Three Washington teens could face ten years in jail after being arrested for making skid marks on an LGBT rainbow road mural while riding e-scooters.

Nineteen-year-old Ruslan V. V Turko and two unnamed minors were arrested on Wednesday for first-degree malicious mischief after vandalizing the rainbow Pride mural that sits in front of Riverfront Park located in Spokane, Washington.

Turko appeared in court on Thursday, alongside legal counsel. Prosecutors requested a $15,000 bond that would cover the approximate cost of re-painting the mural. The teen was later released on his own recognizance on the condition that he does not return to the crosswalk, or the other suspects.

Bill Maher believes Caitlin Clark is being picked on by WNBA rivals because she is heterosexual in a 'very lesbian' league.

The late-night TV host also claimed that both and sex race play their part after Clark was knocked to the ground by Chicago's Chennedy Carter.

'It’s (because) women are catty, the league is very lesbian and she’s not, and there’s race. There’s a lot going on,' Maher said following the incident, which sent shockwaves around the sporting world.

'There’s also a racial element to this... it’s not always racism when a white person succeeds.'

South Texas Judge Overturns City Council Election Due to Voter Fraud and Allegations of Fake Addresses on Voter Registrations

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/06/south-texas-judge-overturns-city-council-election-due/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=south-texas-judge-overturns-city-council-election-due

Though clips of the speaker’s conversations that day were shown as part of the previous panel’s work, and in a separate documentary by Alexandra Pelosi, much of what was handed over recently to a House Administration subcommittee has never been released. HBO didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

Despite their urgent pleas, it took more than three hours for the guard to arrive. Four former members of the National Guard — in private interviews and a subsequent public hearing in April with the current subcommittee — described a frustrating experience of being prevented for hours from being able to respond on Jan. 6 and recounted senior Army officials expressing concern about the “optics” of deploying the Guard.

But they saved their fiercest criticism for McCarthy, who they described as unresponsive to their outreach in the midst of the chaos. McCarthy and then-acting Defense Secretary Chris Miller have acknowledged in their interviews with the previous Jan. 6 committee that they had a miscommunication about the deployment. Two of the four also said that Trump could have expedited the process by cutting through the bureaucratic clutter and calling Pentagon leaders directly on Jan. 6, which by all accounts he didn’t do.
In other clips newly provided to House Republicans, congressional leaders appear confused about whether the request for National Guard assistance was denied. They ask, multiple times, if anyone has heard about it being turned down.

The U.N. Security Council on Monday approved its first resolution endorsing a cease-fire plan aimed at ending the eight-month war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.

The U.S.-sponsored resolution welcomes a cease-fire proposal announced by President Joe Biden that the United States says Israel has accepted. It calls on the militant Palestinian group Hamas, which initially said it viewed the proposal “positively,” to accept the three-phase plan.

It urges Israel and Hamas “to fully implement its terms without delay and without condition.”

The resolution — which was approved overwhelmingly with 14 of the 15 Security Council members voting in favor and Russia abstaining — also calls on Israel and Hamas “to fully implement its terms without delay and without condition.”
