A 15-year-old Beto O’Rourke once wrote a “murder fantasy” short story about running over two children with a car, according to a new report that also revealed the now-presidential candidate was a member of a famous hacking group.

The details were uncovered in a Reuters report on the “Cult of the Dead Cow,” a famous group of hackers credited with inventing the term “hacktivism.” Reuters revealed that O’Rourke, who joined the Democratic presidential primary race on Thursday, was a member, while reporting, “there is no indication that O’Rourke ever engaged in the edgiest sorts of hacking activity, such as breaking into computers.”

But the report also revealed that teenage Beto, in connection with the group, wrote stories under the name “Psychedelic Warlord” — writings that remain online.

One piece in particular detailed the narrator’s murder spree, as part of his goal seeking “the termination of everything that was free and loving.” The piece described the first kill as the murder of two children crossing the street.

BETO’S IDENTITY CRISIS: IS DEM DARLING A LIBERAL OR A MODERATE? 

It reads: “Then one day, as I was driving home from work, I noticed two children crossing the street. They were happy, happy to be free from their troubles. I knew, however, that this happiness and sense of freedom were much too overwhelming for them.

As I neared the young ones, I put all my weight on my right foot, keeping the accelerator pedal on the floor until I heard the crashing of the two children on the hood, and then the sharp cry of pain from one of the two

— A 15-year-old Beto O’Rourke’s fictional fantasy piece

“This happiness was mine by right. I had earned it in my dreams. As I neared the young ones, I put all my weight on my right foot, keeping the accelerator pedal on the floor until I heard the crashing of the two children on the hood, and then the sharp cry of pain from one of the two. I was so fascinated for a moment, that when after I had stopped my vehicle, I just sat in a daze, sweet visions filling my head.

“My dream was abruptly ended when I heard a loud banging on the front window. It was an old man, who was using his cane to awaken me. He might have been a witness to my act of love. I was not sure, nor did I care. It was simply ecstasy. As I drove home, I envisioned myself committing more of these ‘acts of love,’ and after a while, I had no trouble carrying them out. The more people I killed, the longer my dreams were. … I had killed nearly 38 people by the time of my twenty-third birthday, and each one was more fulfilling than the last.”

O’ROURKE BACKS OFF IMPEACHMENT, SAYS VOTING TRUMP OUT OF OFFICE IN 2020 IS BETTER IDEA

In another piece, he challenged the perspective of a neo-Nazi who was defending Hitler’s actions.

The Reuters report reads: “In another piece, he took on a self-proclaimed neo-Nazi who maintained that Hitler was misunderstood and didn’t personally want Jews killed. O’Rourke and a Jewish friend questioned the man about his theories and let him ramble about Jews and African Americans, an attempt to let him hang himself with his own words.

“We were trying to see what made him think the horrible things that he did,” he wrote in the piece.

It’s unclear whether the piece reflected a real interview, or was fictional.

The Reuters report included quotes from members of the hacker group, many of whom kept O’Rourke’s secret for decades.

The news agency spoke to more than a dozen people who were part of the group for a book from the same reporter titled, “Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World.”

BETO O’ROURKE ‘VANITY FAIR’ PROFILE MOCKED FOR STORIES ABOUT EX-GIRLFRIENDS, BOOKSHELVES AND HIS ‘NEAR-MYTHICAL EXPERIENCE’

O’Rourke said he gave up hacking when he was 18 years old and enrolled in college.

He told Reuters he got into the habit and visited boards frequented by other hackers because it was a “great way to get cracked games” – meaning video games that had been altered in some way.

Of the latest revelations, O’Rourke, 46, told Fox News, “It was stuff that I was a part of as a teenager that I’m not proud of today, and I mean that’s the long and short of it.”

Asked about the potential impact on his 2020 campaign, he had this to say: “I can’t control anything I did in the past. All I can do is control what I do going forward, and what I plan to do is give this my best; bring as many people together around the solution we face. That’s what I hear the people of Iowa saying as well.”

Friday’s slaughter in two New Zealand mosques played out as a dystopian reality show delivered by some of America’s biggest technology companies. YouTube, Facebook, Reddit and Twitter all had roles in publicizing the violence and, by extension, the hate-filled ideology behind it.

These companies – some of the richest, most technologically advanced in the world – failed to rapidly quell the spread of troubling content as it metastasized across platforms, bringing horrific images to internet users worldwide.

The alleged shooter, a heavily armed man authorities have not yet named, also released a 74-page manifesto denouncing Muslims and immigrants that spread widely online. He left behind a social media trail on Twitter and Facebook that amounted to footnotes to his manifesto. Over the two days before the shooting he posted about 60 of the same links across different platforms, nearly half of which were to YouTube videos that were still active late Friday.

The horror began Friday morning in New Zealand, as the alleged shooter used Facebook to live-stream his assault on Al Noor Mosque, one of two Christchurch mosques that he attacked and the scene of most of the 49 fatalities. Many hours later – long after the man and other suspects had been arrested – some internet users still were uploading and re-uploading the video to YouTube and other online services. A search of keywords related to the event, such as “New Zealand,” surfaced a long list of videos, many of which were lengthy and uncensored views of the massacre.

