      Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker Calls Up National Guard After Milwaukee Unrest

      Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker activated his state’s National Guard on Sunday to help police in Milwaukee if violent protests persist following the fatal shooting of a man by officers who said he was fleeing a traffic stop. At least four businesses were burned and one police officer was hurt in violence that broke out Saturday night a few hours after the officer-involved shooting. Walker said he took the step after receiving a request from Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke and talking with Mayor Tom Barrett and the Guard’s leader.

      Palestinian stabs Israeli soldier in West Bank: army

      A Palestinian stabbed and wounded an Israeli soldier near Jenin in the occupied West Bank on Sunday and was arrested, a military spokesman said. A wave of violence in the Palestinian territories and in Jerusalem since last October has resulted in the deaths of 219 Palestinians, 34 Israelis, two Americans, an Eritrean and a Sudanese, according to an AFP count. Most of the Palestinians killed were carrying out knife, gun or car-ramming attacks, Israeli authorities say.

      Trump looking to institute political tests for immigrants

      Donald Trump will declare an end to nation building if elected president, replacing it with what aides described as "foreign policy realism" focused on destroying the Islamic State group and other extremist organizations. In a speech the Republican presidential nominee will deliver on Monday in Ohio, Trump will argue that the country needs to work with anyone that shares that mission, regardless of other ideological and strategic disagreements. Any country that wants to work with the U.S. to defeat "radical Islamic terrorism" will be a U.S. ally, he is expected to say.

      Florida woman's hand almost bitten off by alligator

      Kimberly Ann Sexton, 49, was airlifted to a local hospital following the incident on Friday evening and underwent immediate surgery, according to a report by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. “She sustained a severe hand injury that was almost a full amputation of the right hand in the wrist,” Broward Sheriff and Fire Rescue spokesman Mike Jachles told the Sun-Sentinel newspaper. A spokeswoman for North Broward Medical Center, where Sexton was taken, said that she was listed in stable condition in the hospital’s intensive care unit.

      Black students seek nonwhite roommates, spark race debate

      When a classmate challenged this roommate criteria, the Pitzer College student who posted the notice on Facebook doubled-down. “It’s exclusive [because] I don’t want to live with any white folks,” wrote Karé Ureña, who is black. The latest Facebook controversy is a continuation of the ongoing dialogue about the creation of "safe spaces" for marginalized communities in Pitzer, neighboring colleges in the Claremont system, and colleges across the country.

      Mother Allegedly Drowns Son, 7, and Daughter, 5, Then Puts Their Bodies Beneath Neighbor's Home

      A Texas woman allegedly killed her two young children and then left their bodies beneath a neighbor’s home on Sunday in a seemingly random act of violence that has left loved ones devastated. Sheborah Thomas, 30, was charged with capital murder in the deaths of her son and daughter, identified by relatives as 7-year-old Oraylan and 5-year-old Kayana. Thomas allegedly told an acquaintance that she drowned her children in a bathtub and then left them under a neighbor’s home when she found burying them to be too difficult, Houston police spokesman Kese Smith told reporters.

      Venezuelans cross reopened border to Colombia for food, medicine

      By Anggy Polanco SAN ANTONIO, Venezuela (Reuters) - Thousands of Venezuelans were welcomed to Colombia by a military band early on Saturday morning as the two countries' borders were officially reopened after being closed by Venezuela a year ago. Some people had traveled across Venezuela to queue overnight hoping to cross to buy food and other basics that are in short supply in Venezuela, which is steeped in an economic crisis. "I came with my family to do some shopping because we can't find anything to eat," said Wilmary Salcedo, a 17-year-old engineering student who had traveled some 500 miles (800 km) from the central city of Maracay hoping for rice, sugar and cooking oil.
