Suspect Arrested Near U S Capitol After Officers 'Nearly Struck' By Vehicle - Duration: 13:06.
Suspect Arrested Near U.S. Capitol After Officers 'Nearly Struck' By Vehicle
In Washington, D.C., U.S. Capitol Police say they have arrested a suspect after an incident
Wednesday in which a driver "nearly struck" police officers and shots were fired.
The officers observed an "erratic and aggressive" driver near the U.S. Capitol on Independence
Avenue and tried to carry out a traffic stop, Capitol Police communications Director Eva
Malecki told CNN.
"While attempting to stop the vehicle on Independence Avenue, the driver negotiated a U-turn and
fled the scene, nearly striking officers, and struck at least one other vehicle," she
said.
"A brief pursuit followed until the vehicle was stopped at Washington and Independence
Avenues SW."
Shots were fired as the officers were working to arrest the suspect, Malecki told the network,
adding that "no individuals were injured during the arrest."
It's not clear who fired the shots.
Information about the suspect was not immediately released.
Additionally, Malecki stated that "although preliminary, this incident appears to be criminal
in nature with no nexus to terrorism."
The Capitol complex remained open to the public, though Independence Avenue was closed to traffic.Melania
Trump Is Honoring These 13 Women for Their 'Exceptional Courage'
First Lady Melania Trump will bestow the State Department's International Women of Courage
award on Wednesday to 13 women from around the world who are working to advance peace,
security, and women's rights in their home countries.
"It will be my great honor to share a stage with these amazing women.
Each of the award recipients has overcome incredible odds in her pursuit to change the
world and make it better," the first lady said in a statement ahead of the awards ceremony.
"As women, we must continue to stand together with the steadfast goal of making our world
safer through acts of collaborative and individual bravery.
As we all know, wherever women are diminished, the entire world is diminished with them."
The award, which was inaugurated in 2007 by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, recognizes
women who have "demonstrated exceptional courage and leadership in advocating for peace,
justice, human rights, gender equality, and women's empowerment, often at great personal
risk."
Each U.S. embassy can nominate one woman for the award; this year the winners hail from
countries like Bangladesh, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Syria, Iraq, Turkey, Vietnam,
Yemen, and Peru.
Since 2007, over 100 women from more than 60 countries have won the award.
Subscribe to The World's Most Powerful Women, Fortune's daily must-read for global businesswomen.
The first lady will be joined by Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Thomas A. Shannon.
In past years, the secretary of state has often participated in the ceremony.
Rex Tillerson, currently in that role, is not expected to attend the event Wednesday.
When former Secretary of State John Kerry gave the award to 14 women last year, one
honoree, Chinese human rights activist Ni Yulan, was prevented from visiting Washington
by Chinese authorities.
"Every door opened by our vision will inspire others, and strengthen the platform on which
women and men of courage may stand for generations to come," Kerry said.
In 2013, Michelle Obama joined him at the ceremony.
"With every act of strength and defiance, with every blog post, with every community
meeting, these women have inspired millions to stand with them and find their own voices,"
she said.
Michelle Obama also participated in 2011 ceremony, when Hillary Clinton, then secretary of state,
presided over the annual event.
In her speech to the award-winners, Clinton praised them for having "reached down deep
and done what was necessary.
And I often wonder how many of us, including myself, under those circumstances, could have
done the same.
Their courage, their compassion, their commitment, their quiet moral authority has come from
putting the well-being of others before their own."
Melania Trump's participation in Wednesday's award ceremony is an important marker for
the first lady, who's gotten off to a slow start in her new job and has chosen to remain
primarily in New York while her son, Barron, finishes the school year.
Among this year's award recipients are women who have made herculean commitments to protecting
women and children around the world.
Jannat Al Ghezi, deputy director of The Organization of Women's Freedom in Iraq, helps women
escape domestic violence by offering them shelter, training, protection, and legal services.
Yemen's Fadia Najib Thabet protects children from radicalization and recruitment; Syria's
Sister Carolin Tahhan Fachakh is being honored for her dedication to the women and children
of Damascus, where she has remained throughout the Syrian conflict to run a nursery school
and tailoring workshop to support displaced women; and Colombia's Natalia Ponce de Leon
lobbied for a law to increase penalties for assailants who use chemical agents after a
stalker attacked her with sulfuric acid, burning her face and body.
The legislation also improves burn treatment for victims.