Anthony Sanders slid on a fluorescent orange “Security” vest, tucked his pistol under the waistband of his jeans and planted his feet at the front entrance to the Masjid Al-Mu’minun mosque in Atlanta during Friday afternoon prayers. 

Sanders closely watched each person who walked in, looking for “shaky” behavior, big bags or clothing that didn’t match the warm weather. Three other men monitored each car pulling into the front parking lot. A fourth man stood sentry inside, watching live security camera footage from many different angles. 

Sanders and his crew were being extra cautious following Friday’s mass shootings at a pair of mosques in New Zealand, a massacre that claimed the lives of 49 people and injured dozens more. Police have taken three people into custody. One has been charged with murder, an unidentified man who left behind a white nationalist manifesto that rails against immigrants and Muslims.

“It’s unfortunate that when these things happen that we have to become more aware — more conscious — of security. But, I mean, New Zealand? Nothing happens there,” Sanders, a private security guard who volunteers at the mosque, said of his shock. 

At a news conference inside Sanders’ mosque Friday, the Georgia chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations called on local police to send patrol cars out to guard local Muslim houses of worship. Atlanta and Gwinnett County police confirmed they would help. 

“We have our officers conducting directed patrols around city mosques and asking them to be on heightened alert for suspicious activity,” Atlanta police spokesman Carlos Campos said. “Additionally, our Homeland Security Unit is monitoring the events out of New Zealand.”

Gwinnett police responded similarly.

“In response to the incident in New Zealand, we have increased patrols at all mosques in Gwinnett County,” said Cpl. Michele Pihera, a Gwinnett police spokeswoman. “We hope to bring some measure of comfort to those who visit these places of worship during this difficult time.”  

Since 2005, there has been a rise in anti-mosque incidents, including acts of vandalism, according to the American Civil Liberties Union. In Georgia, for example, there have been nearly a dozen incidents.  

In the summer of 2017, for instance, a man made several threatening phone calls to the Islamic Society of Augusta, including threats to blow up the mosque and hurt members. The man later pleaded guilty.  

Centers of faith are by nature open and welcoming to anyone who wants to visit, and that makes them vulnerable, said Glen Evans, president of ChurchSecurityTrainer.com in Dayton, Ohio, which advises faith leaders on how to protect their members.  

“Most people who want to cause harm understand this about the faith community,” Evans said. “They all share one common footprint — they were generally welcoming places with generally nonviolent people. It’s what we call a soft target.”  

When people hear screaming or shooting, they should be able to lock down an area without having to get permission from a pastor, imam or rabbi, Evans said. Those few seconds or minutes could save lives before police arrive, he added. There is a movement to station armed people inside places of worship, including specially trained members, private security guards and off-duty police officers, Evans said.  

Sulaimaan Hamed, the imam at Atlanta Masjid of Al-Islam, said armed personnel protect his mosque.  

“Georgia is a state that respects our Second Amendment, as do I,” he said. “We do have armed security who are licensed — who are trained — to protect those who come to worship God.”

Furqan Muhammad, the imam at Masjid Al-Mu’minun, pointed to his mosque’s longstanding security plans, saying: “The best time to prepare for war is at peace.”  

“Our faith teaches us to believe in God, to believe in Allah,” he said, “but tie your camel.”  

Inside his mosque Friday, Abdulkarim Muhammad sat at a desk near the entrance, toggling between watching surveillance video footage inside the building and greeting everyone who walked down the hallway toward him. 

A Marine veteran and grandfather, Muhammad peered inside a visitor’s black duffel bag. When another visitor in an Atlanta Braves ball cap reached out to shake his hand, Muhammad politely refused, saying he didn’t want to be distracted from his important duty. Meanwhile, he urged people to turn off their cellphones before they joined the Friday afternoon prayers.  

Muhammad said he believes Allah will protect him, though he remains vigilant.  

“Pray as well as watch,” he said. “I am always alert.”

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump promised to fight Democrats and Republicans in Washington, and, with his first-ever veto Friday, he did just that.

“Congress has the freedom to pass this resolution, and I have the duty to veto it,” he said as he sent a measure that would have terminated his declaration of a national emergency — and the transfer of billions of dollars to build his promised border wall — right back to Capitol Hill.

The day before, a dozen Republican senators had joined with Democrats to pass the measure, an unusually large number of GOP defections from Trump’s line.

While Trump played down the fracture Friday — “I didn’t need the votes,” he said — it showed that by engaging in a battle with Congress over the power of the purse, he has weakened institutional support for the wall, and for his authority, among Washington Republicans.

That is, even some Republicans who say they’re for the wall are drawing the line at Trump declaring a national emergency and seizing spending decisions from Congress to do it.

But some Republicans say that may not be a bad thing for Trump as he heads into the 2020 election.

On the surface, it suggests he’ll have a much tougher time winning budget battles with a Congress that is obviously increasingly inclined to assert its own prerogatives and restrain his. But Trump doesn’t have any domestic policy agenda items that approach the political importance of the wall, and he wants to campaign against Washington again.

It’s all the better if he can run, at least a little bit, against both parties, said Matt Schlapp, a Trump ally and chairman of the American Conservative Union.

“They gave him a gift,” Schlapp said of Congress sending him the resolution. “The president is at his strongest when he is fighting and he is seen as credible when he is fighting members of his own party…especially when the principles are on his side.”

