| 2 brothers change minds, will cooperate in Smollett case Posted: 25 Jun 2020 09:11 AM PDT  Two brothers who admitted helping actor Jussie Smollett stage a racist and homophobic attack in Chicago last year are again willing to help in the case after initially saying they were done cooperating with prosecutors, their attorney said Thursday.

"Abel and Ola will recommence their cooperation in the Smollett case now that the handgun has been produced by the Special Prosecutor's Office," Schmidt Rodriguez wrote, referring to Special Prosecutor Dan Webb, who is now handling the case.

| As Israel threatens West Bank annexation, Gazans recall settler withdrawal Posted: 25 Jun 2020 02:38 AM PDT  Vineyard owner Haidar al-Zahar recalls with joy the day in 2005 when Israel removed its settlers and troops from the Gaza Strip, part of a withdrawal that few Palestinians thought they would ever see. A decade and a half later he is on the warpath as Israel considers whether to annex its Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank - 40 km (25 miles) away from Gaza - which Palestinians seek as the heartland of a future state. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has set July 1 for the start of cabinet discussions on annexing parts of the West Bank, where more than 420,000 settlers live, citing Israel's security needs, and religious and historic ties to the land.

| Pakistan national airline grounds third of pilots over 'dubious' licences Posted: 25 Jun 2020 03:28 AM PDT  Pakistan's national airline will ground a third of its pilots on suspicion they hold "dubious" licences and flying certificates. The move was announced after air accident investigators blamed a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) pilot for last month's crash in Karachi which killed 99 people. A government minister said the crew were over confident and distracted by a conversation about coronavirus when the PIA Airbus A320 crashed on May 22. PIA was highly placed among world airlines until the 1970s, but its reputation has sunk with delays, cancellations and financial troubles. The airline has been embarrassed by reports of pilots falling asleep, or turning up drunk. "We've been told that an investigation conducted by the civil aviation authority has found that about 150 of our pilots have dubious licenses," company spokesman Abdullah Khan told Reuters. Investigations into pilot qualifications began after an earlier crash where it was found the pilot's license may have been fake. The test date indicated on his licence had been a public holiday. Another pilot was found to have been out of the country on the day he was said to have been tested, Mr Khan said. In 2017 a PIA pilot was investigated for potentially putting the lives of more than 305 passengers at risk by putting a trainee pilot in charge while he took a nap in a passenger seat. The pilot was allegedly photographed reclining while covered in a blanket, but denied being asleep. In 2013, a PIA pilot was jailed for nine months in Britain for being drunk as he prepared to fly 156 passengers. Irfan Faiz, 55, was found three times over the legal limit, prosecutors told Leeds Crown Court. The father-of-two was unsteady on his feet and smelled of alcohol while in the cockpit during checks for the flight from Leeds Bradford to Islamabad. The airlines was embarrassed further in 2017 when first UK border officials and then Pakistani officials found consignments of heroin hidden on PIA flights between the countries. At the time the airline was investigating to see if any staff had links to drug traffickers.

| Race relations in Wisconsin capital are a tale of 2 cities Posted: 25 Jun 2020 02:50 PM PDT  In this college town that considers itself a bastion of progressive politics and inclusion, race relations are really a tale of two cities. Demonstrators who toppled statues of figures with no racist history this week say they went after the sculptures because they wanted to shatter a false narrative that the state and the city support Black people and racial equity. "The crowd at large was absolutely conscious of the political motivations," protester Micah Le told The Associated Press in a text, referring to the statue of the Civil War abolitionist Hans Christian Heg and another sculpture of a woman with her arm outstretched that honors the state's "Forward" motto.

| 'Please for the love of God do not vote for my dad': Republican's daughter voices opposition Posted: 26 Jun 2020 09:20 AM PDT  Robert Regan blames daughter's 'socialist university' but says he's 'happy she feels confident' to oppose him publiclyIt's not the usual rallying cry one might expect from a political candidate's child as their father runs for office, but the daughter of a Republican candidate has urged people in Michigan to "please, for the love of God" not vote for her father."Tell everyone," Stephanie Regan wrote in a viral tweet – which has now been liked more than 180,000 times on Twitter.In a follow-up tweet, she called on voters to research the background of her father, Robert Regan, for themselves, writing: "I don't feel safe rn sharing further information regarding his beliefs, but please look him up and just read for yourself."Regan is running in Michigan's primary for a state house seat this August.> if you're in michigan and 18+ pls for the love of god do not vote for my dad for state rep. tell everyone> > — STEPH (@streeganz) June 23, 2020Stephanie Regan's words seem to have come as a blow to her father, who has espoused a commitment to his family on his campaign website, using multiple photos of himself and his children to support his campaign.Robert Regan has spoken on local TV since his daughter sent out the tweet, blaming her liberal college education for her views."When they go off to college, quite frankly they get involved with these Marxist, socialist universities ,and they start getting indoctrinated with things that are completely polar opposite from where you raised them," Regan told local TV.Regan, who describes himself on his own website as "so conservative [he] makes Rush Limbaugh look like a liberal," says he and his daughter have disagreed on systemic racism, white privilege and Black Lives Matter."She's a big believer in that," he told the Hill. "The only place where I really see systemic racism would be the abortion clinic, because they seem to target the African American community."His tone seems to have taken a turn since Thursday, when he posted a lengthy statement to Facebook that seemed appreciative of his daughter's political engagement."I am happy that she feels confident enough in our relationship to express her opposing thoughts so publicly" while encouraging her and others to voice their own opinions, he said. * This article was amended on 26 June 2020 to correct a misspelled name in a photo caption.

