Pope says Trump’s threat to destroy Iranian civilization is ‘unacceptable’


ROME — Pope Leo XIV said Tuesday that U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to destroy Iranian civilization was “truly unacceptable” and said any attacks on civilian infrastructure violate international law.

In some of his strongest comments yet against the war, Leo urged Americans and other people of good will to contact their political leaders and congressional representatives to demand they reject war and work for peace.

“Today as we all know there was this threat against all the people of Iran. This is truly unacceptable,” he said as he left his country house in Castel Gandolfo, south of Rome.

He was referring to Trump’s threat that a “whole civilization will die tonight” if Iran fails to meet his latest deadline to strike a deal that includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz.

Leo recalled his Easter appeal for peace and to reject war “especially a war which many people have said is an unjust war, which is continuing to escalate, and which is not resolving anything.”

He invited all people of good will to contact their political leaders and congressional representatives to remind them that attacks on civilian infrastructure are “against international law” and also are a “sign of the hatred, the division, the destruction human beings are capable of, and we all want to work for peace.”

Meryl Streep slams Melania Trump’s fashion choices


Meryl Streep has issued a snide remark about Melania Trump’s clothing, criticizing the “powerful message” that the First Lady had made through her fashion choices.

The 76-year-old actor discussed how people present themselves through fashion during a recent conversation with former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, moderated by filmmaker Greta Gerwig. The Vogue interview comes ahead of the release of The Devil Wears Prada 2, in which Streep reprises her role as magazine editor Miranda Priestley, who is loosely based on Wintour.

During the conversation, Gerwig asked the pair about style, saying that “dressing has always been more nebulous” for women than men. Wintour responded that women don’t need to wear a suit to be powerful, citing female political figures like Michelle Obama and Rama Duwaji, who is married to New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani.

“To be fair, Melania Trump also always looks like herself when she dresses,” Wintour added, causing Streep to jump in and take a swipe at one of Trump’s most controversial looks in 2018: A jacket that read “I Really Don’t Care, Do U?”

“I have so many thoughts about this. I think the most… powerful message that our current first lady sent was in the coat that said ‘I Really Don’t Care, Do U?’ when she was going to see migrant children who were incarcerated,” the actor responded. “All dress is about expressing yourself, but we’re also subject to larger historical and political sweeps of expectation.

“I’m stunned at how women in power have to have bare arms on television while men are covered in shirts and ties or a suit. There’s an apology built into women. They have to show their smallness.”

Trump was pictured wearing the Zara coat – which caused a social media storm – while exiting a plane for a visit to Upbring New Hope Children’s Center in June 2018. At the time, critics slammed the item as insensitive amid heightened tensions along the U.S.-Mexico border. Donald Trump had recently implemented his infamous, hardline immigration policy, which separated hundreds of children from their parents.

The former model later responded to the backlash, saying it was “obvious” the coat’s slogan was not aimed at the youngsters, who were separated from their parents. She claimed the wardrobe choice was “for the people and for the left-wing media who are criticizing me.”

“I want to show them that I don’t care. You could criticize whatever you want to say, but it will not stop me to do what I feel is right,” she said during an interview with ABC News.

She addressed the controversy over the jacket in her 2024 memoir, Melania, claiming the fallout was “just another example of the media’s irresponsible behavior.”

“I was determined … not to let the media’s false narratives affect my mission to help the children and families at the border,” Trump shared in her memoir. “In fact, I decided to let them know that their criticism would never stop me from doing what I feel is right. To make the point, I wore a particular jacket as I boarded the plane, a jacket that quickly became famous.”

She described the stunt as “discreet yet impactful” – however, it backfired. She wrote how her press secretary Stephanie Grisham’s inbox was soon “flooded with urgent emails from top-tier media outlets regarding the jacket.”

Trump’s threat to end Iranian ‘civilization’ sparks uproar on Capitol Hill


Trump warns Iran ‘a whole civilization will die tonight’ as deal deadline looms

KT McFarland, former deputy national security advisor, provides expert analysis on President Trump’s ultimatum to Iran, following his recent “True Social” post. She highlights the strategic importance of recent strikes on Kharg Island, home to critical oil export facilities and military sites, asserting these actions are designed to force a regime change or a new diplomatic agreement within the 12-hour deadline.