Michael Steele, a former chairman of the Republican National Committee and frequent Trump critic, noted that the president said Friday he wasn’t upset with Republicans who defected. Steele said he sensed a little bit of public theater playing out on both ends of Pennsylvania Avenue, the boulevard that runs between the White House and the Capitol.

“On the vote itself, there’s a lot of high-minded drama about what these senators did,” he said, noting that there was no chance of the president’s veto being overridden and that most of the Republicans who defected aren’t up for re-election next year. “I’m not convinced.”

As for Trump, Steele added, “he loves the fight, he doesn’t care who he’s fighting, it doesn’t matter if it’s Republicans or Democrats … for him, politically, it reaffirms for his base why they sent him to Washington.”

Ultimately, the courts will decide whether Trump’s spending gambit passes constitutional muster. For now, Democrats and some Republicans argue that his decision to grab money from existing projects and rededicate it to build the wall is a violation of Congress’ constitutional primacy in spending matters.

“The House and Senate resoundingly rejected the President’s lawless power grab, yet the president has chosen to continue to defy the Constitution, the Congress and the will of the American people,” Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said in a statement released after the veto.

Some Republican critics of the president’s methods, including Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, have raised constitutional concerns, while others have simply worried that a future Democratic president would use the precedent set by Trump to spend money on pet projects not approved by Congress.

Rachel Bovard, the policy director at the Conservative Policy Institute and a former aide to Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., who cited constitutional concerns in voting against the president Thursday, said that the emergency declaration doesn’t violate the separation of powers principle.

“The Constitution is not in crisis. The border is,” Bovard said in a text exchange with NBC. “The president’s declaration follows the law that Congress passed. They’ve appropriated money and authorized a law that allows this wall to be built. If Congress wants to change the law that disallows future presidents from taking this action, they are well within their rights to do so.”

To Bovard, the question is a political one, not a legal one.

“Trump is using the power that Congress gave him to secure the border — which is more than Congress is apparently willing to do,” she said. “So what’s truly at stake is whether or not Republicans are going to be united on border security going into 2020.”

The movement of power toward the executive branch, and away from Congress, is a long-running trend, said Mack McLarty, who served as chief of staff to President Bill Clinton.

While he sees Trump’s use of executive power in this instance — including the veto and the original decision to shift money around — as “unique” because it “interferes with Congress’ rights …in terms of appropriations funds,” he said Friday’s action makes sense in the context of the emphasis Trump has put on the wall.

“This is a priority issue for him, and this is why he’s using the veto pen,” McLarty said.

Members of Bangladesh’s national cricket team, who were in Christchurch for a match, were also saved by tardiness, after a news conference delayed their walk to the Deans Avenue mosque.

Mohammad Isam, an ESPN reporter covering the team, reported on an ESPN website that at 1:52 he got a terrified call from Tamim Iqbal Khan, one of the Bangladesh cricketers.

“There’s shooting here, please save us,” Mr. Khan said, according to Mr. Isam.

“I first think that he is playing a prank but he hangs up and calls again — this time, his voice starts to crack,” Mr. Isam wrote. “He says that I should call the police as there’s a shooting going on inside the mosque where they are about to enter.”

Mr. Khan wrote on Twitter: “Entire team got saved from active shooters.”

Another player, Mushfiqur Rahim, tweeted “we r extremely lucky … never want to see this things happen again … pray for us.”

Updated at 4:56 p.m. ET

President Trump used his veto pen for the first time Friday, after Congress tried to reverse his national emergency declaration and rein in spending on a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Congressional critics do not appear to have the votes to override Trump’s veto. So, as a practical matter, the administration can continue to spend billions of dollars more on border barriers than lawmakers authorized, unless and until the courts intervene.

“Today I am vetoing this resolution,” Trump said, flanked by law enforcement officials at an Oval Office event. “Congress has the freedom to pass this resolution and I have the duty to veto it.”

Also in the room for the veto signing Friday were parents of children who were killed by immigrants who entered the country illegally, as well as Vice President Mike Pence, DHS Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen and Attorney General William Barr.

“I don’t know that I’ve ever been more proud than to be standing next to you today,” Pence said. “You’re keeping your word by vetoing this legislation.”

Indeed, Trump had telegraphed his plan to proceed with additional wall spending on Thursday, minutes after the Senate voted 59-41 to block it. Twelve Republican senators joined Democrats in rejecting the president’s emergency declaration.

“I look forward to VETOING the just passed Democrat inspired Resolution which would OPEN BORDERS while increasing Crime, Drugs, and Trafficking in our Country,” Trump tweeted. “I thank all of the Strong Republicans who voted to support Border Security and our desperately needed WALL!”

And Friday afternoon Trump again thanked those GOP senators who had voted to allow his emergency declaration to go forward. “This will help stop Crime, Human Trafficking, and Drugs entering our Country,” the president tweeted. “Watch, when you get back to your State, they will LOVE you more than ever before!”

Trump declared a national emergency last month, after Congress authorized only $1.3 billion in border wall funding, far short of the $5.7 billion Trump had asked for. The emergency declaration allows the president to redirect funds from other accounts such as military construction to the Southern border wall.

