Former Black Lives Matter activist Xaviaer DuRousseau now supports mass incarceration for violent criminals, while Japan seized a Chinese fishing vessel amid rising tensions with Beijing, and Prince Andrew's alleged entitled behavior continues to draw scrutiny, according to recent reports. These developments highlight a range of international and domestic issues making headlines.
Xaviaer DuRousseau, a PragerU host and personality, told Fox News Digital that he supports arresting and keeping criminals in jail. "It's very easy to not go to jail," he stated, adding, "Don't do a crime. Obey the law, and you'll be able to live a beautiful life." This shift in perspective comes as DuRousseau, who once marched for BLM, now advocates for stricter measures to address crime.
Meanwhile, in international affairs, Japan seized a Chinese fishing vessel in its exclusive economic zone off Nagasaki Prefecture on Thursday, according to the country's fisheries agency. The vessel's captain was arrested after allegedly failing to comply with an inspection order and attempting to flee. This marks the first such seizure since 2022 and comes amid escalating tensions between the two nations. China has yet to respond to Japan's statement.
