Vodou growing in Haiti amid increased gang violence
Amid the chaos and violence plaguing Haiti, the Vodou faithful find solace and protection in their religion, which is increasingly gaining acceptance after centuries of persecution.
As gangs terrorize communities and leave thousands homeless, many Haitians turn to Vodou priests, seeking divine intervention for urgent needs like locating kidnapped loved ones or obtaining life-saving medication.
Vodou, rooted in the country’s history as the catalyst for Haiti’s revolution against slavery, has long been suppressed by political and religious authorities, the Associated Press reported.

DNC Preparing for Worst in Chicago
President Joe Biden’s advisors are facing two pressing challenges as they prepare for their convention in Chicago: how to balance in-person and virtual elements to prevent disruptions, and how to handle a mayor sympathetic to protesters.
Some in Biden’s circle advocate for a hybrid convention, featuring both in-person speeches and pre-recorded segments, to maximize viewership while minimizing opportunities for protest.
This approach would involve moving certain party business off the arena floor and potentially conducting it before the convention begins.
Additionally, they consider reviving the pre-taped state delegation roll call from the 2020 convention to avoid potential disruptions.
However, balancing the desire for traditional in-person elements with the need to prevent disruptions presents a challenge, particularly given the expectations of delegates and donors, Politico has reported.

Michael Cohen to testify in Trump trial on Monday
Former President Donald Trump’s ex-lawyer, Michael Cohen, is expected to testify on Monday in Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case regarding a $130,000 payment made to adult actress Stormy Daniels in 2016.
This payment was allegedly to keep Daniels from disclosing a sexual encounter she claimed to have had with Trump in the early 2000s.
Cohen, who served as Trump’s personal attorney at the time, later received multiple payments of $35,000 from Trump.
Bragg’s indictment accuses Trump of falsifying business records based on these payments, arguing they were reimbursements for the payment to Daniels, Fox News has reported.

Giuliani Suspended by WABC; Radio Show Canceled
Former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani faced a suspension without pay from his WABC radio show after going on a rant about the “stolen” 2020 election.
The decision to remove Giuliani from the air came from billionaire radio station owner John Catsimatidis, who cited Giuliani’s violation of company policy against questioning the validity of election results.
Giuliani claimed ignorance of the policy and expressed frustration at losing his job, which earned him $15,000 a month.
Despite this setback, Giuliani still has other media outlets generating income, the New York Post has reported.

Steve Bannon likely heading to jail after appeals court upholds his conviction
Former chief strategist of Donald Trump, Steve Bannon, is facing the likelihood of prison time after an appeals court upheld his conviction for contempt of Congress.
Bannon had been sentenced to four months in 2022 for refusing to testify in a congressional investigation into the January 6 Capitol attack, but the sentence was on hold pending his appeal.
The decision came on Friday when the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected his challenge, affirming that Bannon’s non-compliance was deliberate, despite his claims of acting in good faith based on legal advice.
Bannon’s refusal to testify was part of a broader trend among Trump allies, who cited executive privilege.
However, the court found no merit in Bannon’s arguments and affirmed his conviction, the Daily Mail has reported.

UN General Assembly backs Palestinian bid for membership
The UN General Assembly has voted overwhelmingly to support Palestine’s bid for full UN membership, indicating growing global isolation for Israel amid concerns over the Gaza conflict and the humanitarian crisis.
The resolution passed with 143 votes in favor, 9 against, and 25 abstentions, urging the Security Council to grant Palestine full membership and enhance its current observer status with new rights and privileges.
Israel strongly opposed the resolution, with its envoy to the UN delivering a fiery denunciation. Despite not granting voting rights, the vote reflects widespread support for Palestinian statehood.
The US, along with a few other countries, opposed the resolution, while the UK abstained, The Guardian has reported.

Israel secures spot in Eurovision grand final despite protests
Switzerland and the Netherlands, both top contenders in Eurovision 2024, secured places in Saturday’s final alongside Israel, despite protests and booing during Israel’s performance.
The event in Malmo, Sweden, drew 100,000 visitors, with heavy police presence due to potential unrest.
Swiss rapper Nemo and Dutch artist Joost Klein qualified with their songs, while Israeli soloist Eden Golan’s performance faced mixed reactions.
Golan’s participation sparked controversy, with calls to exclude Israel over political reasons, but Eurovision organizers maintained it as a non-political event.
Protests from both pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli groups occurred outside the event, NBC News has reported.

Stone workshops used by craftsmen in the Middle Ages found in France
Workers in Dijon’s city center uncovered a surprising historical treasure while renovating a square as part of a redevelopment project.
Instead of the expected layers of dirt, they found sections of ancient stone just beneath the surface.
Archaeologists from the Institut National de Recherches Archéologiques Préventives discovered a line of ancient buildings, dating back to the 11th century, with walls measuring 10 to 15 feet wide.
These buildings once housed workshops, evidenced by pits with stake holes, where artisans of the time worked on their crafts, the Bradenton Herald has reported.

New telescope images reveal ghostly ‘God’s Hand’ in Milky Way reaching across the cosmos
Astronomers have captured a captivating image of what seems like a ghostly hand stretching across the cosmos towards a distant spiral galaxy, unveiling a rare cosmic phenomenon.
The Dark Energy Camera, situated on the Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile, snapped the breathtaking picture of “God’s Hand” – a cometary globule located 1,300 light-years away in the Puppis constellation.
Cometary globules, a subclass of Bok globules or dark nebulae, are solitary celestial clouds teeming with dense gas and dust, enveloped by heated, energetic material.
These peculiar structures feature elongated tails akin to comets, yet their origin remains a mystery to astronomers, CNN reported.

