![Moore stated that she was "aware of a 9 year old, in [her] area, pregnant" and she was struggling to reconcile her feelings about the case with her religious beliefs. Moore also added that her mother was raped at the age of 13 and had her at 14. "So I do struggle with it. I know we got to protect our children, but this point right now, I cannot vote yes,"
Boyd, who authored the bill, also mentioned she was aware of a "Louisiana girl who was raped and gave birth at 13 and a 9-year-old girl who became pregnant after being sexually assaulted."
:while it's true that Louisiana lawmakers rejected a bill that would have allowed abortion in cases of child rape, there was no confirmed evidence that the decision directly affected a specific 9-year-old. Moore mentioned being aware of a case during the hearing but provided no details, and we were unable to independently verify the claim. As of this writing, Louisiana abortion law does not include an exception for rape or incest.

![Trump on March 15 became the first president since World War II to invoke the AEA, which authorizes him to summarily remove “natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects” of a “hostile nation or government” when there is “declared war” against it or when it has “perpetrated, attempted, or threatened against the territory of the United States” an “invasion or predatory incursion.” In a controversial and novel use of the power, Trump declared the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) had committed or attempted an “invasion” or “predatory incursion” such that any member of the group was summarily removable under the Act.
The administration asserted that the gang constituted a “hybrid criminal state” for purposes of invoking the AEA.
The court rejected the administration’s interpretation of the AEA and emphasized that proper invocation of the power requires an executive order that includes “sufficient factual statements” and other references enabling courts to “determine whether the conduct and events satisfy the conditions that support the invocation of the statute.”
“This Court need not look beyond the four corners of [the president’s Proclamation] to find its severe deficiencies in comporting with the AEA,” Briones wrote. “Even accepting every assertion in [the Proclamation] as true, it does not rise to meet the plain, ordinary meanings of the statutory terms.”
Following a brief overview on interpreting the language of a centuries-old statute, Briones explained that the terms “invasion” and “predatory incursion,” as used in the statute, require a “militarized effort against, and militarized intrusion into, the territory of the United States with the specific purpose of conquering or obtaining control over territory.” The alleged actions of TdA, according to the judge, were well outside the definitions of those terms.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xkfwokkr3dk72qdeuqujg27s/bafkreia5uolhzhfygljpry3gajgsaoy2uftdcmixqbvwja4ni4obxvmv3e)
![Trump wildly claims people who can't do elementary school level math being admitted to Harvard
Falyn Stempler
U.S. President Donald Trump made a degrading remark about Harvard University after it slammed the administration with a lawsuit.
During a Friday afternoon press conference, during which the president signed a fresh round of executive orders relating to commercial nuclear energy, Trump issued a scathing attack on Harvard after a reporter asked about Homeland Security's move to ban the university from accepting international students, which prompted the lawsuit.
"I do [think Harvard should accept the 'best and brightest'] but a lot of the people need remedial math," Trump told reporters Friday afternoon. "How can someone who can’t add get into Harvard, and then you see those same people picketing and screaming at the U.S. We don’t want troublemakers here."
The ban comes amid the Trump administration's crackdown on international students protesting against the Gaza war.
What could Trump be referring to?
Harvard's Math Department launched a pilot introductory course to help improve student's foundation algebra skills, Harvard’s Director of Introductory Math Brendan A. Kelly told The Harvard Crimson, Harvard's student newspaper, in September 2024. He cited the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns for the recent learning gap and hoped the new course, which ran in tandem with two established math classes, would boost students' skills and confidence.
“The last two years, we saw students who were in Math MA and faced a challenge that was unreasonable given the supports we had in the course," he told The Harvard Crimson. "So we wanted to think about, ‘How can we create a course that really helps students step up to their aspirations?’”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xkfwokkr3dk72qdeuqujg27s/bafkreihazrpctzw6iod3nolxno3edogektyfx7xixmdwbjmeqhtnasi724)
![Pete Hegseth Violated First Amendment at Pentagon, Says West Point Veteran, “He Should Be Fired”
Phillip Kolb
Army combat veteran and On Democracy blogger Fred Wellman reported “breaking news from sources in the Pentagon” today on X. Wellman wrote: “[Secretary of Defense] Hegseth has invited what appears to be the entire Pentagon workforce to a Christian prayer & worship service in the official Pentagon auditorium during duty hours in violation of the First Amendment and military regulations”
Wellman added: “An email went out at 9:00 AM today to a wide distribution that might be the entire Pentagon email list to attend a Christian service from the Office of the Secretary of Defense. This breaks the Establishment Clause and military regulations for prolestitizing [sic] in the government”
The Establishment clause prohibits the government from “establishing” a religion to avoid “excessive entanglement between church and state”
[NOTE: For a historical examination of the Establishment Clause, including its history in the Supreme Court and its effect on military regulations, see Liberty of Conscience: In Defense of America’s Tradition of Religious Equality by University of Chicago Law and Ethics Professor Martha Nussbaum]
As Wellman writes on his Substack: “The leader of the entire United States military just sent out an invite to share his personal religion with all of his subordinates from an official government account, in a government building, attended by government employees on government time. That, my friends, is ‘entanglement between church and state'”
Wellman contends: “Hegseth just asked thousands of service members and civilians that all work for him to join him at a celebration of his religion during duty hours. That isn’t a suggestion to most of them. It’s an order to join his religion”
He added, “How do atheists feel? What do Jewish service members do? Attend a Christian service or skip their bosses [sic] big event? What if you are Muslim, etc etc”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xkfwokkr3dk72qdeuqujg27s/bafkreid2zfss7ybqd4d37kok2ecski3qbeavanmy4tne2n74sue3z6mity)
![More than one MAGA supporter has criticized Wellman’s news by noting that it was an invitation and attendance is not mandatory.
Graham Allen, who reportedly manages the DoD’s social media, replied to Wellman’s post in a similar vein: “[Wellman] leaves out this prayer service was VOLUNTARY! Only a truly EVIL/DEMONIC individual would find issue with a VOLUNTARY prayer service at the Pentagon!!”
Wellman responded to Allen’s post: “We were all taught has [sic] young officers that there are no ‘suggestions’ from Commanders. When a leader suggests or invites people to something its [sic] an implied task. To do so during duty hours in the military’s headquarters only makes it worse. I know the law. I did 22 years in the Army and graduated from West Point. I learned some stuff.”
Wellman added of Hegseth: “As a former officer he should know better. As a Cabinet official he should be fired.”
Retired U.S. Army Lt Col. Alexander Vindman, former Director for European Affairs for the U.S. National Security Council, responded to Wellman’s report: “‘There are no suggestions from commanders to subordinates.’ Hegseth continues to propagate Christian white nationalism, while undermining the separation of church and state and the norms of civil-military relations.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xkfwokkr3dk72qdeuqujg27s/bafkreifpfyr2esencwl75xi5ezjemsx4wu63ehp4v5twrfqabh4objvm6u)
