| Haiti: photojournalist shot in face as senator opens fire outside parliament Posted: 23 Sep 2019 11:30 AM PDT  * Jean Marie Ralph Féthière draws handgun amid chaotic scenes * Chery Dieu-Nalio avoids serious injury; another man woundedTwo men including a photojournalist have been shot and injured by a Haitian senator who opened fire outside the country's parliament, amid chaotic scenes as the government attempted to confirm the appointment of a new prime minister.Chery Dieu-Nalio, an Associated Press photographer, was wounded in the face and a second man, Leon Leblanc, a security guard and driver, was also injured in the incident in the country's capital, Port-au-Prince, on Monday.Although doctors were reported to be removing bullet fragments from Dieu-Nalio's face, the injuries are said not to be life-threatening.Before leaving the scene, Leblanc told reporters he had seen Jean Marie Ralph Féthière, a senator from the north of the country, draw a handgun as he tried to leave the parliamentary precincts through a crowd of protesters.Another senator, Patrice Dumont, said Féthière warned the crowd he would shoot if they did not let him leave. Féthière later justified his actions, without actually admitting firing his weapons. He told Radio Mega, "I was attacked by groups of violent militants. They tried to get me out of my vehicle. And so I defended myself. Self-defence is a sacred right."Armed individuals threatened me. It was proportional. Equal force, equal response."He said he did not know a journalist was present, even though Dieu-Nalio was wearing a helmet and flak jacket inscribed with the word "Press".Photojournalist Chery Dieu-Nalio holds a healing gauze next to his mouth. Photograph: Andrés Martínez Casares/ReutersThe incident came as the Haitian senate attempted to meet for the second time in two days to confirm the appointment of a new prime minister, Fritz-William Michel.President Jovenel Moïse is attempting to force through the appointment so he can leave the country to speak at the UN this week. His departure has already been delayed since Sunday.Haiti has been convulsed for a week by demonstrations against Moïse and the government, strengthened by fury at a serious fuel shortage and the rising cost of living.Protesters have blocked roads the length and breadth of the Caribbean nation, using trees, rocks, burning tyres and cars and trucks.Michel's nomination has already caused violence in the parliament, with politicians hitting each other with chairs and fists in the national assembly.Two years into his five-year term, Moïse is widely discredited. Annual per capita income is $350 a year and inflation is currently standing at 19%. Fuel price rises and their associated effect on food, have left Haitians to the point of despair.Even before the recent wave of unrest, Haitians have been saying the current situation is more serious than the Duvalier dictatorships, the US invasion or the 2010 earthquake. "I can't remember a situation this bad," said Leslie Voltaire, a former presidential candidate and adviser to two former presidents.Tensions had been rising outside the senate since early on Monday.The senate president, Carl Murat Cantave, had given instructions to the police that only senators would be allowed in to the senate precinct with one driver and two police-appointed security agents.People run as Haiti's Senator Jean Marie Ralph Féthière holds a gun in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Photograph: Andrés Martínez Casares/ReutersWithin hours he was criticising the police on Radio Magik9, saying they could not contain the crowds and there was chaos in the yard. Separately the senator Jean Rigaud Belizaire complained the senate's rooms had been smeared with a liquid resembling faeces.Senators, realising that the session would not happen and the ratification would have to be delayed again, began trying to leave to shouts of "thief, thief, thief."Cantave himself was reported to be confined to parliament, having to retreat in his car under a barrage of rocks.In a separate incident, in the town of Gonaïves, the offices of Cantave's foundation were attacked and destroyed.Demonstrators continue to move through Port-au-Prince, as rumours swirled that there would be other attempts, possibly at another location, to ratify Michel.

| UPDATE 2-Air strikes in Yemen hit Houthi territory, Houthis fire ballistic missile Posted: 24 Sep 2019 04:17 AM PDT ![UPDATE 2-Air strikes in Yemen hit Houthi territory, Houthis fire ballistic missile]( "UPDATE 2-Air strikes in Yemen hit Houthi territory, Houthis fire ballistic missile") Air strikes blamed on the Saudi-led coalition killed at least 16 people in Yemen's Houthi-controlled Dalea province on Tuesday, two residents and the Houthi-run al-Masirah TV said.

