Over 3/4 of January 2021 so far has been above average with 40% of days well above average. Also included is what to expect to end the month.

January 2021 has been warmer than average so far
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
Western Wisconsin's January has been very warm, so let's look at how each day's average temperature (high temp averaged together with the low temp) compared to the climatological average for that day. Very noticeable is the amount of red/pink days.
The red boxes mean days that were at least 10 degrees above average and the pinks signify 4 to 9 degrees above average. Temps within 3 degrees on either side of average are white.
There are only two days so far this month that have been in the 4 to 9 degree below average light blue category and none that were 10 degrees or more below.
In fact, 10 of the 25 days up to and not including today were at least 10 degrees above and 9 more were at least 4 degrees above average, meaning 19 of the 25 days, or 76%, were warmer than average. Four days were close to average and only 2 days were below average.
Today has been fairly close to average, but cannot be included until the day is complete at midnight. Low temperatures this morning were above Eau Claire's average high of 5 degrees. Specifically, Eau Claire started the day 7 degrees above average. The low temp isn't official yet as tonight is expected to be colder than last night. It's possible to have temperatures in the single digits by midnight tonight as they fall towards 0 overnight.
Highs today were only a couple degrees below Eau Claire's average high of 24. The next couple of afternoons will be colder than that average with highs only in the mid to upper teens. The wind chill factor will decrease overnight as the wind becomes light, but again actual air temps will get cold. Tonight's lows will depend on the cloud cover.
While we started out fairly clear at sunset, clouds will increase overnight. Clouds will be thinner to the north, so temperatures there could drop below zero. Tomorrow's morning clouds again clear to at least partly cloudy by the afternoon. Many spots will be mostly sunny. With clear sky lasting through most of tomorrow night, lows even for Eau Claire are expected to drop just below zero.
Temperatures climb back above average Friday and highs will top out near 30 both Saturday and Sunday, though highs will depend greatly on where a front sets up, and that front is expected to divide Wisconsin and bring chances for wintry mix and/or snow.
Saturday's chances shifted a bit further south and look light and scattered while Sunday looks to have a better chance for light snow, but just like last night's system this one also has a chance to miss the Chippewa Valley to the south and southeast.

Doc takes 'liberating' turn at center stage

WASHINGTON (AP) — After surviving nearly a year of darts and undermining comments from former President Donald Trump, Dr. Anthony Fauci is back. He now speaks with the authority of the White House again. The doctor called it “liberating” Thursday to be backed by a science-friendly administration that has embraced his recommendations to battle COVID-19. And Fauci made clear that he believes the new administration will not trade in the mixed messages that so often came from the Trump White House, where scientific fact was often obscured by the president’s political agenda.

Most major US airlines ban guns in luggage for DC flights

Airlines say they are stepping up security on flights to Washington before next week’s inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden. Delta, United, Alaska and American airlines said Thursday they will bar passengers flying to Washington from putting guns in checked bags. Other airlines announced more modest steps. American Airlines will stop serving alcohol on flights to and from the Washington area — a policy it imposed temporarily after the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump. Meanwhile, key lawmakers and the head of the nation’s largest union of flight attendants are asking that anyone arrested in connection with the riot be put on the government’s no-fly list.

Study: In pandemic era, older adults isolated but resilient
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
An ongoing study suggests that older American adults are showing resilience and perseverance despite struggles with loneliness and isolation during the pandemic. That’s according to the National Social Life, Health and Aging Project, conducted by the social research organization NORC at the University of Chicago. It’s part of a longer-term study designed to track the physical and emotional well-being of a group of older Americans over time. Only 9% of older adults reported having “fair or poor overall mental health” during the pandemic. Nevertheless, the study found that general happiness has declined and an increasing number report occasional feelings of depression or isolation.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United Nations chief says “there are reasons to hope” for progress toward ending the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict after years of inaction. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Thursday the United Nations will explore all initiatives to facilitate “a true peace process” based on the two-state solution. Clearly referring to former U.S. president Donald Trump’s administration, he said “we were completely locked down in a situation in which there was no progress visible.” He made clear that the Biden administation’s restoration of relations with the Palestinians opened the possibility of meetings of the Quartet of Middle East mediators that were previously blocked.

