On Tuesday night‚ the Israeli government approved a significant peace deal with Hamas after a conflict that has already resulted in thousands of deaths and untold destruction in both Israel and the Gaza Strip. In the deal brokered by Israel’s government and Hamas‚ Hamas has agreed to release 80 hostages‚ while Israel has agreed to release women and minor prisoners who did not commit acts of violence against Israelis.  Israel also agreed to a four-day ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and will tack on an additional day for every 10 prisoners that Hamas releases. While some people said that the deal was progress towards a more significant peace agreement between Israel and the Gaza Strip‚ others derided the deal‚ calling it lopsided. The Times of Israel Reports– The Palestinians who will be released in the hostage deal are terrorists who were tried and convicted in court. The Israelis who will be freed are civilians who were ripped from their homes by Hamas terrorists. Don’t for a second believe this is an even swap. — Aviva Klompas (@AvivaKlompas) November 21‚ 2023 According to the developing deal‚ Hamas will release at least 50 Israeli hostages‚ mainly women and children‚ in exchange for a ceasefire of four days‚ the release of between 150 and 300 Palestinian prisoners‚ and the entry of fuel and other goods into Gaza. Some 12-13 hostages will be released per day as the ceasefire takes effect‚ the source says‚ adding that Israel will release women and minor prisoners‚ with each returning to the city or town where he lived prior to imprisonment‚ including the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Crickets from the Biden White House. Wojahn plead guilty to over 100 counts of possession and distribution of child s*xual abuse material. Wojahn was serving as mayor of College Park up until last March when he resigned to “deal with my own mental health.” The former mayor’s husband‚ Dave Kolesar‚ is standing by him and arguing that he is a good person: “In spite of everything‚ I continue to look up to him. To my husband‚ I want to say I love you.” Back in 2019‚ Wojahn called Buttigieg his “buddy” and said that he was even mentored by the now-Secretary of Transportation. “I actually met Mayor Pete Buttigieg shortly after I was elected mayor in 2015. I went to the US Conference of Mayors’ Winter Meeting in DC in January [2015] and he was assigned to be my buddy‚” Wojahn said in 2019 during an interview. “I now serve in a leadership role as vice chair of city livability and bicycling in part due to his mentorship.” College Park‚ Maryland Mayor‚ Patrick Wojahn‚ was charged with over 100 counts of child pornography‚ although thousands of children were victims.

Patrick Wojahn was sentenced for possessing and distributing images and videos of children‚ some of them infants and toddlers‚ being raped and sexually abused. Prosecutors say this was not a victimless crime. They say they were able to identify 52 of the hundreds of children depicted in the material. They spoke at length about the horrific abuse and how Wojahn’s role in viewing and sharing these videos helped to revictimize the children and to create a market for the material. “This sentence is instructive. It instructs us that child pornography is not simply about images. It’s about the pain behind the images‚” State’s Attorney for Prince George’s County Aisha Braveboy said. The victims are real people who experienced the abuse‚ Assistant State’s Attorney for Prince George’s County Jess Garth said. “They have to live what happened to them for rest of their lives‚” Garth said. “And also live with the knowledge that other people around the world will continue to view that abuse.” At least one of the known abuse victims died by suicide‚ prosecutors said. Meet Patrick Wojahn. Wojahn just pled guilty to over 100 counts connected to the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material involving over 500 victims.

He was sentenced to 150 years total‚ with all but 30 years suspended‚ but still will be eligible for parole in 7.5 years under state law‚ The Washington Post reported. The conviction came after investigators linked an account sharing illicit images to his government email address. “I do sense the remorsefulness‚” Prince George’s County Circuit Court Judge Karen Mason said of Wojahn on Monday during an emotional hearing when prosecutors read hours of victim impact statements. “And I do know you take responsibility.” Authorities say the 48-year-old uploaded and shared dozens of photos and videos depicting explicit child sex abuse‚ including the rape of prepubescent boys by adults‚ to social media apps in January‚ The Post reported. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children notified Prince George’s County Police Department of the social media activity in mid-February. Through their investigation‚ police determined a social media account with the screen name “skippy_md” belonged to Wojahn‚ FOX 5 DC reported. By means of a subpoena‚ investigators found that Wojahn’s College Park government email address was listed as the recovery email for the Kik account. Wojahn’s phone number and home IP address were linked to the account‚ according to authorities‚ who say the ex-mayor used a virtual private network to mask his location when accessing the account. More explicit images were also found on the social media app Telegram. WJZ aired this video report:

A New Hampshire man who reportedly lived a quiet life in a rundown trailer while wearing shabby clothes left an astonishing gift for his small hometown after passing away. Geoffrey Holt‚ a secret multi-millionaire who died at 82‚ lived in Hinsdale for decades. Holt‚ a former mill worker who generated wealth through smart investments‚ left $3.8 million for the town’s residents after his passing in June. According to the Daily Mail‚ Hinsdale has approximately 4‚200 residents. Most residents knew Holt as “the caretaker of his mobile home park‚ Stearns Park.” “He owned barely any furniture‚ shunned TVs and computers and slept on a bed with legs that went through his floor‚” Daily Mail writes. Geoffrey Holt‚ 82‚ lived a quiet life in Hinsdale‚ New Hampshire. He was a highly educated man that made quiet investments‚ and was very savvy with his money. He was happy just being the caretaker of a trailer park. He lived in a run-down trailer‚ barely had furniture‚ shunned… pic.twitter.com/BiL33I0EV3 — ProudArmyBrat (@leslibless) November 21‚ 2023 Daily Mail reports: An unassuming New Hampshire man who lived a threadbare existence has stunned his local community by gifting them $3.8 million following his death. Secret multimillionaire Geoffrey Holt‚ 82‚ lived quietly in the town of Hinsdale for decades until passing in June. His home was a rundown trailer and he was often seen sporting tatty clothes and riding around town on a lawnmower since he had no car. But now it has emerged the groundskeeper was sitting on a fortune‚ which he generously chose to share with his town after his death. ‘I don’t think anyone had any idea that he was that successful‚’ said Steve Diorio‚ chairperson of the town select board who’d occasionally wave at Holt from his car. ‘I know he didn’t have a whole lot of family‚ but nonetheless‚ to leave it to the town where he lived in … It’s a tremendous gift.’ “Holt‚ who earlier in life had worked as a production manager at a grain mill that closed in nearby Brattleboro‚ Vermont‚ was savvy with his money and would find a quiet place to sit near a brook and study financial publications‚” the outlet added. According to Edwin Smith‚ Holt’s best friend and former employer‚ one of Holt’s first investments into a mutual fund was in communications before the invention of cell phones. Holt didn’t know what to do with the money when he realized a couple million dollars was in the bank. Smith said his advice to his friend was “remember the town of Hinsdale.” For years‚ Geoffrey Holt was known as a mobile home park groundskeeper in a small New Hampshire town. Now‚ he's being remembered as a millionaire who gave his fortune to the community. pic.twitter.com/6RP4bUPJRZ — The Associated Press (@AP) November 21‚ 2023 The Associated Press added: His will had brief instructions: $3.8 million to the town of Hinsdale to benefit the community in the areas of education‚ health‚ recreation and culture. “I don’t think anyone had any idea that he was that successful‚” said Steve Diorio‚ chairperson of the town selectboard who’d occasionally wave at Holt from his car. “I know he didn’t have a whole lot of family‚ but nonetheless‚ to leave it to the town where he lived in … It’s a tremendous gift.” The money could go far in this Connecticut River town sandwiched between Vermont and Massachusetts with abundant hiking and fishing opportunities and small businesses. It’s named for Ebenezer Hinsdale‚ an officer in the French and Indian Wars who built a fort and a grist mill. In addition to Hinsdale’s house‚ built in 1759‚ the town has the nation’s oldest continually operating post office‚ dating back to 1816. There’s been no formal gathering to discuss ideas for the money since local officials were notified in September. Some residents have proposed upgrading the town hall clock‚ restoring buildings‚ maybe buying a new ballot counting machine in honor of Holt‚ who always made sure he voted. Another possibility is setting up an online drivers’ education course. Organizations would be be able to apply for grants via a trust through the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation‚ drawing from the interest‚ roughly about $150‚000 annually.