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

President Donald Trump’s escalating threats against Iran sparked fierce bipartisan backlash on Capitol Hill, with some lawmakers calling for his removal from office.

Trump warned Tuesday that a “whole civilization will die tonight” unless Iran reopens the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway responsible for one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. 

“I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. “However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”

Some Democratic lawmakers in both chambers immediately called for the president’s impeachment, though it is likely to be a futile effort in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives.

WHY TRUMP’S WAR SPEECH FAILED: DECLARING VICTORY BUT STILL BOMBING IRAN BACK TO THE ‘STONE AGES’

“Trump’s unhinged threats of violence and genocide are inexcusable,” Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., wrote on social media. “My Republican colleagues can’t keep turning a blind eye. He must be stopped and impeached.”

“Sickeningly evil. Donald Trump must be impeached,” Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., said in response to Trump’s message.

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., also called on the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment, characterizing Trump as a “maniac” who must be removed from office.

Under the U.S. Constitution, the vice president and a majority of the cabinet can use the mechanism to remove a president, though the cohort must submit a written letter to Congress stating their rationale. Lawmakers in both chambers would then need to approve the president’s removal with a two-thirds majority — a much higher bar than impeachment and conviction.

Republicans similarly demanded that former President Joe Biden be removed toward the end of his administration.

The White House slammed Democrats’ renewed impeachment push in a statement to Fox News Digital.

“This is pathetic. Democrats have been talking about impeaching President Trump since before he was even sworn into office,” White House spokesman Davis Ingle said. “The Democrats in Congress are deranged, weak, and ineffective, which is why their approval ratings are at historic lows.”

Other Democratic lawmakers stopped short of calling for Trump’s ouster but have advocated for an immediate end to the war and canceling recess to hold a vote to check the president’s war powers in Iran.

TRUMP FIGHTING FIERCE BATTLES, AT HOME AND ABROAD: WHY HE CASUALLY DISMISSES THE CONSEQUENCES

“Each Republican who refuses to join us in voting against this wanton war of choice owns every consequence of whatever the hell this is,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Tuesday. 

Democrats in both chambers are expected to force votes requiring Trump to seek congressional authorization before launching military force against Iran in the coming weeks. However, the House and Senate are not expected to resume session until the week of April 13.

Trump’s latest fiery statement comes after his Easter edict, in which the president reaffirmed his Tuesday deadline in an expletive-filled post and threatened that Iran will be “living in Hell.”

Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., a close ally of Trump’s in the Senate, said he hoped the president was bluffing.

“I am hoping and praying that President Trump is — this really is bluster,” Johnson told John Solomon Reports. “I do not want to see us start blowing up civilian infrastructure. I do not want to see that we are not at war with the Iranian people. We are trying to liberate them.”

Republicans have so far given little pushback to Trump’s war in Iran, with many declining to use the term. And in the Senate, they have blocked several attempts from Democrats to rein in Trump’s war authorities in the region and call back America’s military forces from the conflict.

Some Republicans aren’t completely sold on providing more funding for the conflict, including Sen. John Curtis, R-Utah, until there has been a formal declaration of war approved by Congress.

That moment has not yet come, however, but it may be fast approaching, given that the conflict has now stretched over 39 days. At 60 days, Congress would be able to weigh in.

Not all Republicans shared the same sentiment as Johnson. Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, when asked about the post, said “He’s not wrong.” 

“Let’s put it like that,” Ernst said. “I know the president is really frustrated, and we do want to see the strait opened. It’s not just good for the United States, but it’s good for Europe and so many other countries.”

Nathan Jibulu: Sale Sharks hooker banned for six weeks for biting


Sale Sharks hooker Nathan Jibulu has been banned for six weeks for biting Harlequins prop Will Hobson.

The incident occurred in the 69th minute of Sale’s Champions Cup last-16 win against Quins at the Twickenham Stoop on Saturday.

Law 9.12 states a player “must not physically abuse anyone” and “physical abuse involves biting”.

Jibulu could have been banned for 12 weeks but had his penalty halved.

A disciplinary panel statement said: “Taking into account his guilty plea, timely expression of remorse, his young age and inexperience and his clear disciplinary record, the committee decided to reduce the sanction by the maximum of 50%, before imposing a six-week suspension.”