| Barr Reportedly Told DOJ Officials to Try and Undermine Michael Cohen’s Conviction Posted: 25 Jun 2020 06:11 PM PDT  The same day that Attorney General William Barr insisted there is "no pattern" of him working to advance the personal interests of President Donald Trump, several sources cited by The New York Times said one of his first moves after being sworn into office in early 2019 was trying to find ways to undermine the conviction of longtime Trump fixer Michael Cohen. Barr had reportedly repeatedly questioned prosecutors over the charges against Cohen, who pleaded guilty in August 2018 to financial crimes that included hush-money payments to women who alleged they had affairs with Trump. He went so far as to instruct Justice Department officials to draft a legal memo casting doubt on the legitimacy of Cohen's conviction, according to sources cited by the Times, but they refused to do so.Meanwhile, in an NPR interview published Thursday, Barr scoffed at the notion he has been promoting Trump's agenda at the expense of the rule of law, calling it a "media narrative" and saying there is "no such pattern." He went on the defensive in the interview multiple times. Barr has made several controversial interventions into cases involving President Donald Trump's associates. In early May, he chose to drop the Justice Department's case against Trump's former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, a decision that elicited blistering criticism, as Flynn had already pleaded guilty. Though Michael Flynn was the president's National Security Adviser, Barr denied any political pressure to drop the charges against him: "I don't know whether I would refer to him as a friend of any administration," he said. And though Flynn admitted to lying to the FBI, Barr still cast the charges against the retired general as ludicrous: "There was a lot of hinky stuff in the Flynn case. Everyone knew that. Everyone was wondering why was this case ever brought?" When asked about the chaotic removal last week of Geoffrey Berman, the former U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York who was involved in investigating many of Trump's allies, Barr dismissed the move as nothing more than a standard personnel decision. "I certainly was aware that given the current environment, anytime you make a personnel move, you know, conspiracy theorists will suggest that there's something, there's some ulterior motive involved. But I felt this was actually a good time to do it because I was not aware of anything that should in reality, give rise to that," he said. He said Berman was "living on borrowed time from the beginning." Despite insisting he treats all cases equally, he apparently could not name a single case not tied to the president's inner circle where he had staged a last-minute intervention similar to that in the Flynn case. When pressed about the president's executive power, Barr echoed the commander-in-chief's rhetoric and attempted to redirect the conversation. He scolded the press for failing to scrutinize state governors, who, in order to fight the new coronavirus, have been "putting the entire population in home detention and telling people that they have to shut down their livelihood and their business," he said. The president has often said that the measures taken against the coronavirus are worse than the sickness itself. Barr reiterated another Trump talking point when he said that an election with a high number of mail-in ballots can take place securely. He said the evidence was "obvious."

