Avril Haines, dijo al Congreso el miércoles que es probable que el presidente chino, Xi Jinping, presione a Taiwán y trate de socavar la influencia de EE. UU. en los próximos años cuando comience un tercer mandato como presidente.

Haines, la directora de Inteligencia Nacional de EE. UU y los otros altos funcionarios de inteligencia (el director de la CIA, William Burns, el director del FBI, Christopher Wray, el director de la Agencia de Inteligencia de Defensa, el teniente general Scott Berrier y el director de la NSA, el general Paul Nakasone), testificaron ante el Comité de Inteligencia del Senado

Los extremistas transnacionales por motivos raciales y étnicos, incluidos los neonazis y los supremacistas blancos, “siguen siendo la amenaza más letal para las personas y los intereses estadounidenses”, dijo la comunidad de inteligencia en su nuevo informe.

El informe dice que este “movimiento descentralizado” en gran medida representa “una amenaza significativa para varios aliados y socios de EE. UU. a través de ataques y propaganda que propugna la violencia”.

“Estos actores buscan cada vez más sembrar divisiones sociales, apoyar gobiernos de estilo fascista y atacar las instituciones gubernamentales. La estructura transnacional y laxa de las organizaciones de la RMVE desafía a los servicios de seguridad locales y crea una resiliencia frente a las interrupciones”, afirma el informe, refiriéndose a los grupos extremistas violentos por motivos raciales o étnicos .

Three years after George Floyd was murdered by then-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, the Justice Department issued a blistering report Friday of the city’s police department, detailing racial discrimination, excessive and unlawful use of force, First Amendment violations and a lack of accountability for officers.

“Our investigation found that the systemic problems in MPD made what happened to George Floyd possible,” the report states.

The Minneapolis Police Department has, for years, used dangerous “techniques and weapons” against people who had committed a petty offense or no offense at all, “including unjustified deadly force,” it adds.

“MPD used force to punish people who made officers angry or criticized the police,” the report says, and “patrolled neighborhoods differently based on their racial composition and discriminated based on race when searching, handcuffing, or using force against people during stops.”

In its investigation, the Justice Department reviewed hundreds of police body-worn camera videos, incident and police reports, hundreds of complaints filed against officers and dozens of interviews with city leaders, community leaders and police officials.
