Employees at both small companies and
defense giants like Lockheed Martin Corp.,
Raytheon Co., Boeing Co., Airbus Group and
General Atomics were targeted by the hackers.
A handful of people in Fancy Bear’s sights also
worked for trade groups, contractors in U.S.-al-

Casino mogul
Wynn resigns amid
sex misconduct claims
LAS VEGAS — Facing investigations by
gambling regulators and allegations of sex-
ual misconduct, billionaire casino mogul Steve
Wynn has stepped down as chairman and CEO
of the resorts bearing his names.
The Las Vegas-based Wynn Resorts in a
statement said Wynn’s resignation Tuesday was
effective immediately. It came less than two
weeks after the Wall Street Journal reported
that a number of women said Wynn harassed or
assaulted them and that one case led to a $7.5
million settlement.
“In the last couple of weeks, I have found
myself the focus of an avalanche of negative
publicity,” Wynn said in a written statement.
“As I have reflected upon the environment this
has created — one in which a rush to judgment
takes precedence over everything else, including
the facts — I have reached the conclusion I can-
not continue to be effective in my current roles.”
Wynn has vehemently denied the report’s
allegations, which he attributes to a campaign
led by his ex-wife. An attorney for Elaine Wynn
has denied that she instigated the news report.
Wynn now faces investigations by gambling
regulators in Nevada and Massachusetts, where
the company is building a roughly $2.4 billion
casino just outside Boston. The company ear-
lier said a committee of independent directors
would investigate the allegations that surfaced
Jan. 26.
Wynn is a titan in Sin City and played a major
role in the revitalization of the Las Vegas Strip in
the 1990s. He built the Bellagio, Treasure Island
and Mirage before he sold his Mirage Resorts
company in 2000. Two years later, he founded
Wynn Resorts, which now operates two luxuri-
ous casino-resorts in the city and is in the pro-
cess of building a lake and hotel development
called Paradise Park on the site of a former golf
course.
New budget barrier:
Pelosi opposes pact
if no ‘Dreamer’ help
WASHINGTON — The House’s top Demo-
crat swung out against a bipartisan budget deal
taking shape in the Senate today, splashing cold
water on a two-year plan packed with almost
$400 billion worth of additional funding for the
Pentagon, domestic programs and disaster aid.
That raises anew the possibility of a government
shutdown at midnight Thursday.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of Cal-
ifornia announced she would oppose the bud-
get measure unless the chamber’s GOP lead-
ers promised a vote on legislation to protect
“Dreamer” immigrants who face deporta-
tion after being brought to the U.S. illegally as
children.
Pelosi took to the House floor, promising
to speak for hours, and said she would oppose
that almost-completed budget pact even though
it would boost funding for many domestic pri-
orities favored by Democrats. She declared the
agreement “does not have my support, nor does

