A Minnesota state employee who vandalized six Tesla vehicles last year, causing up to $21,000 in damage, received no jailtime and just a single-day suspension from his job, state records show.

Dylan Adams, an employee with the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), was caught on Tesla security cameras keying the vehicles in March and early April 2025, amid a rash of anti-Tesla vandalism and firebomb attacks throughout the nation.

The anti-Tesla attacks coincided with nationwide “Tesla Takedown” demonstrations organized by ActBlue-funded groups to agitate against Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s role in the Trump administration as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

Dylan Adams, an employee with the Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS), was caught on Tesla security cameras keying the vehicles in March and early April 2025, amid a rash of anti-Tesla vandalism and firebomb attacks throughout the nation.

The anti-Tesla attacks coincided with nationwide “Tesla Takedown” demonstrations organized by ActBlue-funded groups to agitate against Tesla CEO Elon Musk’s role in the Trump administration as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).

As the Fiscal Policy Analyst and Compliance Lead on DHS’s Program Integrity Team, Adams is reportedly responsible for preventing  waste, fraud and abuse in public benefit programs in a state that has recently seen an estimated $300 million in child nutrition funds and $9 billion in Medicaid funds lost to waste, fraud, and abuse.

According to a report on the Minnesota DHS investigation, Adams indicated that he was “concerned” about Musk making a “Nazi salute” during a 2024 campaign event, a malicious smear propagated by Democrats and their allies in the media.

He also admitted that he vandalized the Teslas “in hopes the owners would disassociate themselves from Elon Musk and Tesla.”

Adams told investigators he was “on a break” or “out sick” during the times he was out keying Tesla vehicles, however Adams’ state time card, obtained by Alpha News, shows he logged a full eight-hour workday during the time period he was committing some of the crimes.

Regardless, he was “punished” with just an unpaid, one-day suspension on Thursday, Jan. 22, 2026.

“You are reminded that you are expected to comply with all Enterprise and Agency policies and fulfill your responsibility of maintaining public trust; failure to do so could result in further disciplinary action up to and including termination of your employment,” a letter sent to Adams on Jan. 20 reads.

Adams was informed that he had the right to appeal the day off, but there is no indication that he objected to the minor slap on the wrist.

Minnesota House Republican Leader Harry Niska said:

“the message is clear: if you belong to a certain class of state employees, Gov. Walz and Minnesota Democrats will protect you.”

Soros-backed Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty (D.) announced last year that the vandal would not be charged with a crime and would instead opt for a “diversion program” for him.

“We offered diversion as we often do with property damage cases when the person has no record,”Moriarty’s spokesman said. 

“Mr. Adams will have to complete the requirements of the program. He will also have to pay every penny in restitution to the victims. If he does not meet those requirements, we will proceed through the criminal legal system process.”

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara expressed frustration with the decision not to pursue felony charges, noting the significant damage and impact on multiple victims.

“The Minneapolis Police Department did its job. It identified and investigated a crime trend, identified, and arrested a suspect, and presented a case file to the Hennepin County Attorney Office for consideration of charges,” O’Hara said in a statement to media outlets last April.

“This case impacted at least six different victims and totaled over $20,000 in damages. Any frustration related to the charging decision of the Hennepin County Attorney should be directed solely at her office. Our investigators are always frustrated when the cases they poured their hearts into are declined. In my experience, the victims in these cases often feel the same.”

Germany Is Now Officially A Planned Economy

BY TYLER DURDEN

SATURDAY, MAR 07, 2026 - 04:00 AM

Authored by Eduard Braun via Mises Institute,

Germany’s push for a social-ecological market economy rests on far-reaching state interventions in energy and industry, including a government-driven hydrogen strategy. In a recent report Germany’s Federal Audit Office explicitly describes the policy as a planned economy and highlights fundamental problems. At the same time, it doubts that the government will reach its own targets, indicating that these climate-policy experiments are likely to fail even on their own terms.

Germany’s “social-ecological transformation” is the political program of turning the existing social market economy into what the government calls a “social-ecological market economy.” In practice, this means that climate and environmental targets are placed above the spontaneous outcomes of markets, and the state increasingly directs investment, production, and consumption through detailed regulation, bans, subsidies, and new bureaucratic structures.

The federal government has committed itself—through the Paris Agreement, the EU Green Deal, the EU Climate Law, and Germany’s own Climate Change Act—to achieving greenhouse-gas neutrality by 2045. On this basis, it is pushing a comprehensive restructuring of the entire energy and industrial base. Fossil fuels are to be phased out and replaced by renewable energy sources and new technologies. To enforce this, Berlin is tightening emissions limits, introducing sector-specific reduction paths, and expanding carbon pricing. At the same time, it is rolling out large-scale subsidy programs and support schemes aimed at “climate-friendly” investments, ranging from energy-intensive industries to housing, transport, and agriculture. According to the Scientific Service of the German Bundestag, the transformation will cost about 13 trillion euros (roughly 15.3 trillion dollars).

