3 Southern California residents sentenced in bear suit insurance fraud scheme Three Southern California residents have been sentenced in a bizarre insurance fraud scheme which prosecutors say involved them staging fake bear attacks on high-end cars.

People tried to scam insurance by dressing up as a bear and wrecking luxury cars.

"Investigators then took the video to biologists with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife to also look at the video. The biologists said, 'it was clearly a human in a bear suit.'"

MAGA Indians Went All In on Trump. Many Right-Wingers Can’t Stand Them South Asians are a powerful, visible minority in the Trump administration. They’re also facing a racist backlash, fueled in part by the white nationalist Groyper movement.

As a desi, I’m fascinated by the Indians who caped hard for Trump. Many of them seem to have felt insulated by their wealth and success—the “model minority”—only to now realize that a lot of MAGA hates them. @ashwinrodrigues.com reports: www.wired.com/story/maga-i...