| U.S. calls Michael Avenatti request to subpoena Nike a 'fishing expedition' Posted: 24 Sep 2019 08:02 AM PDT  U.S. prosecutors urged a Manhattan federal judge to reject Michael Avenatti's request to subpoena Nike Inc, calling it a "fishing expedition" unrelated to a criminal case accusing the embattled lawyer of extortion. In a letter late on Monday, prosecutors said they and Nike had already turned over 3,360 pages of documents to Avenatti, and the added materials he wanted were irrelevant to his knowledge or state of mind when he allegedly broke the law. Prosecutors accused Avenatti of threatening to publicize claims that Nike arranged for payments to elite college basketball recruits, unless the athletic wear company paid him more than $20 million and hired him to manage an internal probe.

| Chuck Todd Tells GOP Senator: ‘Don’t Gaslight Us’ on Ukraine-Biden Posted: 24 Sep 2019 04:11 PM PDT  Moments after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced on Tuesday that the House is moving forward with an official impeachment inquiry of President Donald Trump, MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd found himself in a fierce exchange with Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) in which he accused the GOP lawmaker of "gaslighting" his audience.Kennedy said that it's only fair to investigate the allegations about Joe Biden's son Hunter's business activities in Ukraine—along with accusations that Trump withheld military aid to Ukraine to pressure the president into launching a probe of the Bidens."It's hard to believe the concern about Hunter Biden by some of these folks making this case," Todd responded. "If they were so serious about this, I'm trying to figure out why nobody from the FBI has been contacted. Not a single person.""I don't understand why Rudy Giuliani thinks it's better to investigate an American by outsourcing it to a country that apparently they also didn't trust," the Meet the Press host added. "Do you see why I'm skeptical that the Hunter Biden stuff is really that serious? If they were serious about it, you go to the FBI, you don't go to an oligarch in Ukraine."Ukraine Likely to Reopen Probe of Hunter Biden Firm: SourcesKennedy said that Todd didn't know for a fact that the FBI hadn't been contacted—before parroting the narrative that Giuliani and the president have been pushing since the story of a whistleblower complaint against Trump broke wide open.This led to Todd and Kennedy tangling for the next few minutes. The MSNBC anchor asserted that there's no "there there" with Biden-Ukraine, while Kennedy declared that there hasn't been an investigation of it—likening Hunter Biden to a "bank robber" and calling Trump a "policeman who beat up the bank robber suspect."After Todd repeatedly noted that there is no evidence that Joe Biden got a Ukrainian prosecutor fired at the behest of his son, he accused Kennedy of playing an old political game: "We have no idea if it's true but make them deny it.""I agree, Chuck, and if you were right, I would agree with you. If you were right, I would agree with you. But you're wrong, this hasn't been investigated," Kennedy exclaimed. "Just because you think that the—I'm not alleging the vice president did anything wrong. But I'm just telling you the American people are looking at this and going, okay, umm, Mr. Biden—""Do you think whataboutism—how does that have anything to do with the president of the United States going to another world leader and saying, open up an investigation on my chief political rival?!" Todd shot back.After Kennedy claimed that it has to do with "Ukranian corruption," the MSNBC anchor let out a soft chuckle, retorting: "I am trying to be fair here, but you can't gaslight us, sir. Don't gaslight us!""I'm not gaslighting you," the Louisiana lawmaker contended. "I'm telling you the facts. Do you deny those facts, do you think they got Hunter Biden's name off Zip Recruiter? I don't. I don't think the American people do. I'm not alleging impropriety. I'm saying we need to look into it!"Eventually, Todd would end the lengthy and tense segment by telling Kennedy he wasn't going to allow a false equivalency to take over" and that he's "just trying to present this fairly without gaslighting the nation."Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