Republican senators who bucked the president said they did so to preserve congressional control over the government’s purse strings.

“We had a war against a king in the American revolution,” said Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn. “This would be the first time that a president has ever asked for a certain amount of money from Congress, Congress has refused to provide it, and then the president has declared a national emergency under the 1976 act and said, ‘I’m going to spend the money anyway.'”

Alexander added that he shares the president’s goal of border security, but warned allowing Trump to redirect money without authorization could set a dangerous precedent.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., announced soon after the veto that the House would attempt to override it, after returning from a recess later this month.

Republicans, Pelosi said, “will have to choose between their partisan hypocrisy and their sacred oath to support and defend the Constitution.”

Recent months have seen a surge in unauthorized crossings of the U.S. border with Mexico. Last month, roughly 76,000 people tried, including 43,000 children and family members, many fleeing violence and poverty in Central America.

“People hate the word invasion, but that’s what it is,” Trump said Friday.

The large numbers have put a strain on immigration enforcement, although critics say a wall would do little to discourage the crossings since many of those apprehended at the border turn themselves in voluntarily.

The border wall project still faces a variety of legal challenges, and despite Trump’s veto, House and Senate votes against the emergency declaration could carry some weight in the courts.

Trump insists he’s on solid legal ground, however.

“I think actually a national emergency was designed for a specific purpose like this, so we have a great case,” Trump said. “Ideally, they shouldn’t even sue in this case, if you want to know the truth. They shouldn’t even be suing, but they will because they always do.”

On Friday, Barr also said the president’s emergency order was “clearly authorized under the law.”

New York (CNN Businss)Nearly 18 hours after a terror attack that killed 49 people at a mosque in New Zealand on Friday, footage from the shooting remained live on YouTube and Facebook.

    Former British spy Christopher Steele admitted that he relied on an unverified report on a CNN website for part of the “Trump dossier,” which was used as a basis for the FBI’s investigation into Trump.

    According to deposition transcripts released this week, Steele said last year he used a 2009 report he found on CNN’s iReport website and said he wasn’t aware that submissions to that site are posted by members of the public and are not checked for accuracy.

    A web archive from July 29, 2009 shows that CNN described the site in this manner: “iReport.com is a user-generated site. That means the stories submitted by users are not edited, fact-checked, or screened before they post.”

    In the dossier, Steele, a Cambridge-educated former MI6 officer, wrote about extensive allegations against Donald Trump, associates of his campaign, various Russians and other foreign nationals, and a variety of companies — including one called Webzilla. Those allegations would become part of an FBI investigation and would be used to apply for warrants under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

    During his deposition, Steele was pressed on the methods he used to verify allegations made about Webzilla, which was thought to be used by Russia to hack into Democratic emails.

    When asked if he discovered “anything of relevance concerning Webzilla” during the verification process, Steele replied: “We did. It was an article I have got here which was posted on July 28, 2009, on something called CNN iReport.”

    “I do not have any particular knowledge of that,” Steele said when asked what was his understanding of how the iReport website worked.

    When asked if he understood that content on the site was not generated by CNN reporters, he said, “I do not.” He was then asked: “Do you understand that they have no connection to any CNN reporters?” Steele replied, “I do not.”

    He was pressed on this further: “Do you understand that CNN iReports are or were nothing more than any random individuals’ assertions on the Internet?” Steele replied: “No, I obviously presume that if it is on a CNN site that it may has some kind of CNN status. Albeit that it may be an independent person posting on the site.”

    When asked about his methodology for searching for this information, Steele described it as “what we could call an open source search,” which he defined as “where you go into the Internet and you access material that is available on the Internet that is of relevance or reference to the issue at hand or the person under consideration.”

    Steele said his dossier contained “raw intelligence” that he admitted could contain untrue or even “deliberately false information.”

    Steele was hired by the opposition research firm Fusion GPS to investigate then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016. Fusion GPS was receiving funding at the time from the Clinton campaign and the DNC through the Perkins Coie law firm.

    The series of memos that Steele would eventually compile became known as the “Trump Dossier.” The dossier was used in FISA applications to surveil Trump campaign associate Carter Page.

    When asked whether he warned Fusion GPS that the information in the dossier might be “Russian disinformation,” Steele admitted that “a general understanding existed between us and Fusion … that all material contained this risk.”

    Steele also described his interactions with Sen. John McCain’s aide, David Kramer, whose own deposition showed that he provided BuzzFeed with a copy of the dossier and had spoken with more than a dozen journalists about it.

    “I provided copies of the December memo to Fusion GPS for onward passage to David Kramer at the request of Sen. John McCain,” Steele said. “Sen. McCain nominated him as the intermediary. I did not choose him as the intermediary.”

    When asked if he told Kramer that he couldn’t “vouch for everything that was produced in the memos,” Steele replied, “Yes, with an emphasis on ‘everything.'”

    When asked why he believed it was so important to provide the dossier to Sen. McCain, Steele said: “Because I judged it had national security implications for the United States and the West as a whole.”

    Shares of aircraft-manufacturing company Boeing took a hit early this week, losing $26.6 billion in market value Monday and Tuesday, following a deadly crash of one of its 737 Max 8 airplanes in Ethiopia.

    That model has since been grounded by the Federal Aviation Administration, as well as by aviation regulators around the world.

