After a video of the incident was posted to Facebook in January (it has since been removed), critics deemed it irresponsible, though one of the zoo’s owners, Doug […]

WARSAW (Sputnik) - Czech President Milos Zeman said on Thursday he doubted Czech lawmakers’ conclusion that the country had never produced and stored any Novichok-family nerve agents allegedly used in the poisoning of Russian double agent Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia.
ORDINARILY, at the end of a Supreme Court oral argument, the chief justice announces that “the case is submitted”, the gavel bangs, and nothing more is heard until the ruling is released weeks later. Not so with Trump v Hawaii, the battle over the legality of Donald Trump’s travel ban that was heard on April 25th.
