Long term holder trends suggest a maturing bear market, yet extended consolidation could test investor patience.

Former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow called on the Supreme Court to address whether social media platforms can avoid responsibility when child sex abuse material (CSAM) is shared online, demanding that big tech companies “protect kids over profit.””It’s one of the worst evils in the world,” Tebow said Tuesday on “The Story with Martha MacCallum” when asked why he became interested in fighting child exploitation on social media.”And really what we’re talking about is the replaying and memorializing of people’s worst days.”He pointed to a case up for consideration by the Supreme Court that alleges X, formerly known as Twitter, refused to take down CSAM despite multiple requests notifying the company of the explicit content.FBI CAPTURES BANGLADESHI FUGITIVE EXTRADITED IN MASSIVE ONLINE CHILD SEXTORTION CASE”With Doe versus Twitter, it’s a 13 and 14-year-old boy that were sextorted in some of the worst ways. And then years later, it’s getting replayed on Twitter over and over and over again. Over 100,000 people watched it and thousands shared it.”He said the family pleaded with X to take down the content, providing identification to prove they were who they said they were.”And Twitter said, ‘Sorry, there’s nothing we can do about it. We’re not going to take it down.’ And the only reason it got taken down from Twitter is because HSI and the government got involved, and eventually they took it down, but now it’s also being shared all over the internet.”TIM TEBOW TESTIFIES BEFORE SENATE COMMITTEE ON BIPARTISAN BILL TO COMBAT CHILD EXPLOITATIONThe case centers on Section 230 of the Communications Act, known as “protection for private blocking and screening of offensive material.” The law states that online platforms are generally not treated as the “publisher or speaker” of information provided by another content provider and also gives protection for certain good-faith efforts to restrict access to objectionable material.The legal battle asks whether that protection covers X in this case, after the company was allegedly contacted multiple times about the content in question.Tebow called online child sexual exploitation an “epidemic.” The FBI received nearly 55,000 reports of crimes related to sextortion and extortion in 2024, and the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children’s (NCMEC) CyberTipline received 20.5 million reports of suspected child sexual exploitation the same year.”It is actually all of our jobs to protect the next generation. And if we just feel like, as a society, it’s okay to look the other way, then we are putting kids in harm’s way and their worst moments are being relived over and over and over again. And we can do better,” said Tebow.Fox News Digital reached out to X for comment but did not receive a response.