    Still, if you invested in Boeing 10 years ago, that decision would have paid off: According to CNBC calculations, a $1,000 investment in 2009 would be worth more than $14,000 as of March 15, 2019, a total return over 1,000 percent. In the same time frame, the S&P 500 was up 270 percent. So, your $1,000 would be worth just over $3,700, by comparison.

    Any individual stock can over- or under-perform, however, and past returns do not predict future results. Boeing paused delivery of 737 Max planes after the Ethiopia crash, which came less than five months after another deadly crash in Indonesia involving the same model.

    This left several major airlines, including United, American and Southwest scrambling to rebook passengers and reassign planes. Those companies said they would waive ticket-change fees and fare differences for those affected by the FAA’s grounding order.

    Flight-booking site Kayak even introduced a new search feature that allows users to exclude specific plane models, according to co-founder and chief executive officer Steve Hafner.

    CNBC: Boeing stock as of Mar. 15, 2019

    Fortunately for Boeing, while shares plunged more than 10 percent early this week, they ticked back up by as much as 3 percent Friday. And the company announced plans to roll out a software fix in the next few weeks.

    Though, Bank of America analyst Ronald Epstein said Thursday that the fix could take a lot longer: “Once Boeing identifies the issue … the most likely scenario is the company will take about 3-6 months to come up with and certify the fix,” he said in a note.

    Hafner says he expects the 737 models to be grounded only a few months and that travelers will likely be booking flights on them again soon: “They’re out of service on a temporary basis,” he said on CNBC’s “Squawk Alley.” “In reality, airlines are still planning on flying those planes in the summer. People want security and comfort when they fly.”

    In the meantime, Boeing said in a statement it will “continue to build 737 Max airplanes, while assessing how the situation, including potential capacity constraints, will impact our production system.”

    If you’re looking to get into investing, expert investors like Warren Buffett and Mark Cuban suggest you start with index funds, which hold every stock in an index, offer low turnover rates, attendant fees and tax bills. They also fluctuate with the market to eliminate the risk of picking individual stocks.

    The New England Casket Co., founded decades ago by an Italian cabinet maker in East Boston, was destroyed in a massive fire Friday afternoon that sent thick plumes of smoke laced with chemicals into the air and forced the evacuation of the Orient Heights neighborhood.

    The 9-alarm fire drew about 200 firefighters from Boston, Chelsea, Winthrop, and other communities to battle the fire, which broke out just after 3 p.m. at the large industrial building on Bennington Street.

    The fire raged for hours and caused “millions and millions” worth of damages, Fire Commissioner Joe Finn said.

    “We’re still fighting this fire,” Finn said during a news briefing at the scene at about 7:20 p.m. “We’re still trying to get a handle on this fire.”

    He said there are “some chemicals in the air” from the lacquers used to finish the caskets. Authorities monitored the air quality of the neighborhood with meters, “and they’re well within the acceptable range,” Finn said.


    Still, authorities evacuated the neighborhood near the fire “out of an abundance of caution.”

    He did not know how many people were displaced. He said one police officer was sent to a local hospital with smoke inhalation.

    Mayor Martin J. Walsh said the fire was one of the largest he has seen during his time in office.

    “I’m just grateful no one is hurt,” Walsh said at the news briefing.

    Finn ordered an 8th alarm shortly before 5:30 p.m. as firefighters dealt with a water supply issue. About 45 minutes later, Finn struck a 9th alarm.

    Dozens of fire trucks lined Bennington Street, and firefighters fought the fire from multiple angles. But their efforts were hampered by an apparent water-pressure problem.

    At one point, firefighters were ordered out of the building, out of concern for their safety.

    Walsh attributed the pressure problem to the building’s location in a low-lying area. Pressure is greatest on Orient Heights, a residential neighborhood at the top of a hill.

    But the casket company is located “at the end of the line,” Walsh said. “We’re down in the lowlands here. That’s where the pressure has a problem.”

    The cause of the fire was not known Friday night. It appeared to start in the roof area, above a sprinkler system, Finn said.

    “It appears to have been where the furnace comes through the roof,” he said.

    As the fire raged, a wall of flames was visible on Bennington Street. Roads were closed and the MBTA suspended Blue Line service to the area. The blaze also drew scores of onlookers, including many residents stunned by the sight of a neighborhood business going up in flames.

    “It looks like a total loss,” said Gerard E. Millerick, 75, watching as flames licked the roof of the structure.

    Millerick said he has lived in the neighborhood for about 30 years. On some days, depending on how the wind blows, residents can smell fumes from varnishes used on the caskets drifting through the air.

    Finn said the company stored chemicals in the building, but he did not say what kind.

    Residents were evacuated in the area of Bennington and Leyden streets because of the heavy smoke that henveloped the Orient Heights area.

    Police officers and firefighters knocked on doors to alert people. Residents were sent to the Curtis Guild Elementary School and to the Paris Street Community Center. The Red Cross of Massachusetts, staff from the city’s Centers for Youth and Families, and other agencies were on hand to assist them.

    “At the beginning we weren’t scared,” resident Ana Lezama said outside the school.

    Another resident, Leonard DeAngelico, was evacuated with his wife, children, and cat.