Sale travel to Leinster for the quarter-finals on Saturday (17:30 BST) after the Dubliners won a 49-31 thriller against Edinburgh.

The Sharks are already without front-row pair Bevan Rodd, who dislocated his shoulder, and Luke Cowan-Dickie, with a suspected broken wrist or forearm, after both went off during the Quins match.

The injuries have also jeopardised their participation in England’s summer tour.

Iran’s UN ambassador takes swipe at Trump in final hours before Strait of Hormuz deadline


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations took a swipe at President Donald Trump on Tuesday hours before Trump’s deadline to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calling one of the president’s posts on Truth Social “deeply irresponsible” and “profoundly alarming.” 

Trump has given the Iranian regime until 8 p.m. ET to reopen the Strait of Hormuz — a key waterway — or face strikes against its power plants and bridges.  

In a post Tuesday morning, Trump said, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again,” and, “I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will.” 

“Today the President of the United States again resorted to language that is not only deeply irresponsible but profoundly alarming, declaring that, quote, ‘the whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back,’ unquote,” Amir-Saeid Iravani said at U.N. headquarters in New York on Tuesday afternoon.

“It is regrettable and alarming that while in full view of the international community, the President of the United States shamelessly and brazenly issues threats to destroy all civilian infrastructure in Iran, including bridges, power plants and energy facilities, by setting a deadline and openly reveals this intent to commit vile crimes and crimes against humanity,” Iravani added. 

The White House, when asked by Fox News Digital for reaction, said, “The Iranian regime has committed egregious human rights abuses against its own citizens for 47 years, just murdered tens of thousands of protestors in January, and has indiscriminately targeted civilians across the region in order to cause as much death as possible throughout this conflict.”

“As President Trump said today, Iran can never have a nuclear weapon, and the Iranian people welcome the sound of bombs because it means their oppressors are losing. The President will always stand with innocent civilians while annihilating the terrorists responsible for threatening our country and the entire world with a nuclear weapon,” White House deputy press secretary Anna Kelly added. “Greater destruction can be avoided if the regime understands the seriousness of this moment and makes a deal with the United States.”

Trump also said Tuesday, “now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS?”

“We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World,” the president added. “47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!”

Australia’s most decorated living soldier charged amid fierce debate over war crimes allegations

Australian authorities have arrested and charged the country’s most decorated living soldier, Ben Roberts-Smith, 47, with five war crime murders allegedly committed during the war in Afghanistan.

Roberts-Smith, a former member of the Australian Defence Force, was arrested at Sydney Airport on Tuesday. His arrest has sparked outcry from a former Australian prime minister, who argued its unfair to judge the actions of “men in mortal combat by the standards of ordinary civilian life.” X owner Elon Musk also weighed in on the arrest, calling it “insane.”

The Australian Federal Police and the Office of the Special Investigator said Roberts-Smith is being charged in connection with the killings of five unarmed Afghans in three separate incidents between 2009 and 2012. AFP Commissioner Krissy Barrett alleged that Roberts-Smith either killed the unarmed Afghans himself or instructed a subordinate to kill them. If convicted, Roberts-Smith faces life imprisonment on each charge.

“It will be alleged the victims were not taking part in hostilities at the time of their alleged murder in Afghanistan,” Barrett said during a press conference. “It will be alleged the victims were detained, unarmed and were under the control of ADF members when they were killed.”

The investigation into Roberts-Smith began in 2021, according to Ross Barnett, director of investigations at the Office of the Special Investigator. Roberts-Smith received the Victoria Cross after storming two enemy machine guns during his fifth tour in Afghanistan.

Barnett said at the press conference that the investigation was “under challenging circumstances,” given that some of the murders occurred well over a decade ago and investigators were unable to visit Afghanistan.

“We don’t have access to the crime scenes, we don’t have photographs, site plans, measurements, the recovery of projectiles, blood spatter analysis, all of those things we would normally get at a crime scene,” Barnett said at the press conference.

While Australia’s current prime minister has yet to weigh in on the arrest, former Australian Prime Minister and leader of the Liberal Party Tony Abbott expressed his support for Roberts-Smith on X in a lengthy post.

“If Ben Roberts-Smith transgressed, why wasn’t this picked up prior to his gallantry awards and why wasn’t any culture of brutality towards prisoners detected by his more senior officers, and dealt with quickly, rather than being allowed to fester, as has been alleged, for over a decade?” Abbott wrote.