President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship for the children of illegal immigrants appears to be in jeopardy following Supreme Court oral arguments on Wednesday. Supreme Court justices pursued what Amy Swearer, a senior legal fellow at Advancing American Freedom, described as a “disappointing” line of questioning. Liberal and conservative Supreme Court justices appeared skeptical of Trump’s order, which the president has argued is necessary to end a “magnet” for illegal immigration and “birth tourism,” in which foreign nationals travel to the U.S. to give birth so their children gain citizenship.Lawyers for the Trump administration argued that the 14th Amendment’s stipulation that individuals must be subject to U.S. jurisdiction to be American citizens means children of illegal immigrants are excluded from automatic citizenship. The administration pointed to “striking” numbers of illegal immigrants abusing current law through a type of birth tourism. Meanwhile, opposing lawyers from the American Civil Liberties Union argued that Supreme Court precedent, particularly the Wong Kim Ark case, supports a broader interpretation that all those born on U.S. soil are automatic citizens.In an interview with Fox News Digital, Swearer said that while the oral arguments went “a little bit better than anticipated” for the administration in some regards, the day was a mixed bag for the government.SAUER CITES ‘STRIKING’ FIGURES ON SECRETIVE BIRTH TOURISM IN HIGH-STAKES SCOTUS CASE”Most people understood coming into this, and I suspect even the government understood coming into this, that this was probably going to be a bit of an uphill battle,” Swearer said.She said conservative and liberal justices seemed hesitant about how the government would apply Trump’s order.Swearer said, “We did see a lot of those types of questions,” adding, “I’m not sure they are actually that important to the overall doctrinal questions of, ‘What does the 14th Amendment citizenship clause actually mean?’”Meanwhile, she said it was “a bit disappointing” not to see more pushback from the justices on the ACLU’s broad interpretation of the 14th Amendment.While there was much discussion of the Wong Kim Ark case, which revolved around the citizenship of a child of legal Chinese immigrants, Swearer said she “was disappointed” not to see discussion of other legal precedent she believes is crucial.ALITO INVOKES SCALIA ANALOGY IN BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP FIGHT OVER ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION”The ACLU’s argument is essentially no one up until Donald Trump ever thought that this was a viable way of framing birthright citizenship. And the reality is when you look at decisions by other presidents during the 19th century, you actually did have executive branch decisions saying, ‘No, we’re not going to issue passports to this person, even though they were born in the United States because they weren’t born subject to our jurisdiction, because their parents weren’t lawfully or permanently present in the United States.’ And I think that’s important,” she said.”I think that was one of the missed opportunities to really push back on the ACLU’s position, and it just didn’t come up in the same way that Wong Kim Ark did,” she added.What does this mean for the future of Trump’s order? Swearer said that while the three liberal justices’ stances are obvious, she admitted, “It’s hard to know what to make of” the six other justices’ lack of questioning on what she believes are the more “foundational questions about the history and tradition” of the citizenship issue.Despite this, Swearer said, “I do think there’s a path forward” for a Trump victory, though it would likely be narrow and partial.INSIDE SUPREME COURT: HOW TRUMP HEARD BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP ARGUMENTS”I would not quantify it, but I wouldn’t be shocked to see some sort of plurality of opinions splitting the baby somewhere,” she said.Swearer speculated that possible routes the court could take include differentiating between illegal immigrants and temporary visa holders, delivering a partial victory for the administration, or deciding the question based on existing statute rather than attempting to interpret the language of the 14th Amendment, which would cut against Trump’s order.”Maybe they split the baby that way,” she said, adding, “I think at the end of the day, there are just so many options for what this could look like.” 

