Pair of Democrat lawmakers slam 'blockade of fuel' to Cuba, 'economic bombing' after visit to island
Reps. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., and Jonathan Jackson, D-Ill., said after a congressional delegation returned from Cuba that U.S. economic restrictions on the island represented an "illegal U.S. blockade of fuel" and "effectively an economic bombing of the infrastructure of the country."
The lawmakers, following their five-day delegation to Cuba, spoke out against what they described as a humanitarian crisis on the island that they argue is linked to the U.S. embargo.
"The illegal U.S. blockade of fuel to Cuba—90 miles south of the United States—adds to the longest embargo in world history and is causing untold suffering to the Cuban people," the lawmakers said in a statement on Sunday. "The United States prevented a single drop of oil from entering Cuba for over three months. This is cruel collective punishment—effectively an economic bombing of the infrastructure of the country—that has produced permanent damage. It must stop immediately."

"We witnessed firsthand premature babies in incubators, weighing just two pounds, who are at tremendous risk because their ventilators and incubators cannot function without electricity," they continued. "Children cannot attend school because there is no fuel for them or their teachers to travel. Cancer patients cannot receive lifesaving treatments because of lack of medications. There is a water shortage because there is little electricity to pump water. Businesses have closed. Families cannot keep food refrigerated, and food production on the island has dropped to just 10 percent of the people’s needs."
This comes as U.S. President Donald Trump has escalated his pressure campaign on Cuba in recent weeks, calling the island a "failed nation" and suggesting that "Cuba is next" following recent U.S. military actions in Venezuela and Iran.
The trip came after Jayapal and Rep. Gregory Meeks, D-N.Y., introduced legislation to block federal funds for military action against Cuba without congressional approval.
Jayapal and Jackson said they spoke with families, religious leaders, entrepreneurs, civil society organizations, the Cuban government, Latin American and African ambassadors, humanitarian aid organizations and Cubans across the political spectrum, including dissidents.
"Across all sectors, there is agreement: this illegal blockade must end immediately. We do not believe that the majority of Americans would want this kind of cruelty and inhumanity to continue in our name," the lawmakers said.
The pair added that the Cuban government "has sent many signals that this is a new moment for the country."
"While we were there, President Diaz-Canel released over 2,000 prisoners. The Cuban government has begun to liberalize its economy with significant reforms, including allowing Cuban American entrepreneurs to invest in private businesses in Cuba. Entrepreneurship has grown substantially, with small- and medium-sized private businesses now comprising large parts of the economy," the statement said.

"Significantly, the Cuban government has invited in the FBI to conduct an independent investigation of a lethal speedboat shooting," it continued. "The remaining obstacles to progress in Cuba now rest with the United States changing our outdated, Cold War-era policy of coercive economic measures and military pressures against Cuba."
Jayapal and Jackson went on to say that "true reform will only come from charting a new course."
"The United States and Cuba must immediately enter into real negotiations that provide for the dignity and freedom of the Cuban people and the tremendous benefits to the American people that will accrue from a real collaboration between our two countries," they concluded.
New Hampshire suspect who shot officer and triggered massive manhunt killed in police gunfight
The suspect who allegedly shot a New Hampshire police officer has been killed in a gunfight with authorities, officials said Sunday.
Matthew J. Masse, 38, allegedly opened fire on family members and the responding officer Saturday afternoon in Raymond, sparking a massive manhunt that included road closures and a shelter-in-place order.
"There was an exchange of gunfire between Mr. Masse with his rifle and the officers," the state Attorney General’s Office said. "Following that exchange, Mr. Masse was found deceased by officers when they approached his location."
An autopsy has been scheduled for early this week to confirm his cause and manner of death, the office added.
The incident erupted shortly after 1:30 p.m., when Masse reportedly shot his relatives with a long gun and then fired at responding police. A Nottingham Police Department officer was hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, officials said.
The suspect — described as a middle-aged white male who is 5 feet, 11 inches tall and weighs 202 pounds — reportedly had active felony warrants for attempted arson at his family's home on Thursday.
After the shooting, Masse fled into a wooded area, triggering a large-scale manhunt, officials said, and K-9 units were deployed and officers were "working feverishly with other agencies" in an all-hands-on-deck search.
New Hampshire State Police found Masse around 10:06 p.m., hours after residents near Ham Road had been told to shelter in place, authorities said.
During the attempted arrest, an exchange of gunfire broke out. Authorities later found Masse dead at the scene, with his long gun recovered nearby.
No other officers or civilians were injured, and authorities said there is no further threat to the public.
The names of the officers involved are being withheld pending formal interviews, per protocol.