Trump continues to paint
immigrants as criminals
Taiwan Presidential Office
President Tsai Ing-wen, center back-facing, is briefed today at the site of a col-
lapsed building from an earthquake in Hualien, southeastern Taiwan.
6 dead, 76 missing after
strong quake hits Taiwan
HUALIEN, Taiwan — Rescuers worked today to free people trapped after a strong earth-
quake near Taiwan’s east coast caused several buildings to cave in and tilt dangerously. At
least six people were killed and 76 could not be contacted following the quake.
At least four midsized buildings in worst-hit Hualien county leaned at sharp angles, their
lowest floors crushed into mangled heaps of concrete, glass, iron and other debris. Firefight-
ers climbed ladders hoisted against windows to reach residents inside apartments.
The shifting of the buildings after the magnitude 6.4 quake late Tuesday night was likely
caused by soil liquefaction, when the ground beneath a building loses its solidity under stress
such as that caused by an earthquake.
Two employees of the hotel were killed in the disaster, CNA said. Taiwan’s National Fire
Agency said rescuers freed another employee from the rubble.
Other buildings slanted at alarming degrees and rescuers used ladders, ropes and cranes
to move residents to safety.
Six people were killed in the quake, while 256 others were injured and 76 unaccounted
for, according to the fire agency. CNA reported that seven had been killed.
The force of the tremor buckled roads and disrupted electricity and water supplies to thou-
sands of households, the fire agency said.
Rescuers focused on the Yunmen Tsuiti residential building that was tilted at a nearly
45-degree angle, erecting long steel beams to prevent it from collapsing.
it have the support of a large number of mem-
bers of our caucus.”
She spoke as liberal activists protested that
many Democrats were moving to leave Dreamer
immigrants behind in grabbing the budget deal,
a longstanding goal for the party.
Pelosi said the House should debate immi-
gration legislation and noted that Senate Repub-
licans have slated a debate on the politically
freighted subject starting next week.
A possible government shutdown is now in
the picture again. The House on Tuesday passed
legislation to keep the government running
through March 23, marrying a stopgap spending
measure with a $659 billion Pentagon spending
plan, but that measure is likely to be rewritten in
the Senate.
On the right, Rep. Mark Meadows, R-N.C.,
leader of the hard-line House Freedom Caucus,
also said he opposes the emerging bipartisan
deal, which could be unveiled today.

WASHINGTON — Russian cyberspies pur-
suing the secrets of military drones and other
sensitive U.S. defense technology tricked key
contract workers into exposing their email to
theft, an Associated Press investigation has
found.
What ultimately may have been stolen is
uncertain, but the hackers clearly exploited a
national vulnerability in cybersecurity: poorly
protected email and barely any direct notifica-
tion to victims.
The hackers known as Fancy Bear, who also
intruded in the U.S. election, went after at least
87 people working on militarized drones, mis-
siles, rockets, stealth fighter jets, cloud-comput-

WASHINGTON — President Donald
Trump is continuing his habit of painting immi-
grants as criminals, highlighting gang connec-
tions, calling family reunification a national
security threat and bemoaning the death of a
pro football player involved in a car accident
with a man living in the country illegally.
Speaking to law enforcement officials at
the White House on Tuesday, Trump singled
out the MS-13 gang, which is believed to be
behind 25 killings on New York’s Long Island
in the past two years, and has become a prime
target of the Trump administration.
“We’ve really never seen anything quite
like this, the level of ferocity, the level of vio-
lence, and the reforms we need from Congress
to defeat it,” Trump told law enforcement offi-
cials and lawmakers, eventually threaten-
ing another federal government shutdown if
Democrats don’t agree to pass an immigration
package he said would help keep gang mem-
bers out.
“If we don’t get rid of these loopholes where
killers are allowed to come into our country
and continue to kill ... if we don’t change it,
let’s have a shutdown,” Trump suggested. “I’d
love to see a shutdown if we don’t get this stuff
taken care of.”
Trump’s latest threat is part of a pressure
campaign he has been waging to try to get
Democrats to sign onto a sweeping immigra-
tion plan that they’ve rejected. The president
wants billions for a southern border wall, major
cuts to legal immigration, and more money
for interior enforcement and other changes in
exchange for granting a pathway to citizenship
for up to 1.8 million young immigrants living
in the country illegally.
Pence says US to
unveil ‘toughest’
sanctions on N. Korea
TOKYO — Vice President Mike Pence said
the U.S. is preparing to announce the “tough-
est and most aggressive” economic sanctions
against North Korea in the coming days, boost-
ing pressure on the bellicose government during
the Winter Olympics.
Pence, who is set to lead the U.S.
delegation to the opening ceremonies Fri-
day, made the announcement in Japan today,
following meetings with Prime Minister Shinzo
Abe.
“The United States of America will
soon unveil the toughest and most aggres-
sive round of economic sanctions on North
Korea ever — and we will continue to isolate
North Korea until it abandons its nuclear and
ballistic missile programs once and for all,”
Pence said.
