Morning Briefing: The Base Claims Involvement in Assassination in Ukraine

Morning Briefing: The Ukrainian wing of The Base, an international neo-Nazi White Supremacist terrorist network with suspected links to Russia, is reportedly “claiming involvement in the brazen assassination of an intelligence officer in Kyiv,” and the “shocking footage of the assassination circulated in Ukrainian media and caused a stir among residents in the capital.”
The Base has also recently been “relisted as a terrorist entity by the New Zealand Government, amid ongoing efforts to prevent extremist ideologies from taking root or operating within the country.”
Two active duty members of the Canadian Armed Forces were among the four men arrested and charged for “ideologically motivated violent extremism,” and the group was allegedly “planning to create an anti-government militia” and “forcibly take possession of land in the Québec City area.”

David Gilbert writes that “Trump and his allies had promised Republicans that once they took office they would release explosive revelations about what really happened when Epstein, the accused sex trafficker, died in custody in 2019—and his supposed ‘client list.’ But last week, the FBI and the Department of Justice issued a memo concluding that there was no cover-up and that Epstein had died by suicide. Even worse, the memo stated that the Epstein ‘client list’ that attorney general Pam Bondi had said was on her desk in February didn’t actually exist. The outrage was instant and overwhelming, as grassroots supporters, right-wing influencers, and conservative media outlets fumed. It wasn’t just about Epstein. It was, to them, a denial of the alleged child abuse rings that have become a cornerstone of conspiracy theories related to Epstein. The anger intensified further after WIRED reported that surveillance footage from a camera positioned near Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead had likely been modified. Trump has been scrambling to dismiss the criticism and defend Bondi.” [Wired]
Brandy Zadrozny writes that “For nearly a decade, anti-vaccine activists and film producers have been collecting tragic, mostly unverifiable stories from parents — accounts of deaths, injuries and autism allegedly caused by vaccines. On Tuesday, several of those activists served as witnesses inside the U.S. Senate for a hearing before the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs’ Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations. The hearing was punctuated by misinformation, conspiracy theories and genuine grief, as witnesses shared personal tragedies and an understandable search for causality — an emotional series of statements that drew expressions of compassion from both Democrats and Republicans on the subcommittee. Led by Covid vaccine misinformer Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., the ‘Voices of the Vaccine Injured’ hearing featured a witness list pulled straight from the anti-vaccine movement’s leadership roster: two senior employees of the Robert F. Kennedy Jr.-founded nonprofit Children’s Health Defense (CHD) and parents featured in ‘Vaxxed,’ the documentary-style film that helped launch the current anti-vaccine era.” [NBC News]
Isaac Arnsdorf writes that “there were already whispers of messianism among some of Trump’s supporters, such as the QAnon offshoot called Negative 48 whose members frequented his rallies in 2022. Trump has long claimed that God was on his movement’s side, and attendees at Trump rallies have routinely described the events in spiritual terms. But after the assassination attempt, many of his followers — and most notably Trump himself — more explicitly cast him as a divine instrument… Politics increasingly entered the pulpit at the demand of congregants, and pastors indulged those demands for fear of losing members, according to the journalist Tim Alberta in his 2024 book ‘The Kingdom, the Power and the Glory.’ On Monday the Trump administration said a federal prohibition on campaigning by nonprofit organizations does not apply to houses of worship, implementing a long-standing campaign promise to let churches make more explicit political endorsements.” [The Washington Post]