Here's the full list of honorees:
Sharmin Akter, Activist Against Early/ Forced Marriage, Bangladesh
Malebogo Molefhe, Human Rights Activist, Botswana Natalia Ponce de Leon, President, Natalia
Ponce de Leon Foundation, Colombia Rebecca Kabugho, Political and Social Activist,
Democratic Republic of Congo Jannat Al Ghezi, Deputy Director of The Organization
of Women's Freedom in Iraq, Iraq Major Aichatou Ousmane Issaka, Deputy Director
of Social Work at the Military Hospital of Niamey, Niger
Veronica Simogun, Director and Founder, Family for Change Association, Papua New Guinea
Cindy Arlette Contreras Bautista, Lawyer and Founder of Not One Woman Less, Peru
Sandya Eknelygoda, Human Rights Activist, Sri Lanka
Sister Carolin Tahhan Fachakh, Member, Daughters of Mary Help of Christians (F.M.A.), Syria
Saadet Ozkan, Educator and Gender Activist, Turkey
Nguyen Ngoc Nhu Quynh, Blogger and Environmental Activist, Vietnam
Fadia Najib Thabet, Human Rights Activist, Yemen
Two women being honored at the ceremony hail from countries temporarily banned under President
Trump's second executive order on immigration.
(The executive order was blocked by federal judges, there's a chance it will ultimately
be upheld.)
After being awarded the State Department's prize, the thirteen honorees will travel to
different cities across the U.S. in April as part of an International Visitor Leadership
Program, reconvening in Los Angeles for a final summit and discussion.WikiLeaks Founder
Just Warned Conservatives To Brace Themselves For Next BIG Drop — And It's BAD
This past week, WikiLeaks released a treasure trove of information regarding the CIA and
its connection to the Obama administration.
What was once a conspiracy theory became fact, and to understand the magnitude of it all
will take some time.
Sadly, we don't have that luxury after what Jullian Assange revealed in his latest broadcast
recently.
We are now aware that the CIA has gone rogue.
It is sickening to know that these people are spying on the American people.
Companies such as Apple and Samsung are painfully aware that the CIA has the ability to hack
into their systems.
Assange has announced that he would help these companies regain control over their products.
"So I want to announce that after today, considering what we think is the best way
to proceed and hearing these calls from some of the manufacturers, we have decided to work
with them to give them some exclusive access to the addition technical details that we
have so that the fixes can be developed and pushed out, so people can be secure," Assange
said during the press conference broadcast via Facebook Live.
Assange also touched on how this lack of control has caused destructive ramifications.
"The Central Intelligence Agency lost control of its entire cyberweapons arsenal," Assange
said.
"This is an historic act of devastating incompetence to have created such an arsenal
and stored it all in one place and not secured it."
Assange also added.
"There's absolutely nothing to stop a random CIA officer" or even a contractor
from using the technology.The technology is designed to be unaccountable, untraceable;
it's designed to remove traces of its activity."
You can watch the entire video here.
No matter what is done to secure these devices, the CIA still has this ability.
Who is to stop these rogue agents from continuing to use these hacking tools?
This is terribly frightening and I know for myself I feel very uneasy.
As a political writer who is to say that they cannot place "Russian fingerprints" on
my devices in order to silence me or my coworkers?
This is the time for us to speak out and continue resisting these totalitarian tactics.
They know their number is up and we must root them out once and for all.
H/T [ Western Journalism ]Trump Just Got The GREATEST News Of His Presidency— His Plan
Worked Even BETTER Than Expected!
The year 2017 will go down in history as "The Great Snowflake Melting".
Ever since Trump won the election liberals across the country have been left in a state
of disarray.
Trump has not wasted any time on rebuilding our country much to the chagrin of the left.
It seems that Trump's hard work is already paying off with this latest news, and it will
leave you cheering.
Jorge Ramos, a Univision anchor recently was interviewed by CNN's Anderson Cooper.
Ramos said that there was a huge decrease in border crossings last month, and the number
is astounding.
According to The Blaze:
According to The Blaze:
"Jorge, the massive drop in border apprehensions last month, the customs border protections
says 40 percent, it's down 40 percent, people trying to cross illegally.
What do you make of that?"
Cooper asked.
"Is it possible that the tough talk on illegal immigration by Trump is working, that he deserves
credit for that drop?"
"Let me just say that fear is stronger than any wall," Ramos responded.
"What we are seeing right now is the 'Trump effect.'
" He continued:
These people calling their relatives and their friends, saying, "don't come here, this
is not the right moment."
So I think it is possible.
