Drawing on his experience as a Capitol Police officer injured on January 6, 2021, Harry Dunn has launched a campaign for an open U.S. House seat in Maryland, vowing to dismantle Donald Trump’s immigration policies. Dunn directly links the aggression he witnessed from immigration agents to that of the January 6th mob, citing federal immigration actions as “terrorizing people more than serving.” His campaign emphasizes a need for a “first responder” in Congress, arguing that current leadership is enabling harmful practices, particularly within the immigration system, which he contends is targeting non-criminals rather than those who pose a threat. Dunn is prepared to return to Washington with legislative power to challenge what he describes as ongoing falsehoods and misrepresentations of critical events.

An Argentine judge has requested the extradition of former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro from the United States, where he faces narco-terrorism charges. This request stems from an investigation into alleged crimes against humanity, including the harsh crackdown on protesters and political opponents, pursued under the principle of universal jurisdiction. While Argentina’s foreign ministry must present the request to the U.S. administration, compliance is deemed unlikely given Maduro’s ongoing federal trial in New York. This legal action represents a significant milestone for human rights advocates and Venezuelan victims who have come forward to speak out.

The Milan Attorney General’s Office has registered its first suspect in an investigation into alleged organized trips from Europe to Sarajevo during the Bosnian War, where individuals reportedly paid to shoot civilians. An 80-year-old former truck driver is under investigation for repeated voluntary homicide, with prosecutors alleging he, in collusion with others, fired sniper rifles from hills surrounding the city, causing the deaths of defenseless civilians including women, the elderly, and children. The investigation, spurred by a writer’s complaint and corroborated by former intelligence officials and a documentary, also implicates participants from France, Switzerland, and Belgium, exploring motives considered particularly abhorrent.

A French hospital found itself in an unprecedented situation, requiring a dramatic evacuation when a patient presented with a rather explosive predicament: a World War I artillery shell lodged in his rectum. The discovery, made during surgery at the Rangueil Accident and Emergency unit in Toulouse, sent shockwaves through the medical facility and necessitated the immediate involvement of bomb disposal experts. The patient, a 24-year-old man, had apparently sought medical attention after experiencing considerable pain over the weekend.
The specifics surrounding how the man acquired such a formidable item and the circumstances of its insertion remain largely a mystery. Local reports suggest that upon admission, the patient did not immediately disclose the nature of the object causing his distress.… Continue reading
North Koreans are facing severe punishments, including public executions and labor camp sentences, for consuming South Korean media such as popular dramas like “Squid Game” and music by artists like BTS. These harsh penalties, particularly for teenagers and those without financial means, highlight the North Korean government’s extreme crackdown on foreign information.

The documentary “Melania,” released theatrically, garnered $7 million in its opening weekend in the US. This release coincided with a dramatic surge in viewership for Michelle Obama’s 2020 documentary “Becoming,” which saw over 13,000% increase in views. While “Melania” struggled internationally and received a low Rotten Tomatoes score, “Becoming” maintained a high critical reception. The director of “Melania,” Brett Ratner, addressed past accusations of misconduct. The former First Lady, Melania Trump, promoted her film by referencing a hostage negotiation captured on camera, later clarifying it was not a promotional event.

The article explores Robert Kagan’s assertion that the United States is heading towards or is already experiencing a dictatorship under Donald Trump. Kagan points to actions such as the dismantling of federal agencies, the politicization of the Justice Department, and attempts to federalize elections as evidence of authoritarian tendencies. He also connects current political trends to a historical strain of white Christian supremacy in America, arguing that these antiliberal views have resurfaced and are driving the movement towards authoritarianism. Furthermore, Kagan contends that Trump’s disregard for international alliances and his transactional approach to foreign policy are weakening America’s global standing and leading to a more dangerous, multipolar world.

Karp, as many in the corporate world know, is a pretty influential lawyer, someone who routinely advised company boards and top business leaders, including folks like Leon Black, the co-founder of Apollo.… Continue reading