Central to this transformation is not merely setting general framework conditions, but steering concrete technological choices: the government explicitly promotes certain technologies (such as hydrogen, battery-electric mobility, and “green” industrial processes) and discourages or prohibits others. It also relies on binding planning instruments and long-term “transformation roadmaps” for entire sectors of the economy. Officially, this is presented as a modernization strategy that will preserve prosperity while making Germany climate-neutral. In reality, it increasingly replaces decentralized entrepreneurial decisions and price signals with political targets and administrative plans.

Germany’s Federal Audit Office (“Bundesrechnungshof”) is an official state institution, not a libertarian think tank. It reports to parliament and examines whether the federal government uses public funds lawfully and efficiently. Precisely this body, in its October 28, 2025 report on Germany’s national hydrogen strategy, delivers an unusually clear verdict on the economic character of current climate policy.

The report states that hydrogen is supposed to play a “key role in the energy transition,” yet “there is a lack of supply, demand, and infrastructure” (p. 2). In other words, the government is trying to build an entire market around a product that is scarcely available, scarcely needed under current conditions, and cannot be traded at scale because the necessary pipelines and facilities are missing. The Audit Office further emphasizes that “hydrogen is significantly more expensive than energy sources used to date. The Federal Government is supporting the ramp-up of the hydrogen economy with several billion euros annually, following a planned economy approach” (p. 2, emphasis added). Here, the central term—“planned economy approach”—comes directly from an official oversight body describing government policy, not from its critics.

Despite this massive use of subsidies and dirigiste steering, the Audit Office concludes that the government remains “far from reaching its goal of establishing a hydrogen economy by 2030” (p. 2). In short, the watchdog authority finds that Berlin is using a planned economy method, paying far higher costs for hydrogen than for existing energy sources, and still failing to come close to its own targets.

From the perspective of Austrian economics, none of this should be surprising. Ludwig von Mises argued that once governments move from a market order to a system of political planning, they inevitably undermine the very mechanisms—prices, profits, and losses—that coordinate economic activity. Central planners cannot know the relative scarcities, preferences, and technological possibilities that millions of entrepreneurs discover only through free exchange. The result is misallocation of capital, persistent shortages and surpluses, and a gradual erosion of prosperity.

Germany’s “social-ecological market economy” is a textbook illustration of this dynamic. The state declares hydrogen and other favored technologies to be the “future,” pours billions into subsidies, and attempts to construct markets by decree. Yet even an official body like the Federal Audit Office now describes this as a “planned economy approach” and doubts that the government will reach its own goals. In all likelihood, Germany is about to confirm once again what Mises showed in theory a century ago: planned economies do not deliver their promised outcomes. Instead, they generate rising costs, failing projects, and increasing chaos—while making society poorer in the process.

British Lawmaker's Husband Arrested On Suspicion Of Spying For China

Weeks after China's mega-embassy opened in London (the one that's right next to all of their tappable communications cables), the husband of Labour Party whip Joani Reid was arrested over Chinese espionage concerns, prompting the lawmaker to step aside amid ongoing probes.

Reid's membership in the party is now under suspension while she remains an elected lawmaker, as her husband, 39-year-old David Taylor, was one of three men arrested on Wednesday under the National Security Act. The men allegedly assisted a Chinese intelligence agency. 

In addition to Taylor, former Labour Party press officer Matthew Aplin and former Welsh government special advisor Steve Jones were identified as the other two who were arrested.  

As the Epoch Times notes further, Reid stressed that she’s not under investigation and that neither she nor her children are involved in her husband’s business activities.

“I have done nothing wrong. I ⁠love ​my country,” she said in a statement, noting she has not seen anything to make her suspect her husband has “broken any law.”

She described the suspension as voluntary.

“This week ​has been ​the worst ⁠of my life,” she said.

Chinese espionage concerns have grown in the country recently, with domestic intelligence agency MI5 warning the country’s politicians that they are targets of Chinese agents. On the same day of the trio’s arrests, two other men—a Hong Kong police superintendent and a UK border official—went on trial on charges of spying on the Hong Kong diaspora in the country.

Authorities on March 4 also raided the house of a veteran British journalist over the latest spying case.

The journalist, Martin Shipton, described loud banging that woke him up early in the morning.

In a piece for Nation.Cymru, a Welsh news service, Shipton recalled going on an all-expense-paid trip with Taylor to Hong Kong at Taylor’s invitation. The trip happened about three years ago and lasted around a week, funded by a Chinese think tank that advised the top Chinese leader on international relations, he said. He emphasized that he was not under arrest and that he voluntarily gave a statement to the police about the trip.

At the House of Commons chamber, UK Minister of State for Security Dan Jarvis expressed alarm over “an increasing pattern of covert activity from Chinese state-linked actors targeting UK democracy,” whether it be gathering intelligence on policymaking or active interference in governance.