Really no one wants illegal immigration, not even undocumented immigrants.
It is very risky for them.
It is better to do it in a legal way.
You can watch the entire interview here.
This is fantastic news and it proves that Trump has been correct along.
The American people want our borders secure and we do not want anyone just coming in.
Of course, the left will continue to push that these people are not illegal, but they
are.
Illegals have finally got the message that the days of taking advantage of our country
are over.
Now, tell me, did that bring a smile to your face?
Because I am sure as hell smiling too.

"Wait is this the first video @gucci1017 & I ever shot for a song?

Tuesday and Car Rambles - Duration: 4:15.
Welcome back to Tuesdays on Halcyon Hooligans.
My name is Jonah.
I am your Tuesday host.
This week on Halcyon Hooligans we are talking about our favorite places.
Man oh man it is fitting that I am in my car because guess what?
My car is one of my absolute favorite places to be.
I have several favorite places, and I'm going to share just a couple of them, but definitely
my favorite place is my car.
I live in a super beautiful area, and driving places in my car and just like taking everything
in, parking somewhere, getting out and wandering around is one of my absolute favorite things
to do.
My car's name is Roxie.
She takes me to where I need to go.
She takes me on the adventures I love to have.
It was really hard on me because when I had surgery I was unable to drive for a few weeks,
and I couldn't just get in my car and go somewhere.
I was very cooped up, and I had really bad cabin fever.
It was awful.
So besides my bed, my car is probably the number one place that I spend time in.
I really liked what Ally had to say about her favorite places just being places that
she felt safe, and I feel really secure in my car, and I like being able to go somewhere
and just like get away by myself or share that with somebody if I want to share that
with somebody.
I live right on the Mississippi River, and there's a beautiful like waterfront there
that you can like go and walk on and then there's like a little beach area.
And it's just, it's so beautiful and like no matter what season it is, it's it's just
like so lovely to go and look at everything that's there.
It's just so calming and so nice.
So I love going to the waterfront, I love going to the state parks, I love just being
in my car and going for drives around my city.
My last favorite place is my favorite coffee shop.
The vibe, the atmosphere, the employees, everything in this coffee shop is amazing.
I love going there.
There was a time in my life where I was going there like four to five times a week even
though they're only open six days a week.
And I was spending so much money and I didn't even need to.
It's not like I was craving lattes every day.
It's not like I was wanting to spend five dollars every day on a latte, but I just loved
the atmosphere in there so much that I wanted to go there all the time just to get away
from my house.
And it was a little absurd how much money I was spending there, and then I finally was
like okay, slow down.
And now it's like just a once every couple of weeks kind of treat.
I love being in there and drinking my lattes and sitting in a window seat and watching
out the window at all the cars and just people watching in the actual place itself.
They all make me feel very safe and just very like mmm very content like a nice warm hug.
Speaking of warm hugs, I wanted to mention that I am so pleased with all of the videos
from last week's topic of childhood memories.
It was so wonderful hearing all of your memories.
I love hearing other people's stories and the things that they've bothered to remember
I suppose.
So I just wanted to say I really loved everybody's video, and it just like made my heart feel
so nice and it felt like a warm hug in itself.
I'm still trying to figure out how I want to address everybody's videos because obviously
I want to reply to them, but I don't know if I want to do that in a video style at a
section of my video or if I want to reply in a comment or how I want to do that.
I'm still trying to iron that out, but I just wanted to say in general I loved everybody's
videos last week.
As far as media goes, oh my goodness, Spotify has a Discovery Weekly playlist feature where
basically they make you a playlist based on the things they think you might like according
to the things you've been listening to.
And I never really used to listen to it.
Um and lately it's been more of a boredom thing.
If I get bored of what I'm listening to, I'm like "Ah I guess I'll listen to Spotify Discover
Weekly."
And I found this artist a couple of weeks ago when I was listening to Discover Weekly
and I've just been listening to that artist more and more.
And the artist is called The Cinema, and they have this song called "The Wolf", and it's
so wonderful.
It just makes me feel like I'm in some kind of indie film, and ah god it's just so awesome.
I love it so much.
I don't know what platform you like to listen to your music on, but I will leave a link
to the Youtube version as well as the Spotify version down below.
So go check that out because The Cinema is awesome.
It's raining quite a bit here and my cashew latte is empty, so I think I'm going to head
home.
I hope you have a great week.
Um Lauren I will see you tomorrow, and the rest of you will see me next Tuesday per usual.
Thank you so much for watching.
Peace.