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Iranian Ayatollah Mohammad Taqi Mesbah Yazdi, a prominent hard-liner and supporter of the country’s ex-president, has died at the age of 85. The state-run IRNA news agency said he died on Friday. He had recently been in hospital for a month due to an unspecified gastrointestinal illness but was then released to continue treatment at home in the Iranian holy city of Qom, home to major Shiite seminaries. He took a turn for the worse a few days ago and was transferred to a hospital in the capital, Tehran. The cleric was known as a backer of former hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who questioned the Holocaust.

WASHINGTON (AP) — America’s new top diplomat has taken the helm of the State Department with a vow to rebuild the ranks of the foreign service and rely on its expertise as the Biden administration tries to restore U.S. global standing. On his first full day in the job Wednesday, Antony Blinken told employees he values their work and commitment. Blinken also said the world is watching how America pursues foreign policy after four years of former President Donald Trump’s “America First” doctrine. President Joe Biden has vowed to reverse that approach, which alienated many U.S. allies. Blinken says the State Department will again play a leading role in America’s relations with the world.

85-year-old fan's streak of Packers playoff games will go on

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) -- An 85-year-old Green Bay Packers fan who has never missed a playoff game at Lambeau Field thought her streak was coming to an end this week until two charitable brothers heard her story.
Fritzie Neitzel went to her first Packers game with her father in October 1945, when she was 10. As longtime season ticket holders, her family unsuccessfully tried buying seats for the NFC championship game once they went on sale. That's when the Spirit of Wisconsin Booster Club, a charity led by Steve and Neal Ewing, heard Neitzel's story and gifted her tickets to the game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Because of COVID-19 restrictions, the Packers said all tickets on cellphones are nontransferable. So Steve Ewing drove from Milwaukee to Green Bay to hand off the phone with the tickets.

The U.S. Coast Guard has suspended its search for a boat with about 20 people on board that was three days overdue to arrive in Florida after leaving the Bahamas. Officials say the Coast Guard and others searched more than 17,000 square miles for about 84 hours before suspending the search around noon on Friday. Officials have not released information about who was on the 29-foot Mako Cuddy Cabin vessel. It left Bimini, Bahamas, on Monday and was supposed to arrive in Lake Worth, Florida, on Tuesday.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — Business owners hailed Gov. Gavin Newsom’s decision to lift stay-at-home orders across California in response to improving coronavirus conditions. But local health officials expressed concern that it could reverse the recent sharp drop in cases and hospitalizations. The turnaround comes after a month after some hospitals were drawing up plans for rationing care and as ICU capacity still sits at 0% in the vast Southern California region. The order’s end allows churches and restaurants to open for outdoor services and other businesses to reopen as early as this week.

The city of Detroit will dismiss most misdemeanor citations issued last spring during several days of protests against police brutality following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Most of the tickets written May 31 and June 2 were for curfew violations as hundreds of people demonstrated in downtown Detroit. Detroit Corporation Counsel Lawrence Garcia says Tuesday that the city expects to dismiss 238 of the 245 tickets issued on those three days. Dozens of demonstrators violated Detroit’s curfew requiring people to be off city streets after 8 p.m. and received appearance citations. Others were ticketed for disruptive or violent behavior. In addition to those in Detroit, charges that stemmed from demonstrations in some other U.S. cities also have been dismissed.

NEW YORK (AP) — A lawyers’ group has filed an ethics complaint against Rudy Giuliani with New York’s courts. They’re calling for him to be investigated and his law license suspended over his work promoting former President Donald Trump’s false allegations over the 2020 election. Lawyers Defending American Democracy, which includes former judges and federal attorneys among its members, sent the complaint on Wednesday to the Attorney Grievance Committee of the state’s court system saying Giuliani had violated the rules of professional conduct. An investigation would be the first step in a process that could lead to a disbarment. An email seeking comment was sent to Giuliani’s representative.

