Democratic staffers after offering his services to help with campaigning and fundraising efforts. “Joe Biden should enjoy retirement at the beach in Rehoboth,” a Democratic insider told the New York Post last week. “No voter wants to hear from him. He is delusional and arrogant to think that he can be a value add to the Democratic Party. We need to move on from the era of Joe Biden and embrace new, younger leadership.”
