Leah Goldin, the mother of Israeli soldier Hadar Goldin whose remains are being held by Hamas in the Gaza Strip, addressed the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva on Monday.
In her remarks to the international body, she called on its member states to change their policies on the Gaza Strip, and to take initiative to bring back the Israeli soldiers and civilians being held by Hamas in the terrorist enclave.

Former FBI director James Comey said in a radio interview Tuesday that he hopes President Donald Trump is not impeached because it means American voters would be “let off the hook.”
When asked about impeaching Trump, Comey answered that “as a citizen, I hope not because I think the American people would be let off the hook.”
“A lot of his supporters would think some kind of coup had taken place,” Comey said during the interview with California radio station KCRA. “We need to take responsibility for this and vote next November, and show we have a certain set of values and we insist that our leaders reflect those values.”

A journal entry calling for the death of cops and surveillance footage of a shootout with cops are at the center of the trial of Ahmad Khan Rahimi, accused of shooting at five Linden police officers in September 2016.
Rahimi faces 30 charges, including five counts of attempted murder of police, aggravated assault and several weapons offenses. If convicted, the 31-year-old faces a life sentence, adding to the already two life sentences he’s serving for the federal conviction of planting pipe bombs in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan on Sept. 17, 2016.
Hours earlier, officials say Rahimi planted a bomb along the route of a charity 5K run in Seaside Park. He still faces those charges.

President Donald Trump and his people were ready for the day Democrats decided to launch an impeachment inquiry against him.
Trump’s re-election campaign raised a quarter of a million dollars in just 15 minutes on Tuesday in the immediate aftermath of House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s announcement about the probe.
Trump, who in a tweet after Pelosi’s announcement, labeled the probe “Witch Hunt garbage,” also appeared to embrace the argument that the impeachment effort could help his 2020 prospects.
“They all say that’s a positive for me, for the election,” Trump told reporters in New York. “But the good news is, the voters get it. This is why they say it’s good for the election. But you know what? It’s bad for the country.”

The Central Election Committee announced after midnight Tuesday that following an investigation which found several instances of apparent election fraud, it had amended the election results and Likud gained one more seat at the expense of the UTJ.
The change gives Likud 32 seats, still one behind Blue and White. It drops UTJ from eight to seven, but it does not change the balance of power between the rival blocs headed by Likud’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Blue and White challenger Benny Gantz. Netanyahu has been endorsed as preferred prime minister by 55 MKs; Gantz has the backing of 54.
The committee has until the end of Wednesday to give President Reuven Rivlin its final results.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, during his interview with Fox News on Tuesday, claimed that Israel supports the Islamic State (ISIS) jihadist organization.
“There is no terrorism throughout the world that matches the activities of Israel,” he said. “Those who fight for the freedom of their lands and their homes are not terrorists. Those who render aid to Daesh (the Arabic name for ISIS -ed.) are terrorists. Israel is the country that takes care of the injured ISIS fighters and they make weapons available to them.”

Rudy Giuliani says Barack Obama had to be “asleep at the switch” to keep his vice president, Joe Biden, in charge of Ukraine policy while Biden’s son Hunter worked for “the crookedest guy in Ukraine.”
Giuliani points to a 2013 trip the two Bidens took on Air Force Two to China. Days later, a company in which Hunter Biden had a large stake made a private equity deal with a subsidiary of the government-owned Bank of China that ended up being worth $1.5 billion.
“I hope they at least paid for the trip,” Giuliani commented. “Why wasn’t Obama saying, ‘This is unacceptable?’”
John Kerry was Obama’s secretary of state when Biden traveled both to China and Ukraine.

Police confiscated nearly $4 million worth of THC vape cartridges near Minneapolis on Monday, the largest seizure of its kind in Minnesota.
During a raid in Coon Rapids, a suburb north of Minneapolis, police recovered 76,972 e-cigarette cartridges containing THC, along with $23,000 in counterfeit cash. One suspect, who was suspected of dealing via Snapchat, was arrested.
The bust follows Minnesota’s first vaping-related death. An elderly woman who vaped marijuana for back pain died from a vaping-related lung injury in August, according to the Minnesota Department of Health. Nationwide, nine people have died and the CDC says 530 have been sickened from vaping-related illnesses.

A California man has been arrested over allegations that he and his partners ran a $1 billion Ponzi scheme that targeted people receiving pensions.
News outlets report the U.S. Marshals Service arrested Future Income Payments LLC owner Scott Kohn on Saturday in San Diego. The 65-year-old has been on the run since March when authorities in South Carolina secured fraud indictments against him.
Court filings say the company provided cash advances to veterans and others that would then be repaid by their pensions. Traders weren’t told the advances had interest rates that could top 240%. The upfront money came from investors who were promised up to 8% back on their investments.