Baby among 3 dead in holiday horror as Easter egg hunt turns deadly
Three people were killed, including a 10-month-old girl, after high winds toppled a tree in Germany during an Easter egg hunt on Sunday morning, according to authorities.
Around 50 people from a nearby residential facility for new mothers, pregnant women and children were attending the egg hunt in a wooded area near the town of Satrupholm at about 11 a.m. when a 100-foot tree fell on top of them, police said in a statement.
Four people became pinned under the tree, police said.

First responders arrived at the scene and first began treating a 21-year-old woman and a 16-year-old girl, but both died at the scene.
The woman's 10-month-old daughter also later died at the hospital.
An 18-year-old woman sustained serious injuries and was rushed to the hospital in a helicopter.
The residential facility is part of the state-funded child welfare system, supporting pregnant women and new mothers who need help, according to its website.
Grief counselors were sent to the scene after the fatal incident on Sunday.
Pictures from the scene showed several Easter eggs scattered on the ground as two of the victims were seen covered in white sheets.
The German weather service had put the area under a high winds warning.

Officials from the Schleswig-Holstein region, where the facility is located, said they were "deeply shaken" by the Easter tragedy.
"Our thoughts are with the family members of the dead, with the injured, and with everyone who had to experience this terrible occurrence," regional Governor Daniel Günther, Interior Minister Magdalena Finke, and Youth and Families Minister Aminata Touré said in a joint statement to the dpa news agency.

Artemis II astronaut marvels at 'beauty of creation' in Easter message from deep space
Artemis II astronaut Victor Glover reflected on "the beauty of creation" as he delivered a message of faith and unity from deep space this weekend.
Glover, the pilot of the historic lunar mission, was asked by CBS News Saturday about observing the Easter holiday while traveling away from Earth.
"I don't have anything prepared. I'm glad you brought it up, though; I think these observances are important," Glover responded.
Invoking the Bible and humanity's place in the cosmos, Glover shared his perspective on the uniqueness of Earth.
ARTEMIS II ASTRONAUTS FACE TOILET TROUBLE AS THEY HEAD TOWARD THE MOON
"As we are so far from Earth and looking at the beauty of creation, I think, for me, one of the really important personal perspectives that I have up here is I can really see the Earth as one thing," Glover said. "When I read the Bible and I look at all the amazing things that were done for us... You guys are talking to us because we're in a spaceship really far from earth, but you’re on a spaceship called Earth that was created to give us a place to live in the universe and the cosmos."
Glover emphasized how precious human life is while marveling at the planet's place in the universe.
"Maybe the distance we are from you makes you think what we're doing is special, but we're the same distance from you. And I'm trying to tell you — just trust me — you are special," he said. "In all of this emptiness — this is a whole bunch of nothing, this thing we call the universe — you have this oasis, this beautiful place that we get to exist together."
ASTRONAUT VICTOR GLOVER PRAISED FOR SAYING MOON MISSION IS 'HUMAN HISTORY,' NOT 'BLACK HISTORY'
He said the holiday was an opportunity to reflect on a shared responsibility for unity, regardless of religious background.
"I think, as we go into Easter Sunday, thinking about all the cultures all around the world, whether you celebrate it or not, whether you believe in God or not, this is an opportunity for us to remember where we are, who we are, and that we are the same thing, and that we've gotta get through this together."
The Artemis II crew includes NASA Commander Reid Wiseman, Pilot Victor Glover, Mission Specialist Christina Koch, and Canadian Space Agency Mission Specialist Jeremy Hansen. The team is making humanity’s first journey to the moon since 1972, following a flight path similar to that of Apollo 13.
On Sunday, the crew sent additional Easter greetings and revealed they had celebrated by hiding "eggs" around the spacecraft.

