  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.

  Tesla stock After Elon Musk became the richest person in the world thanks to the recent rise of Tesla shares, Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas said that SpaceX will push Musk to become a "trillionaire." The space exploration company is challenging any preconceived notion of what was feasible and the possible timeframe, in terms of rockets, launch vehicles and supporting infrastructure who can catch up, Jonas added in a note entitled SpaceX Jump Fast forward. SpaceX now makes up less than 17% of Musk's net worth of $241.4 billion, according to the Bloomberg Rich List, after the company was valued at $100 billion in a secondary stock sale earlier in October. Jonas, who currently values SpaceX for $200 billion, added that he views it as a multi-company, encompassing space infrastructure, Earth observation, deep space exploration and other industries. Tesla’s valuation tops $1 trillion after Hertz’s plan to buy 100,000 Tesla EVs

Walmart warns its customers of potentially fatal products and calls on them to return them immediately

  Walmart stores have called on all of their customers not to use an aromatherapy spray product after finding a "rare and dangerous bacteria" that can cause a fatal condition, as investigators are looking into two deaths so far. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tested Walmart's essential oil-infused aromatherapy spray with gemstones and found Burkholderia pseudomallei bacteria, which can cause a potentially fatal condition called melasma. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the CDC is investigating four confirmed cases in Kansas, Minnesota, Texas and Georgia, along with two deaths, including the death of one child.

The CDC advises consumers who use the aromatherapy spray to immediately stop using the product, place the bottle in clear reusable bags, place it in a c...