Allegations that Roberts-Smith engaged in war crimes began circulating publicly in 2017 and 2018 in articles published by The Age, the Sydney Morning Herald and The Canberra Times.

Roberts-Smith filed a defamation suit against the papers, which became Australia’s most expensive defamation trial, but in 2023, a Federal Court judge ruled that four of the six murder allegations brought by the papers against Roberts-Smith were legitimate.

In one of the allegations ruled to have merit by Justice Anthony Besanko, Roberts-Smith allegedly marched a handcuffed Afghan man named Ali Jan off the edge of a 10-meter cliff. He survived the fall, but Roberts-Smith and his fellow soldiers walked down a footpath to meet him. Roberts-Smith then ordered a subordinate, known as Person 11 in court, to shoot him.

The High Court dismissed Roberts-Smith’s appeal of the ruling in September 2025.

The criminal charges against Roberts-Smith stem from a joint effort by OSI and AFP. The two Australian agencies have conducted 53 investigations into ADF members tied to war crime allegations in Afghanistan. Ten of the investigations remain ongoing.

Man with Celine Dion’s rare disease warns her comeback could be dangerous


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

A former marathon runner who was diagnosed with the same condition as Celine Dion worries that crowds could be a “trigger” during the singer’s recently announced comeback.

Jon Kelf, 56, was a five-time marathon runner before he was diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome (SPS) in 2019, SWNS reported. Dion revealed her own diagnosis in late 2022.

SPS causes progressive muscle stiffness and severe muscle spasms that can lead to chronic pain, falls and loss of mobility over time, according to UT Southwestern Medical Center.

UNEXPLAINED SHOULDER PAIN COULD SIGNAL DANGEROUS HEALTH CONDITION, DOCTOR WARNS

“In some cases, spasms are so severe that they can cause falls, broken bones and dislocated joints,” the center notes on its website.

While this rare condition is not fatal, its symptoms can dramatically affect a person’s quality of life.

The disease is often triggered by emotional stress or noise, elements Kelf calls “particularly debilitating.” He shared with SWNS that he never expected Dion to perform again.

 “I was a bit surprised. Especially when she talked about the dancing. I couldn’t dance before the diagnosis, let alone afterwards,” said Kelf, who has no medical involvement or knowledge of Dion’s case personally.

“Obviously, she has the resources to get the best treatment available, but even still, it’s quite remarkable.”

In 2019, the former engineer started feeling his legs tighten up and stiffen anytime he was nervous or tense, but dismissed the odd sensations until one day, he stood and couldn’t move.

Kelf can now barely walk and has been forced to quit his job.

The intervals will be crucial for Dion to pace herself, rest and medicate between shows, according to Kelf.

Ex-Arsenal, Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey announces retirement


Former Arsenal and Wales midfielder Aaron Ramsey has announced his retirement from football.

Ramsey’s last competitive appearance came in September 2025 for Liga MX side Pumas, who he left after making just six appearances.

The 35-year-old is a stalwart of Welsh football, and featured in three major tournaments for his country. In all, he made 86 appearances for Wales and scored 21 goals.

“It has been my privilege to wear the Welsh shirt and experience so many incredible moments in it,” Ramsey said in a statement.

“It would not have been possible without the incredible input of all the managers I have played under and all the staff who have helped me in many ways.”

– Arsenal need Mikel Arteta to step up now to avoid disaster again
– Gareth Bale: Man United made a bigger offer for me but I wanted Real Madrid

Ramsey’s club career was defined by his time at Arsenal, where he made over 250 appearances and scored 40 goals.

A key moment in the midfielder’s Arsenal career came at the Brittania Stadium in 2010, where he suffered a horrific injury. He spent nearly a year out of action due to a double leg-break.

He bounced back admirably and wrote himself into Arsenal’s history books by scoring winners in two FA Cup finals.

Following his exit from Arsenal in 2019, Ramsey had spells at Juventus, Rangers, Nice and Cardiff.

“Thank you to all the clubs I’ve been lucky enough to play for. Thank you to all the managers and staff that have helped me be able to live my dream and play at the highest level,” he said.

Healthcare data breach hits system storing patient records


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Healthcare data breaches keep coming. Now, CareCloud is the latest to confirm a serious security incident.

