U.S., Canadian authorities announce new arrests in efforts to prosecute fugitive Ryan Wedding

U.S. and Canadian authorities announced new arrests, indictments and sanctions on Wednesday in their continuing efforts to locate, arrest and prosecute Canadian ex-Olympic snowboarder turned fugitive Ryan Wedding, who allegedly leads a transnational crime network.

Appearing at a joint news conference in Washington, D.C., with Canadian authorities, U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi said authorities have worked closely with international partners. Ms. Bondi unsealed a new indictment outlining new charges, including murder and witness tampering, against more of Mr. Wedding’s alleged associates and increased the reward for information leading to Mr. Wedding’s arrest from $10-million to $15-million.

A Chinese firm bought an insurer for CIA agents – part of Beijing’s trillion dollar spending spree

Since 2018, the United States has been tightening its laws to prevent its rivals from buying into its sensitive sectors – blocking investments in everything from semiconductors to telecommunications.

But the rules weren’t always so strict.

In 2016, Jeff Stein, a veteran journalist covering the US intelligence community, got a tip-off: a small insurance company that specialised in selling liability insurance to FBI and CIA agents had been sold to a Chinese entity.

Why the real target of Trump’s campaign in Venezuela is Cuba

When the attorney general of the United States took personal charge of Operation Mongoose, he declared it America’s “top priority”, saying “no time, money, effort or manpower” was to be spared.

The official in question was Robert Kennedy and the supreme objective that mattered more than anything else was toppling Fidel Castro and “liberating” Cuba from Communist rule.

Operation Mongoose and its famously futile campaign of subversion began in November 1961, inspiring plenty of Hollywood movies but not the dawn of freedom in Cuba.

Federal agents arrest 130 people in Charlotte immigration crackdown

Federal agents have arrested 130 people in two days in Charlotte, North Carolina, the latest city to face President Donald Trump’s crackdown on immigration, according to a US official.

Tricia McLaughlin, assistant secretary for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), told the BBC that a number of the people arrested are criminals and gang members. But local leaders say the operation is doing more harm than good.

DHS said a US citizen allegedly injured an officer by ramming a law enforcement vehicle with their car.

White House considers political asylum for British ‘thought criminals’

Livia Tossici-Bolt Pro-Life Advocate

The White House is considering offering political asylum to British “thought criminals”, The Telegraph understands.

Donald Trump’s administration is exploring the possibility of extending refugee status to free speech activists who have been prosecuted for their words or for taking part in silent protests outside abortion clinics.

The censoring of pro-life campaigners Livia Tossici-Bolt and Adam Smith Connor raised particular concerns among the president’s key allies.

America’s Crime Divide Is Racial, Regional, and Ruthless – The whitest states sleep soundly. The ‘diverse’ ones don’t sleep at all.

America’s crime map is not random. And it is not evenly distributed. It forms a pattern, a persistent outline that says more about the country than any campaign speech or census brochure ever could. When you trace the safest states in America, you trace a corridor of calm: New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont’s shadow, Idaho’s long sweep of farms and foothills. Places where the pace is steady and the population overwhelmingly white. When you trace the most dangerous states, the pattern changes just as sharply — a concentration of chaos in states marked by sprawling cities, fractured communities, and the kind of “diverse” demographic makeup polite society insists you never mention.

Miranda Devine: FBI, Secret Service butchered the Thomas Crooks case and invited conspiracies – we deserve the truth

We are all owed a better explanation from the FBI and Secret Service about the attempted assassination of Donald Trump 16 months ago at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa.

The president himself remains unsatisfied with the answers he’s been given about the circumstances leading to 20-year-old Thomas Crooks climbing on a rooftop with an AR-15-style rifle and firing eight times at Trump, narrowly missing his head but hitting his ear.

Nigeria’s Christians beg Trump for help before they are wiped out as bodies pile up and villages disappear

Nigeria’s Christians are being pushed to the brink of extinction – and could be wiped off the map within two generations without urgent international intervention.

That’s the chilling warning from Emeka Umeagbalasi, the outspoken founder of Nigeria’s International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety). And he’s not mincing his words.

The veteran activist says a silent, systematic genocide has swept Africa’s most populous nation for nearly two decades – a ‘long-running, coordinated campaign’ of killings, kidnappings and church burnings carried out mostly by Islamist militants and enabled by the Nigerian state itself.

At 16, I was experimented on by the CIA and now I’m suing

CIA linked Allan Memorial Institute in Montreal

The first thing Lana Ponting remembers about the Allan Memorial Institute, a former psychiatric hospital in Montreal, Canada, is the smell – almost medicinal.

“I didn’t like the look of the place. It didn’t look like a hospital to me,” she told the BBC from her home in Manitoba.

That hospital – once the home of a Scottish shipping magnate – would be her home for a month in April 1958, after a judge ordered the then-16-year-old to undergo treatment for “disobedient” behaviour.

Surprise! Here’s Where Your Taxes to Help ‘Homeless People’ Actually

All over the country, big-hearted Americans have generously given their tax dollars to ostensibly “help the homeless.” California, swimming in tax dollars, lost track of more than $24 billion of homeless spending. Spending on homelessness is being plundered. A new study confirms that at least some of those tax dollars are being hijacked and delivered to extremist political groups.

Border czar Tom Homan blasts Catholic bishops over deportations

White House border czar Tom Homan criticized the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops on Friday after they issued a statement earlier this week opposing “the indiscriminate mass deportation of people.”

“The Catholic Church is wrong,” Homan told reporters at the White House. “I’m a lifelong Catholic, but I’m saying it not only as a border czar, but I’m also saying this as a Catholic,” he added.
