Report claims Russia influenced Trump's rejection of Romney as secretary of state

Report claims Russia influenced Trump's rejection of Romney as secretary of stateA shocking memo authored by former spy Christopher Steele has recently come to light that reveals potential Kremlin influence over Donald Trump's decision-making in the months leading up to his assuming the Oval Office and U.S. presidency. A lengthy New Yorker profile on the ex-MI6 operative delves into both Steele's past and current dealings with congressional committees and special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's meddling in the 2016 presidential election. One specific excerpt from the piece is raising eyebrows, and that surrounds a Russian source that claims the Kremlin had specific recommendations for who then President-elect Trump chose as his secretary of state.

White House accuses Russia of killing civilians in SyriaThe White House has accused Russia of killing Syrian civilians in one of its most direct condemnations of Moscow’s wartime conduct. Defying a 30-day United Nations ceasefire agreement, Russia went on to “kill innocent civilians under the false auspices of counterterrorism operations”, the White House said in a statement. “This is the same combination of lies and indiscriminate force that Russia and the Syrian regime used to isolate and destroy Aleppo in 2016, where thousands of civilians were killed,” the statement said.

SpaceX successfully launched a bus-sized satellite into orbit 22,300 miles above Earth ZIA MUGHAL@ FOCUS NEWS

0 comments

  • Elon Musk's aerospace company, SpaceX, launched a Falcon 9 rocket at 12:33 a.m. ET on Tuesday.
  • The launch is the company's 50th of Falcon 9 since the rocket first flew in June 2010.
  • The mission flew a bus-sized satellite to an orbit 22,300 miles above Earth.


While much of America was asleep, Elon Musk's aerospace company, SpaceX, achieved a major company milestone on Tuesday.
In 2008, SpaceX was flirting with bankruptcy after three successive rocket failures. Now it's launched its workhorse rocket, the Falcon 9, for the 50th time as it moves to dominate the launch industry.
"Falcon 9 flight 50 launches tonight, carrying Hispasat for Spain. At 6 metric tons and almost the size of a city bus, it will be the largest geostationary satellite we've ever flown," Musk tweetedearlier on Monday.
SpaceX fired off the rocket at 12:33 a.m. ET early Tuesday morning from a launchpad in Cape Canaveral, Florida.
About 33 minutes after launch, the rocket's upper stage deployed the satellite, officially called Hispasat 30W-6, into an orbit some 22,300 miles above Earth. It will hover above the planet's surface and provide "television, broadband, corporate networks and other telecommunications solutions," SpaceX said in a press kit for the mission.

The latest launch adds to recent SpaceX milestones

Those highlights include the first-ever launch of the company's behemoth Falcon Heavy, which is the most powerful operational rocket in the world, and the deployment of two experimental satellites— a pioneering test for Musk's plan to bathe Earth in high-speed, low-cost internet access.

China says its 'moderate' defense spending rises are no threat

China says its 'moderate' defense spending rises are no threatChina's "moderate" defense spending rises in the past few years have been to make up for past deficiencies and the country's military will not threaten anyone, a senior diplomat said on Sunday ahead of the release of the defense budget. How much China spends on its armed forces is closely watched around the region and in Washington for pointers about the country's broader strategic intentions amid an impressive modernization program that has included developing stealth fighters, aircraft carriers and anti-satellite missiles. Last year military spending was budgeted to increase by just 7 percent, to 1.044 trillion yuan ($164.60 billion) about one-quarter of the proposed U.S. defense spending for the year.
