3 teens with loaded AK-47 in backpack jump wall at Mar-a-Lago, police say
PALM BEACH, Fla. — Three teenagers were arrested after police said they illegally scaled a wall at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club while carrying an AK-47 in a backpack, authorities said Wednesday. According to Palm Beach Police Department spokesperson Michael Ogrodnick, the boys were arrested shortly after entering the property. They had dumped a backpack, which contained the semiautomatic weapon that had a loaded 14-round magazine. “They had no idea where they were,” Ogrodnick told the Miami Herald. The president and his family were not at the club, which is closed for the summer, Ogrodnick said.
According to a police report, on Friday night the teens, who have not been identified, were observed parked in a silver Hyundai around midnight Friday, WPTV reported. When police approached the vehicle, it sped away. It was observed moments later by another officer, who was conducting an unrelated traffic stop, WPEC reported. After a short pursuit, the teens left the Hyundai and ran toward Mar-a-Lago, where they illegally entered the property. The teens hid on the resort’s grounds. Officers surrounded the area and a helicopter and police dog were used to find them, the Herald reported. The teens were charged with trespassing with a firearm, burglary with a firearm and resisting arrest without violence, the newspaper reported. The boys are being held at the Juvenile Assessment Center in West Palm Beach, WPTV reported. Prosecutors are deciding whether to charge the teens as adults, according to the Herald.

Democrats planted false stories in effort to derail Biden investigations, Grassley says (1 of 2)
"This is the behavior of cowards," Grassley said in forceful speech to colleagues
One of the longest serving members of Congress in a scathing speech on Wednesday accused Democrats of resorting to dirty tricks in order to derail investigations into Joe and Hunter Biden’s dealings with Ukraine. "This is the behavior of cowards. And it has to stop," Sen. Chuck Grassley declared. Democrats have accused two leading senators of engaging in disinformation, while in truth the accusers are engaging in disinformation, said Grassley, R-Iowa, in his speech to lawmakers. Citing investigations being led by himself and Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Grassley highlighted important revelations, among them that parts of the infamous anti-Trump document, the Steele Dossier, were based on Russian disinformation. The current investigations by Grassley and Johnson center on Hunter Biden’s position on the board of the Burisma company in Ukraine when his father, Joe Biden, was vice president. Both Grassley and Johnson have come under fire from Congressional Democrats who have sought to discredit the investigation - thus prompting Grassley's floor speech.
“In the last few weeks, Democrats have falsely accused me and Senator Johnson of receiving packets of information, including tapes, from a Ukrainian,” Grassley said. “That’s false reporting based on leaks from a letter written by Senator Schumer, Senator Warner, Speaker Pelosi, and Representative Schiff, which is itself based on cherry picked innuendo from classified documents.” In his forceful remarks, Grassley accused Democrats of acting in bad faith. "This nonsense of orchestrated leaks to plant stories falsely accusing me of dealing in disinformation based on actual disinformation that I wasn’t even privy to serves only the interest of our shared adversaries," he said. "This is the behavior of cowards. And it has to stop." Elsewhere, he countered the Democrats’ claims. “Let me be clear, my investigation with Senator Johnson is based on how the Obama administration formulated its Ukraine policy, which then Vice President Biden oversaw while his son was on the board of a corrupt Ukrainian natural gas company that was under investigation,” Grassley said. Summarizing the Russia collusion investigation that produced no evidence of collusion between Moscow and Donald Trump, Grassley took a swipe at the Democrats for not examining the roots of those charges. “Maybe the Democrats don’t want to look under the hood of the fake Russia investigation because they’d be front and center,” Grassley said.
The pointed floor statement follows an Aug. 4 letter from Grassley and Johnson to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), Senate Intelligence Vice Chair Mark Warner (D-Va.), and House Intelligence Chair Adam Schiff (D-Calif.). “The fact that the press knew more about the content of the allegedly classified material than we did indicates that you are more interested in grabbing headlines and scoring political points than actually addressing and confronting the issue of foreign interference in our elections,” Grassley and Johnson wrote in their letter. “We have neither sought out, relied upon, nor publicly released anything that could even remotely be considered disinformation,” the two wrote. Grassley, 86, was first elected in 1980, and is serving his seventh term in the United States Senate.