| US patience with Iran not inexhaustible, warns Saudi Arabia Posted: 24 Sep 2019 02:35 PM PDT  Saudi minister says military response to attack on oil facilities still being considered 'When push comes to shove there comes a point when even America's patience runs out,' said the Saudi foreign affairs minister, Adel al-Jubeir. Photograph: Amr Nabil/APSaudi Arabia has said that US patience with Iran is not inexhaustible and warned military options are still being considered following the attack on the Aramco oil facilities earlier this month.The Saudi foreign affairs minister, Adel al-Jubeir, also said the UN-commissioned report into the origins of the attack will be available fairly soon, and described the EU's Monday statement ascribing responsibility to Iran as "very significant".His remarks suggest Saudi Arabia is still putting private pressure on Donald Trump's administration not to limit his response to the 14 September attack to further sanctions and the deployment of additional troops to defend the oil facilities.Jubeir said: "We want to mobilise international support, and we want to look at a whole list of options – diplomatic options, economic options and military options – and then make the decision."Speaking on the margins of the UN general assembly in New York, he said: "This action will have consequences and Iran must know this."He added: "When push comes to shove there comes a point when even America's patience runs out – and Iran must be aware of that."The attacks temporarily knocked out over 5 per cent of global oil production and caused petroleum prices to rise.Also at the UN, the French president, Emmanuel Macron, said he was hoping for a breakthrough with Iran over the possibility of reopening talks in the coming hours, but the Iranian president, Hassan Rouhani, denied he was willing to drop his demand that US sanctions are lifted before talks can begin.Macron told the general assembly: "I am not naive at all and I don't believe in miracles. I believe it takes courage to build peace and that is why it is important for the United States, Iran and the signatories of the agreement to show this courage."But Jubeir set out a series of tough conditions for renegotiating the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, including fresh restrictions on its nuclear program after 2025, a 24/7 inspection regime all over the country and restrictions on its ballistic missile program.The demand, he said was "no nukes, no missiles and no terrorism", adding: "The Europeans were coming round to this being the objective. We believe appeasement does not work with Iran. We believe that when Europeans did not take a strong position after the attacks on the pipelines and oil field in Shaybah (in August), this emboldened and encouraged Iran."Although Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for the attacks on the Abqaiq and Khurais facilities, Riyadh, Washington and the EU have laid the blame on Iran.The US said it had expected Monday's statement by the UK, France and Germany, stating that Iran was behind the attack, because European and US investigators are examining weapons fragments together in Saudi Arabia."I really appreciate that our allies … have come forward and recognised publicly the truth," the US assistant secretary of state for the near east, David Schenker, told journalists."This did not come as a major surprise. The Brits and the French are on the ground with us with the Saudis and the UN, part of the investigative team in Saudi Arabia," Schenker said. "We have been transparent in terms of chain of custody … of all the equipment that we now have from the attack. And we're exploiting it together."Even before we have finished this investigation, the evidence that is emerging is incontrovertible."The US has been insistent that it would not carry out a retaliatory strike, but would beef up Saudi defences and increase other forms of pressure on Iran.Trump on Tuesday called on other nations to join the US in pressuring Iran after the attacks, but said there was still a path to peace.

| Department of Homeland Security Effectively Ending ‘Catch and Release’ of Illegal Migrants Posted: 24 Sep 2019 11:15 AM PDT  The Trump administration announced Tuesday that a combination of restrictive immigration policies has effectively concluded the status quo "catch and release" system that prevailed under the Obama administration.Acting Secretary Kevin McAleenan explained during a speech before the Council on Foreign Relations that the vast majority of migrant families who enter the country illegally will no longer be eligible for "catch and release" due to the implementation of policies such as the "Migrant Protection Protocols," which require that migrants wait in Mexico while their asylum claims are being adjudicated, and extended migrant detentions periods."With some humanitarian and medical exceptions, DHS will no longer be releasing family units from Border Patrol Stations into the interior," McAleenan said Tuesday. "This means that for family units, the largest demographic by volume arriving at the border this year, the court-mandated practice of catch and release, due to the inability of DHS to complete immigration proceedings with families detained together in custody, will have been mitigated. This is a vital step in restoring the rule of law and integrity to our immigration system."The Trump administration has taken various steps in recent months to eliminate so-called "pull" factors that incentivize illegal immigration. In addition to implementing the Migrant Protection Protocols, the administration has also established licensing agreements with family residential centers that will allow authorities to detain family units for longer than the 20 days prescribed by the Flores agreement.Beginning next week, the administration will officially transition to returning virtually all migrants to Mexico "swiftly" if they are unable to establish a credible fear of returning to their home country.McAleenan said last month that border crossings have declined 43 percent since May, when arrests between ports of entry at the southern border increased for the fourth straight month to 132,887, up from 99,304 arrests in April.In April, the White House requested $4.5 billion in emergency funds from Congress to deal with the increasing flow number of migrants illegally crossing the southwest border. Agencies warned earlier this year that they are overwhelmed by the influx of migrants turning up both at ports of entry and between them.