The Palm Sunday massacres of Christians continued into Holy Week, with additional killings on Monday and Tuesday. Photo courtesy of Paul, a local journalist.
At least 53 Nigerians were killed in multiple Palm Sunday attacks targeting Christian communities in north-central Nigeria, according to International Christian Concern and other sources.
In the deadliest incident, gunmen identified by survivors as either militant Fulani or Boko Haram terrorists stormed the Ungwan Rukuba community in the Plateau State area of Jos at around 8 p.m.
The attack in Jos followed earlier violence the same day in Angwa Rukuba Junction in Eto Baba, where at least 10 people were killed.
Additional killings occurred in Kahir village in the Kagarko local government area of Kaduna State, where gunmen attacked a bachelor party and killed at least 13 attendees. The victims at the gathering ranged in age from 21 to 31.
In an interview with The Gateway Pundit, Joshua Emmanuel, a missionary in northern Nigeria and president of Jos Reformed Theological College, said he has lived in Jos for nearly ten years and has extensive experience with ongoing violence in the region.
He explained that he was present during the latest crisis and had gone into the city to assess conditions firsthand. The Palm Sunday massacre occurred in Angwan Rukuba, just minutes from where he lives and works.
He described how a 48-hour curfew was imposed following the massacre and then lifted the following morning, allowing people to return to work and markets to reopen.
However, by mid-morning, new attacks began. Emmanuel said that armed men carrying machetes appeared in the Terminus area and began attacking Christians in the streets, causing widespread panic.
He explained that fear quickly spread across the city, leading to similar incidents in other neighborhoods. A Christian man was killed near the state university, and Emmanuel personally witnessed the killing of a man whose vehicle was burned.
Emmanuel said he drove through the city later that morning and observed a dramatic shift in atmosphere. Areas that had been busy earlier were nearly empty, with most women absent from the streets.
Groups of Muslim and Christian men stood on opposite sides of the roads, watching each other closely, while in other areas large groups gathered and violence broke out.
“People are getting hacked up with machetes,” he said, describing the sporadic but widespread nature of the clashes. He added that the total number of casualties remained unclear, though injuries were likely significant.
He emphasized that tensions in the city are among the highest he has seen in a decade. According to Emmanuel, many Christians feel anger and frustration after repeated attacks and a lack of accountability.
He said they are “sick and tired of being slaughtered” and believe that security forces are either absent or slow to respond. This anger has contributed to retaliatory actions by some Christian men and youths, further escalating the situation.
Emmanuel described the city as largely shut down, with limited access to fuel, supplies, and basic services. Movement remained restricted, and residents stayed close to their homes.
He noted an unusually high number of checkpoints throughout the city, with security forces stationed at short intervals. “The city is really tense right now,” he said, warning that the situation could quickly deteriorate into broader street fighting, as has happened in previous outbreaks of violence.
He added that Muslim religious leaders had encouraged the attacks.
“During their Salat time, the Muslim community, particularly some clerics and imams, did tell their people to take this opportunity… to hit and hurt the Christians.”
This claim has been repeated by many Nigerians across social media, who say that imams made posts telling their followers to attack Christians immediately after Ramadan.
In an interview with The Gateway Pundit, Paul, a local Christian and journalist, repeated the allegation, saying these instructions had been publicly issued weeks before the Palm Sunday attacks but were ignored.
He said Muslim youths had posted threats on Facebook roughly three weeks earlier, stating they would attack Christians after Ramadan and the Salah celebrations.
According to Paul, “They were not arrested, and no measures were put in place to forestall it.”
He criticized authorities for lifting the curfew imposed after the attacks without first deploying adequate security in known flashpoints.
Paul explained that these areas have a history of violence and were left vulnerable. As a result, when people returned to normal activity, some were stopped and killed.
“People innocently went out and they were stopped in those places and they were butchered and killed,” he said.
Paul argued that the sequence of events showed a clear pattern. He said threats were made publicly, no action was taken, attacks occurred on Palm Sunday, and then further violence followed immediately after the curfew was lifted.
He stated that Muslim attackers targeted Christian commuters on the roads as soon as restrictions were eased. “That should tell you it is not a coincidence,” he said, emphasizing that the violence followed a predictable progression.
He concluded that the attacks were deliberate and coordinated. “The whole thing is planned and orchestrated to kill Christians in their neighborhood,” he said, asserting that the failure to act on prior warnings and the timing of the violence pointed to premeditation.
Allegations that the government was aware of the attacks in advance but that soldiers and police failed to act were raised during a March 25 intelligence briefing in Washington, D.C., hosted by Equipping the Persecuted in coordination with Truth Nigeria.
Judd Saul, who leads both groups, said intelligence gathered from sources on the ground indicated that Nigerian authorities had prior knowledge of the threat.
Saul said the Nigerian military verified intelligence identifying the location of gunmen but did not take decisive action to stop them.
He stated that authorities reviewed his organization’s terror alerts for the first time and allegedly discovered more than 1,000 members of the Fulani Ethnic Militia assembled with automatic weapons and motorcycles in preparation for an ambush.
According to Saul, a Nigerian patrol engaged the group, but after the militants began to retreat, the commanding officer received orders not to pursue.
He warned that the threat remains ongoing and is expanding. Saul said the Fulani Ethnic Militia is gathering in large numbers and preparing attacks in Benue and Plateau states, as well as in southern Kaduna, including Chikun, Kafanchan, and Kajuru, along with parts of Taraba State.
“Nothing has slowed down, nothing is stopped,” he said, adding that more fighters are continuing to assemble. He described the situation as escalating and warned that “this is just the beginning.” failed
Most major U.S. mainstream media failed to report on either the Palm Sunday massacre or the continuing violence during Holy Week, with the exception of The New York Times.
The New York Times reported on the deaths while using the incident to support its claim that there is no Christian genocide in Nigeria. This comes despite the fact that in the first 220 days of 2025, more than 7,000 Christians were killed in the country, and the death toll is expected to double this year.

Tesla Delivers 358,023 Vehicles In Q1, Missing Wall Street Expectations For Second Consecutive Quarter

Tesla reported a disappointing first quarter, delivering 358,023 vehicles worldwide, falling short of Wall Street expectations of about 372,000, according to Bloomberg-compiled estimates and the company’s own release.