| Why are California's Covid-19 cases surging? Here's what we know Posted: 26 Jun 2020 03:00 AM PDT  Infections and hospitalizations are on the rise as the state reopens, with a record 7,149 people testing positive on TuesdayCalifornia's early, aggressive response to the coronavirus pandemic had earned praise from the top US health officials, and even Donald Trump. But after avoiding the scenarios faced by New York and New Jersey, the state has seen infections and hospitalizations swell in recent weeks.As malls, museums, bars and other public spaces reopened, Governor Gavin Newsom has urged citizens to wear masks and keep their distance from one another to slow the spread of disease. "I cannot impress upon people more the importance at this critical juncture," he said, "to take seriously this moment."Here's what we know about the situation. How big is the coronavirus surge in California?Big. Overall, the state has reported more than 195,500 cases since the pandemic first struck, with 5,700 deaths. California marked a record 7,149 people who tested positive on Tuesday, a figure that dropped on Wednesday to 5,349."Part of the surge we're seeing is due to increased testing," said Dr Lee Riley, an epidemiologist at the University of California, Berkeley. California has tested roughly 3.7 million people since the beginning of the pandemic, and more than 101,000 tests were processed on Wednesday."But the fact that the number of hospitalizations are also increasing means that there's more going on," Riley said. As of Thursday, the number of patients hospitalized with Covid-19 is 32% higher than it was two weeks ago, Newsom reported. The number of patients in intensive care also increased 19% over the past fortnight – more than a third of ICU beds available across the state are now occupied by coronavirus patients. Over the past two weeks, about 64 people have died of the virus each day."I think pretty much every place has rushed to reopen," said Dr Anne Rimoin, an epidemiologist at UC Los Angeles. "And as we reopen, of course we're going to see more cases." Where are infections surging?The number of cases appear to be increasing throughout the state, but the biggest surges in infections are in Los Angeles county and other parts of southern California.Los Angeles now has more cases than anywhere else in the country, with more than 89,600 infections reported, according to the Johns Hopkins tracker. Rural communities like Imperial county, at the US-Mexico border, and Stanislaus, in the Central Valley, are also seeing surges in both the total number of cases recorded and the proportion of residents who are testing positive.Bay Area communities – including Santa Clara county, the first in the nation to enact a shelter-in-place order – are also seeing surges, though the proportion of positive tests in the region remains far below the state average.Officials have attributed the surge in some parts of the Bay Area to workplaces, including an outbreak at a waste management company in Marin county. Since mid-May, outbreaks at prisons have been excluded from the state's Covid-19 tracking data, but it is worth noting that a devastating outbreak at San Quentin state prison, where an inmate transfer led to more than 500 new cases, and outbreaks at other facilities across the state would add about 850 more new cases logged in the past two weeks to the state's totals. Why are infections surging?It's not totally clear, though public health experts and officials blame large gatherings where people are not wearing masks and not maintaining a 6ft-radius, even as adherence to these safety measures becomes increasingly political."There's a group of people who go around bragging that they're practicing individual freedom by not wearing masks," Riley said. "These people are not practicing freedom – they're practicing pure selfishness."While reopening society can never be risk free, Riley said that countries that have been most successful at containing the virus have been far more vigilant than California in mandating mask-wearing, hygiene and physical distancing. In South Korea, where fewer than 300 people have died despite reporting more cases in February than any country besides China, a second wave of infections has remained relatively small despite restaurants, schools and even nightclubs reopening, Riley noted. "Small clusters of cases are much easier to contain by isolating those who are infected, notifying those who are exposed," he said. "What we're seeing in California is a lost opportunity to reopen carefully."An uptick in the number of cases among young people is also a concern, Riley said. While people in their 20s, 30s and 40s are less likely to die from Covid-19, they can get seriously ill, and they "can be sources of infection for older people who are most at risk: their grandmas, their grandpas, their buds with diabetes and their friends with high blood pressure". Healthy young people who show few symptoms could pass the virus on to those who are most at risk of suffering complications. What will this mean for re-opening?In order to safely reopen, no more than 5% of everyone in a community who gets tested for Covid-19 should receive a positive result, according to the World Health Organization.California's threshold for reopening is that no more than 8% of all tests should come back positive. While the positivity rate for the state overall hovers at a tenuous 5.1%, the rate in some southern California counties is nearly 9% or higher.Governor Newsom said the state might have to "revert back" to tougher restrictions if the situation gets worse. What do doctors want Californians to know?Officials and health experts are pleading with Californians to continue to wear masks, wash hands, and stay 6ft apart. Health agencies in some counties are encouraging residents to keep their social circles small – limited to "bubbles" of no more than a dozen friends – and gather outdoors.In Imperial county, which borders Mexico and Arizona, defiance of a statewide mandate to wear face masks and lax social distancing appears to have exacerbated a crisis both within and across state and national borders. "Whether people here brought infections to Yuma, Arizona and Mexicali, or whether they brought it back from those places is kind of immaterial at this point," said Dr Thomas Henderson, director of the Imperial County Medical Society. "What we're seeing here is craziness."The crisis has overwhelmed local hospitals, he said. "It's just a horrible time to be a physician" he added, because doctors have found themselves pleading with the community to wear masks and stay safe, "but it's all become so political".As Donald Trump and rightwing politicians and media outlets derided masks as unnecessary, Dr Anthony Fauci, the health official leading the US response to coronavirus, told Californians who were skeptical of covering their faces in public to "forget the politics. Look at the data." A string of new research released this summer suggests that masks can reduce the risks of spreading the virus, even if they're far from foolproof."It's totally understandable to want to get back as quickly as possible to what you perceive as normal in your life," Fauci said at an event hosted by the Sacramento Press Club. But he urged Californians to stay vigilant, nothing that reopening isn't "black or white, either no restrictions or locked down".