"We wanted to take a minute to commemorate the holiday that we have at this time of year, something that many religions and many cultures hold dear," Koch said. "We did hide a few eggs around the cabin. They were the dehydrated scrambled egg variety, but we were all pretty happy with them."
Hansen also shared a message, emphasizing love as a universal value.
"Happy Easter everyone," he said. "We're talking up here as a crew and we did want to send a special Easter message on this day and, no matter your faith or religion, for me the teachings of Jesus were always a very simple truth of love, universal love."
Warnock likens pro-Trump Christian leaders to those who used Scripture to defend slavery
Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., compared Christian leaders who say their faith supports President Donald Trump to religious people who justified slavery in America.
During an interview with CNN's Jake Tapper that aired Sunday, Warnock, who serves as the senior pastor at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, was asked several questions about how his Christian faith influences his politics.
After saying he prayed for the president but didn't endorse his "ungodly" administration, Tapper asked the Democratic Senator what he thought about pastors who go to the White House to show their support for Trump and believe he was put in office with a divine purpose.
"There are a lot of religious leaders who go to the White House and not only pray for the President, but make a show of suggesting that he was chosen by God for this mission," Tapper said.
BATTLEGROUND DEM CANDIDATE LINKED PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF FAITH TO POLITICAL VIOLENCE IN 2023 SPEECH
"Yeah, they're wrong," Warnock responded, before comparing these leaders to those who skewed Scripture to justify American slavery.
"And there were Christians who thought that slavery was, you know, somehow God-like—American chattel slavery—and they justified it. And they used Scriptures to support their position," he continued. "It just so happens that I’m the product of a countervailing tradition that was literally born fighting for freedom. That understood that God didn't create us to be slaves. That’s why the Black Church was emerged."
Warnock went on to say the Black Church was a church that began by "correcting the American heresy that somehow tried to reconcile the faith of Jesus to slavery."
During the interview, Warnock said he prayed for Trump because he needed "a lot of prayer."
He also said the president needed to be held accountable for his "bigotry" and "cruelty that he is unleashing on American streets through his version of ICE."
"I have to be honest about what he’s doing," he told Tapper. "His kind of unabashed, unvarnished bigotry; the cruelty that he is unleashing on American streets through his version of ICE. Those things have to be condemned. And so, for me, prayer and prophetic speech, which holds power accountable—those two things go hand-in-hand. I am not about to be the chaplain, blessing that which is ungodly and unjust."
Tapper also pressed Warnock on how he responds to conservative parishioners at his church who disagree with his political views on immigration and abortion.

"I'm sure you encounter quite a bit, African American members of your church, Baptists who are more socially conservative than you, who say, 'I'm with you on the hunger, I'm with you on the kindness, but Laken Riley was murdered by an undocumented immigrant and I see nothing compassionate about having him in this country,'" Tapper said. "Or they talk about abortion, or other things that maybe are not in line with your politics."
"How do you confront that?" he asked.
"Oh, we're Baptist," Warnock responded, before saying he welcomes a variety of viewpoints at his church .
"We could all use a little bit more grace these days," he added. "Grace for people who don‘t share our point of view."
When reached for comment, White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told Fox News Digital that, "President Trump made a campaign promise to fight for religious freedom, and he has quickly secured major, commonsense victories for people of faith – from restoring biological truth to protecting parents’ fundamental rights and keeping men out of women’s sports."
Dawn Staley gives classy answer after Geno Auriemma question following national title loss: 'It's UCLA's day'
South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley was disappointed how the Gamecocks’ season ended on Sunday afternoon in Phoenix, a 79-51 loss to the UCLA Bruins in the national championship game.
During her post-game interview, Staley was asked about what happened in the Gamecocks’ prior Final Four matchup against UConn, where she and head coach Geno Auriemma had a tense exchange after South Carolina advanced to the title game for the third year in a row.
Rather than hash out more of her thoughts, Staley had a classy response.

