#10 Multiple Outages at X Caused by ‘Massive Cyberattack,’ Musk Claims - Max Zahn for ABC News, Nick Sortor (community note), Robby Starbuck (community note), Alex Jones, Doge Designer, and Gen Michael Flynn/Elon Musk (community note) on X
Multiple outages suffered Monday by the social media platform X were the result of a “massive cyberattack,” claimed Elon Musk, the company's owner. “We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved,” Musk claimed in a post on X. Musk elaborated on the claim later in the afternoon on Monday on Fox Business' "Kudlow," suggesting that the attack may have been linked to Ukraine. "Well, we don't; we're not sure exactly what happened, but there was a massive cyber attack to try to bring down the X system with IP addresses originating in the Ukraine area," Musk said...
#9 Seattle Cybertruck Fire: Several Tesla Trucks Torched as Attacks and Protests Against Billionaire Elon Musk Become ‘More Violent' - Isabella Boneham for National World, Amuse, Kevin Dahlgren, Kristen Meg, and Stonk King on X
The fire broke out at around 11 pm on Sunday night (9 March). Firefighters worked quickly to contain the flames, bringing the situation under control by 1 a.m. Monday and preventing further damage beyond the four affected electric trucks. Once the flames were out, SFD’s Energy Response Team was called in to assess any lingering risks from the Cybertrucks’ lithium-ion batteries, according to a report from Seattle’s King5. Independent journalist Jonathan Choe, who was at the scene filming, asked a firefighter if arson was suspected. The firefighter responded, “It’s too early to tell.” As the deadline to avert a partial government shutdown approaches and President Donald Trump urges Republicans to support passage of a funding measure, Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., has declared that he will oppose the proposal. "Unless I get a lobotomy Monday that causes me to forget what I’ve witnessed the past 12 years, I’ll be a NO on the CR this week. It amazes me that my colleagues and many of the public fall for the lie that we will fight another day," Massie declared in a Sunday post on X. President Donald Trump has urged Republicans to pass the measure... President Donald Trump has received pushback from Republicans after calling for Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie to be voted out of office. In a Monday post on Truth Social, the president said he would "lead the charge" in ousting Massie after the GOP lawmaker announced he would not support the Trump-backed government funding bill. Newsweek has contacted Massie's office for comment via email. House Republicans are slated to vote Tuesday on a continuing resolution that would fund the government at current levels through September and prevent a looming shutdown. Due to the GOP's razor-thin majority in the House, Massie's opposition could prove crucial. Speaker Mike Johnson can afford to lose only one Republican vote to pass the measure presuming all 215 Democrats vote "no." Texas authorities are investigating after an InfoWars reporter was killed in Austin, Texas, on Sunday night. InfoWars founder Alex Jones announced on Monday that one of his reporters, Jamie White, was "brutally murdered" around midnight. FOX 7 Austin reported that the homicide, which was Austin's eighth murder of 2025, took place in the 2300 block of Douglas Street in South Austin, a residential neighborhood.

FBI Director Kash Patel is working "aggressively" to comply ahead of schedule with congressional document requests in an effort to follow through on his commitment for the bureau to provide transparency to the American people, Fox News Digital has learned. On Friday, the FBI sent a letter to the House Judiciary Committee notifying the panel that it was handing over a tranche of documents pursuant to a subpoena from Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio. Fox News Digital has learned that the records shared by the FBI included more than 400 pages on topics the committee had long been seeking, dating back to the Biden administration, relating to topics such as former Attorney General Merrick Garland’s school board memo and the Jan. 6 pipe bomb investigation... Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced Monday a security clearance review that resulted in the revocations of security clearances for dozens of current and former officials. Gabbard said in a social media post that the security clearance purge targeted top aides to former President Joe Biden, former intelligence personnel who called a 2020 effort to expose information from Hunter Biden's laptop "disinformation," and some who were involved in legal cases against President Trump... Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ordered the Food and Drug Administration on Monday to revise its rule allowing food companies to "self-affirm" that its ingredients are safe. "For far too long, ingredient manufacturers and sponsors have exploited a loophole that has allowed new ingredients and chemicals, often with unknown safety data, to be introduced into the U.S. food supply without notification to the FDA or the public," said Secretary Kennedy. "Eliminating this loophole will provide transparency to consumers, help get our nation's food supply back on track by ensuring that ingredients being introduced into foods are safe, and ultimately Make America Healthy Again," Kennedy added... Health and Human Services Secretary (HHS) Robert F. Kennedy Jr. traveled to a Steak ‘n Shake in Florida over the weekend with Fox News host Sean Hannity, days after the company announced it would be cooking its iconic shoestring fries in beef tallow. "Steak ‘n Shake has been great. We're very grateful [to] them for RFK'ing the french fries. They turned me into a verb," he said Monday on "Hannity." In a March 1 post on X, the company said it had officially started cooking with 100% all-natural beef tallow at all of its locations... Canadian snowbirds, take note: a new immigration provision put into effect by the U.S. government may change the way you travel. Foreign nationals visiting the U.S. for more than 30 days will have to register with the government in order to avoid penalties, a shift that could impact the millions of Canadians who head south of the border for warmer climates each year. The new requirements, implemented by the Trump administration and published on the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) website, are part of the U.S. President’s “Protecting the American People Against Invasion” executive order, which was signed on Jan. 20, 2025. It applies to anyone who isn’t a permanent resident...
