[GP] A prosecutor in New Orleans has taken his own life just days after the city was hit by a massive terror attack carried out by a homegrown Islamist radical.
As WVUE reported Sunday, Orleans Parish Assistant District Attorney Ian Kersting was discovered dead Saturday around 9 p.m. via suicide inside the offices of District Attorney Jason Williams’ staff according to authorities. His cause of death was an apparent gunshot wound to the head.
Police said emergency medical services arrived at 619 South White St., the DA’s office building, but Kersting was already deceased. He was just 34-years-old.
Williams’ office released the following statement:
[Breitbart] An alleged intruder was shot and killed around 2 a.m. Friday after confronting an armed homeowner in Englewood, Ohio.
WHIO reported that the alleged intruder, 43-year-old Matthew Culham, after being heard making noises in the backyard.
WDTN noted the boyfriend and girlfriend who reside in the house called 911, with the girlfriend telling the dispatcher her boyfriend was retrieving a firearm. As the call continued, the dispatcher heard three shots ring out.
Police arrived to find Culham lying dead in the yard.
Englewood Police Chief Corey Follick believe the boyfriend was investigating the strange noises when Culham allegedly charged him.
Follick said, "Most burglars, if they determine that a home is occupied, once they’re detected, they normally flee the area...[but] this subject stayed on their property and confronted the homeowner when he was out double-checking to see what all may have been damaged or stolen from his property or who the person was on his property."
[IsraelTimes] North Korea ...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche... fired a ballistic missile that flew 1,100 kilometers (685 miles) before landing in waters between the Korean Peninsula and Japan, South Korea’s military says, extending its heightened weapons testing activities into 2025 weeks before Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... returns as US president.
The South’s Joint Chiefs of Staff say the missile was fired from an area near the North Korean capital of Pyongyang and that the launch preparations were detected in advance by the US and South Korean militaries. It denounces the launch as a provocation that poses a serious threat to peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula.
The joint chiefs say the military is strengthening its surveillance and defense posture in preparation for possible additional launches and sharing information on the missile with the United States and Japan.
The launch came as US Secretary of State Antony Blinken ...71st United States secretary of state and a leading light of the corrupt and inept Biden administration. He previously served as deputy national security advisor from 2013 to 2015 and deputy secretary of state from 2015 to 2017 under the corrupt and inept Obama administration. He advocated for the 2003 invasion of Iraq while serving as the Democratic staff director of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee from 2002 to 2008. He was a foreign policy advisor for the Biden 2008 presidential campaign. During his tenure in the Obama administration, Blinken helped craft B.O.'s policy on Afghanistan, Pakistan, and the nuclear program of Iran. We all saw how well each of those worked. After leaving government service, Blinken moved into the private sector, co-founding WestExec Advisors, a lobbying firm... was visiting Seoul for talks with South Korean allies over the North Korean nuclear threat and other issues.
Blinken’s visit comes amid political turmoil in South Korea following President Yoon Suk Yeol’s short-lived martial law decree and subsequent impeachment by parliament last month, which experts say puts the country at a disadvantage in getting a steady footing with Trump ahead of his return to the White House.
[IsraelTimes] Budget Committee says tens of thousands of uncovered documents, microfilms have ‘high relevance rate’ of Nazi ties; ombudsperson cites bank file dealing with looted Jewish assets
An investigation by a US Senate panel has found that troubled investment bank Credit Suisse concealed information during previous inquiries into Nazi-controlled bank accounts during World War II.
Tens of thousands of documents discovered during an ongoing examination have provided new proof of the existence of account holders linked to the Nazis, the Senate Budget Committee said in a statement released Saturday.
The bank did not reveal the existence of these accounts during previous investigations, notably in the 1990s, the committee said.
Credit Suisse, now a subsidiary of investment bank UBS, agreed in 1998 to take part in a $1.25 billion settlement of lawsuits brought by Holocaust survivors, but it has been accused of not being completely open about its past dealings with Nazis.
The Senate committee said Saturday that one set of newly discovered files, including 3,600 physical documents and 40,000 microfilms, was found to have a "high relevance rate" of Nazi connections.
It said the revelations stem from an interim report by former prosecutor Neil Barofsky, who was fired as an "independent ombudsperson" by the bank in 2022 after being pressed to limit his investigative work.
Barofsky was reinstated in the role in 2023 "as a result of the Committee’s investigation," and after UBS’s takeover of Credit Suisse.
In a letter to the panel released Saturday, Barofsky noted the "extraordinary level of cooperation that Credit Suisse, under the leadership of UBS, has provided" since he rejoined the company.
But he said Credit Suisse had yet to share all the information it held.
The Barofsky team has discovered, among other things, accounts controlled by high-ranking SS officers, the Wall Street Journal reported.
In his letter, Barofsky highlighted "especially noteworthy" discoveries from a Credit Suisse research department.
"Numerous client files in the sample are marked with a stamp stating ’Amerikanische schwarze Liste’ — meaning ’American Black List’ — a list maintained by the Allies of individuals and companies that were directly financed by, or were known to regularly trade with, Axis powers," he wrote.
"One file bearing this stamp relates to an entity that was involved in selling looted Jewish assets."
Contacted by AFP, UBS said it was committed to providing a complete record of the former Nazi-linked accounts in Credit Suisse’s predecessor banks.
It said it would provide Barofsky with all necessary assistance in his work to shed light "on this tragic period."
[DAILYMAIL.CO.UK] Justin Trudeau ...hereditary prime minister of the Great White North... resigned as the Canadian Prime Minister on Monday to cap off a spectacular fall from grace just days before Donald Trump ...dictatorial for repealing some (but not all) of the diktats of his predecessor, misogynistic because he likes pretty girls, homophobic because he doesn't think gender bending should be mandatory, truly a man for all seasons... enters office.
The move came after weeks of pressure from his colleagues in Canada's Liberal Party amid a significant, and growing, rift over how to handle relations with Trump in his second term.
Trump announced on social media after his reelection a plan to introduce a 25 percent tariff on goods from Canada, which led Trudeau into a frenzy to try and clean-up his relationship with the U.S. president-elect before he is sworn into office later this month.
The day after unveiling the idea, Trudeau, 53, immediately flew down to Mar-a-Lago to do damage control.
During that meeting, reports emerged detailing how Trudeau pleaded with Trump not to impose the tariffs and claimed it would kill Canada's economy.
To this, Trump suggested that the northern neighbors could become America's 51st state, and in following weeks mocked the Canadian leader by calling him Governor Trudeau.
The reason Trump wants to impose tariffs on Canada is to pressure Ottawa to do more to secure the border and stop leaking illegal immigrants colonists into the U.S.

I read that he has to hold the election by some time in October, though he can bring it forward. So it’s conceivable that he’ll delay as long as possible in the hope of a change in voter sentiment — he was elected three times in a row, after all, even if the last one left his party without a majority, if I understand correctly.

I don't want the US taking over Canada at the moment. I keep seeing my late former Canadian former secretary saying something like "Every time I get out, they pull me back in..."
#10
Trudeau is being forced out by his own party. He will step down from PM as soon as his party picks a replacement. No one likes him. He has no friends.