"I don’t want – this is UCLA’s day, right? Let’s keep it UCLA, them winning the national championship," Staley told reporters, via The Athletic. "… We’re not going to damper UCLA’s day with it."
Before this national title contest, Staley was spotted having a cordial experience greeting UCLA Bruins head coach Cori Close -- a much different experience than how Friday night ended with Auriemma.
After the Gamecocks defeated the Huskies, Staley and Auriemma went viral with their interaction at midcourt, where Auriemma appeared to enrage Staley before walking off.
This time, Staley and Close hugged and shared a few words. During the exchange, Staley "looked around afterward like, ‘see??’", per NBC Sports.
Staley was showing a bit of sarcasm, as she noted Auriemma didn’t shake her hand before the Final Four tipped off between the two teams on Friday night.
After the Gamecocks’ victory over the Huskies, Staley was asked what exactly happened with Auriemma, though she tried to explain her focus in helping her team lock in for the national title game. If they won, it would’ve been the fourth national championship in the last 10 years for South Carolina.
"For me, no distractions at this time. I'm concentrating on winning a national championship, that’s it," Staley said at the time. "That’s a little disheartening. This is sports, sometimes things like this happen. Continue to focus on my team and ability to advance in this tournament and hopefully win another national championship."
UCONN'S UNDEFEATED SEASON CRUMBLES AS SOUTH CAROLINA GETS SWEET REVENGE AGAINST REIGNING CHAMPS
Auriemma later released a statement, apologizing for his behavior after the loss.
"There’s no excuse for how I handled the end of the game vs. South Carolina. It’s unlike what I do and what our standard is here at Connecticut," the Hall of Fame coach said in a statement on Saturday. "I want to apologize to the staff and the team at South Carolina. It was uncalled for in how I reacted. The story should be how well South Carolina played, and I don’t want my actions to detract from that. I’ve had a great relationship with their staff, and I sincerely want to apologize to them."
Staley added she had "no idea" why Auriemma was angry after the game, though she guessed perhaps he was ticked off by the lack of handshake before the game on his own end. Either way, Staley was moving forward.
"I don’t know what he came with after the game, but, hey, sometimes things get heated. We move on," she said.
For UCLA, it was the first time the women’s basketball program has won the national title, as their emotional celebration ensued following the game in Phoenix.

Savannah Guthrie's Easter message reveals anguish as mom missing 63 days
"Today" show host Savannah Guthrie used an Easter message to reflect on faith, doubt and uncertainty as her mother, Nancy Guthrie, remains missing after 63 days.
The message was shared by Good Shepherd New York during its digital Easter gathering on YouTube, where Guthrie delivered a deeply reflective message about navigating grief and unanswered questions during what she described as a difficult season.
Nancy Guthrie, 84, was last seen after she was believed to have been taken from her bedroom in northern Tucson, Arizona, around 2 a.m. on Feb. 1. Responding officers found a thin trail of blood droplets leading from the front door to the edge of the driveway. Her back doors were propped open, and a doorbell camera was missing.
Investigators later recovered home security footage showing a masked man on the doorstep, who has not been identified. The trail of evidence appeared to end at the driveway, and her whereabouts remain unknown.
NANCY GUTHRIE UPDATE: RETIRED K9 OFFICER SAYS DECISION NOT TO USE CADAVER DOGS ‘DEFIES LOGIC’
Guthrie acknowledged that Easter’s promise of hope and new life can feel distant as she faces the uncertainty surrounding her mother’s disappearance.
"There are moments in which that promise seems irretrievably far away, when life itself seems far harder than death," Guthrie said. "These moments of deep disappointment with God, the feeling of utter abandonment."
Guthrie said that in her recent "season of trial," she questioned whether Jesus experienced the same kind of uncertainty she now feels, particularly the pain of not knowing what comes next or why suffering is unfolding.
NANCY GUTHRIE DISAPPEARANCE SPARKED HARROWING 12-HOUR ODYSSEY FOR SAVANNAH
"I have wondered – I have questioned – whether Jesus really ever experienced this particular wound that I feel, this grievous and uniquely cruel injury of not knowing, of uncertainty and confusion and answers withheld," she said. "In those darkest moments I have thought, bitterly and perhaps irreverently, that I have stumbled upon a feeling that Jesus did not know."
She said her perspective began to shift as she reflected on the period between the crucifixion and resurrection, a span she described as often overlooked but central to understanding faith in moments of uncertainty.
"After Jesus died, after he breathed his last, what did he actually know?" Guthrie said. "Did he think his time in the grave would be a day or two or a thousand years? In the grave, does his agony seem indefinite to him? That torment of uncertainty? The way indefinite pain can feel eternal? Perhaps he did know this feeling after all."
Guthrie said that realization helped her reframe her own experience, describing life as existing in a kind of "meantime" — a period marked by waiting, unanswered questions and the absence of clear resolution.
She said that in those moments, people can feel unsure, lost, abandoned, disappointed and forgotten, even as faith calls them to trust in a future they cannot yet see.
Despite that struggle, Guthrie said her faith remains rooted in the belief that God is present even without immediate answers, offering comfort not through certainty, but through presence.
"It is the darkness that makes this morning’s light so magnificent, so blindingly beautiful," Guthrie said. "It is all the brighter because it is so desperately needed."
"So I close my eyes this morning and I feel the sunshine," she continued. "I see a bright vision of the day when heaven and earth pass away because they are one on earth as it is in heaven."
"When we celebrate today, this is what we celebrate, and I celebrate, too," she said. "I still believe. And so I say with conviction, happy Easter."
Ex-CIA station chief reveals how agency exploited Iranian communication channels during airman rescue
Former CIA station chief Dan Hoffman said on "The Sunday Briefing" that a reported agency deception campaign may have helped draw Iranian forces away from a missing U.S. airman, offering new insight into the mission that culminated in a daring rescue behind enemy lines.
It was reported that the CIA attempted to deceive the Iranians into believing the U.S. was gearing up for a maritime rescue, Hoffman said, when in reality, the airman was exfiltrated from the mountains.
TRUMP VOWS US WILL STRIKE IRAN’S POWER PLANTS, BRIDGES IF STRAIT OF HORMUZ IS NOT REOPENED
The CIA also assisted in tracking both the missing airman and enemy forces, he said.
"The CIA was there to track [the airman's] location... And then at the same time, the CIA is tracking Iranian security forces, their movements, their efforts to find and fix the location of our airman. And then, at the same time, running this deception operation, an extraordinary operation."
INSIDE THE DARING RESCUE OF AIRMAN BEHIND ENEMY LINES: HOW CIA ASSISTED WITH 'DECEPTION CAMPAIGN'
"I've heard it referred to as looking for a needle in a haystack. I think it's more like a needle in a stack of needles. Extraordinarily difficult," said Hoffman.
His comments follow the rescue early Sunday morning of a U.S. Air Force Weapons System Officer (WSO) who had ejected from his F-15E fighter jet over Iran. The WSO spent roughly 36 hours in hiding. Hoffman said he would need to rely on the skills he learned at the military's Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape (SERE) school.
On the intelligence side, Hoffman said the strategy could have been much simpler. The CIA just needed to drop the false information where they knew Iran would hear it.
"The CIA would have looked to find those channels of communication that we know we can exploit that the Iranian security force are listening to. Iran has a... pretty developed cyber capability. And what we would have done is simply supplied some information there, some of it true, to establish the bona fides of the channel that we were using, and then this deception operation would have been run in that channel," Hoffman said.
Painter sues Bill Belichick over injuries allegedly suffered while working at his home
North Carolina Tar Heels football coach Bill Belichick was sued on Thursday over an alleged incident that occurred at his Massachusetts home in June 2024.
Painter Andrew Jackson sued Forty Five Fair Street LLC, a company managed by Belichick, in Nantucket Superior Court. Jackson said in his lawsuit that "construction practices created an unsafe work area for workers at the premises" and, because of that, he suffered injuries after a fall.

