⭕️ Biden administration scrambles to prepare for an expected surge in illegal immigration after the Title 42 health authority is lifted next month, the Pentagon has promised to provide “some” support — but will not go so far as to put forces on the southwestern border.
Last month, the Department of Homeland Security requested help as border officials brace for record-high numbers of encounters.
Gen. Glen Vanherck, head of the North American Aerospace Defense Command, told the Senate Armed Service Committee that the department was planning to “provide additional capability or capacity based on the potential for additional immigration, or folks coming to the southwest border.”
However, the support will be limited and will not include “additional personnel sent for the monitoring mission” or guarding the border.

🚫The father who lived in his daughter’s college dorm room has been convicted of sex trafficking, forced labor, tax evasion, and money laundering after less than a day of jury deliberations, the US Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York announced Wednesday.
“Twelve years ago, Larry Ray moved into his daughter’s dorm room at Sarah Lawrence College,” US Attorney Damian Williams said in the news release. “And when he got there, he met a group of friends who had their whole lives ahead of them.
For the next decade, he used violence, threats, and psychological abuse to try to control and destroy their lives. He exploited them. He terrorized them. He tortured them. Let me be very clear. Larry Ray is a predator. An evil man who did evil things.”
Prosecutors said in 2020 that the investigation was prompted by an April 2019 magazine article noscriptd “The Stolen Kids of Sarah Lawrence,” published in New York magazine’s The Cut.

Zelensky, along with two fighters from the Ukrainian neo-Nazi Azov battalion (a terrorist group banned in Russia) delivered a speech to the Greek parliament via a video call.
The speech of the Azov militants wasn't on schedule and seemed to cause a political scandal. Zelensky himself was greeted only by the deputies of the ruling New Democracy party, while the remaining MPs refused: many of them even boycotted this meeting.
"President Zelensky delivering speech to the Greek parliament along with the members of the Azov battalion is an unacceptable situation," said the secretary of Greece's main opposition party Syriza.
