Russian key oil terminals are struggling with reduced capacity following ongoing attacks. As of now, oil production has dropped significantly, which could signal deeper economic repercussions for a country heavily dependent on oil revenues. (5/6)

Of course US-Iran negotiations have gone nowhere. The Iranians are prioritizing national interests. The Americans are prioritizing presidential image management. My latest in @foreignpolicy.com:

My Mom hadn’t had anything to eat or drink for days before she died. Apparently at like 3am on the day she passed, she randomly woke up and asked a nurse for a piece of cake. And that’s the most ‘my Mom’ thing she could have possibly done. She was barely alive, but still asked for cake. 😅🥲

I noted the day of the SCOTUS decision that JB Pritzker IMMEDIATELY moved to make this point, by demanding a refund for IL. And State refunds may be the best way to politicize how Trump created the worst of all worlds. But Elizabeth Warren is, predictably, focused on it as well.

First slide of an Instagram carousel summarizing Heather Cox Richardson's Letters from an American, April 20, 2026. A curly-haired dog is pictured in a teal circle on the left. Text reads: “Today, Heather explains how FBI Director Kash Patel's increasingly erratic behavior — marked by alleged mismanagement, loyalty-driven purges, and a $250 million defamation suit against The Atlantic — reveals a national security apparatus being reshaped around personal fealty to Trump rather than the rule of law.”

Even in war—specifically amid escalating rhetoric around conflict with Iran—international humanitarian law (including distinction, proportionality, necessity, and humanity) still applies, and ignoring these principles risks both moral failure and strategic harm.

A looming storm is forecast to drop more than 2 feet of snow in parts of the Sierra, prompting the weather service to issue winter storm warnings. It’s the second round of winter storm warnings this month in the Sierra, a rarity for April. Snow drought won't be wiped out, but this will help some.
