Former Marine sentenced to 9 years in prison in firebombing of California Planned Parenthood clinic
cnn.com/2024/04/15/politics/planned-parenthood-attack-former-marine-sentenced/
Quick Glance: Former Marine sentenced to 9 years in prison for firebombing California Planned Parenthood clinic
- A former marine was sentenced to nine years in prison by the Justice Department on Monday after using a Molotov cocktail to attack a Planned Parenthood clinic in Costa Mesa, California. Chance Brannon, along with his co-defendant Tibet Ergul, plotted attacks on the clinic and a potential target on the power grid in 'furtherance of a race war.'
- Brannon, 24, pleaded guilty in November 2023 to being involved in a conspiracy, malicious destruction of property by fire and explosives, possession of an unregistered destructive device, and intentionally damaging a reproductive health services facility in violation of the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act.
- Planned Parenthood clinic attacks were abandoned due to law enforcement actions. Brannon was motivated by neo-Nazi ideology and planned further violent attacks. The National Abortion Federation reported a sharp increase in violence at abortion clinics in 2022.
- Brannon and Ergul also had plans to conduct an attack using a remote-detonated device during an LGBTQ+ pride event at Dodger Stadium, but were arrested two days prior. Before the arrest, Brannon even planned to rob Jewish individuals living in the Hollywood Hills.

Proxima Fusion raises $21M to build on its ‘stellarator’ approach to nuclear fusion
techcrunch.com/2024/04/09/proxima-fusion-raises-21m-to-build-on-its-stellarator-approach-to-nuclear-fusion/
Quick Glance: Proxima Fusion raises $21M to advance 'stellarator' nuclear fusion
- Venture capitalists' interest in fusion startups has fluctuated recently. Despite nuclear fusion companies attracting over $6 billion in investments in 2023, $1.4 billion more than in 2022, the 27% growth was slower due to external concerns like inflation.
- However, beyond the numbers, startup innovation in the field continues with novel approaches to harness the Sun's energy for safe and endless power.
- Proxima Fusion, the first spin-out of the renowned Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP), has raised €20 million ($21.7M) to kickstart the construction of its initial fusion power plants.
- The company's technology is based on 'quasi-isodynamic (QI) stellarators' with high-temperature superconductors, leveraging research from the Max Planck IPP, which developed the Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) experiment, the world's largest stellarator.