Chang’e-6 enters lunar orbit ahead of far side landing attempt
China’s Chang’e-6 spacecraft achieved a significant milestone by entering lunar orbit late Tuesday, marking progress toward its mission of collecting samples from the far side of the moon.
The orbiter successfully executed a braking maneuver, slowing its velocity to be captured by the moon’s gravity, as announced by the China National Space Administration (CNSA).
Launched on May 3, the spacecraft embarked on a four-day journey to reach the moon, aiming to collect samples from a region never explored before.
Utilizing its 3,000N engine, the orbiter now orbits in an elliptical path around the moon, with plans to release a cubesat named Icube-Q into lunar orbit before adjusting its orbit for a planned landing, Space News has reported.

The alleged architect of a multibillion-dollar fraud that shook Wall Street heads to trial
In the spring of 2021, Archegos Capital Management, a seemingly obscure investment firm, made headlines for its sudden and catastrophic collapse, leaving major Wall Street banks facing staggering losses of billions of dollars.
The firm, led by its founder and CEO, Bill Hwang, will now face trial for alleged racketeering, conspiracy, and fraud charges in a Manhattan courtroom.
Archegos was accused of employing deceptive tactics, such as using financial instruments known as “total return swaps,” to artificially inflate the value of certain stocks, including Viacom and Discovery. While technically legal, these practices are highly risky and controversial.
Prosecutors claim that Hwang and his team misled banks about their positions and used swaps to evade regulatory scrutiny while building massive portfolios.
Initially successful, Archegos’s fortunes took a nosedive when the stock prices plummeted, triggering demands from banks for more collateral to cover losses, CNN has reported.

GM to stop making iconic Chevy Malibu after 60 years
General Motors announced plans to discontinue production of the gasoline-powered Chevrolet Malibu later this year, aiming to focus on manufacturing new electric vehicles.
Since 1964, GM has sold over 10 million Malibus worldwide, with production set to end in November.
The company will invest $390 million in its Kansas assembly plant to produce the next-generation Chevrolet Bolt EVs, following the halt of production for the prior generation Bolt in December.
GM’s recent strategy involves a shift towards producing more crossover and sport utility vehicles, with the Malibu being the last Chevrolet car offered in the United States alongside the Corvette.
Production of the Chevrolet Camaro ceased late last year, the New York Post reported.

Georgia appeals court to hear Trump’s bid to disqualify Fani Willis
The Georgia Court of Appeals has agreed to review a decision made by a Fulton County Superior Court judge regarding District Attorney Fani Willis and her office’s involvement in the 2020 election case against former President Donald Trump.
This decision follows Judge Scott McAfee’s ruling, which allowed Willis to continue leading the prosecution despite her personal relationship with a prosecutor, Nathan Wade.
While Wade was required to withdraw from the case due to this relationship, Trump’s lawyer, Steve Sadow, announced on social media that the Court of Appeals has granted Trump’s appeal of McAfee’s decision.
The timeline for arguments in the appeal is currently uncertain. Sadow stated that Trump anticipates presenting arguments to dismiss the case and disqualify Willis for alleged misconduct, CBS News reported.

Despite health challenges, Kennedy, now an independent presidential candidate, emphasizes his vigor, engaging in athletic activities and campaign efforts.
Alongside undisclosed health struggles, such as atrial fibrillation and mercury poisoning from fish consumption, Kennedy’s past includes a bout with a parasite and a history of heart issues and hepatitis C.

Billionaires sue LA for right to demolish Marilyn Monroe’s house
Fans and conservationists rejoiced in January when the Los Angeles Cultural Heritage Commission proposed landmark status for Marilyn Monroe’s former home, aiming to save it from demolition.
However, the new owners, Brinah Milstein and Roy Bank, who purchased the property last summer with plans to demolish it and expand their estate, filed a lawsuit against the city.
They argue that the house lacks historical significance and has undergone significant alterations since Monroe’s ownership.
Despite public outcry and efforts by council members to preserve the home, the owners seek to overturn the decision to designate it as a historic cultural monument, the Los Angeles Times has reported.

Globe-trotting jewelry thief finally caught after diamond ring heist
A notorious jewelry thief, Yaorong Wan, was apprehended in Queens after executing a sophisticated diamond ring heist reminiscent of scenes from the movie “Ocean’s Eleven” in New York City.
Wan, 49, stands accused of stealing rings valued at $300,000 from Cartier and Tiffany stores in Manhattan, marking the end of his extensive criminal endeavors that spanned across continents.
Wan’s criminal journey began in South Korea in September 2018, where he allegedly pilfered a $330,000 diamond ring from a Tiffany’s store in Seoul.
He continued his spree with thefts in Beverly Hills, New York City, and other locations, including a $48,000 ring and a $10,000 watch from a Cartier store in Beverly Hills.
In New York City, Wan’s modus operandi involved skillful sleight-of-hand maneuvers. In one instance, he purportedly swapped a $255,000 diamond ring with a counterfeit cubic zirconia stone mounted on 18-carat white gold, escaping undetected from Tiffany’s.
Surveillance footage revealed his adeptness at swapping the genuine article with the fake, leaving store employees none the wiser until later inspection, the Independent has reported.