    “I don’t mind it. I’d rather be safe than sorry,” he said. “We know this is going to go on all night.”

    The New England Casket Co., run since the 1930s by generations of the Tobia family, makes handcrafted caskets that are sold to distributors and funeral homes across the country, according to a Globe story published in 2017.

    The family could not be reached for comment.

    One Boston funeral home director said the company is known for its service and craftsmanship.

    “They’re a great company and I’ll miss them,” said Richard F. Gormley, owner of the Gormley Funeral Home in West Roxbury.

    He buys about 300 caskets per year from the company, he said.

    “They are very nice family to deal with. Very accommodating. Give us fast service — exactly what we need.”

    The operator of a funeral home in Sacramento, Calif. that buys caskets from the company said the fire could have a major impact on the industry’s supply chain.

    “It is going to be devastating to a lot of people,” said Dawn Lielke, a secretary at Pettigrew & Sons Casket Co., by telephone Friday evening. “Suppliers like New England just don’t exist anymore. They are the go-to casket people for companies like us.”

    She added, “I am devastated for everybody at New England, the family that owns the company, all the employees. . . . It’s just heartbreaking to think what is going to happen to them.”

    CENTURY CITY, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — An evacuation at a Century City mall has been lifted after a report of a man with a gun and a suspicious package prompted a scare on Friday.

    Evacuees were being led back inside shortly after 5:30 p.m.

    Los Angeles police said there was no evidence of a shooting, and bomb squad officials determined a suspicious box at the scene was not an explosive.

    Nobody was immediately detained or arrested but there is suspicion an individual may have lit the box on fire. Investigators said there were no injuries reported.

    It all started shortly before 1 p.m. Los Angeles police said that during the search for a reported man with a gun, officers were directed to a suspicious box inside the Amazon Store. Video from AIR7 HD showed smoke coming from the Amazon Store. It’s unclear what was inside the box.

    The box began to smoke when an individual described by witnesses as a man with a green bandanna and bushy hair left the Amazon store. Authorities are looking at surveillance video to determine whether that person lit the package on fire.

    At about 2:30 p.m. LAPD urged those sheltering in place to remain calm and exit the location. Images sent to the Eyewitness Newsroom showed customers sheltering in place inside the H&M basement. After being stuck in there for about two hours, they were later evacuated.

    All available police resources were sent to the mall, including the bomb squad.

    Authorities cleared out the mall safely. Many shoppers and employees were escorted out the nearest exit. Nearby Beverly Hills High School was placed on lockdown as a precaution due to incident, the Beverly Hills Police Department said.

    It was a scary situation for some.

    “I had just clocked into work and then I saw my co-workers running, and he said, ‘Drop everything and run,’ and we just ran out the door. As we were running out the door, we heard a shot, and then I saw security, and mall security said just keep running, keep going,” said mall employee Gisell Lopez.

    Police set up a perimeter around the mall and shut down Santa Monica Boulevard due to the investigation.

    The president has long insisted that there is a security and humanitarian crisis at the border with Mexico, an assertion that was undercut by Mr. Trump himself when he acknowledged that he could have waited to issue his declaration.

    Democrats seized on those words and cited government data that shows there has been no flood of criminal migrants coming into the country. Some Republicans shared that view.

    But others said they opposed the president on the grounds that it was the duty of Congress to appropriate taxpayer dollars and that Mr. Trump had exceeded his authority. On Thursday, a dozen Republicans joined Senate Democrats in voting to overturn Mr. Trump’s emergency declaration, in a 59-to-41 vote.

    “Never before has a president asked for funding, Congress has not provided it and the president then has used the National Emergencies Act of 1976 to spend the money anyway,” Senator Lamar Alexander, Republican of Tennessee, said after the vote on Thursday. Senator Jerry Moran, Republican of Kansas, said he thought Mr. Trump’s declaration was unconstitutional.

    Mr. Trump has held broad sway over congressional Republicans in his first two years in office. The vote by a dozen Republicans in the Senate siding with Democrats on an issue central to the president’s agenda was seen as a reclaiming of the role of Congress as a coequal branch of government.

    Forty-nine people were killed and 42 were being treated for injuries following the mosque terror attacks, New Zealand Police Commissioner Mike Bush said.

    New Zealand police also said that two of those injured are critical and include a 4-year-old child. Police said 41 people were killed at the Deans Avenue mosque, and seven at the Linwood Avenue mosque. One has since died in hospital.

    Bush went on to say police officials are continuing to make inquiries after the tragic events in Christchurch.

    “As the Prime Minister stated yesterday, this has been designated a terrorist attack,” Bush said on a message posted on New Zealand police’s Twitter account.

    A survivor of Friday’s deadly mass shootings in New Zealand has spoken out about the moment his friend tackled the gunman and wrestled his weapon away from him as he opened fire on worshippers.

    Syed Mazharuddin was praying at the Linwood mosque in Christchurch on Friday around lunchtime when a man wearing protective gear entered and began shooting at men, women and children inside. In the chaotic moments that followed, Mazharuddin said his friend found the chance to tackle the gunman and disarm him.

    “The young guy who usually takes care of the mosque … he saw an opportunity and pounced on [the gunman] and took his gun,” Mazharuddin told the New Zealand Herald. “The hero tried to chase and he couldn’t find the trigger in the gun … he ran behind him but there were people waiting for him in the car and he fled.”

