U.S. indicts Russians in hacking of nuclear company WestinghouseThe charges of conspiracy to commit computer fraud and abuse and to commit wire fraud and money laundering came hours after Dutch authorities said they had disrupted an attempt by Russian intelligence agents to hack into the Hague-based Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons in April.

Westinghouse, which is located outside Pittsburgh, provides fuel, services and nuclear power plant design to customers, including Ukraine.

Posted: 03 Oct 2018 09:36 AM PDT

Trump plans travel push to stave off 'blue wave' in House racesTrump's Republican Party is at risk of losing control of the House in the Nov. 6 midterm vote at a time when, historically, the party in control of the White House loses ground in Congress. Trump heads on Thursday to Minnesota where Republicans want to give a boost to two House candidates: one in an open race and another, a first-term incumbent, who is running in a Democratic-leaning district. If a "blue wave" sweeps Democrats into power in the House, they could stop Trump's legislative agenda and tie up the White House with investigations.

US warns Russia over secret nuclear missile system: 'They are on notice'

Posted: 03 Oct 2018 03:45 AM PDT

US warns Russia over secret nuclear missile system: 'They are on notice'The US has threatened to respond to what it believes is Russia's covert development of a new missile system capable of launching quick nuclear strikes against Nato countries. Washington's ambassador to Nato said the US remained committed to a diplomatic solution, but would "match its capabilities" if the 9M729 system becomes operational. America believes Russia is developing the ground-launched missiles in breach of a Cold War treaty that could allow Moscow to launch a nuclear attack on Europe at short notice, but the Kremlin has consistently denied any such violation.
