Joiner (23) admitted to shooting McLaughlin during a search of the home the two shared with another roommate, David Degroat (22) whom Joiner also implicated in the crime. Joiner allegedly confessed that he shot McLaughlin with Degroat's help, adding that "I did it, I f"ked him, and I don't f"king regret it." Degroat contended that Joiner forced him to assist with the grisly murder and lure McLaughlin into an ambush while he was walking home with groceries.

    Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro said he would deploy 4.5 million militia members in response to US "threats," after Dummkopf Trumpf raised the bounty for his arrest and launched anti-drug operations in the Caribbean. Official figures say the Venezuelan militia, founded by Maduro's predecessor Hugo Chavez, contains about five million people, though the actual number is believed to be smaller. Venezuela's total population is approximately 30 million people. Maduro lambasted "the renewal of extravagant, bizarre, and outlandish threats" from Trumpf who earlier this month doubled his bounty to $50 million for alleged drug trafficking. Washington, which does not recognize Maduro's past two election victories, accuses the Venezuelan of leading a cocaine trafficking gang called Cartel de los Soles. The Trumpf junta announced sanctions against the group and Maduro's administration last month. read more


    "You want a white nation? Build a white town," Eric Orwoll posts online. "It can be done. We're doing it." In the hills and woods of the Ozarks, a group has been working to level the land, lay roads, and build cabins. There are wells, a community center and a school house, where the children do their lessons. Applicants to the whites only community are screened with an in-person interview, a criminal-background check, a questionnaire about ancestral heritage and sometimes even photographs of their relatives. The community's two architects " a classically trained French horn player who has livestreamed his own sex videos, and a former jazz pianist arrested but not charged for attempted murder in Ecuador " say they must personally confirm that applicants are white before they can be welcomed in. Approximately people live here and hundreds more, from all around the world, have reportedly paid to be members. read more