TORONTO (AP) — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says his officials have been in frequent contact with U.S. President-elect Joe Biden’s incoming administration making the case for a long disputed oil pipeline that reports say Biden will cancel on his first day in office. Trudeau says that over the last several days, including Tuesday, his officials have communicated arguments in favor of the Keystone XL pipeline to the highest levels of his administration. A few Canadian media outlets reported Sunday that Biden plans to scrap the pipeline immediately upon taking office.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has released a video condemning the violent insurrection he fomented at the Capitol last week.
The video came out Wednesday after he was impeached by the House for a record second time, this time with Republican votes. Trump also called on his supporters to remain peaceful amid concerns about additional violence in the days before President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration.
Trump says: “I want to be very clear: I unequivocally condemn the violence that we saw last week.” He says, “Like all of you I was shocked and deeply saddened by the calamity” and “no true supporter” of his “could ever endorse political violence.”
Trump also said that he had directed federal agencies “to use all necessary resources to maintain order in Washington, D.C.” over the next week.”
Trump made no reference to becoming the first president in the nation’s history to be impeached twice.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Newly released police video shows that an Illinois teen accused of killing two people during unrest in Wisconsin and his mom were fixated on social media comments about them in the hours after his August arrest. The Chicago Tribune reports that police in Antioch, Illinois, on Monday released four hours of video taken after Kyle Rittenhouse turned himself in hours after the Aug. 25 protest in Kenosha. After Rittenhouse said he wanted a lawyer, police left him in the interrogation room with his mother. Wendy Rittenhouse spent the next several hours scrolling through her phone. At one point she lamented about people posting derogatory remarks about them on Facebook.

Trump vetoes Calif. fishing bill over seafood trade deficit

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has vetoed a bill that would have gradually ended the use of large-mesh drift gillnets used exclusively in federal waters off the coast of California. Trump says the bill would have increased reliance on imported seafood and worsened a multibillion-dollar seafood trade deficit. He also says the bill will not “achieve its purported conservation benefits.” The bill was sponsored by California Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein and Republican West Virginia Sen. Shelley Moore Capito. Trump vetoed the fishing bill Friday as the Republican-controlled Senate followed the Democratic-led House and voted to overturn his earlier veto of the annual defense policy bill.

The only stars at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am this year will be the players. The spike in COVID-19 cases in California led organizers to cancel the pro-am portion of a tournament. Pebble has a long history of entertainers and celebrities mixing with the pros on one of the most picturesque courses in the country. That means no antics from Bill Murray. Justin Timberlake won’t be breaking out into song while waiting on a tee box. Pebble already announced no fans. The 156 pros will play only two courses, Pebble Beach and Spyglass Hill.

Capitol attack stirs memories of Oklahoma bombing

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The attack on the U.S. Capitol by an angry mob of President Donald Trump’s supporters shocked many Americans who thought such a violent assault by their fellow countrymen wasn’t possible. But for Oklahoma City bombing survivor Dennis Purifoy, the Capitol assault was a clear parallel to what happened at the federal building in his hometown more than 25 years ago. The same anti-government anger motivated Timothy McVeigh, whose truck bomb ripped apart a federal building in 1995 and killed 168 people. While people around the globe expressed outrage at the Capitol insurrection, the feelings are particularly intense for some in Oklahoma, which witnessed firsthand the deadly repercussions of violent anti-government extremism.

CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Bears have backed into the playoffs, but they have some health concerns heading into next weekend’s matchup with Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints. Linebacker Roquan Smith and wide receiver Darnell Mooney left Chicago’s 35-16 loss to Green Bay with injuries. Smith, Chicago’s leading tackler, departed late in the first quarter with an elbow injury. Mooney, who set career highs with 11 receptions for 93 yards, hurt an ankle early in the fourth. The Bears finished at 8-8 but made the playoffs anyway after the Arizona Cardinals lost.

DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Syria’s state media says Israeli warplanes have fired several missiles on targets in central Syria, killing a family of four. State-news agency SANA quoted an unnamed military official as saying Friday’s attack took place shortly before dawn, when Israeli warplanes flew over neighboring Lebanon. Israel has launched hundreds of strikes against Iran-linked military targets in Syria over the years but rarely acknowledges or discusses such operations. Israel views Iranian entrenchment on its northern frontier as a red line, and it has repeatedly struck Iran-linked facilities and weapons convoys destined for Lebanon’s militant Hezbollah group.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Tamara Lawrance is a busy young British actor. In the first few years of her career, she played a fictional girlfriend to Prince Harry in the 2017 TV movie “King Charles III,” and was in an episode of filmmaker Steve McQueen’s 2020 “Small Axe” anthology. Glowing reviews met each performance, as they have for the three-part miniseries called “The Long Song,” airing Sunday on PBS. The drama is set in the final days of slavery in 19th-century Jamaica and stars Lawrance as July, from her early years working in a plantation owner’s house to liberated later life.

Palestinians say Israeli gunshot in the neck paralyzed man

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — The Palestinian Health Ministry says that a youth is suffering from paralysis a day after he was shot in the neck by Israeli forces in the occupied West Bank. The ministry said Saturday that the 24-year-old man, Haron Abu Aram, was left quadriplegic. Witnesses said the incident was triggered when Israeli forces tried to stop Palestinians building a house in a village in southern Hebron. Video showed a group of Palestinians confronting the Israeli soldiers before a gunshot is heard and the young man appears on the ground. The Israeli military said its soldiers were attacked with rocks while evacuating an “illegal building.” Israel prevents Palestinians from building houses on areas under its control in the West Bank without hard-to-obtain building permits.

TOKYO (AP) — Tokyo is reporting a daily record of 1,591 coronavirus cases as the national government prepares to declare a state of emergency this week to cope with a new wave of infections. Those needing critical care in the capital also reached a record 113 people, according to the metropolitan government. Toshio Nakagawa, head of the Japan Medical Association, called the situation extremely serious but stopped short of criticizing Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga for acting too slow to contain the latest outbreak, as some have suggested. China’s Hebei is enforcing stricter control measures following a further rise in cases. And Thailand is planning to expand testing to thousands of factories in a province next to Bangkok as it reported 365 new cases and one new death.

Blodgett is the acting House sergeant at arms. And he says Capitol Police officers will be stationed at Washington-area airports and the city’s Union Station train depot on busy travel days. Blodgett says he’s set up an online portal so lawmakers can notify the agency about travel plans. He also wants them to coordinate trips with local police and airport officials and report suspicious activity.

The mild, dry winter rolls into February
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
This week has started quiet and cool with temperatures near average. The winter has been warmer and drier than the norm and it looks like we'll just keep rolling that into February.
Tuesday will be a carbon copy of Monday with a mix of sun and clouds. Temperatures will coast near average in the low to mid 20s. Wind chills will be in the teens as north winds swing by at 8 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph.
High pressure starts to fall our of Canada and bring us a bit chillier temps for Wednesday and Thursday. Depending on cloud cover, we will aim for near 0 lows to start Wednesday and high temperatures will only rebound into the teens.
It's basically the same story for Thursday, but put overnight lows in the negatives and add more sunshine throughout the day. High temperatures will top out in the upper teens again.
That high pressure will act as a block for the next few systems that run across the U-S this week. It isn't until late Friday that we'll see a chance for some light snow to turn over to a wintry mix Saturday.
The temperature outlook for February suggest temperatures will be above average. High temperature average go from the mid 20s to low 30s throughout the month which means our climb out of deep winter has begun.
The precipitation outlook into February also looks a bit more active and it suggest we will be seeing more precipitation than the average throughout the first week of the month.

