off with a shot of intriguing and offbeat stories. Like the president, you
deserve no less.

May 02, 2022


TODAY

Thousands waiting to leave the besieged city of Mariupol have been asked to wait
a little longer as fighting spikes again. Ohio and Indiana are preparing to be
the first to the ballot box in a long summer of primaries ahead of the midterm
elections. President Xi Jinping is under fire over the economic impact of
China’s COVID lockdowns. And Britain’s Parliament is shaking after an MP
confessed to viewing pornography while on the job at the House of Commons. All
this and more in today’s PDB.



IMPORTANT

Evacuations Paused

THOUSANDS OF MARIUPOL RESIDENTS WAIT TO FLEE CITY

A long-awaited evacuation of the besieged Ukrainian city has been put on hold
for a day amid heightened “security risks,” the Mariupol City Council said in
its official Telegram channel. Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said over
100 women and children had been removed from the Azovstal steel plant before
Russian shelling began again. Officials believe hundreds of civilians are holed
up in the steel plant with little access to food, water or health care. The
evacuation, administered by the Red Cross and the United Nations, is hoped to
resume today, with Mariupol residents arriving in the city of Zaporizhzhia in
southeastern Ukraine. (Sources: CNN, France 24, NYT)

Primaries in Play

OHIO, INDIANA LAUNCH MIDTERMS WITH TUESDAY POLLS

The two states are kicking off a contentious primary season ahead of November’s
midterm elections. The Ohio vote especially is seen as a test for the staying
power of MAGA Nation with former President Donald Trump and his allies deeply
involved. Hillbilly Elegy author JD Vance has secured Trump’s endorsement for
the open Senate seat, but other hopefuls are spending big hoping to make up the
difference. In Indiana, the race hits closer to home with a state race pushing
further to the right, putting everything from the pandemic response to abortion
on the table. (Source: AP)

Backslide

CHINA’S ‘COVID ZERO’ POLICY IS BECOMING ZERO GROWTH

The Chinese economy is shuddering under the weight of continued lockdowns across
the country and President Xi Jinping is feeling the heat. Government data
released at the end of April shows how deeply the lockdowns have cut:
Manufacturing and services productivity dropped all the way to levels not seen
since the very start of the pandemic in February 2020, leaving many in China
wondering just what the government’s plan is. Focusing on economic growth and
maintaining the COVID Zero policy are at odds, economists say, and until that is
resolved they expect to see growth slide further. (Sources: Bloomberg)

Not Safe For Work

BRITISH MP RESIGNS AFTER WATCHING PORN IN PARLIAMENT

It began with a tractor. That’s what MP Neil Parish told voters after resigning
from his Tiverton and Honiton seat over the weekend following revelations that
he’d viewed pornography twice in the House of Commons chamber. Parish, who was
suspended from the Conservative Party on Friday, said he first came across the
material accidentally when perusing tractors — but he confessed he visited the
adult site with “a very similar name” once again deliberately. Two female
colleagues made complaints after spotting Parish’s phone. “I made a huge
terrible mistake and I'm here to tell the world,” he said. (Sources: BBC, FT)

Briefly

HERE ARE SOME THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT TODAY: 

When Nancy met Kyiv. U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made a secret trip to the
Ukrainian capital over the weekend, meeting with President Zelenskyy and
recommitting American support. (Source: The Hill) A day on a plane. Australian
carrier Qantas is banking on demand for a Sydney to London direct flight — a
record 20 hours in the air — with the order of a dozen specially designed Airbus
aircraft. (Source: Reuters) And stay out. British royals have had a string of
disastrous visits to Commonwealth countries in the Caribbean in recent weeks,
prompting a review of future visits for the Brits and popular support for
reparations and republicanism for the Caribbeans. (Source: The Guardian)





INTRIGUING

Eid Mubarak

LARGE SCALE EID CELEBRATIONS RETURN FOR MUCH OF MUSLIM WORLD

Eid has arrived for the world’s 1.8 billion Muslims, the first large celebration
of the end of Ramadan since 2019. In Indonesia, the world’s most populous Muslim
nation, authorities have warned that remaining COVID-19 restrictions, such as
social distancing, must still be maintained, but it’s much looser than the
lockdowns of 2020 and 2021. In Afghanistan it’s a different story: Increased
poverty and food shortages since the return of the Taliban have muted the feasts
typically enjoyed in the country at the end of the fasting month. (Sources: Al
Jazeera, Jakarta Post)

Nightmare Fodder

DOZENS OF CREEPY DOLLS WASH UP ALONG TEXAS COASTLINE

Marine researchers who regularly comb a 40-mile stretch of Gulf Coast beaches
have gone viral for sharing the treasures that wash ashore — in particular the
dolls: Dozens of them over the last year, transformed by barnacles and algae.
“There’s a lot of nightmares out there,” said Jace Tunnell, director of the
Mission Aransas Reserve. He noted that a “loop current” in the Gulf of Mexico
delivers 10 times more flotsam to that area than anywhere else along the coast.
But the discarded dollies aren’t going to waste. Tunnell and his team are
planning to auction them to fund their research. (Photo: Mission-Aransas

Art on Trial

JAPANESE IMMERSIVE ART COLLECTIVE SUES FOR COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

While Instagram-friendly immersive exhibits featuring artists like Vincent Van
Gogh and Gustav Klimt have drawn massive crowds around the world, Tokyo’s
TeamLab, an interdisciplinary collective of “ultra-technologists” founded in
2001, is staking its claim on its own immersive experiences. The group sued the
Museum of Dream Space, arguing that the California company copied its shows and
even used TeamLab images for its promotional materials. MODS responded that many
artists use projections and hanging LEDs in installations, so TeamLab’s content
is “not original.” The court’s judgment, which could come as soon as June, could
determine whether immersive installations are copyrightable. (Source: ArtNews)

Love Can Build a Bridge

COUNTRY MUSIC CELEBRATES, MOURNS NAOMI JUDD

Just one day after the sudden death of the 76-year-old country legend, the Judds
were inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame Sunday night, along with Ray
Charles, pedal steel drummer Pete Drake and drummer Eddie Bayers. The Nashville
event was unusually bittersweet as Wynonna Judd, daughter of Naomi and one half
of the iconic duo, told the audience she was unprepared to speak: “I knew mom
would probably talk the most.” The Judds were honored with performances from
Carly Pearce, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. “It’s a very strange dynamic,”
Wynonna noted, “to be this broken and this blessed.” (Sources: Variety,
Billboard)

A League of Their Own

WOMEN TAKE THE FIELD IN BASEBALL FIRSTS

Welcome to the Staten Island FerryHawks, Kelsie Whitmore. On Sunday the
23-year-old pitcher/outfielder became the first woman to start in the Atlantic
League and one of just a handful to play in a league affiliated with Major
League Baseball. Whitmore, who played softball for Cal State Fullerton, hopes
this is the first step in a long pro career. It’s been a big few weeks for women
in baseball. Last month, San Francisco Giants coach Alyssa Nakken became the
first female on-field coach in an MLB game, and Rachel Balkovec entered the
history books managing the Yankees-affiliated Low-A Tampa Tarpons. (Sources: AP,