The miss marks Tesla’s second consecutive quarter below forecasts, underscoring continued pressure on its core automotive business as it navigates slowing electric-vehicle demand and a more competitive global market.

Despite the shortfall, deliveries were still up 6.3% year over year, benefiting from an easier comparison period when production of the Model Y was temporarily paused across multiple factories and the company faced consumer backlash tied to CEO Elon Musk. Even so, the results highlight the growing challenges Tesla faces in sustaining growth in its main revenue-generating segment, even as investor focus has increasingly shifted toward its longer-term bets on artificial intelligence, autonomous driving, and robotics.

As Bloomberg noted this week, a slower pace of growth may persist. Demand for EVs is cooling globally, US buyers no longer benefit from federal tax credits, and Tesla’s lineup is narrowing as Models S and X are phased out, all while competition intensifies.

“If they can show that there’s stability in the numbers without the tax credit — and they can, at least with the delivery number — I think that that would be a win,” said Gene Munster.

Notably, just days before reporting, Tesla had circulated a company-compiled consensus estimate suggesting deliveries of around 365,645 vehicles for the quarter.

That figure was based on forecasts from a wide range of sell-side firms, including Daiwa, Deutsche Bank, Cowen, Canaccord, Baird, Wolfe, Exane, Goldman Sachs, RBC, Evercore ISI, Barclays, Mizuho, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Morgan Stanley, Truist, UBS, Jefferies, JPMorgan, Needham, HSBC, Cantor Fitzgerald, and William Blair.

At the time, Tesla emphasized that it does not endorse analysts’ projections, noting that the figures represent aggregated estimates rather than company guidance, with only prior quarters reflecting actual reported results.

Elon Musk said in a post on X on Wednesday that orders for the Model S and Model X have effectively ended, though some remaining inventory is still available. He added that there will be an official event to mark the close of the era, noting that he has a deep appreciation for those vehicles.

 “We will have an official ceremony to mark the ending of an era. I love those cars,” Elon Musk said at the time.

Private Credit Bank Run Begins: Blue Owl Gates After Shocking 41% Of OTIC Investors Ask For Their Money

A week ago, in an attempt to calm the market, Goldman’s economists published a lengthy, if at times disjointed, report discussing why a crisis in private credit would not lead to another financial crisis.

We are about to find out if they were right. 

Recall that in mid-March, while attention was understandably focused on the Iran war, we explained why Blue Owl’s February decision to commence liquidations of loans in its three core private credit funds to fund current and future redemptions, was the industry’s “Margin Call” moment, to wit: 

First it was Blue Owl, the largest pure play Private Credit fund with over $300 billion in AUM. The company, the first to face massive redemption demands, refused to gate investors and instead announced it would sell $1.4 billion in private loans (it was unclear which loans were sold, but Goldman suggested that these are likely the best ones so as to find willing buyers, leaving the company with the toxic sludge) from its three BDCs (OBDCII, OBDC and OTIC) at 99.7 cents (a number which was meant to inspire confidence yet was laughable, especially since once of the “buyers” was a related-party insurance company, Kuvare, also owned by Blue Owl), to satisfy redemption requests. 

In our February 19 article describing the Blue Owl transaction, we said that “while it is unclear how deep the secondary market for private credit assets is, to the extent demand is relatively scarce, a transaction of this size could dry up market liquidity. If that assumption is true, other BDCs looking to exit portfolio investments could be jeopardized. Recall the immortal line from Margin Call: “Be First, Be Smarter, or Cheat.”

We then said that “this could very well be Blue Owl’s “Be First” moment… “Sell it all, today” especially if it were to later emerge that the secondary market is only deep for higher quality private credit assets, like the ones in the portfolio OWL is selling. In a concurrent report, Barclays warned that “if this transaction dries up secondary liquidity for private credit assets (or proves that the bid is only there for higher quality assets), it could be negative for other BDCs exploring portfolio sales.”

In retrospect, this is precisely when the “Margin Call moment” of the private credit sector happened, because what happened next would make the market’s head spin.

