🚨🗣NEW: PSNI ‘must engage more’ with people from Catholic, republican and nationalist backgrounds. 🎥Chief Reporter James speaking to Sinn Féin MLA Deirdre Hargey. 👥It comes ahead of a party meeting with PSNI Chief Constable Jon Boutcher. Recent PSNI recruitment figures showed the percentage of new Catholic applicants was at its lowest level in more than a decade. Police said more than 4,000 people applied to the latest student officer recruitment campaign, with 65.6% from a Protestant background, 26.7% from a Catholic background and 7.7% undetermined. That has prompted fresh concerns about representation within policing. Between 2001 and 2011, there was a 50:50 recruitment initiative, meaning there was one Catholic recruit for every person from a Protestant or other background. The MLA says more needs to be done to ensure confidence in policing. She also outlined how legacy should be removed from policing. Asked whether, as a politician, she can also do more to help.

Kamala Harris is disdainful towards people of faith and Catholics specifically. And as a Catholic, I was offended that she didn’t go to the Al Smith Dinner because she thought it would be “offensive” to the LGBTQ community. #KamalasCatholicHate

Aaron Carter was also a victim of Diddy. Aaron revealed that his mother was trying to get him to claim that Michael Jackson s*xually assaulted him, when he said that it never happened and that his mother was just trying to sue Michael for money, and that many other parents have probably done the same. The real monster was paraded as the "New King of Hip-Hop." While Michael Jackson was paraded as the child abuser.

Fuentes pretends to care about the browning of America while endorsing it as inevitable for the Catholic Church "People like to say the Catholic Church is brown and certainly you're right, I think there's more brown Catholics than white Catholics" "The Catholic church has to represent those people" "And if we get a African pope he'll probably be better (than current pope)"

⚖️❗️JUST IN: "Justice has NOT been prioritised by the Executive... there's no doubt I have the backs of PSNI officers." 🚫Justice Minister Naomi Long MLA tells Chief Reporter James that justice as a whole has not been prioritised by the Executive. She says there is a crisis in police officer numbers—but none of those issues "excuse the waste of resources spent on people choosing to riot." The Minister adds that if it weren't for the rioting, the £5 million allocated to the PSNI could have been used to recruit more officers. Speaking at a Police Federation for Northern Ireland event at Stormont.

#WATCH | Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu | Bharatanatyam dancer and daughter of Sadhguru, Radhe Jaggi says, "...This year, we are excited to put up a story about Ravana, which is a story that a lot of people don't know about. The people think of him as a villain in Ramayana, which he is. But, in India, we don't look at characters as completely bad or completely good. Ravana is the greatest example of that because as much as he was greedy, full of lust and possessive, he was also somebody who is considered the greatest devotee, a scholar...When we decided on the theme, I didn't really know about it, but this is a story that I thought would be nice to present..."

NEW: A witness who was at the McDonald's where Luigi Mangione was caught, says he and a friend joked at Mangione that he looked like the New York sh**ter. McDonald’s customer, Larry, said he and a friend were joking so loud that Mangione could hear them. "One of my friends, and I thought he was kidding when the sh**ter... who they made the arrest on came in, he made a comment: 'Well, that looks like the shooter from New York.'" "But the group of us thought it was more of a joke and we were kidding about it. But then as it turned out, it was him." Larry says he didn't think much of it and left the restaurant to go to church. It wasn't until later that he realized he was joking about the actual sh**ter.

New video of Scottie Scheffler speaking with police. Says he didn’t know Detective Gillis was a police officer and he thought it was a security guard who didn’t know he was instructed to go around traffic. It’s rare that anything good comes from talking to the police in a situation like this. Here, he’s being asked intentionally leading questions and was better off saying nothing. The purpose of the line of questioning here seems like it was to get Scottie to admit he knew it was a police officer, despite Scottie saying 4-5x he did not know that. Regardless, the 2nd Degree Assault charge only requires that Scottie *intentionally* caused injury to another through the use of a dangerous instrument (the car). Does anybody actually believe Scottie purposely intended to run down some security guards at the Valhalla entrance on his way to his tee time? Hopefully they drop the charges today and end this charade.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says the Salvadoran illegal was deported because ICE and DHS has "a lot of evidence" that he was in fact an MS-13 gang member and human trafficker: "The administration maintains the position that this individual that was deported to El Salvador and will not be returning to our country, was a member of the brutal and vicious MS-13 gang. That's fact number one." "Fact number two: We also have credible intelligence proving that this individual was involved in human trafficking." "Fact number three: This individual was a member, actually a leader of the brutal MS-13 gang, which this president has designated as a foreign terrorist organization." "Fact number four: Foreign terrorists do not have legal protections in the United States anymore. It is within the president's executive authority and power to deport these heinous individuals from American communities.

#WATCH | Delhi: On pricing of ethanol, AS Sahney, Chairman and Managing Director of Indian Oil Corp Limited, says, "...There are two or three components which have to be addressed. It has to be affordable for the customer, that is number one. And it has to be viable for the producer, and it has to be viable for me. And it should address energy security. I think these are the four basic premises on which our E20 program has flourished. And I think E85 will flourish if it fits into these broad criteria. So it has to be affordable, which we have tried to do by putting it at a cheaper rate, E85, although it's a launch offer. It may be calibrated further as the consumption increases. That is a separate issue. And it has to be viable for a producer, and it has to be economically viable for me..."
