WORLD IN BRIEF
bulent 2018 primary season lurched toward its
finale. A one-time Trump critic, former two-
term Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, lost a
comeback attempt he was expected to win.
Trump fired off a celebratory tweet Wednes-
day, hailing “Great Republican election results”
and adding “Red Wave!” He also endorsed
a series of candidates in Wisconsin, includ-
ing Bryan Steil who won the GOP primary for
the House seat held by Speaker Paul Ryan and
Leah Vukmir, who will face Democratic Sen.
Tammy Baldwin in November.

Report: Pennsylvania
priests molested over
1,000 children
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Hundreds of Roman
Catholic priests in Pennsylvania molested more
than 1,000 children — and possibly many more
— since the 1940s, and senior church officials,
including a man who is now the archbishop
of Washington, D.C., systematically covered
up the abuse, according to a grand jury report
released Tuesday.
The “real number” of abused children might
be in the thousands since some secret church
records were lost, and victims were afraid to
come forward, the grand jury said.
“Priests were raping little boys and girls, and
the men of God who were responsible for them
not only did nothing. They hid it all,” Attorney
General Josh Shapiro said.
The report put the number of abusive clergy
at more than 300. In nearly all of the cases, the
statute of limitations has run out, meaning that
criminal charges cannot be filed. More than
100 of the priests are dead, and many others are
retired or have been dismissed from the priest-
hood or put on leave.
“We are sick over all the crimes that will
go unpunished and uncompensated,” the grand
jury said.
Authorities evaluated each suspect and were
able to charge just two, including a priest who
has since pleaded guilty. Shapiro said the inves-
tigation is ongoing.
The grand jury accused Cardinal Donald
Wuerl, who leads the Washington archdiocese,
of helping to protect abusive priests when he
was Pittsburgh’s bishop. Wuerl, who led the
Pittsburgh diocese from 1988 to 2006, disputed
the allegations.
Dems pick ‘firsts,’ GOP
goes for Trump fave in
primaries
ST. PAUL, Minn. — In a night of firsts,
Democrats in Vermont’s primary chose the
nation’s first transgender gubernatorial nomi-
nee. In Minnesota, they picked a woman who
would be the first Somali-American member of
Congress. Connecticut Democrats nominated
a candidate who could become the first black
woman from the state to serve in Congress.

Paul Manafort’s lawyers walk to federal court for closing arguments.
Prosecution: ‘Manafort and
his lies’ at heart of case
ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Paul Manafort lied to keep himself flush with cash and to maintain his
luxurious lifestyle when his income dropped off, prosecutors told jurors today in closing arguments
in the former Trump campaign chairman’s financial fraud trial.
The government’s case boils down to “Mr. Manafort and his lies,” prosecutor Greg Andres said.
“When you follow the trail of Mr. Manafort’s money, it is littered with lies,” Andres said as
he made his final pitch that the jury should weigh a trove of evidence presented over the past few
weeks and find Manafort guilty of 18 felony counts.
Attorneys for Manafort, who is accused of tax evasion and bank fraud, will have their chance in
front of jurors later in the day.
Andres took jurors through a methodical rundown of the 18 charges, and the documentary evi-
dence supporting each.
A screen showed jurors emails written by Manafort that contained some of the most damning
evidence indicating he was aware of the fraud, and not simply a victim of underlings who managed
his financial affairs.
Andres highlighted one email in which he said Manafort sent an inflated statement of his
income to bank officers reviewing a loan application he submitted. He highlighted another in which
Manafort acknowledged his control of one of more than 30 holding companies in Cyprus that
prosecutors say Manafort used to funnel more than $60 million he earned advising politicians in
Ukraine.
Prosecutors say Manafort falsely declared that money to be loans rather than income to keep
from paying taxes on it.
Manafort chose not to testify or call any witnesses in his defense.
Democrats embraced diversity in Tuesday
primaries, while Republicans in Minnesota
rejected a familiar face of the GOP old guard in
favor of a rising newcomer aligned with Presi-
dent Donald Trump.
But Minnesota Democrats also backed a
national party leader who is facing accusations
of domestic violence. He has denied the allega-
tions, yet they threaten to undercut enthusiasm
in his state and beyond.
On the other side, Trump tightened his grip
on the modern-day Republican Party as the tur-
CHICAGO — Top U.S. Drug Enforcement
Administration officials will unveil new plans
to combat Mexican drug cartels today in Chi-
cago alongside members of the Mexican gov-
ernment, military and federal police, officials
said.
The announcement at a joint news confer-
ence will be a public display of bilateral coop-
eration amid ongoing tensions over President
Donald Trump’s trade and immigration pol-
icies, including over his vow to build a wall
along the nearly 2,000-mile U.S.-Mexican
border.
The new plans include putting greater
emphasis on attacking cartels’ financial infra-
structure. Plans also call for a new enforcement
group based in Chicago that will concentrate on
international investigations of cartels.
Matthew G. Donahue, director for the DEA’s
North and Central American Region, said Tues-
day that the U.S. wants to rely more on changes
in the Mexican legal system in recent years
designed to make evidence gathering and pros-
ecutions more efficient.
“The new game plan is ... pick up the speed
and arrest more people, faster,” Donahue said.
“That’s what we’re really trying to push — the
cooperation that we currently have with Mex-
ico to be a little more efficient, a little bit more
aggressive.”
He said the U.S. also intends to do more to
help stem the flow of guns into Mexico that
contributes to deadly violence in the country.
Around 31,000 people were killed in Mexico
last year, a record for a single year.
Donahue said the targeting of top cartel
brass will remain a core component of bids to
disrupt the powerful syndicates. The biggest
trophy in this long-standing kingpin strategy
was Sinaloa Cartel leader Joaquin “El Chapo”
Guzman, extradited to New York in 2017 to
face U.S. trafficking charges.
