Telegram channel about cosmonautics “Yura, I’m sorry!” writes that Artemiev, who was training at the SpaceX base in Hawthorne, California, was suspended last week. The cosmonaut allegedly photographed SpaceX engines and other internal materials of SpaceX on his phone, after which he took the materials from the base.

54-year-old Oleg Artemyev, according to data from the website of the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center, made three flights into space and spent a total of 560 days there. Since 2019, he has been a deputy of the Moscow City Duma, a member of United Russia.

California: States’ Rights – No Secret Police Act – “Bans” ICE Face-masks! (21.3.2025)

In a statement Saturday, Assistant Secretary of Homeland Security Tricia McLaughlin denounced the new laws signed by Newsom as “despicable” and “a flagrant attempt to endanger our officers.”

Legal experts said the measures may offer limited protection to immigrants and will likely face constitutional challenges from the federal government.

Kevin Johnson, an immigration law professor and former dean of the UC Davis School of Law, stated that the legislation may have a marginal impact on federal enforcement operations.

He noted that a 2018 California law restricting immigration arrests at superior court buildings did not stop the Trump administration from detaining people at courts this year.

“The federal government is going to continue doing what it’s doing, in one form or another,” Johnson said. “I do think the legislation gives some hope and optimism to communities that feel under fire, vulnerable and basically hated by the federal government.”

Protesters at the scene also chanted “shame on you” at National Guard soldiers who created a perimeter around the federal building. Meanwhile, many locations have been taken over by more and more demonstrators and a main freeway running through the city has been blocked.

Shortly after the clash, California Governor Gavin Newsom urged protesters to remain peaceful.

“California — Don’t give Donald Trump what he wants. Speak up. Stay peaceful. Stay calm,” Newsom wrote in an online post. “Do not use violence and respect the law enforcement officers that are trying their best to keep the peace.”

National Guard troops sent by the Trump administration arrived in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday morning, according to the U.S. Northern Command. The 79th Infantry Brigade Combat Team from the California National Guard deployed approximately 300 soldiers to three separate locations in the greater Los Angeles area.

The union’s members voted last month to authorize a strike to protest the university’s controversial response to pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus, which they said has caused unsafe work conditions and violated their free speech rights.

The first UC campus that stood up and withheld labor was UC Santa Cruz where academic workers walked off the job on May 20. The walkout spread to UC Los Angeles and UC Davis on May 28, and further expanded to two more campuses, UC San Diego and UC Santa Barbara, on Monday.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrations have been spreading at colleges and universities across the United States amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza. Hundreds were arrested in crackdowns on pro-Palestinian protests and encampments on UC campuses across the state. Around 50 people were arrested on May 15 during police crackdown on a pro-Palestinian protest encampment at UC Irvine.

Email: To Pray or Not to Pray – that is the Question! (17.4.2024)

17/04/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

Since the Tories came to power in 2010 – Christian prayers have been re-introduced throughout all kinds of otherwise Secular government and schooling programmes – on the grounds that this activity represents “British” tradition. My children are not Christian (like half of their class) – but have no choice but to attend the Morning Assembly and being forced to participate in Christian Prayers, etc. Buddhists, Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Jews and atheists, etc. have no choice. The idea is that the UK is a “Christian” State rather than a “Secular” State (Cromwell abolished the original Church of England).
