‘March For Our Lives’ This Weekend In Washington And Throughout Nation For Gun Control Led By Generation Z
As The Russian Collusion Investigation Closes In, President Trump Continues
To Attack The Messenger
“Arise! For this matter is your responsibility, but we will be with you; be coura- geous and act.” Ezra 10:4
Thousands of people are expected to rally in Washing- ton, DC, this weekend for a March for Our Lives protest to advocate for gun control. Thousands more will join them at other marches in cities large and small across the country.
Their motto is #NeverA- gain.
This march, happening Saturday, March 24, at noon Eastern Time in D. C., marks the second big push of teenage activism against gun violence in the wake of the mass shoot- ing at Marjory Stoneman Dou- glas High School in Parkland, Florida.
Close to a million stu- dents stood up and streamed out of classrooms across the country last week as part of the National School Walkout. The protest honored the victims of the Parkland shooting one month ago and called on law- makers to pass gun control legislation.
A growing list of musicians and entertainers have showed their support for anti-gun vio- lence causes sparked by the horrific mass school shooting. This has manifested itself in donations, performances or
well-wishing tweets in regard to #NeverAgain and the March for Our Lives demonstration set to take place in Washing- ton, D. C., and across the United States on Saturday.
In the realm of music, Ariana Grande, Miley Cyrus, Demi Lo-
vato and Jennifer Hud- son recently pledged to join the march, and preceding the event will be an anti-gun vio- lence gig in D. C. headlined by Fall Out Boy and featuring G- Eazy, Bebe Rexha, Lizzo and more.
Students walked out of class last week to begin their show of sol- idarity for gun control.

President Trump is stum- bling in the calamity of the Russian collusion investiga- tion. Special Counsel Robert Mueller, III is doing his duty and throwing the cover off of the fiasco that has gripped the White House.
On Wednesday, President Trump criticized Robert S. Mueller, III, the special coun- sel, for the ongoing investiga- tion into Russia’s 2016 campaign meddling, even as a former C. I. A. director said during a morning news show that President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia may have com- promising information on Mr. Trump.
Mr. Trump attacked Mr. Mueller over the weekend, even though his own attorneys advised him not to, and contin- ued his tirade in his early morn- ing tweets Wednesday saying
he was quoting a former Har- vard professor stating that Mr. Mueller should never have been appointed to be the special counsel to investigate Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election.
That investigation has ex- panded into inquiries into Mr. Trump’s aides and his own business dealings.
“I was opposed to the selec- tion of Mueller to be Special Council,” Mr. Trump attrib- uted in a Twitter post to a pro- fessor emeritus at Harvard Law School, Alan M. Dershowitz.
Mr. Mueller Has 4 Topics They Want To Question Trump About
According to CNN, Mr. Mueller’s team has discussed with Pres. Trump’s lawyers 4 areas they want to talk to him about.
The areas they want to pur- sue are: the President’s role in crafting a statement aboard Air Force One that miscast Don- ald Trump Jr.’s campaign June 2016 meeting with Rus- sians in Trump Tower; the cir- cumstances surrounding that Trump Tower meeting; and the firings of FBI Director James Comey and national security adviser Michael Flynn.
One of the sources said the bulk of the topics conveyed sur- round the President’s actions with the Comey and Flynn fir- ings.
Austin Bomber That Killed 2 Blacks Blows Himself Up After SWAT Closes In
The man believed to be re- sponsible for the serial bomb- ings in Austin, Texas, killing two and injuring several others is dead.
Mark Conditt, who is sus- pected in the bombings over the last three weeks, died early Wednesday after detonating an explosive inside his vehicle as a SWAT team tried to apprehend him on the side of a highway, of- ficials said.
Exotic batteries ordered on- line helped lead authorities to him.
A criminal complaint filed before the suspect died identi- fied him as Mark Anthony Conditt, 23.
Authorities had tracked him to a hotel in Round Rock, a city in the Austin metropolitan area, Austin Police Chief Brian Manley said at a news confer- ence.
Police were able to find Conditt using a variety of tac- tics.
The bomber, Mark Conditt, 23, killed Stephan House and Draylen Mason and critically injured Mason’s mom, and an His- panic woman.
The oldest of four children, Conditt was homeschooled by his mother. BuzzFeed spoke to a 21-year-old woman named Cas- sia Schultz who said she “ran in the same conservative sur- vivalist circles in high school as Conditt.” She mentioned that she and Conditt were a part of a social group for homeschooled kids called Righteous Invasion of Truth (RIOT).
‘A lot of us were very into sci- ence; we would discuss chemi- cals and how to mix them and which ones were dangerous,” Schultz told BuzzFeed. “We were into weapons and stuff.’
Austin has been on edge after four attacks using package or other bombs across the city this month left two dead and several injured.
The most recent occurred Sunday when two people were injured by a device believed to have used a tripwire. The first attack on March 2 killed, hus- band and father, Stephan House, 39. Ten days later, high school senior, Draylen Mason, 17, was killed in an ex- plosion that also critically in- jured his mother. And a separate attack that day critically injured a 75-year-old Hispanic woman.
Trump Furious Over Leak Of Warning Not To Congratulate Putin On Election Win
President Donald Trump was infuriated after it quickly leaked that he had been di- rectly instructed by his national security advisers in briefing materials not to congratulate Russ- ian President Vladimir Putin on his recent elec- tion victory during their call Tuesday morning, a source familiar with the President’s thinking said.
Trump was
fuming Tuesday
night, asking his allies and outside advisers who they thought had leaked the information, noting that only a small group of staffers have access to those materials and would have known what guidance was included for the Putin call, the source said.
