| Hoda Muthana: Isis bride says she is allowed to return to US despite government denials - ‘I’m not a threat to America’ Posted: 04 Mar 2019 10:46 AM PST  Hoda Muthana, who left Alabama at the age of 19 to join the terror group Isis in Syria, said she is "not a threat to America" and wants to return to the US as her lawyer battles her case in court. Speaking to CBS News in northern Syria, Ms Muthana claimed to be a US citizen, rejecting denials from Donald Trump's administration, while noting the son she had with a now-deceased Isis fighter does not hold citizenship to any country. Ms Muthana has been held by Kurdish forces allied with the US since January, when she turned herself in amid the caliphate's decline.

| Two sisters aged 5 and 8 'miraculously' found after 44 hours in Californian wilderness Posted: 04 Mar 2019 03:48 AM PST  Armed with some outdoor survival training, granola bars and pink rubber boots, five- and eight-year-old sisters survived 44 hours in rugged Northern California wilderness before they were found dehydrated and cold but in good spirits on Sunday, authorities said. A fire chief and firefighter from a local volunteer department found Leia and Caroline Carrico in a wooded area about 1½ miles (2.3 kilometres) from their home in the small community of Benbow, where they had last been seen Friday afternoon, Humboldt County Sheriff William Honsal said. Benbow is about 200 miles (320 kilometers) northwest of Sacramento. The girls were "safe and sound" and uninjured, thanks in part to survival training they got with their local 4-H club, Mr Honsal said. "This is an absolute miracle," he said. "This is rugged territory, this is an extreme environment. How they were out there for 44 hours is pretty amazing." The sisters were last seen on Friday outside their home in California Credit: Humboldt County Sheriff's Office via AP A photo of one of the girls posted by the sheriff's office and already being widely shared on social media shows her wearing pink rubber boots, dirty jeans, a long pink shirt and a woolen cap. She is standing while a firefighter kneels down and talks to her. One person commented that "she looks like a seasoned outdoor gal" while another said, "those little adventurers will sure have a story to tell!" Mr Honsal said the girls were given fresh warm clothes, water and food and were being assessed but were in good spirits and doing well. "A lot of us didn't get any sleep the last 48 hours or so," Mr Honsal said. "To have a positive outcome like this is just absolutely amazing ... These girls definitely have a survival story to tell." He said the firefighters who found the girls had followed their boot prints. The firefighters were part of a massive search of a vast and rugged rural area that included a dozen agencies, including the National Guard, helicopters and tracking dogs. Rescuers were hopeful about finding the girls Saturday after they came across prints from their boots and wrappers from granola bars, Lt. Mike Fridley said. "The wrappers showed us a direction from where they started to where the wrappers ended up at," Mr Fridley said. Mr Fridley said he was the one who got to call the girls' mother and tell them her daughters were alive. "She melted on the phone," he said.

| Mueller Hammers Manafort's Lack of Remorse as Sentencing Nears Posted: 05 Mar 2019 02:40 PM PST  In their final submission to U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III in Alexandria, prosecutors working for Mueller accused the former chairman of President Donald Trump's 2016 election campaign of shifting blame to "everyone from the Special Counsel's Office to his Ukrainian clients." The filing came in response to Manafort's bid for leniency. "Manafort suggests, for example, that but for the appointment of the Special Counsel's Office, he would not have been charged in connection with hiding more than $55 million abroad, failing to pay more than $6 million in taxes, and defrauding three financial institutions of more than $25 million dollars," prosecutors said. Manafort, 69, faces as long as 24 years in prison after being convicted of bank fraud, tax fraud and failing to disclose offshore bank accounts to U.S. authorities, following a trial last year.

| Alabama tornado: rescuers continue search after twister kills 23 Posted: 05 Mar 2019 12:26 PM PST  * At least three children killed as officials say toll could rise * Town of Beauregard wrecked by 170mph, mile-wide twisterRescue workers are continuing to search parts of rural eastern Alabama despite declining hopes of finding any more survivors after six tornadoes ripped across the state killing 23 people, including three children, and leaving hundreds homeless.The destruction of Beauregard, in Lee county, now little more than a tableau of smashed mobile homes, toys, clothes, insulation, water heaters, metal and severed pine trees, showed the strength of a storm that now ranks as the deadliest in six years and which one official compared to "a giant knife scraping the ground".Using dogs and drones to search, rescue efforts continued. Officials warned that the death toll could still rise.Late on Tuesday, the Lee county coroner, Bill Harris, told a news conference the storms' victims included almost entire families and at least three children, ages six, nine and 10. "I'm not going to be surprised if we come up with some more deceased. Hopefully we won't," Harris said.With wind speeds estimated at 170mph and a path of destruction now estimated to be nearly a mile (1.6km) wide, residents have also begun recounting their efforts to survive a twister they described as hitting the community with little warning.The county emergency management director, Kathy Carson, said she was "pretty sure" tornado sirens in Beauregard sounded warnings.Beauregard resident Carol Dean told how she had found her wedding dress and a Father's Day note to her husband among the wreckage, reading: "Daddy, I love you to pieces." Her husband David Wayne Dean had texted friends to warn of the storm's approach but was unable to make it out. His dead body was found in their neighbor's yard."Our son found him," Dean told reporters. "He was done and gone before we got to him. My life is gone. He was the reason I lived, the reason that I got up."Survivor Julie Morrison, who managed to salvage her husband's motorcycle boots and her embossed Bible from the couple's destroyed home, said she and her husband took shelter in the bathtub as the twister lifted their house off its foundations and swept it into the woods."We knew we were flying because it picked the house up," Morrison said. She said she believed the shower's fiberglass enclosure helped them survive.But as the surviving residents sifted through the ruins, questions were being asked why, in an area known as tornado alley, tornadoes routinely cause so much destruction.The US National Weather Service had begun warning of higher tornado activity in the region three days earlier. Government forecasters "were all over it", said University of Georgia meteorology professor Marshall Shepherd.Before Sunday's event, an EF-5 tornado that struck Joplin, Missouri, in May 2011 killed 158 people; a month earlier a series of tornadoes had left an estimated 316 people dead, including at least 250 in Alabama.According to tornado researcher Richard Stokoe at the University of South Wales, elevated death tolls in Alabama can largely be ascribed to the density of mobile homes, housing almost 15% of the state's population, the geography of the region and type of coniferous vegetation."Mobile homes are of very poor quality build and they don't have basements, so you can't get to a basement shelter," said Stokoe.And with an average of 15 minutes warning of the approach of a tornado, many residents do not have time to reach a shelter, while some may be reluctant to heed government-generated official warnings, he said.

