Hunter Biden indicted by special counsel on gun charges
#Newsroom #CNN #News
President Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, has been indicted by special counsel David Weiss in connection with a gun he purchased in 2018.
The charges include making false statements on a federal firearms form and possession of a firearm as a prohibited person.
It’s an extraordinary turn of events after his original plea deal collapsed and potentially sets up a dramatic trial in the middle of his father’s 2024 reelection bid. #Newsroom #CNN #News

Trudeau government to remove GST on new rental apartment builds in Canada
#GlobalNews #Canada #housingcrisis
The Trudeau government is expected to announce the removal of the GST on the construction of new rental apartment buildings in Canada, Global News has learned.
That means a 5% savings for new builds as a way to incentivize builders and increase supply during a time of high-interest rates.
However, experts have said it takes at least 2 to 3 years before a GST rebate will be felt in the Canadian housing market.
Mackenzie Gray reports from London, Ont.

#GlobalNews #moroccoearthquake
Some quarters in Marrakech currently sit in rubble and debris, 48 hours after Morocco's deadly earthquake, leaving many people without safe accommodations. The country's traditional mud brick, clay, stone and rough wood housing have added to the vast destruction.
Morocco's most powerful earthquake since at least 1900 has killed at least 2,497 people, the state news agency said in its latest update of the human toll on Monday, with thousands more injured and many still missing, particularly in the High Atlas mountains.

9/11 anniversary: Families, US officials remember those lost 22 years ago
#GlobalNews #911 #WorldTradeCenter
The families of victims of the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 gathered across New York City, Virginia and Pennsylvania on Monday to honour their loved ones and the nearly 3,000 other lives lost that tragic day, 22 years ago.
“This day is still significant in my life. I have not become complacent in knowing that this tragedy has caused a lot of pain, not only to me and my family, but to others who have experienced this horrible, horrible thing,” said Debra Epps, a woman who lost her brother during the 9/11 attacks.
U.S. officials, too, honoured the fallen. U.S. Secretary of State Lloyd Austin said that "I know that it aches to remember this milestone year after year," adding that "we will always strive to be worthy of the memory of those we lost."
Rev. Phillip Jackson, the rector from New York City’s Trinity Church on Wall Street, led a prayer service and rang the Bell of Hope, as per tradition.

Two Killings, the same day, one year apart: Why James Smith Cree Nation mourns
#GlobalNews
The Sunday of the Labour Day weekend is considered cursed by many from James Smith Cree Nation in Saskatchewan.
Not only is it the day that Myles Sanderson went on a murderous rampage through the community in 2022, killing 11 and injuring 17, but exactly one year prior, another young man shot and killed two residents and injured a third.
Both incidents are believed to have involved drug use.
Residents have created a security force to improve safety, but the James Smith Cree Nation chief says its ability to stop drug dealers is limited. Nathaniel Dove reports.

#GlobalNews #india #space
India launched its first space mission to study the sun on Saturday, two weeks after it successfully landed an uncrewed craft near the moon’s south pole.
The Aditya-L1 spacecraft took off on board a satellite launch vehicle from the Sriharikota Space Center in southern India on a quest to study the sun from a point about 1.5 million kilometres from Earth.
The spacecraft is equipped with seven payloads to study the sun’s corona, chromosphere, photosphere, and solar wind, the Indian Space Research Organization said.

Why are Russia US & India racing to space?
#usa #news #russia #india #space #nasa #elon #rocket
VIDEO INTRODUCTION: In the past 3 years, we have seen some of the most sensational space events in the world, Elon Musk has been launching rockets one after the other, India and Russia are aggressively pursuing their moon mission, US is about to launch its moon mission in 2025 and even China and Japan are preparing for the same. But while most people might think this to be yet another exploration move, Very few people realize that it has a geopolitical angle to it!! If You don't believe me, look at this, In November 2019, NATO declared space as one of the warfighting domains. France changed the name of its Air Force to the Air and Space Force and Russia combined its air force, anti-air, and antimissile defenses into the Aerospace Forces in 2015. So do you realize what's happening, Space is literally turning into a frontier of warfare!!!
So all this drama is not just scientific discovery but also about having that extra advantage during times of war!! So the space race has a very significant geopolitical implication in the 21st century!!! So the question is,
How did space suddenly turn into a frontier of geopolitical power?
Which are the most strategic points that superpowers of the world are racing towards?
and where does India stand in this drama???

Speaking with Shanghai Communist Party chief Chen Jining on day four of a bridge-building trip to China, Raimondo said on Wednesday a “stable economic relationship is good for America, good for China and good for the world”.
Gina Raimondo has ended her four-day visit aimed at cooling tension over trade and restrictions on technology exports.
