Russian prosecutor suspends activities at Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny's headquarters
CNN
The headquarters of jailed Kremlin critic Alexey Navalny's anti-corruption organization has been suspended, pending a court decision on whether to designate the group as an extremist organization.
Ivan Zhdanov, director of Navalny's Anti-Corruption Foundation (FBK), tweeted on Monday that the decision to suspend the group's activities was made by Moscow's chief prosecutor. The development comes after Navalny on Friday announced he was ending his weekslong hunger strike, following a warning from doctors close to him that he was close to death.President Joe Biden is expected to announce an executive order as early as Tuesday that would effectively shut down the US-Mexico border to asylum-seekers crossing illegally when a daily threshold of crossings is exceeded – a sweeping and controversial proposal that is likely to receive fierce pushback from progressives and immigration advocates.
In the days and weeks leading up Hunter Biden’s trial on felony gun charges, President Joe Biden made little attempt to distance himself from his son. Instead, Hunter Biden was seen at the White House and in Delaware at his father’s side amid what the president’s allies acknowledge is a difficult moment for both men.