| Former New York mayor announces he will not run for president in 2020 Posted: 05 Mar 2019 04:23 PM PST  Billionaire Michael Bloomberg, who backs gun control and climate change causes, has pledged his wealth to the Trump resistanceThe former New York City mayor Michael Bloomberg has announced he will not run for president in 2020. Photograph: Jim Watson/AFP/Getty ImagesMichael Bloomberg, the billionaire former New York mayor and champion of causes such as gun control and climate change, has ended months of speculation by announcing that he will not run for US president next year.The 77-year-old, one of the richest men in the world, revealed his decision on Tuesday not to join the crowded Democratic field – currently at 16 candidates – but pledged to pour his vast wealth into the resistance movement against Donald Trump."I know we can do better as a country," he wrote in a Bloomberg News editorial. "And I believe I would defeat Donald Trump in a general election. But I am clear-eyed about the difficulty of winning the Democratic nomination in such a crowded field."Bloomberg has toyed with a presidential run before as an independent but re-registered as a Democrat last year and spent recent months courting primary voters as a political centrist. However, the fiscal conservative increasingly seemed out of step with a liberal base questioning the morality of economic inequality and the influence of money in politics.Another billionaire, Tom Steyer, who has been campaigning for Trump's impeachment, read the runes and decided in January not to make a bid for the White House. It appears that Bloomberg has reached a similar conclusion. His pro-business positions and support for stop-and-frisk policing as mayor of New York would also have come under scrutiny.Neil Sroka, spokesperson for the progressive political action committee Democracy for America, said: "No surprise. No constituency. He had an additional challenge as a billionaire at a moment when the last thing people want is someone with ungodly sums of money telling them what to do. More importantly, he was pushing an agenda that has little support in the Democratic party and even less outside the Democratic party."There will not, after all, be a battle of the septuagenarian New York billionaire businessmen, between Trump and Bloomberg. Sroka added: "It shows Bloomberg has one thing over Trump: he's not so blindly narcissistic that he got into this race."In the editorial, Bloomberg urged Democrats to unify behind a nominee who could defeat Trump, an implied warning against veering to the left as some candidates embrace a Green New Deal and Medicare for All – already painted by Republicans as socialist projects.Senator Bernie Sanders, a self-declared democratic socialist, is among the early frontrunners. Howard Schultz, the billionaire former chief executive of Starbucks, is considering a run as an independent despite a fierce backlash from voters who fear he will peel off Democratic votes and help re-elect Trump.Following Bloomberg's announcement, Schultz tweeted: "I've long said there isn't room for centrist moderation in either party and it appears Mr Bloomberg has come to the same conclusion."> .@MikeBloomberg governed from the center with big ideas, pragmatism and common sense. In an era of paralysis and dysfunction, he's an exception. I've long said there isn't room for centrist moderation in either party and it appears Mr. Bloomberg has come to the same conclusion.> > — Howard Schultz (@HowardSchultz) March 5, 2019However, Bloomberg may be pinning his hopes on Joe Biden, the former vice-president, joining the fray as a centrist heavyweight."It's essential that we nominate a Democrat who will be in the strongest position to defeat Donald Trump and bring our country back together," he wrote. "We cannot allow the primary process to drag the party to an extreme that would diminish our chances in the general election and translate into 'Four More Years'."Bloomberg, the UN secretary general's special envoy for climate action, is expected to play an active role in the 2020 election from the outside. In his editorial, he said he would focus on tackling climate change and addressing gun violence, noting that both still face major obstacles in Congress.This will include "Beyond Carbon", a grassroots effort to begin moving America as quickly as possible away from oil and gas and toward a 100%-clean-energy economy.Bloomberg spent more than $100m to help Democrats in the 2018 midterm elections, and his team has been preparing a data-driven effort to go much further in 2020. While the effort would have supported Bloomberg's presidential bid had he run, it will now be used to defeat Republicans.Chuck Schumer, the Democratic minority leader in the Senate, told the New York Times: "Mike Bloomberg was a great mayor and would have been a strong candidate. I am certain his passion for making the country a better place will continue, albeit not as a candidate, particularly on issues like climate change, guns and curtailing the abuses of President Trump."Bloomberg's announcement followed confirmation that Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state and 2016 Democratic nominee, will not run again next year. Trump tweeted in response: "'(Crooked) Hillary Clinton confirms she will not run in 2020, rules out a third bid for White House.' Aw-shucks, does that mean I won't get to run against her again? She will be sorely missed!""
