Biden lifts restrictions on Ukraine using US weapons to strike deep inside Russia.
Making it up? The Mujahadeen didn't "win". Gorbachev decided to leave. You must have proof of Putin saying that, to make out it's a fact. No proof and it's not true. -

Los Angeles Takes a Stand as an Immigration 'Sanctuary'
Los Angeles, the second-largest city in the United States, is positioning itself in direct opposition to President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration policies. The city council is set to pass a "sanctuary city" ordinance that would prevent local resources from being used to assist federal immigration authorities. Alongside this move, the Los Angeles public school system plans to declare itself a "sanctuary" for undocumented immigrants and LGBTQ students through emergency resolutions. Trump, who will take office in two months, has vowed to implement mass deportations. His chosen "border czar," Tim Homan, a former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, has strongly criticized sanctuary cities. Homan recently told Fox News, "Nothing will stop us from deporting migrant criminals. We're going to do the job with you, or without you." These statements echo Trump's campaign rhetoric targeting sanctuary cities, where local governments limit cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Sanctuary city designations are not legally defined but reflect various local approaches, such as altering policing practices or enacting specific laws. Last week, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass released a draft of a long-anticipated sanctuary city ordinance. According to council member Nithya Raman, the ordinance aims to codify a 2019 executive order into city law by barring federal immigration enforcement from using city facilities or resources. Raman explained to CBS News that the ordinance also seeks to restrict data sharing, further safeguarding undocumented immigrants within the city. Other cities, including Boston and New York, have pledged similar commitments to resist federal immigration enforcement. Los Angeles’ efforts extend to its school system, located approximately 140 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. The school board will vote on emergency resolutions that directly challenge anti-immigrant and anti-LGBTQ sentiment, which board president Jackie Goldberg attributes to the incoming administration. “We’re not going to be running in fear,” Goldberg told the *Los Angeles Times*. “We’re going to fight you, every inch of the way.” One resolution reaffirms the district’s commitment to immigrant students, families, and staff, framing Trump’s election as the victory of a candidate with an anti-immigrant and anti-LGBTQ+ agenda. The school board is also considering implementing a high school course to educate students on current events and extending existing non-discrimination policies to cover not just students but also their families, employees, and relatives. California’s laws already prohibit schools from inquiring about students' immigration status, reflecting the state's sizable population of mixed-status families. Although federal law mandates public schools to enroll all eligible students, much of the governance is left to states and local districts. The Los Angeles resolutions seek to fortify protections in the face of what local leaders see as looming threats from the federal government. Based on a report by BBC 2024-11-20 -

Quick Arrest! Man Caught After Snatching 4 Baht of Gold
In a swift operation, police apprehended a 27-year-old man who snatched gold necklaces weighing four baht and attempted to flee a mall in Bangkok. The suspect was intercepted near the roadside shortly after the incident, thanks to vigilant citizens and rapid police action. On November 18, around 15.00 officers from the Bukkhalo Police Station, including Pol. Col. Chattakit Phadungchanthanai and Pol. Lt. Col. Prasert Chana-akson, arrested Thanus “Art” Prasakha, a resident of Kalasin province. The arrest took place near Soi Somdet Phra Chao Taksin 40 in Thonburi District, Bangkok. Police seized three gold necklaces weighing four baht in total, concealed in the left front pocket of the suspect’s black jacket. The man was charged with robbery after he confessed to snatching the items from a gold shop located at the Big C Dao Khanong branch. The incident began when the suspect entered the gold shop pretending to shop for necklaces. After requesting the staff to display several pieces, he seized three gold necklaces and fled on foot. The store immediately alerted the police, providing a description of the suspect, who was wearing a black jacket and jeans. Acting on the tip-off, a police team rushed to the area and spotted a man matching the description running away near the mall. Citizens who witnessed the theft were also pursuing the suspect, shouting for assistance. The officers quickly intercepted him, leading to his arrest. During questioning, Thanus admitted to the robbery, revealing he had concealed the stolen necklaces in his jacket. He stated that he had taken advantage of an opportune moment during the shop staff’s distraction. The gold necklaces were confiscated as evidence, and the suspect was informed of his rights and charges before being handed over to investigators for legal proceedings. The police have since praised the cooperation of the public and the prompt response of officers, ensuring the suspect was caught before he could escape further. Picture from CCTV -- 2024-11-20 -
