Police union, Judiciary Committee, and a whole host of Community Members representing the black lives Matter Movement in d. C. Now, you may remember the mayor has always blamed this 40 rise in murders here in d. C. On repeat offenders. So her solution was to have Police Search parolees and their homes at any time.

Reporter this was a lot more than a courtesy call. It was a thanks for everything and i mean everything call. With Vladimir Putin effectively becoming [indiscernible] he smiled like he hasnt smiled in years. It calls terrorist forces oppoed to assad but the attacks have largely been outside isis controlled territories and against other antiassad forces, some of them supported by the u. S. And the west.

The russian president hailed the syrians for standing up to the militants, he said, almost on their own. They never have been on their own. Assad has been supported by the iranians and allies from lebanon. And the introduction of russian jet bombers with dubious intent may prolong the war rather than bring it closer to an end.
