USA box office on the third weekend of April 2024 is down 49% compared to last year when "The Super Mario Brothers" was the top-grossing movie.  "Civil War" was the top-grossing movie this weekend.

And it's down 49% compared to the 2018 peak when "A Quiet Place" ruled the weekend box office.

Variety, 4/21/2024
Alex Garland’s film, starring Kirsten Dunst as a photojournalist who traverses a violently divided United States, added $11.12 million in its second weekend of release. It has generated $44.8 million so far and already stands as one of A24’s top five highest-grossing movies of all time. With a $50 million price tag, it’s also the indie distributor’s most expensive film to date. 
Though it was a close race, “Civil War” charged ahead of a trio of newcomers — Universal’s vampire horror film “Abigail,” director Guy Ritchie’s “The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare” and Sony and Crunchyroll’s anime adventure “Spy x Family Code: White” — which all opened to mixed results.

GET ME REWRITE: These 5 GOP members of Wisconsin's US House delegation stand with Putin on Ukraine


All 5 vote 'nay'.

Headline:  Slate, 4/20/2024
It was a notable moment—and a telling one, as the House gets ready for a contentious vote on aid to Ukraine. The vote is being loudly protested by far-right politicians including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, who is pushing to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson from his role over the issue. 
It’s not the first time Republican lawmakers have accused their colleagues of essentially being Russian pawns. But as far-right rabble-rousers in the Republican Party have increasingly advocated against continued support of Ukraine—and even some mainstream Republicans no longer interpret Russian aggression as a ruthless threat to democracy and the international order—the most extreme lawmakers appear to be mirroring the Kremlin’s own propaganda.  [emphasis added}