British officials have raised strong concerns with their Chinese counterparts in both London and Beijing, he said.

Multiple local lawmakers took the occasion to highlight security risks they saw with plans of a new, expanded Chinese embassy that their government greenlit in January.

“The Chinese only represent strength, and for them everything is transactional,” Conservative lawmaker Edward Leigh said.

He called on the UK authorities to summon the Chinese ambassador over the “intolerable” actions.

“You cannot build this mega-embassy in just about the most sensitive site in London while you behave like this,” he said.

In the United States, Chairman of the House Select Committee on the CCP Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.) echoed the view.

He noted another Chinese spy trial in London last fall, which collapsed before it began because the government failed to provide evidence that China represents a national security threat.

“The British government’s failure to properly prosecute alleged spies last fall, coupled with its approval of China’s mega embassy, only emboldens the CCP’s espionage activities in the UK,” Moolenaar said.

He urged the UK to rescind the Chinese mega embassy approval and prosecute the cases thoroughly.

“As one of our closest security partners with access to American intelligence on China, the UK’s commitment to protecting sensitive information must be beyond doubt,” he said.

Reid’s office didn’t respond to a query from The Epoch Times by publication time.

Four illegal migrants, who are members of the notorious MS-13 gang, have been indicted after they allegedly brutally murdered a 14-year-old boy in a Maryland park.

Jose Vladimir Merlos, 18, Alam Josai Garcia-Padilla, 21, William Cuellar Gutierrez, 19, and a 17-year-old were indicted on charges, including first-degree murder, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and participation in a criminal organization, according to Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Tara Jackson.

All four indicted are MS-13 gang members and illegal immigrants, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) confirmed.

Jefferson Amaya-Ayala, 14, of Washington, DC, was reported missing on Aug. 2, 2025.

Nearly three months later, on Nov. 3, Prince George’s County police announced that officers had recovered “what appeared to be possible human remains” in a park in Prince George’s County.

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) later identified the remains as Amaya-Ayala and determined he died from “multiple injuries,” ruling the death a homicide.

Through their investigation, detectives identified the four suspects in the alleged homicide. Authorities said that their preliminary investigation found that Amaya-Ayala “was lured” to the park and murdered on Aug. 2.

Police said that the teen “knew at least one of the four suspects,” adding that the murder appears gang-related. However, the motive remains under investigation.

DHS identified Merlos as a Salvadoran national, who authorities allege is affiliated with MS-13. DHS said he was previously arrested in Washington, DC, on charges including defacing public property and possession of a prohibited weapon after allegedly spray-painting MS-13 gang symbols on homes.

DHS said Garcia-Padilla, 21, also a Salvadoran national alleged to be an MS-13 member, was previously convicted in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia of attempted unlawful possession of ammunition.

He was also found in possession of fraudulent documents, including a lawful permanent resident card and a Social Security card, according to DHS.

The agency said Garcia-Padilla was released from custody during the Biden administration.

Cuellar Gutierrez was also identified by DHS as a Salvadoran national and alleged MS-13 member.

He was previously arrested by the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia on multiple weapons-related charges, including possession of a large-capacity ammunition feeding device, possession of an unregistered firearm, carrying a pistol without a license, carrying a pistol without a license in a gun-free zone, and possession of unregistered ammunition.

DHS said he was released from custody during the Biden administration.

A fourth suspect, a 17-year-old, has also been charged.

Canada set to surpass 100,000 assisted suicides — more than the country’s WWII death toll

https://nypost.com/2026/03/07/world-news/canada-set-to-pass-100000-assisted-suicide-deaths-before-programs-10th-anniversary-societal-failing/

Canada is set to pass a grim milestone in its medically-assisted suicide program with a total of 100,000 citizens projected to be euthanized by the government before its 10th anniversary on June 17.

The Great White North’s MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying) program will soon cross the sickly six-figure threshold, according to The National Post.

Ottawa’s most recent data shows 15,767 Canadians were euthanized by the state in 2024 — 5.1% of all deaths in the nation that year.

An Iranian woman who lost her eye after she was shot by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard during the “Woman, Life, Freedom” protests in 2022 is slamming former Vice President Kamala Harris over her response to the bombings in Iran.

Mersedeh Shahinkar, a mother and activist living in California, still carries the scars of the Islamic Republic’s crackdown on anti-government demonstrations.

Speaking with the California Post, Shahinkar weighed in on fellow activist Masih Alinejad’s recent Fox News interview, where Alinejad blasted Harris for criticizing President Trump over the deadly US-Israeli strikes on Iran.

“I am tired of seeing some politicians here in America, especially Democrats, making this about their own politics, scoring political points like Kamala Harris,” Alinejad lashed out.

Last weekend, Harris issued a statement describing the attack as “a war the American people do not want” after Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei was killed in his fortified compound along with 40 top security and regime officials.
