| Women’s March Dismisses New Board Member amid Backlash over Statements Comparing ISIS to U.S. Military Posted: 19 Sep 2019 06:23 AM PDT  Zahra Billoo, who joined the board of the Women's March just several days ago, announced on her Twitter feed Thursday morning that she has been voted off the board.Billoo has a history of controversial statements on Twitter, in which she has compared the U.S. and Israeli militaries to ISIS and Nazis, once even asserting that the FBI recruits "mentally ill" people to join ISIS.The Women's March has not released a statement explaining the justification for her dismissal as of this writing.However, Billoo asserted in a tweet thread that she was voted out as a result of an "Islamophobic smear campaign led by the usual antagonists, who have long targeted me, my colleagues, and anyone else who dares speak out in defense of Palestinian human rights and the right to self determination."Addressing the controversy over her tweets, she wrote "In looking at the tweets in question, I acknowledge that I wrote passionately. While I may have phrased some of my content differently today, I stand by my words."> In looking at the tweets in question, I acknowledge that I wrote passionately. While I may have phrased some of my content differently today, I stand by my words. 15/> > -- Zahra Billoo (@ZahraBilloo) September 19, 2019Billoo stated on Facebook in 2017 that she would not go to see the movie "Wonder Woman" because of the participation of actress Gal Gadot, who served in the Israeli Defense Forces. She justified her stance by saying she would similarly not see a movie in which the lead actress was proud of being a member of ISIS, al-Qaeda, or the U.S. military.In a 2014 post on Twitter, Billoo said she was opposed to "all terrorism, including all that regularly committed by the US military and Al Qaeda, the Israeli Defense Forces and ISIS."Billoo and other new members were hired to replace three former Women's March leaders dogged by allegations of anti-Semitism. Two of these members, Tamika Mallory and Linda Sarsour, have drawn fire for their support of Louis Farrakhan, the anti-Semitic leader of the Nation of Islam.

| Trump Pushes Baseless Smear That Ilhan Omar ‘Partied’ on 9/11 Posted: 18 Sep 2019 09:54 AM PDT  REUTERSPresident Donald Trump on Wednesday used his Twitter account to boost a baseless smear claiming that Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) danced at an event last week on the anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks, a claim that's based on footage that wasn't actually taken from that day.Trump's tweet circulated a video from conservative personality Terrence Williams, in which Williams declared that Omar "partied on the anniversary of 9/11." In his video, Williams comments on footage of the Muslim congresswoman dancing and fumes that she's disrespecting the memory of the Sept. 11 attacks.But the footage of Omar dancing actually came from a Sept. 13 event hosted by the Congressional Black Caucus and wasn't taken on the 11th, as Williams and Trump wrongly claimed. Trump, however, used Williams' video to declare that Omar would help Republicans win Minnesota. "Ilhan Omar, a member of AOC Plus 3, will win us the Great State of Minnesota," the president tweeted. "The new face of the Democrat Party!" Williams' original tweet was deleted from Twitter at some point on Wednesday. Twitter confirmed to The Daily Beast that the video post was not removed by the social media site's administrators but was instead deleted by Williams or someone with access to his Twitter account.Williams did not respond to a request for comment.Omar blasted Trump's smear on Wednesday, tweeting that he has put her life in danger."The President of the United States is continuing to spread lies that put my life at risk," she wrote. "What is Twitter doing to combat this misinformation?"Trump has frequently targeted Omar with smears, inspiring death threats against the Somali-American lawmaker. In July, Trump suggested that Omar had married her own brother to commit immigration fraud—a baseless claim that's become increasingly popular on the right, despite being based entirely on a single, anonymous message-board post.

| Guatemala joins ranks of cocaine producers as plantations and labs emerge Posted: 19 Sep 2019 08:41 AM PDT  Guatemala is no longer just a transit point for traffickers seeking to smuggle cocaine north towards the United States, authorities said on Thursday after security officials discovered several coca plantations and processing laboratories. The finds underscored concerns that cocaine production is moving beyond Andean nations, where the leaf has traditionally been grown, and closer to its main market, the United States. The discoveries of coca plantations and laboratories in different locations prompted Interior Minister Enrique Degenhart to admit Guatemala was now a cocaine-producing nation.

