The Trump administration is unleashing additional sanctions against seven Russian oligarchs with ties to President Vladimir Putin along with 12 companies they own or control.The measures announced by the Treasury Department on Friday were also aimed at 17 senior Russian government officials and the state-owned Russian weapons trading company, Rosoboronexport, which has long-standing ties to Syria and its subsidiary, Russian Financial Corporation Bank."Russian oligarchs and elites who profit from this corrupt system will no longer be insulated from the consequences of their government's destabilizing activities," Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said in a statement, citing Russia's occupation in Crimea and its ongoing efforts to supply the Assad regime in Syria with materials and weapons.The action targets Russian oligarchs including Kirill Shamalov, who married Putin's daughter and has amassed a fortune since they tied the knot in February 2013; Oleg Deripaska, a senior Russian official who has been investigated for money laundering; and Suleiman Kerimov, who allegedly brought millions of euros into France in suitcases, according to the Treasury Department.The fresh sanctions are the latest step by the US against Russia following the poisoning of a former Russian spy in England, interference in the US 2016 election and a cyberattack, described as the most damaging in history.The Trump administration has been under pressure by Congress to act to meet demands under a sanctions law passed by Congress last summer to punish Russia for interfering in US elections.  1599

The term "money laundering" was never more appropriate than this week, when Dutch police found around 0,000 stuffed inside the drum of a washing machine.A man present in the house during Monday's raid was arrested on suspicion of -- yes, you've guessed it -- money laundering.Authorities were checking for unregistered residents in western Amsterdam when they found the load."The municipal administration revealed that no one lived at the address," the police told CNN in a statement. "When the police did a search through the house they found €350,000 hidden in the washing machine."The police also confiscated several mobile phones, a firearm and a money-counting machine during the raid. The suspect, who is 24 years old, has not been named.The police news release included a picture of bundles of €20 and €50 bills crammed into the washing machine.They said in a statement that the raid was part of an investigation into "housing fraud, money laundering and other [signs] of crime." 997

The travel industry has taken a major hit during the COVID-19 pandemic. From hotels to airlines, the industry saw a massive dip in business as people started canceling their upcoming trips. Instead, it appears people are taking their summer vacations outdoors."We had a lot of cancelations early on so starting in March, April and May we're heavily affected by cancelations but now that states are opening back up and travel¡¯s resuming, our bookings are outpacing our cancelation seven fold," says Toby O'Rourke, the CEO of Kampgrounds of America. O'Rourke says campsite bookings and RV rentals are soaring.KOA conducted their own research and found that one-third of non-campers are considering camping as their summer travel activity. With contact-less bookings and a taste of the outdoors, she says many are finding camping a safer vacation option."We've been having a lot of activity on our campgrounds. There¡¯s a lot of pent-up demand. We¡¯re seeing June really take off which we¡¯re excited to see heading into the summer months," says O'Rourke.O'Rourke adds that a majority of states have opened up their parks and campgrounds. In April, she says there was a magic date when people started booking campgrounds like crazy. Outdoorsy.com, a site that connects RV owners with people who want to rent them, says they've seen a 2,600% growth in their business since the COVID-19 pandemic began."Just last month alone, we saw over 2.5 million new visits or new users to the site Outdoorsy.com which is pretty significant. We¡¯re breaking records all over the place in terms of bookings, growth. We had our best booking day on record last week that was up 300% year over year for just that day," says Jennifer Young, co-founder of Outdoorsy.com.Outdoorsy says recreational vehicles allow people to control their own environments."It's a standalone vehicle that you control where you buy your food, where it goes, how it stays in your refrigerator. Same with your bathrooms. So you¡¯re cleaning and washing and showering - it's all self-contained in where you want to stay. You pick your location and destination," says Young.Plus both Outdoorsy and KOA have developed new safety guidance for campgrounds and RV renters amid COVID-19 which include proper sanitation, personal protective equipment and more."I definitely think once somebody rents an outdoorsy vehicle or camper van I¡¯m pretty sure they¡¯ll be hooked," says Young.KOA's O'Rourke advises people to first check camping websites and book ahead whenever possible.

