NATION/WORLD East Oregonian Page 6A BRIEFLY Philippine volcano spews lava fountains, 56,000 people flee LEGAZPI, Philippines (AP) — The Philippines’ most active volcano spewed fountains of red-hot lava and massive ash plumes anew Tuesday in a dazzling but increasingly dangerous eruption that has sent more than 56,000 villagers fleeing to evacuation centers. Lava fountains gushed up 2,300 feet above Mount Mayon’s crater and ash plumes rose up to 1.9 miles Monday night. At least three major AP Photo/Bullit Marquez blasts followed Tuesday, including an explosion at nightfall that was capped by one of the most massive lava displays since the volcano started acting up more than a week ago, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology said. “We couldn’t sleep last night because of the loud rumblings. It sounded like an airplane that’s about to land,” Quintin Velardo, a 59-year-old farmer, told The Associated Press at an evacuation center in Legazpi city where he took his wife, children and grandchildren on Tuesday. Despite the danger, he said he needed to return to his village, about 5 miles from the erupting volcano, to take his cow and water buffalo to safety. A few minutes later, the volcano belched a massive column of grayish ash that punched through white clouds into the blue sky. Schumer takes back wall offer in new immigration push WASHINGTON (AP) — Top Senate Democrat Chuck Schumer on Tuesday pulled back an offer of $25 billion for President Donald Trump’s long-promised southern border wall, as lawmakers scrambled to figure out how to push a deal to protect 700,000 or more so-called Dreamer immigrants from deportation. Schumer had made the offer last Friday in a last-ditch effort to head off a government shutdown, then came scalding criticism from his party’s liberal activist base that Democrats had given up too easily in reopening the government without more concrete promises on immigration. “We’re going to have to start on a new basis, and the wall offer’s off the table,” Schumer, D-N.Y., told reporters. The shutdown battle — settled mostly on Trump’s terms — complicated the already difficult search for an immigration pact: GOP hard-liners appeared emboldened, while Democrats absorbed withering criticism from progressives. Neither development seemed likely to push the combatants toward the compromises needed to produce a bill that can pass both the tea party-driven House and the more pragmatic Senate. Still, there were fresh signs of a willingness to keep hunting for a solution, with a flurry of meetings on Capitol Hill and an assessment from White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders that “I don’t think they’re that far apart.” Wednesday, January 24, 2018 Special counsel questions Sessions; Is Trump’s turn coming soon? WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Jeff Sessions was questioned for hours in the special counsel’s Russia investigation, the Justice Department said Tuesday, as prosecutors moved closer to a possible interview with President Donald Trump about whether he took steps to obstruct an FBI probe into contacts between Russia and his 2016 campaign. The Sessions interview last week makes him the highest-ranking Trump administration official, and first Cabinet member, known to have submitted to ques- tioning. It came as special counsel Robert Mueller investigates whether Trump’s actions in office, including the firing of FBI Director James Comey, constitute improper efforts to stymie the FBI investigation. With many of Trump’s closest aides having now been questioned, the president and his lawyers are preparing for the prospect of an interview that would likely focus on some of the same obstruc- tion questions. Expected topics for any sit-down with Mueller, who has expressed interest in speaking with Trump, would include not only Comey’s firing but also interactions the fired FBI director has said unnerved him, including a request from AP Photo/Carolyn Kaster, File In this Dec. 15 file photo, United States Attorney Gen- eral Jeff Sessions speaks during a news conference at the Justice Department in Washington. the president that he end an investigation into a top White House official. In the Oval Office on Tuesday, Trump said he was “not at all concerned” about what Sessions may have told the Mueller team. The recent questioning of the country’s chief law enforcement officer shows the investigators’ determined interest in the obstruction question that has been at the heart of the investigation for months through interviews of many current and former White House officials. Sessions himself is a potentially important witness given his role as a key Trump surrogate on the campaign trail and his direct involve- ment in the May 9 firing of Comey, which he advocated. The White House initially said the termination was done on the recommendation of the Justice Department and cited as justification a memo from Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein that faulted Comey for his handling of the Hillary Clinton email server investigation. But Trump said later that he was thinking of “this Russia thing” when he fired Comey, and he had decided to make the move even before the Justice Department’s recommendations. Sessions was one of Trump’s earliest and most Two dead, 17 injured in Kentucky school shooting BENTON, Ky. (AP) — A 15-year-old student killed two classmates and hit a dozen others with gunfire Tuesday, methodically firing a handgun inside a crowded atrium at his rural Kentucky high school. “He was determined. He knew what he was doing,” said Alexandria Caporali, who grabbed her stunned friend and ran into a class- room as their classmates hit the floor. “It was one right after another — bang, bang, bang, bang, bang,” she added. “You could see his arm jerking as he was pulling the trigger.” He kept firing, she said, until he ran out of ammunition and took off running, trying to get away. Police arrested their suspect moments later, leading him away in handcuffs to be charged with murder and attempted murder. Authorities did not identify the gunman responsible for the nation’s first fatal school shooting of 2018, nor did they release any details about a motive. Kentucky State Police Lt. Michael Webb said detec- tives are looking into his home and background. “He was apprehended by the sheriff’s department here on site, at the school, thank- fully before any more lives could be taken,” Webb said.

He was present for an April 2016 Trump foreign policy speech at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, where he spoke with the Russian ambassador to the United States. He also attended a meeting a month earlier with campaign aides including George Papadopoulos, a foreign policy adviser who pleaded guilty last year to lying to the FBI. Sessions may well have been asked during his Mueller interview about any interactions he had with Papadopoulos, as well as about his own encounters during the campaign with the Russian ambassador. He might also be able to supply information about White House efforts to discourage him from recusing himself from the Russia investigation, which he did last March after acknowledging two previ- ously undisclosed encounters with the ambassador. And he may also have been asked about an episode from last February in which Comey says Trump cleared the room of Sessions and other officials before encouraging him to end an investigation into fired national security adviser Michael Flynn. 3 PM 3:30 4 PM 4:30 7 PM 7:30 Last Last Man St. Man St. News (N) Action News News (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News News News (N) (N) News News Arthur Business (N) Wild Wild Kratts Kratts 7 PM 7:30 6 PM 6:30 7 PM 7:30 8 PM 8:30 9 PM 9:30 10 PM 10:30 11 PM 11:30 Modern Modern Family Family News (N) Action Inside News Edition News News News Family (N) Feud KGW News (N) News News (N) (N) KATU News (N) PBS NewsHour (N) 2 Broke 2 Broke The X-Files (N) 9-1-1 "Worst Day Girls Girls Ever" (N) Feud Feud The X-Files (N) 9-1-1 (N) The Big TheSi- The Amazing Race "Gotta Put Your Bang mpsons Sole Into It" (N) Extra ET Race "Gotta Put Your Sole Into It" (N) Wheel Jeop- Law&Order: SVU Law&Order: SVU (N) ardy!