$10,000 bond set for Wisconsin pharmacist accused of intentionally spoiling COVID-19 vaccines
| null | null |

GRAFTON, Wis. (WAOW) — The Wisconsin pharmacist accused of intentionally spoiling 570 doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, now identified as Steven Brandenburg, appeared in court today.
According to the Associated Press, Ozaukee County District attorney Adam Gerolin claims Brandenburg told police he tried to ruin the vaccine because he felt the medicine wasn't safe.
A $10,000 signature bond was set.
Brandenburg was arrested on December 31 on suspicion of reckless endangerment, adulterating a prescription drug and criminal damage to property.
Now, prosecutors say they don't know for sure if the vaccines were truly destroyed, and that more testing needs to be done to determine that they were destroyed by Brandenburg's actions.
This forces the prosecution to drop the reckless endangerment charge, a felony, and replace it with attempted criminal damage to property.
Brandenburg is not to work in a health care facility, leave the state, possess or use a firearm, or have contact with any co-workers.

QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistan’s minority Shiites were rallying for the straight fourth day on the outskirts of southwestern of Quetta to protest the weekend killing of 11 coal miners by the Islamic State group. They said Wednesday they will bury the dead only when the prime minister Imran Khan personally visits them to assure protection. Residents and relatives of the slain miners, who were members of the minority Shiite Hazara community, began the protest Sunday after IS militants abducted and killed them in Baluchistan province. The Sunni militant group has repeatedly targeted Pakistan’s minority Shiites in recent years. IS claimed responsibility quickly after the abduction of the miners.

The U.S. Treasury and IRS have sent out the bulk of the second economic impact payments, which are intended to provide some relief to Americans. However, frustration is high among millions of people who did not receive payments yet and must wait for the mail or file their taxes before they receive it. The payments, worth $600 per eligible adult and dependent, are being distributed by direct deposit, paper checks and debit cards. Those who did not receive a payment or received the wrong amount must file their 2020 taxes to get it.

HOUSTON (AP) — A judge has dismissed a theft charge against a Houston area health department doctor who had been accused by prosecutors of stealing nine doses of coronavirus vaccine from a damaged vial and administering them to family and friends. Authorities had alleged that Hasan Gokal, who worked for Harris County Public Health, stole a vial of the Moderna coronavirus vaccine while working at a vaccination site at a suburban Houston park on Dec. 29. But County Court-At-Law Judge Franklin Bynum on Monday found there was no probable cause to charge Gokal with theft. Paul Doyle, an attorney for Gokal, said his client’s name was disparaged and he was fired without cause. Prosecutors did not have immediate comment on the dismissal.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden arrived at the White House ready to wield his pen to dismantle Donald Trump’s legacy and begin pushing his own priorities. The new president has already signed dozens of executive orders targeting foundational policies of the last administration. Biden’s goals include reversing Trump’s ban on travelers from several predominantly Muslim countries, calling on the U.S. to rejoin the Paris climate accord and stopping construction of Trump’s border wall. Both Trump and former President Barack Obama relied on executive orders and other presidential directives to get some of their most controversial policies around a deadlocked Congress. But the governing tool often comes with fleeting impact.

MOSCOW (AP) — The nationalist politician who has won a landslide victory in Kyrgyzstan’s presidential election says he will push for quick constitutional changes to strengthen the powers of the presidency. Sadyr Zhaparov, who won 79% of Sunday’s vote just over three months after being freed from jail by throngs of stick-wielding protesters, also pledged to maintain close ties with the country’s main sponsor and ally, Russia. Zhaparov was serving a prison sentence on charges of abducting a regional governor amid a dispute over a gold mine. He was freed by demonstrators who contested the results of October’s parliamentary election.

But now the former deputy public defender is under fire for the deaths of two pedestrians on New Year’s Eve who were run down in an intersection by a 45-year-old parolee. The San Francisco police union says a plea agreement for a robbery set Troy McAlister free on parole in April and that Boudin’s office failed to prosecute his multiple arrests since then. McAlister pleaded not guilty to manslaughter charges Tuesday. The deaths have fueled criticism in a city plagued by rampant drug dealing and a surge in break-ins.

