  The jury in the "Kyle Rittenhouse" case is already on its second day of deliberations. The jury in the "Kyle Rittenhouse" case is already on its second day of deliberations On Wednesday in Kenosha, Wisconsin, jurors began their second day of deliberations in the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. The jury deliberated all day Tuesday without reaching a decision, and they notified the court that they would return in the morning to complete their investigation. In the August 2020 shootings in Kenosha that killed Joseph Rosenbaum and Anthony Huber and injured Gaige Grosskreutz after a tumultuous night of protests following the police death of Jacob Blake, Rittenhouse faces five felony counts.

Biden extends sanctions against Turkey over its actions in Syria

announced that US President Joe Biden

GBC News: The White House announced that US President Joe Biden has extended sanctions imposed on Turkey over its military operation against Kurdish armed units for another year.

"The situation in Syria and the situation related to it, especially the actions of the Turkish government represented in the military offensive in northeastern Syria, undermine the campaign to defeat ISIS," the statement said.

He added that Turkish operations "endanger civilians and threaten peace, security, and stability in the region, and continue to pose an extraordinary and exceptional risk to the national security and foreign policies of the United States."

It is for this reason that the state of emergency declared under Executive Order No. 13894 issued on October 14, 2019, must remain in effect beyond October 14, 2021. I therefore extend the state of national emergency declared under the Executive Order.

It is noteworthy that Washington, during the era of former US President Donald Trump, imposed sanctions on Turkey, due to the “Peace Spring” operation launched by the Turkish army with the participation of Syrian opposition factions in October 2019, to expel Kurdish units from the area east of the Euphrates River in northern Syria, which Turkey sees that arming it near its borders threatens Turkish national security.

Donald Trump due to the wave of immigrants coming across the Mexican border poisoned the United States

  Former US President Donald Trump said the United States was "poisoned" by the wave of migrants coming across the border, and called for the resumption of construction of the border wall with Mexico Our country is poisoned by the millions of people who illegally stream across our borders, and in most cases have not been questioned or stopped,” Trump said in a statement. "Many of those who streamed across the border are criminals from prisons that have been emptied in other countries, and most of them are very dangerous people," he said. And he added, "Our country is dying from within, and no one is doing anything to help it. The first thing that must be done quickly is to complete the wall."
