Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933-1945)
Letter (1940-01-09) to William Allan Neilson

The image is a four-panel comic strip with a red background and black silhouettes of cats. Each panel features a cat with a speech bubble containing text. The first panel reads, "DID YOU HEAR ABOUT WILLIAM RUTO?" The second panel says, "THE PRESIDENT OF KENYA?" The third panel asks, "DID HE ORDER THE ABDUCTIONS?" The fourth panel responds, "YEAH, HE DID." At the bottom of the image, there is a hashtag "#RUTOMUSTGO." The background has a distressed texture, and the text is in bold, yellow font with a black outline. The overall theme of the comic strip appears to be a satirical commentary on a political figure.

'Kenya's deputy police chief Eliud Lagat has stepped aside pending the outcome of investigations into the death in detention of blogger Albert Ojwang.'

Two Minnesota state lawmakers were shot in apparent "targeted" incidents on Saturday that left them in grave condition, officials said, and a manhunt is now underway for the gunman.

A source familiar with the matter tells ABC News that the victims are state Sen. John Hoffman and state Rep. Melissa Hortman.

Both were shot at their homes and authorities believe the shooter was impersonating law enforcement, the source said.

"On the morning of June 12, in East Los Angeles, the FBI, National Guard, and LA Sheriff’s Department cornered off the street where immigrant rights activist Alejandro Orellana lives. Neighbors came out of their homes, concerned they were witnessing another ICE raid. FBI agents forcibly entered Orellana’s home, overturned all of his belongings, seized his electronic property, and then escorted Orellana handcuffed into one of their vehicles."

"Later in the day, Centro CSO held a press conference to denounce the FBI raid, demand his freedom, and that the charges be dropped. The press conference took place at the Edward Roybal Federal Building located in downtown Los Angeles. Led by CSO members Avery Raimondo and Sol Marquez, the press conference was attended by dozens of allies and supporters."