ATLANTA (AP) — The Hammer made one last trip to the spot where he hit No. 715. Hank Aaron’s funeral service in Atlanta featured two former presidents and baseball’s longtime commissioner. Afterward, the hearse detoured on its way to the cemetery to swing through the site of the old Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. That’s where Aaron broke one of America’s most iconic records when he passed Babe Ruth on April 8, 1974. The stadium is long gone, but a modest marker remains in what is now a parking lot. The police-escorted procession passed through the lot on its way to historic South-View Cemetery.

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Jungle Cruise is one of the original Disney parks’ rides and it’s getting a 21st century remodel. It’s the latest update to a legacy theme park ride that has been criticized in years past for being racially insensitive. Disney said in a blog post on Monday that the ride will be updated by Disney “imagineers” at the Disneyland park in California and the Magic Kingdom park in Florida with a new storyline and characters that “reflect and value the diversity of the world around us.” The ride had been criticized for its depiction of animatronic indigenous people as savages or headhunters.

TOKYO (AP) — The postponed Tokyo Olympics are to open in six months on July 23. Tokyo organizers have no public program planned to mark the milestone. There is too much uncertainty for that right now. Tokyo and other parts of Japan are under an emergency order because of surging coronavirus cases with about 4,500 deaths attributed to COVID-19. Organizers say the games will go on with firm plans and tactics likely to come in late March.

Capitol Police rejected offers of federal help to quell mob

WASHINGTON (AP) — Three days before supporters of President Donald Trump rioted at the Capitol, the Pentagon asked the U.S Capitol Police if it needed National Guard manpower. And as the mob descended on the building Wednesday, Justice Department leaders reached out to offer up FBI agents. The police turned them down both times, according to senior defense officials and two people familiar with the matter. They told The Associated Press that the Capitol Police had planned for a free speech demonstration and didn’t need more help. But the Capitol ended up being overrun. The failure also raised questions about the treatment of mainly white Trump supporters, compared with the Black and brown protesters across the country who demonstrated last year over police brutality.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense leaders say they are reviewing current restrictions on the use of force by National Guard members and could allow troops to carry batons or guns in Washington, D.C., as they brace for more protests and possible violence leading up to and during the Jan. 20 inaugural. Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy tells The Associated Press that any changes will be determined by the intelligence gathered in the coming days about the evolving threats. But he said they are looking at allowing troops to carry their M-4 rifles or 9 mm Berettas, and he will know more in a day or two.

No Mardi Gras parades, so thousands make 'house floats'

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — You just can’t keep a good city down, especially when Mardi Gras is coming. All around New Orleans, thousands of houses are being decorated as floats because the coronavirus outbreak canceled the elaborate parades mobbed by crowds during the Carnival season and on Fat Tuesday. Some smaller groups announced no-parade plans before the city did. But the “house float” movement started almost as soon as a New Orleans spokesman announced in November that parades were off for the season. Megan Joy Boudreaux says it started as a joke on Twitter, but she began to like the idea and started a Facebook group called the Krewe of House Floats.

BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi security forces say one of their explosives-handling teams is working to neutralize a “large” mine discovered on an oil tanker in the Persian Gulf and evacuate its crew. The mine had been attached to a tanker chartered by Iraq’s Oil Marketing Company SOMO that was refueling another vessel. The statement on Friday was issued by Iraq’s Security Media Cell, which is affiliated with the country’s security forces. It’s the first official Iraqi confirmation that a mine was discovered on an Iraqi tanker transferring fuel in the Persian Gulf to another vessel. It did not identify the vessels or provide more details.

It’s a Twitter user’s worst nightmare: Wake up to find most of your followers gone. But that’s exactly what will happen on Wednesday to the official presidential accounts on Twitter — accounts such as @POTUS, @WhiteHouse, @FLOTUS and @VP. These institutional accounts, which are reserved for official government use by those in the current administration, will be transferred to President-elect Joe Biden once he is officially inaugurated on Wednesday. But unlike in the previous Twitter transition, when then-President Barack Obama’s official accounts were transferred to Trump, Biden’s team will not retain the followers of the official accounts when it takes over @POTUS.