    The gunman, described as a white man in his 20s, also attacked the  Al Noor Mosque in Christchurch during prayers on Friday.

    The death toll has now reached 49, and the shootings left at least 20 people seriously injured.

    Seven people died at the Linwood mosque and one died later on of their injuries at a nearby hospital. Mazharuddin said that people all around him, including his friends, were shot and bleeding heavily, and that it took ambulances about half an hour to get there.

    “I ran out and then the police came and they didn’t let me come back in again so I couldn’t save my friend, he was bleeding heavily,” he said. “It took almost half an hour, more than half an hour by the time the ambulance could arrive and I think he must have died.”

    About 10 minutes away, at the larger Al Noor Mosque, another man attempted to stop the gunman when he opened fire but was unsuccessful. A witness there described a worshipper jumping at him and trying to take the gun away, but being shot “straight away.”

    The shooter, a 28-year-old Australian native who has been charged with murder, disturbingly live-streamed at least one of the shootings. Social media platforms like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter have been scrambling to keep the video from circulating online in the hours since it went live.

    New Zealand’s Prime Minister said Friday’s shootings are being treated as acts of terrorism and called it “one of New Zealand’s darkest days.”

      <!– –>

      A man who talked to college admissions advisor William “Rick” Singer eight years ago about getting his son into a top California school says Singer matter-of-factly raised the idea of using fraud to make that happen — for a whopping $100,000 fee — less than two minutes after their conversation began.

      “I think there was 90 seconds of asking about his grades and his SATs and his extracurricular activities, and then it shifted” into how to have his son win admission by pretending to be a water polo team recruit and making a “contribution” to the water polo team, recalled the man.

      “When he was laying that down, he gave me the impression my kid wasn’t the first kid” Singer had gotten admitted by such a ruse, said the man, adding that he never considered going along with Singer’s suggestion.

      “I vividly remember him saying to me that, ‘I’ve placed a number of kids,'” said the man, who spoke to CNBC on the condition of anonymity.

      The man noted that before their call, Singer did not know who he was.

      Singer, 59, pleaded guilty Tuesday to federal criminal charges connected to his alleged widespread, $25 million scheme to help wealthy parents bribe, cheat and otherwise fraudulently game the college admissions system to gain entry for their children to highly ranked universities.

      Prosecutors have charged TV actresses Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin in the scheme, along with Loughlin’s husband, fashion designer Mossimo Giannulli. Other parents charged include PIMCO CEO Douglas Hodge, now-former Hercules Capital CEO Manuel Henriquez, top lawyer Gordon Caplan and investment fund CEO Bill McGlashan.

      Also facing charges are college athletic coaches who were allegedly paid to falsely claim certain students would play sports that they actually never ended up participating in.

      One of the California universities allegedly victimized in the scam was the school that Singer and the man who spoke with CNBC talked about getting the man’s son into in March 2011.

      The man who spoke with CNBC said that Singer, founder and CEO of the Edge College & Career Network, was referred to him by a friend whom he had talked to about his son’s college admission efforts.

      “He said, ‘You should be in touch with this guy,'” the man recounted.

      “He was pitched to me as a guy who packaged your kids” to apply to college, the man said.

      The man said that when he spoke with Singer on the phone, the first minute or so of the conversation seemed appropriate. Singer asked questions about his son’s academics and whether he had written a college application essay, the man said.

      “You say, ‘This is a college placement kind of guy,'” the man recalled.

      But then Singer asked a question that seemed “weird,” the man said.

      “He asked me how tall my son was,” the man said. “And then he asked me how much he weighed.”

      “Then it shifted … he said, ‘I can actually slot your kid into the water polo team,'” the man recalled. “I said, ‘He never played.’ He said, ‘That’s OK.'”

      Singer told the man that as part of his $100,000 fee, a “contribution” would be made to the water polo team at the university the son wanted to attend. After his son gained admittance to the school, Singer told him, his son would either quit the water polo team or be cut from it, without ever participating in any team activity.

      “The scheme was, ‘Get him in, and then get him out,'” the man recalled.

      Singer told the man “there’s a sense of urgency here” because at the time they were talking it was the season for college placement.

      After Singer detailed the proposed scam, the man told Singer, “I’ll get back to you.”

      The man said he never called Singer back and they never spoke again.

      “I wasn’t going to do it for a dollar,” the man said. “There was never a moment I thought I was calling for anything other than college advice.”

      “It just never crossed my mind that the call was going to go that way,” the man said. “The whole thing was so weird.”

      The man said that after speaking with Singer he called his friend who had referred Singer to him and told him how the conversation had gone.

      “He was taken aback,” the man said. “He had no idea.”

      The man added that although he never considered taking Singer up on his offer, it now seems like “a lot of people have.”

      On Tuesday, the man said, he heard the news about the federal investigation into bribery for college admissions that had swept up “Desperate Housewives” star Huffman and “Full House” actress Loughlin, along with the business executives, college coaches and Singer.

      The man then called his friend who had originally referred him to Singer.

      President Donald Trump has repeatedly called special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation a “witch hunt.” | Olivier Douliery-Pool/Getty Images

      White House

      President Donald Trump on Friday insisted there should be no report from special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe, denouncing the investigation as “illegal.”