The second night of the Republican National Convention was one that featured three Trumps not named Donald, and also had its share of controversy.Before Tuesday¡¯s festivities commenced, the Republican Party booted Mary Ann Mendoza from its slate of speakers following an anti-Semitic remark on Twitter. The evening also included an address from current Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who became the first active secretary of state in recent times to speak at a major political convention, prompting questions from Democrats whether the speech was a violation of government ethic rules.President¡¯s family takes center stage at RNCTwo of President Donald Trump children, along with his wife Melania, were featured during Tuesday¡¯s portion of the convention. Their speeches followed one given by Trump¡¯s son Donald Trump Jr. on Monday.While generally the family of candidates avoid partisan attacks, Eric Trump went after after Joe Biden and the Democrats.¡°He is a career politician who has never signed the front of a check and does not know the slightest thing about the American worker or the American business,¡± Eric Trump said.Tiffany Trump, who graduated from law school earlier this year, related to those struggling to find work amid the coronavirus pandemic."Like so many students across the world, I graduated from law school during the pandemic,¡± Tiffany Trump said. ¡°As a recent graduate, I can relate to so many of you who might be looking for a job. My father built a thriving economy once, and believe me... he will do it again."The evening concluded with remarks from First Lady Melania Trump, who spoke from the newly-remodeled White House Rose Garden.Melania Trump also acknowledged the impact the coronavirus has had on the US, which has claimed nearly 180,000 American lives, and the jobs of millions of Americans.¡°I want to acknowledge the fact that since March, our lives have changed drastically,¡± the first lady said. ¡°The invisible enemy, COVID-19, swept across our beautiful country. And impacted all of us. My deepest sympathy goes out to everyone who has lost a loved one and my prayers are with those who are ill or suffering. I know many people are anxious and some feel helpless. I want you to know you are not alone."Unlike her stepson Eric, Melania said she would not attack Joe Biden.¡°I don't want to use this precious time attacking the other side, because, as we saw last week, that kind of talk only serves to divide the country further,¡± she said.Trump hosts citizenship ceremony at the White HouseIn an unusual sight that mixed politics and official business, the president hosted a citizenship ceremony for five permanent residents turned citizens.¡°Today America rejoices as we welcome five absolutely incredible new members into our great American family. You are now fellow citizens of the greatest nation on the face of God¡¯s earth. Congratulations," Trump told the new US citizens.To Trump, the moment reflected an opportunity to promote legal immigration over those who come to the US illegally.¡°You followed the rules, you obeyed the laws, you learned your history, embraced our values, and proved yourselves to be men and women of the highest integrity,¡± Trump said. ¡°It¡¯s not so easy. You went through a lot, and we appreciate you being here with us today.¡±Anti-abortion speaker in Twitter spat during RNCAbby Johnson, a former employee of Planned Parenthood who spoke out against the organization, was in the midst of a Twitter war moments before she spoke during the RNC.Johnson said that she stood by comments she previously made that voting should only be open to the head of the household.In May, Johnson tweeted, "Then they would have to decide on one vote. In a Godly household, the husband would get the final say."¡°Yes. So shocking! A husband and wife who are in agreement and a wife who honors her husband as the head of the home. Gasp!! What a weird, biblical concept,¡± Johnson tweeted on Tuesday in response to the May tweets.Johnson later added, ¡°I would never try to prevent women from voting.¡± 4062

The University of Arizona and Boeing joined forces to find disinfectants that will kill COVID-19 and help make air travel safer. The project known as the Confident Travel Initiative is designed to test out cleaning solutions that can destroy the Coronavirus. Arizona microbiology professor Dr. Charles Gerba, who is known as "Dr. Germ," says he¡¯s been working with Boeing since the summer to test cleaning products as part of the initiative to make flying as safe as possible during the pandemic and beyond.¡°It's really innovative to try to get a coating that will be antiviral," he said. "I think it¡¯s the next step in hygiene and disinfection adding another barrier between when they clean and regularly disinfect aircraft. We¡¯re looking at coatings. And anytime the virus lands on it would kill it, so you don¡¯t have to keep disinfecting all the time."The team conducted laboratory testing by using a virus called MS2 on surfaces inside of an unoccupied plane. The virus has similar characteristics to the virus that causes COVID-19.¡°It would protect you from when they disinfect it or clean the aircraft. In case the virus lands again on a surface in the aircraft. We¡¯ve been evaluating the overhead bins, the seats, the trays, the handles,¡± Gerba said.Cleaning solutions and ultraviolet wands were also used throughout the plane and according to Boeing, the results show that antimicrobial coatings were effective for extended periods of time and won¡¯t be harmful to passengers. While Gerba didn¡¯t share the names of the disinfectants, he did say the products can potentially be used on public transportation and other high traffic areas.¡°We actually did some of the work in the aircraft going in and contaminating certain areas like the tray in the aircraft the overhead bin and then evaluating the disinfectants to show they could kill the virus," Gerba said. "I see this new technology of self-disinfecting surfaces will revolutionize public places in cleanliness, cars, and buses you name it. These are products already on the market and they are new innovative products where you can put down a coating and it will last for hours, weeks, or maybe even months."The research project is expected to be done with other viruses by the end of the year and airplane cleanings will be done between flights.¡°It all has a big benefit I think it's going to add that extra barrier to me it¡¯s the next generation of infection control and the spread of disease,¡± Gerba said.This story was first reported by Shawndrea Thomas at KGUN Tucson, Arizona. 2552