And unfortunately for Blue Owl, while the firm’s catastrophic practices and financial engineering was indeed the snowflake that started the avalanche in the broader private credit sector, it has now boomeranged on the company itself and may have well led to its demise when two months after desperately seeking to avoid gating redemptions, the private credit giant announced it will in fact limit redemptions from two of its private credit funds after facing a historic surge in withdrawal requests that is unprecedented among major firms in the $1.8 trillion market.

Redemption requests in Blue Owl’s marquee $36 billion Credit Income Corp. fund, one of the industry’s largest, soared to 21.9% in the three months ended March 31, according to an investor letter first reported by Bloomberg, up from “only” 5.2% in the prior period. But it was the smaller Blue Owl Technology Income Corp, which was at the center of the February turmoil, that was the real shock after its shareholders asked for a shocking 40.7% back, compared with 15.4% three months earlier, according to a separate letter. 

Both funds had previously met the requests in excess of its 5% tender offer. This time, though, Blue Owl – whose actions sparked the crisis that is now sweeping across pricvate credit – said it would join industry peers in capping redemptions at that level, “in accordance with the fund structure, reflecting our commitment to balancing the interests of both tendering and remaining shareholders.”

For the bigger fund, OCIC, that amounts to $988 million of redemptions honored and about $3.2 billion remaining in the fund, while for OTIC it means redeeming $179 million and keeping roughly $1 billion of investors’ cash, according to Bloomberg.

Craig Packer, Blue Owl’s co-president, said in an investor update that he believed the uptick in redemptions reflected a “period of heightened negative sentiment toward the asset class that has intensified as peers have reported tender results”.

And why would their tender results be intensified one wonders? Would it have something to do with that pinnacle of financial engineering where Blue Owl dumped many of its best loans to a related entity? Maybe Craig thinks that his investors are all idiots, but as he just found out, they may be far smarter than him.

“While we believe market perception has driven elevated tender activity, underlying credit fundamentals across our portfolio have remained resilient,” he added. “We continue to observe a meaningful disconnect between the public dialogue on private credit and the underlying trends in our portfolio.”

In the letters, OCIC said 90% of its shareholders chose not to tender, reflecting concentrated withdrawal demands, which means it was driven by institutions not retail investors who have been frequently blamed for all the ills plaguing private credit.. OTIC said its redemption pressure “was amplified by the fund’s more concentrated shareholder base, particularly within certain wealth channels and regions, and its specialized investment mandate.”

Both Blue Owl funds, which have returned more than 9% annualized since inception (not all too different from how Bernie Madoff generated double digits returns until one day his ponzi scheme collapsed), said they’re in a “strong position” to meet the 5% redemption requests and future tenders. OCIC and OTIC had $11.3 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, across cash, available borrowing and liquid Level 2 assets as of the end of February, according to the letters.

While Blue Owl joins industry peers including Apollo Global, Ares Management and BlackRock in sticking to their redemption threshold on non-traded business development companies, the staggering magnitude of the requests underscores how Blue Owl has found itself squarely in the middle of worries about private credit.

The limitation on outflows highlights the risks to individual investors who had flocked to so-called non-traded private credit funds over the past three years in periods of stress. Those wealthy individuals had been promised access to higher-yielding investments in exchange for limited liquidity. Now they are regretting it. 

Private credit asset managers have diverged in how they have dealt with redemption requests, with some going to great lengths to cash out investors, while others have stuck to their limit. Still, no major manager has disclosed facing the percentage that Blue Owl’s BDCs were asked to pay back.

And with Blue Owl’s private credit business now effectively in wind down mode, and mothballing the entire private credit industry, one wonders where so many crappy small and medium (mostly tech) companies will get the funding to exist. But before that, one wonders more just how wrong Goldman’s analysis is that a private credit crisis won’t impact the broader economy. We’ll find out very soon.

Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke was arrested on Wednesday in Arkansas on charges that include speeding and possession of a controlled substance. “I’m aware of the report, but don’t have any comments,” Grizzlies head coach Tuomas Iisalo told reporters before the Grizzlies’ game against the New York Knicks on Wednesday night, per ESPN.Clarke was booked into Cross County Jail on charges of improper passing, possession of a controlled substance, fleeing and exceeding the speed limit, and trafficking a controlled substance.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMClarke, a seventh-year player out of Gonzaga, was ruled out for the remainder of the 2025-26 NBA season after playing just two games. JALEN BRUNSON’S SISTER BLASTS ESPN AFTER STEPHEN A SMITH KNICKS RANT: ‘UTTERLY RIDICULOUS’He initially was out due to surgery needed on his right knee, but he also suffered a right calf strain that has forced him to miss most games this season. The Grizzles announced late last month that Clarke was still rehabbing his injury, but recent tests showed that he needed more time to heal.

Former Democratic Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel explained why he thinks the Democratic Party has lost touch with voters during a podcast interview Saturday. Emanuel, who is considered a potential 2028 Democratic presidential candidate, has called out his party in recent years for alienating voters by talking down to them and fixating on niche identity politics issues. “We lost the plot,” he said in a snippet shown on social media from the “Fifth Column” podcast. “We as Democrats nationally, from ‘Latinx,’ to defunding the police, to ‘police organizations are all racist,’ to bringing a set of cultural wars to our schools. We are on the losing side of those cultural wars. Full stop.””You are worried about bathroom access and locker room access, why don’t you focus on classroom excellence?” he rhetorically asked. “You have 50% of our kids not reading at grade level.”‘THE VIEW’ HOSTS ASK RAHM EMANUEL IF TRUMP STARTED IRAN WAR TO DISTRACT FROM EPSTEIN”Well, they can just say, ‘we can do both,’” one co-host of the podcast said. “You’ve proven you can’t because you’ve permitted a 30-year-low in reading and math scores and nobody seems to be calling the whistle on this,” Emanuel said.”We’ve lost the plot,” Emanuel repeated. “Because the party got un-anchored.”He went on to argue that past successful Democratic presidents “anchored” themselves to middle-class values that reached a wide variety of voters. The Democratic Party, he said, “went from acceptance to advocacy,” and noted there is a huge difference between the two ideas.NEWSOM GETS DEFENSIVE WHEN CONFRONTED BY LEFT-WING PODCASTER ON URGING DEMS TO BE ‘CULTURALLY NORMAL'”And I’ll just take one on that I shouldn’t.

He said that, while many people simply wish to point the finger at President Donald Trump for bringing more rage to American politics, Trump merely rode the anger that was already there.

Nancy Metayer Bowen (City of Coral Springs)
A Democrat politician has been found dead, and the suspect is allegedly the very person she shared her home with.
According to multiple reports, Coral Springs Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer Bowen, a Democrat and vice chair within the Florida Democratic Party, was discovered dead inside her home after police conducted a wellness check.
Authorities believed she was shot and killed on Wednesday in “an apparent domestic violence incident,” according to Florida Politics, citing sources familiar with the investigation.
Police identified her husband, Stephen Bowen, as a suspect in the killing. Following the incident, he allegedly fled to nearby Plantation, Florida, where he was later taken into custody at an apartment complex.
More from Florida Politics:
Sources said a friend of Metayer Bowen called to speak with her on Wednesday, but couldn’t reach her. They then called Bowen, who “sounded suspicious,” prompting the friend to call the police.
Officers went to the house for a wellness check at around 10 a.m., Coral Springs Police Chief Brad Mock said during a 5:45 p.m. press conference. After finding Metayer Bowen deceased, they put out a call for Bowen.
Plantation license plate readers got a hit on Bowen’s car along SR 7/U.S. 441, a source said. Shortly after that, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office apprehended him at a friend’s home.
Mock did not specify Metayer Bowen’s cause of death, but he confirmed the case is being investigated as a domestic violence incident.
The Coral Springs city government issued a tribute:
“We are heartbroken to share that Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer has died. She was more than a public servant, she was a light in our community. Her leadership was grounded in compassion, strength, and an unwavering commitment to others. Her impact on Coral Springs is immeasurable, and her loss leaves a void in our hearts. We ask our community to keep her family, loved ones, and all who are grieving in your thoughts and prayers. In this difficult time, we stand together as one city. We will carry her light, even in this darkness.”
