NY Times push alert that reads: Chaos at the D.N.C. The Democratic National Committee has been plagued by infighting and a drop in big donations, raising alarm as the party tries to win back power.
From The NY Times: "There's obviously an ongoing negotiation with Russia and Ukraine, and I think the president made the decision not to conflate the two issues." Russia pays no tariffs under the president's current system; Ukraine, the victim of Moscow's 2022 invasion, pays 10 percent.)

On the morning of 22 March, before Manin could start an insurrec-tion, a mutiny broke out in the boatyards of the Venetian arsenal. Here, local grievances were in play. The 800-odd workmen of the boatyards, known as arsenalotti, had repeatedly demanded a pay rise from their chief supervisor, a notoriously merciless Croat by the name of Captain Marinovic. Marinovic's habitual reply to such demands was: 'forse la prossima settimana' - 'perhaps next week'. Amidst surging grain prices, tensions in the boatyards rose in early March. On 18 March, the arsen-alotti learned that they would be barred from the newly instituted Civic Guard. This was unsurprising, given that the guard had been instituted precisely to protect the propertied classes against aroused proletarians. On 21 March, when the men of the boatyards petitioned the commander of the guard to admit them to its ranks, resentment over wages and the Civic Guard reached boiling point. When Marinovic turned up to work on the following morning, he was the wrong man in the wrong place at the wrong time. A group of arsenalotti chased him through the yards and up a tower, mortally wounded him with a knife, and dragged him down the stairs by his feet. Still barely alive, he asked for a priest, to which his tormentors replied: 'perhaps next week'.
