 | Wednesday, March 26, 2025 | | | Good Morning! On this day in 1804, President Thomas Jefferson received a giant loaf of bread, called the mammoth loaf, to accompany the remnants of a 1,200-pound block of cheese sent by women from Massachusetts. Today is National Little Red Wagon Day, honoring that iconic first utility vehicle for kids needing to drag stuff around (including other kids). It didn't corner well at high speeds (watch those passengers fly!), but it was essential. Did you own one? Let us know in today's Poll below.

National Security Adviser Mike Waltz said he took "full responsibility" for mistakenly adding Jeffrey Goldberg, The Atlantic's editor-in-chief, to a Signal group chat where top officials discussed upcoming airstrikes in Yemen. Democrats have called for the resignations of Waltz and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over the leak, but Trump said the error had “no impact at all” on the operation and that he was standing behind Waltz. Intelligence chiefs Tulsi Gabbard and John Ratcliffe, questioned on the issue by Senate Democrats Tuesday, said they didn't share any classified material in the chat.
White House and Pentagon leaders also denied accusations that Hegseth shared military secrets. Hegseth, traveling in Hawaii, attacked Goldberg as a “deceitful journalist.” | Russia Probe Files to be Released Donald Trump signed an executive order Tuesday directing the FBI to declassify all documents related to the 2016 "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into his campaign's alleged ties to Russia. Calling the FBI investigation a "total weaponization," Trump said Americans deserve to see the evidence and predicted the media would avoid it. The FBI launched the investigation in 2016, and special counsel Robert Mueller later found no criminal conspiracy but stopped short of clearing Trump of obstruction. The declassification follows years of contention, with Special Counsel John Durham's 2023 report concluding the FBI lacked evidence to start the probe and failed to act on intelligence suggesting the probe was based on a Clinton campaign effort to link Trump to Russia. | Mapped: Every State's Income Tax Since 2000, 23 U.S. states have cut their top income tax rates, with Iowa leading the way—slashing its top rate by more than 5 percentage points. See a state-by-state breakdown. Tennessee and New Hampshire went further, scrapping income taxes altogether and joining six other states with no income tax. Thirteen states and Washington, D.C., raised rates, with Washington state's 7% capital gains tax (counted as income) marking the biggest jump. On the high end, California (13.3%), Hawai'i (11%), and New York (10.9%) still impose steep top rates—California's climbs to 14.4% when payroll levies are included.
