STORY: Israel's parliament passed a new law that limits the conditions under which a sitting prime minister can be removed from office, despite objections from opponents that its intent is to shield Benjamin Netanyahu from any fallout of his ongoing corruption trials.And it's the newest wrinkle in the latest political crisis that has swept the Israeli government, driving thousands of protesters onto the streets for months.These are scenes from some of those protests on Thursday (March 23), declared a "Day of Shutdown" by its organizers, which include road blocks, clashes with police, arrests, and a massive Israeli flag hung on Jerusalem's city walls.Netanyahu's political coalition of religious conservatives and nationalists are planning to overhaul the country's judiciary system to protect against what it calls overreach by the Supreme Court and restore balance among the branches of government.The new legislation, passed 61-to-47, changes how the law defines a leader that has been "incapacitated" or otherwise unfit for office, physically or mentally. According to the Israel Democracy Institute, a think tank in Jerusalem, the previous wording of the law would have left the prime minister vulnerable to being labeled unfit by the attorney general, if the the attorney general deemed that Netanyahu was attempting to stop his three corruption cases.The new phrasing removes that scenario. The attorney general was appointed by the previous centrist government and has previously said Netanyahu had to stay out of the judicial overhaul plans due to conflict of interest.Netanyahu denies all charges against him and says the corruption trials are politically motivated.

Jean Morose Viliena, 50, was indicted on three counts of visa fraud, according to the U.S. attorney’s office in Boston. “Gaining lawful entry into our country is a privilege, not a right," U.S. Attorney Rachael Rollins said in a statement.