| Michelle Malkin Smears Cokie Roberts on the Day of Her Death: ‘One of the First Guilty Culprits of Fake News’ Posted: 18 Sep 2019 12:44 AM PDT  Charley Gallay/Getty for International Innovators of Justice/American Justice AllianceHours after the world learned that journalist Cokie Roberts had passed away following complications from breast cancer, right-wing provocateur Michelle Malkin took a swipe at the reporter's legacy by calling her "one of the first guilty culprits of fake news."Taking part in a panel at the Paley Center on Tuesday, Malkin joined an array of liberal and conservative commentators and media figures to discuss whether the media is biased.At one point in the discussion, Malkin—who has recently been making the media rounds hawking her latest anti-immigrant book—took aim at Roberts."Cokie Roberts, of course, passed away today and God bless her for an incredible career that she had but I distinctly remember that she was one of the first guilty culprits of fake news," she declared."We're doing this today?" CNN chief media correspondent Brian Stelter, who was also on the panel, interjected."Yes, yes we are," Malkin confirmed."You're attacking her today," Stelter continued. "I just want to be clear: The body isn't even cold yet."Malkin, meanwhile, said her remark was "pertinent" to the issue of "fake news," bringing up an instance in 1994 when Roberts stood in front of a projection of the Capitol to do an ABC News report from the State of the Union address."This was a deliberate attempt to deceive the viewing public into thinking she was actually there live covering it," Malkin added. "Fake news has existed far longer than before President Trump even had the idea of running for office."Malkin's remarks, predictably, were not well received by the attendees, with many in the audience shouting at her to leave and go home. Tuesday was far from the first time that Malkin has kicked dirt on a prominent figure after he or she has passed away. During this year's Conservative Political Action Conference, Malkin slammed the "ghost of John McCain" for what she described as his weak immigration policies.Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

| Israeli vote leaves Netanyahu's political future in doubt Posted: 18 Sep 2019 12:31 PM PDT  After a decade of mesmerizing world leaders, subduing his rivals and eking out dramatic election victories, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's political future is suddenly in doubt. With near-final results from Israel's election on Tuesday, he has been left well short of the parliamentary majority he had sought — not only to continue in power but also to fend off a looming corruption indictment. With over 90% of the votes counted late Wednesday, challenger Benny Gantz's centrist Blue and White party captured 33 seats in the 120-seat parliament, to 32 seats for Netanyahu's conservative Likud.

| This Activist Invited ICE to a Community Meeting. Days Later They Arrested Him. Posted: 19 Sep 2019 01:51 AM PDT  Smith Collection/Gado/GettyWhen Houston immigration activist Roland Gramajo Reyes invited U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to a public meeting for people worried about being arrested due to their immigration status, he didn't think he'd end up behind bars.He was wrong. Gramajo's longtime advocacy on behalf of Houston's immigrant and Latino communities, family, attorney, and allies said, make them seriously doubt that the timing of his apprehension was an accident.Now, Gramajo, 40, is caught in a tug-of-war between law enforcement agencies seeking to either deport him after 25 cumulative years in the United States, or to first incarcerate him for improper entry into the United States, a charge that could land him in prison.Handout"His bond was denied Monday by a federal judge, so he will remain in detention while his illegal reentry charges are resolved," Raed Gonzalez, Gramajo's attorney, told The Daily Beast. "We are trying to reopen his immigration case… Many hurdles await us, but we are trying our best."Gramajo, a father of five and grandfather of two, was born in Retalhuleu, Guatemala in 1979, and first moved to Houston at age 15. Since then, he has made the improvement of the Guatemalan community and his adopted hometown his life's mission.He founded the Centro Organizativo Guatemalteco, which raises funds for humanitarian causes in Guatemala, as well as the Southwest American Systems Chamber of Commerce, which helps minority children participate in sports and beauty pageants. After Hurricane Harvey devastated the city in 2017, he took weeks off work to organize community efforts in helping those affected by the storm's flooding that caused an estimated $125 billion in damage. For his work, Gramajo has received commendations from a host of state and local organizations, including the Alief Independent School District, Houston Community College, the Golden Eagle Society, and the Houston City Council.Only days before his apprehension by ICE, Gramajo had organized a "know your rights" seminar for undocumented immigrants and their families in the city—the seminar to which he had invited immigration agents to participate. That invitation, Gramajo's defenders believe, may have unintentionally goaded ICE into looking into Gramajo's immigration status, a charge ICE has called "baseless.""To be abundantly clear, ICE personnel did not attend this Immigration Forum in any capacity—official or unofficial," the agency released in a statement last week, saying that Gramajo became a target after ICE received an anonymous tip about his status. "To portray him in one-sided media reports… as a victim of some 'covert' law enforcement operation is an insulting affront to public safety.""We're not gonna be able to comment any further on the anonymous tip" that led to Gramajo's apprehension, ICE spokesperson Tim Oberle told The Daily Beast when asked about the timing of the tip that lead to his arrest, "because it's anonymous, obviously."At the heart of ICE's deportation case is Gramajo's 1998 guilty plea to a misdemeanor charge of burglary of a vehicle, for which he was sentenced to 20 days in prison. Gramajo's family told reporters in Houston that the charge was the result of a practical joke that he had played on a friend, the vehicle's owner.After his plea, immigration authorities commenced deportation proceedings against Gramajo, culminating in his deportation to Guatemala in summer 2004. Gramajo returned months later to be with his family in Houston—including his wife and children—and has remained ever since.It's that 2004 illegal entry for which Gramajo will stand trial. If he is found guilty, he could face a six-month prison sentence before his potential deportation."My sons, they are texting me asking how is their father, and that's what hurts the most," Magaly Quicano, Gramajo's wife, told reporters in Houston last week. "I've been praying, praying praying that he will win this immigration battle."Gramajo's defenders, who count members of Houston's political establishment among their members, told The Daily Beast that the potential deportation of the father of five is disgraceful."The prospect of deporting Mr. Gramajo is outrageous," Mayor pro tem Ellen Cohen, a member of the Houston City Council, told The Daily Beast. Last year, the city council commended Gramajo as "dedicated to serving and inspiring the community," and whose "qualities represent a true leader with an exceptional drive to improve the quality of life" throughout the city."His so-called 'crime' of coming back to this country—his country—after his 2004 deportation is a result of unjust laws. If I were in his shoes, I would have tried to find a way back to my spouse and children too," Cohen added, noting that she has called upon ICE to immediately release him. "He is an asset to Houston and there is no legitimate public safety-related reason to deport him again. If ICE's concern is public safety, they should be focusing their limited resources on those who are bringing violence, drugs, and human trafficking in to our communities."Houston City Council member Steve Le, who brought forth a successful proposal last year to name May 17, 2018 as "Roland Omar Gramajo Reyes Day" in the city, called Gramajo "a good person and community leader" whose presence in the city makes it a better place to live. "Our office appreciates everything he has done for the community and recognized him with a Mayoral Proclamation for his achievements," Le told The Daily Beast. "We were surprised by his arrest and hope the court will take into account all the great contributions he has made when determining his sentencing. We look forward to a favorable outcome for his family and our community."But after a judge denied his bond in a hearing on Monday, Gramajo will remain in federal detention until trial. Even if he wins his criminal case, his presence in the United States is far from assured—if deported, Gramajo will be barred from entering the United States for 20 years."I don't know what the verdict will be, but I leave everything in the hands of God and wait," Quicano said tearfully. "No more."Read more at The Daily Beast.Got a tip? Send it to The Daily Beast hereGet our top stories in your inbox every day.

