… US Army officials have ordered an investigation into the activities of two AH-64 Apache attack helicopters that flew over Saturday’s ‘No Kings’ protest in downtown Nashville, then engaged in low-altitude maneuvers near the home of Kid Rock just north of the city. Kid Rock posted a video of the helicopters who paid a special visit to his home.

… Two days before the Trump admin’s lawyers appear before SCOTUS to argue the birthright citizenship case, he posted that the justices are dumb: “Birthright Citizenship is not about rich people from China, and the rest of the World, who want their children, FOR PAY, to ridiculously become citizens of the US. It is about the BABIES OF SLAVES! The World is laughing at how STUPID our US Court System has become (TARIFFS!). Dumb Judges and Justices will not a great Country make!”

… Punchbowl: “REPUBLICANS DHS MESS. Let’s be abundantly clear - this record-breaking, 44-day DHS funding impasse has turned into a political disaster for Republicans. At one point, Republicans seemed to be breaking through with their message that Dems instigated the DHS fight over undocumented immigrants. But now, House and Senate Rs are publicly warring with each other over who’s at fault for last week’s debacle. The GOP-run Congress has left town until mid-April, while Trump was forced to issue an executive order to pay TSA employees.”

… “This episode illustrates how adrift the GOP-run Congress is when Trump remains on the sidelines. Trump was completely silent about the Senate’s proposal, although his staff was telling lawmakers he approved. When it became clear that the House would reject it, Trump sided with them. But now the House Republican Conference has ownership of the impasse. Johnson’s rejection of Thune’s approach ensures that the next two weeks will be all about how GOP infighting is prolonging the shutdown.”