"As a direct and proximate result of the fall, plaintiff sustained serious bodily injuries including a severe right ankle injury, together with pain, disability, medical expenses, lost wages, and other consequential damages," the lawsuit stated.
The filing added that Jackson received workers’ compensation benefits after the fall but "retains his rights to pursue this third-party negligence action against non-employer responsible parties."
The lawsuit said that Belichick’s company should have made sure the construction site was in a safe-working condition.

"Defendant breached its duties by, among other things: a. causing, permitting, or allowing unsafe conditions to exist at the premises; b. failing to maintain the work area in a reasonably safe condition; c. failing to inspect the premises adequately; d. failing to remedy hazardous conditions it knew or should have known about; e. failing to warn Plaintiff of dangerous conditions; and f. otherwise acting negligently in the ownership, operation, management, supervision, maintenance, and control of the premises."
Jackson is seeking nearly $300,000, according to the Nantucket Current, which first reported the lawsuit.
Fox News Digital reached out to Belichick’s representatives for comment.
Belichick bought the Nantucket property for $4.8 million in 2024, according to Boston.com.

Baena has been carving out his own path — from acting roles, including the 2024 action thriller "Gunner," to landing a Men’s Health cover — while navigating inevitable comparisons to his father.
"It's been a huge growth year of me finding out who I am and really being secure … confident … no matter what the challenges are, what the comparisons are," Baena previously told Fox News Digital.
Baena added, "The message that I wanted to get across was, there’s a lot of people out there with very accomplished parents … and it’s scary. It’s scary to get compared to these giants and to have the feeling like you need to live up to these expectations."