The company says hackers accessed one of its systems that stores electronic health records, not confirmed patient records themselves. The intrusion lasted more than eight hours on March 16. That window matters because even a short breach can expose sensitive data at scale.

At this point, there is still uncertainty. CareCloud has not confirmed whether any data was taken or what specific information may be involved. However, the investigation is ongoing, and the company has brought in outside cybersecurity experts.

HEALTH TECH BREACH EXPOSES 3.4M PATIENT RECORDS

What exactly happened inside CareCloud’s systems

CareCloud operates multiple environments where patient records are stored. According to its filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, attackers gained access to one of those environments.

Here is what we know so far:

  • Unauthorized access began on March 16
  • Hackers stayed inside for more than eight hours
  • The company restored full system functionality and data access the same day
  • The company believes the attackers are no longer inside

CareCloud also says the incident was contained to that single environment and did not impact its other systems or platforms. Even so, the biggest unanswered question remains whether any data left the system. That detail matters because stolen health data often fuels identity theft, insurance fraud and targeted scams. 

Why healthcare data is such a valuable target

Healthcare companies sit on a goldmine of personal information. That includes names, Social Security numbers and medical histories. Unlike a credit card, you cannot simply cancel your medical history. We saw the scale of this risk during the Change Healthcare ransomware attack. That breach disrupted systems across the U.S. and delayed care for weeks. It also exposed just how interconnected the healthcare infrastructure has become. CareCloud serves more than 45,000 providers and supports millions of patients. That kind of reach makes any incident more serious. 

Where patient data may be stored

CareCloud has not shared full technical details yet. Public records suggest much of its infrastructure relies on Amazon Web Services. Cloud platforms are widely used across healthcare. They offer scale and flexibility. At the same time, they require strict security controls to prevent unauthorized access. It is still unclear how CareCloud separates or backs up data across its systems. That detail could affect how far attackers were able to move once inside. We reached out to CareCloud for a comment, but did not hear back before our deadline.

What this means to you

Even if you have never heard of CareCloud, your doctor might use it. That is how these breaches work. A behind-the-scenes company gets compromised, and patients feel the impact later. Right now, there is no confirmation that patient data was stolen. Still, this is the moment to stay alert. If your information was involved, notifications could come weeks or even months later.

Ways to stay safe from healthcare data breaches

Healthcare breaches can feel out of your control. Still, a few simple habits can make a real difference.

1) Watch your medical statements closely

Check every explanation of benefits and billing statement you receive. Look for charges, prescriptions or visits you do not recognize. Even a small, unfamiliar charge can signal fraud. If something looks off, contact your insurer or provider right away.

2) Set up identity theft monitoring

Health data can be used to open accounts, file fake claims or commit identity theft. Identity Theft companies can monitor personal information like your Social Security number (SSN), phone number and email address, and alert you if it is being sold on the dark web or being used to open an account. They can also assist you in freezing your bank and credit card accounts to prevent further unauthorized use by criminals. The faster you catch it, the easier it is to limit the damage. See my tips and best picks on Best Identity Theft Protection at Cyberguy.com 

3) Consider data removal services

Your personal details often end up on data broker sites without your knowledge. That information can be used to target you after a breach. Removing your data from these sites with a data removal service reduces how much scammers can find and use against you. Check out my top picks for data removal services and get a free scan to find out if your personal information is already out on the web by visiting Cyberguy.com

4) Use strong antivirus protection

If you receive emails about medical updates or billing issues, be extra careful. Malicious links and attachments are common after breaches. Strong antivirus software can help detect threats before you click and stop harmful downloads in real time.

5) Use strong, unique passwords

Secure your patient portals with a password you do not use anywhere else. Reusing passwords makes it easier for attackers to access multiple accounts. A password manager can generate and store strong passwords for you so you do not have to remember them. Check out the best expert-reviewed password managers of 2026 at Cyberguy.com

6) Enable two-factor authentication

Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) if your provider offers it. This adds a second step, such as a code sent to your phone. Even if someone gets your password, this extra layer can stop them from getting into your account.

7) Be cautious with follow-up scams

After a breach, scammers often pose as healthcare providers or support teams. They may send emails, texts or even call you. Do not click links or share personal details unless you verify the source. When in doubt, go directly to your provider’s official website or call their listed number.
