At least 19 Myanmar police officers have crossed the border into India in the latest sign of growing dissent within the security forces and civil service officials who are opposed to the military coup. The first reported case of police fleeing the country came as one of the countryâs top diplomats resigned from his post at the United Nations after being promoted to the role of ambassador by the junta. Tin Maung Naing, the deputy envoy, refused to take over from Kyaw Moe Tun, the current ambassador, who was fired last week by the generals after he urged countries at the 193-member UN General Assembly to use âany means necessaryâ to reverse the coup that ousted the nationâs elected leader Aung San Suu Kyi. In Washington, Myanmarâs embassy also signalled a break with the military regime on Thursday, issuing a statement decrying the deaths of civilians protesting the coup and calling on authorities to âfully exercise [the] utmost restraint.â In Myanmarâs capital Naypyitaw last month, nine ministry of foreign affairs officials were arrested after they joined a Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) which aims to prevent the military from being able to govern the country by organising nationwide strikes. Thousands have joined the CDM, which was initially started by the medical profession, but has now picked up bankers, civil servants and small pockets of police officers.

Charles McQuillan/Getty ImagesAt least ten former staffers who worked for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are âqueuing upâ to cooperate with an investigation ordered by the queen into allegations that Meghan bullied her staff, it was claimed Thursday evening.The claim was made in the British newspaper the Mirror and is likely to be taken seriously as it was made by well-sourced royal reporter Russell Myers.Sources connected to the group, who have been assured of confidentiality as the investigation continues, said the staffers were considered to be âhugely professional and proud of their effortsâ while working at Kensington Palace.One source told The Mirror, âA group of people are queuing up to be involved. They have been silent for too long and there is much to talk about.âMeghan Markle Dismisses Bullying Allegations as Pre-Oprah âCalculated Smear CampaignâIt came after a report in the Daily Mail said that some alleged victims of workplace bullying by Meghan dub themselves the âSussex Survivors Clubâ and are believed to be suffering a form of post-traumatic stress.The paperâs royal reporter Rebecca English said that during a royal tour in Fiji, âI witnessed Meghan turn and âhissâ at a member of her entourage, clearly incandescent with rage about something, and demand to leave. I later saw that sameâfemaleâhighly distressed member of staff sitting in an official car, with tears running down her face. Our eyes met and she lowered hers, humiliation etched on her features.âA bombshell report in The London Times Tuesday said that Meghan systematically bullied members of the staff and that her head of communications, Jason Knauf, was so appalled by Meghanâs behavior that he put his concerns in writing to his superiors. That email was leaked to The Times.Buckingham Palace responded by ordering a full investigation into the bullying claims.Meghanâs camp has been keen to point out that the complaints raised by Knauf were dropped. However, the Mirrorâs source said, âThe complaint was considered and those members of staff were spoken to and given the option of taking it further. For whatever reason, they decided not to, possibly because they were still in their job and they were worried about the implications.âA source close to the Sussexes told the Mirror of the palace probe: âThe first we heard about this was via the pressâthis is a whole tit-for-tat scenario... itâs very hard to know what the process is. If this was a private company, weâve effectively already been fired and Iâm not entirely sure what any process could be.âA spokesperson for Meghan and Harry declined to comment to The Daily Beast.Read more at The Daily Beast.Get our top stories in your inbox every day.

A suspect charged in the deadly Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol building is speaking from jail in a new interview â and offering a unique defense positioning himself as simply a savior of baked goods. Jacob Chansley, the Capitol riot suspect who refers to himself as the "QAnon Shaman" and was photographed during the insurrection wearing fur and horns, spoke with 60 Minutes in an interview broadcast Thursday, in which he claimed his "actions were not an attack on this country" as he faces up to 20 years in prison for them. "I sang a song, and that's a part of shamanism," he said. "...I also stopped people from stealing and vandalizing that sacred space, the Senate, okay. I actually stopped somebody from stealing muffins out of the break room." Chansley neglected to mention the fact that, during the deadly insurrection, he allegedly left a threatening note for former Vice President Mike Pence warning, "It's only a matter of time, justice is coming." He was charged with "knowingly entering or remaining in" a restricted building and "violent entry and disorderly conduct," and prosecutors noted he carried around "a spear, approximately 6 feet in length," during the riot. Prosecutors have also said he "incited fellow Trump supporters rioting inside the Capitol building and disobeyed police orders," The Wall Street Journal reports. Despite this, Chansley, who said he regrets "entering that building," bemoaned the fact that former President Donald Trump never pardoned him or any of the other Capitol rioters, telling 60 Minutes this "wounded me so deeply" and "disappointed me so greatly." Still, Chansley added that even though he didn't get the pardon he wanted, he still doesn't regret his loyalty to Trump. The "QAnon Shaman" of the January 6th attack on the Capitol tells his story for the first time from jail, as he faces up to 20 years behind bars.
