US teen accused in parents' murder plotted Trump assassination: court filings
Advertisement
Nikita Casap, 17, was arrested last month after his mother, 35-year-old Tatiana Casap, and stepfather, 51-year-old Donald Mayer, were found dead inside their home in Waukesha, just east of Milwaukee.
He was charged with two counts of first-degree intentional homicide and other crimes, the Waukesha county sheriff's department announced on March 27.
This week, a search warrant filed with the US District Court for the eastern district of Wisconsin was unsealed, painting a chilling picture of the teen's motivation behind his alleged crimes.
According to documents, investigators found materials on electronic devices used by the teen in which he appeared to share the views of a neo-Nazi group named 'The Order of Nine Angels' – which is described by investigators as 'a network of individuals holding new-Nazi, racially motivated, extremist views'.

Investigators also found documents that refer to a manifesto that calls for the 'assassination of the President of the United States to foment a political revolution in the United States and 'save the white races' from 'Jewish-controlled' politicians.''

Trump falls for Zelensky's dapper look, 6 months after White House dressing down
The fates of nations have rarely, if ever, been decided by sartorial choices. But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was certainly hoping that a spot of fashion diplomacy on Monday could get US counterpart Donald Trump to help his country reach a peace deal with Russia. Despite the life-and-death matters unfolding in Ukraine, much of the speculation among the White House press corps was about whether Zelensky would wear a suit. In February, Ukraine's wartime leader was ridiculed by a right-wing US reporter for wearing military-style garb instead of a business suit when he visited the Oval Office. That mocking exchange set the tone for an astonishing blow-up a few minutes later when Trump and Vice-President J.D. Vance proceeded to berate Zelensky for not being 'grateful' for US support against Russia's invasion. What a difference six months makes.

Putin taps Brazil in China-linked peace push as Trump hosts Zelensky
As US President Donald Trump prepared for the arrival of his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky , Russia's Vladimir Putin turned to another partner to discuss a possible path out of the war: Brazil. The South American country's President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva spoke by phone with Putin on Monday, the Planalto Palace said, as Moscow pressed its case for new diplomatic efforts over the conflict. According to the official readout, Putin used the 40-minute call to brief Lula on his meeting in Alaska with Trump, which he described as 'positive'. He also 'praised Brazil's role in the Group of Friends for Peace', a joint initiative with China launched at the United Nations General Assembly in September. Play The Kremlin also released a press statement, adding that 'the presidents reaffirmed mutual interest in maintaining Russia-Brazil dialogue and closely cooperating within Brics'. The Brazil-China proposal centres on direct dialogue between Moscow and Kyiv and an eventual international peace conference. Its framework stands in contrast to the Ukrainian president's 10-point 'peace formula', first laid out in late 2022, which demands Russia's full withdrawal from occupied territory and the restoration of Ukraine's borders. Moscow welcomed the joint initiative from the outset, with Putin describing it as 'balanced' since it suggested Kyiv might have to cede land Russia now controls. But Ukraine rejected the proposal last September, accusing Beijing and Brasilia of serving Moscow's interests. Zelensky criticised the plan in his address to the General Assembly, warning it would give Putin room to prolong the war. 'If someone in the world seeks alternatives to any of these points or tries to ignore any of them, it likely means they themselves want to do a part of what Putin is doing,' he said.