      “So, if there was knowingly & acknowledged to be ‘zero’ crime when the Special Counsel was appointed, and if the appointment was made based on the Fake Dossier (paid for by Crooked Hillary) and now disgraced Andrew McCabe (he & all stated no crime), then the Special Counsel…should never have been appointed and there should be no Mueller Report,” the president tweeted Friday.

      Story Continued Below

      Trump has repeatedly called Mueller’s probe into whether Russia colluded with the president’s 2016 campaign a “witch hunt.” Despite his criticisms, the president has maintained that he has cooperated fully with the investigation, which also includes whether Trump tried to obstruct justice.

      Mueller’s investigation is reportedly winding down, and lawmakers on both sides have called on the special counsel’s report to be made public once the probe is completed.

      The House on Thursday passed a resolution 420-0 urging the Justice Department to make Mueller’s findings and full report public and available to Congress. Senate Republicans, however, blocked the bill.

      The president on Friday also complained that the probe was only started as an excuse for Democrats losing the 2016 election.

      “This was an illegal & conflicted investigation in search of a crime,” he tweeted, adding “Russian Collusion was nothing more than an excuse by the Democrats for losing an Election that they thought they were going to win.”

      “THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN TO A PRESIDENT AGAIN!” Trump concluded.

      Pictures have been posted on social media showing an arrest being made after deadly shootings in New Zealand.

      Forty people have been killed and more than 20 wounded in attacks at two mosques in Christchurch.

      New Zealand prime minister Jacinda Ardern called it one of New Zealand’s “darkest days”.

      Police Commissioner Mike Bush confirmed that four people were in custody, but said it was unclear if others were involved.

      Witnesses told local media they ran for their lives, and saw people bleeding on the ground.

      He approaches the mosque on foot, his weapon visible, and begins shooting at people at the entrance. What follows is a harrowing nearly two minutes of his firing on worshipers.

      At one point the gunman exits the mosque and fires in both directions down the sidewalk before returning to his car for another gun — which, like the others, was inscribed with numbers, symbols or messages. When he re-enters the mosque, he shoots several bodies at close range.

      After another few minutes, he returns to his vehicle and drives away.

      “There wasn’t even time to aim, there was so many targets,” he says at one point, as the sirens of an emergency response vehicle blare in the background.

      — MEGAN SPECIA and JASON BAILEY

      Before the shooting, someone appearing to be the gunman posted links to a white-nationalist manifesto on Twitter and 8chan, an online forum known for extremist right-wing discussions. The 8chan post included a link to what appeared to be the gunman’s Facebook page, where he said he would also broadcast live video of the attack.

      The Twitter posts showed weapons covered in the names of past military generals and men who have recently carried out mass shootings.

      In his manifesto, he identified himself as a 28-year-old man born in Australia and listed his white nationalist heroes.

      Writing that he had purposely used guns to stir discord in the United States over the Second Amendment’s provision on the right to bear arms, he also declared himself a fascist. “For once, the person that will be called a fascist, is an actual fascist,” he wrote.

      — DANIEL VICTOR and TIFFANY MAY

      Felix Kjellberg, a polarizing YouTube celebrity known as PewDiePie, distanced himself from the attacks after the man who filmed himself shooting victims at a mosque encouraged viewers to “subscribe to PewDiePie” in a video livestream.

      “I feel absolutely sickened having my name uttered by this person,” Mr. Kjellberg, a Swede, said on Twitter.

      Mr. Kjellberg has courted controversy by performing anti-Semitic gestures, which he calls satirical, in his videos. He has a following of 89 million subscribers.

      SINGAPORE, March 15 (Reuters) – Social media platforms Facebook and Twitter said on Friday they would take down content involving mass shootings at two New Zealand mosques that killed at least 49 people and wounded more than 20.

      A suspected gunman broadcast live footage on Facebook of the attack on one mosque in the city of Christchurch, mirroring the carnage played out in video games, after publishing a “manifesto” in which he denounced immigrants.

      The video footage, posted online live as the attack unfolded, appeared to show him driving to one mosque, entering it and shooting randomly at people inside.

      Worshippers, possibly dead or wounded, lay huddled on the floor, the video showed. Reuters was unable to confirm the authenticity of the footage.

      “Police alerted us to a video on Facebook shortly after the livestream commenced and we quickly removed both the shooter’s Facebook and Instagram accounts and the video,” Facebook tweeted.

      “We’re also removing any praise or support for the crime and the shooter or shooters as soon as we’re aware.”

      Twitter said it had “rigorous processes and a dedicated team in place for managing exigent and emergency situations” such as this.

      “We also cooperate with law enforcement to facilitate their investigations as required,” it said.

      Alphabet Inc’s YouTube said: “Please know we are working vigilantly to remove any violent footage.”

      Live streaming services have become a central component of social media companies’ growth strategy in recent years, but they are also increasingly exploited by some users to livestream offensive and violent content.

      In 2017, a father in Thailand broadcast himself killing his daughter on Facebook Live. After more than a day, and 370,000 views, Facebook removed the video. That year, a video of a man shooting and killing another in Cleveland also shocked viewers.