| Lebanon concludes Israeli drones were on attack mission Posted: 19 Sep 2019 05:35 AM PDT  A Lebanese government investigation concluded that two Israeli drones were on an attack mission when they crashed in the capital last month, one of them armed with 4.5 kilograms (10 pounds) of explosives, Lebanon's defense minister said Thursday. Elias Bou Saab said investigations show the drones came from over the Mediterranean Sea on Aug. 25, with one drone crashing on the roof of the militant group Hezbollah's media office in southern Beirut, while the other exploded and crashed into a nearby plot of land 42 minutes later. Speaking at a press conference in Beirut to present the findings of the investigation, Bou Saab said it was "the most dangerous act of aggression by Israel" since the monthlong war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006.

| The U.S. May Strike a Fatal Blow to the WTO Sooner Than Expected Posted: 19 Sep 2019 10:57 AM PDT ![The U.S. May Strike a Fatal Blow to the WTO Sooner Than Expected]( "The U.S. May Strike a Fatal Blow to the WTO Sooner Than Expected") (Bloomberg) -- Terms of Trade is a daily newsletter that untangles a world embroiled in trade wars. Sign up here. A U.S. lawyer who is one of the last remaining members of an international panel that rules on trade disputes may resign in December, a move that would cripple the global conflict settlement system.The voluntary departure of Thomas Graham, who has served on the World Trade Organization panel since 2011, would accelerate the appellate body's looming demise and force countries to fundamentally rethink their reliance on the WTO to settle the surging number of trade disputes.While Graham's term ends on Dec. 10, panel members in the past have stayed on to finish WTO cases they're involved in. If he resigns, the seven-member body would no longer have a quorum to rule on pending WTO appeal cases."I have not yet decided, and I am watching developments closely," Graham said in an interview at WTO headquarters in Geneva.Legal LimboPresident Donald Trump, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer and other U.S. critics argue that the WTO dispute settlement system threatens America's sovereign rights. In response, the European Union, Canada and other member countries are discussing ways to reform the appellate body to address U.S. criticism that it has strayed from its mandate.The Trump administration, which has threatened to leave the WTO, has refused to consider nominees to replace the four vacancies on the panel. The U.S. says panel members have overstepped their mandate by failing to meet its 90-day deadline to decide on appeals; permitting panel members to serve beyond their terms; and by issuing opinions on matters not necessary to resolve a dispute.Graham's departure would throw all pending and future appeals into legal limbo since there wouldn't be enough appellate members to resolve disputes. That would essentially allow for any member to veto a claim against them."I can't see the U.S. objecting to his resignation," Scott Miller, a senior adviser at the Washington, D.C.-based Center for Strategic and International Studies, said in an interview. "Tactically, the U.S. is getting what it wanted by disabling the appellate body."About a dozen appeal cases are pending, including a dispute over EU restrictions on Russian natural-gas imports and a pair of U.S.-Canadian disputes over paper and softwood lumber.It's possible that the appellate body may issue a final ruling on any of these cases before the Dec. 10 deadline. It is also likely that WTO members will ask the appellate body to include a tranche of new appeals to their portfolio between now and Dec. 10.To contact the reporter on this story: Bryce Baschuk in Geneva at bbaschuk2@bloomberg.netTo contact the editors responsible for this story: Brendan Murray at brmurray@bloomberg.net, Tony Czuczka, Richard BravoFor more articles like this, please visit us at bloomberg.com©2019 Bloomberg L.P.