ATLANTA (AP) — The top federal prosecutor in Atlanta has left his position. Byung J. “BJay” Pak’s resignation Monday came a day after an audio recording was made public in which President Donald Trump called him a “never-Trumper.” Pak was sworn in as U.S. attorney in the Atlanta-based Northern District of Georgia in October 2017 after having been appointed by Trump. Pak was a former Republican state lawmaker who had previously served as an assistant U.S. attorney from 2002 to 2008 and was working in private practice at the time of his appointment.

Tunis, TUNISIA (AP) — The powerful interior minister of Libya’s U.N.-backed government, seen as a contender for the post of prime minister, says he hopes that bringing stability to his war-torn country will become a top priority for the Biden administration. Fathi Bashagha also told The Associated Press that the forces backing the government in the capital, Tripoli, would soon launch a major operation with Turkish assistance in western Libya to finish off militants and target human smugglers in that part of the country. Libya is split between the U.N.-supported government based in the capital, Tripoli, and rival authorities based in the country’s east.

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — A California congressman contracted the coronavirus before he could get a second dose of vaccine that would have improved his immunity. Democratic Rep. Lou Correa announced Saturday he tested positive upon returning home from Washington, D.C., prompting him to self-quarantine away from his family. His office said he received the first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Dec. 19 and has not received the second shot that would have boosted his immunity to about 95%. Correa is the latest House member to report testing positive since dozens of lawmakers huddled together for protection during the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol

The Week 17 scoring bonanza provided the perfect finish to a record-setting season on offense. Teams combined for 100 touchdowns in the final week of the season for the second-most in NFL history in a single week, behind only the 104 scored in Week 14 of the 2013 season. That helped finish off the highest-scoring season in NFL history with the 24.8 point per game average topping the previous mark of 23.4 in 2013 and the AFL record of 24.5 in 1961.

BERLIN (AP) — Austrian authorities have stopped a man at Vienna airport as he tried to smuggle 74 protected chameleons from Africa into the country. They said in a statement a 56-year-old man, who was not further identified, had hidden the animals in socks and empty ice-cream boxes when he was caught at customs control in Vienna. He had traveled to Austria from Tanzania via Ethiopia. The chameleons were taken to the Austrian capital’s Schoenbrunn Zoo, which said that three of the animals did not survive. All the animals were from the Usambara Mountains in Tanzania and ranged in age from 1 week old to adult animals.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — A federal judge has ordered a Florida company accused of selling counterfeit N95 face masks with 3M’s name on them to stop using the Minnesota company’s trademarks and representing itself as a distributor or authorized retailer for 3M. Maplewood-based 3M sued Nationwide Source Inc. in late December. The complaint accused the company of selling more than 10,000 of the counterfeit respirators to Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis. The hospital allegedly paid more than six times above 3M’s standard price for the mask used by medical workers and others to protect against the coronavirus. The Star Tribune reports that U. S. District Judge Wilhelmina M. Wright on Friday granted 3M’s request for a preliminary injunction.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.

MorseLife operates a nursing home in West Palm Beach. One of its board members, Bill Mack, is also chairman of the country club’s foundation. Tax records show the foundation has donated at least $75,000 to MorseLife since 2016. Mack has denied wrongdoing. MorseLife did not return a call seeking comment.

HONG KONG (AP) — Hong Kong’s outgoing top judge says calls for reform of the city’s judiciary cannot be based on dissatisfaction with court rulings, as pro-Beijing figures and state-owned media step up criticism of the city’s legal system. Chief Justice Geoffrey Ma says that calls for reform based on results that one does not like aren’t acceptable. Chinese officials and state-owned media have in recent weeks accused the semi-autonomous city’s courts of misinterpreting Hong Kong’s mini-constitution in judgments relating to pro-democracy protests last year. Hong Kong’s freedoms have come under pressure as Beijing has asserted more control over the city.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — All-Pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald is expected to play for the Rams on Saturday in Green Bay after injuring his ribs in Los Angeles’ playoff victory at Seattle. Rams coach Sean McVay also says quarterback John Wolford and receiver Cooper Kupp are likely to be available for Los Angeles against the Packers despite getting hurt against the Seahawks. McVay said he doesn’t expect to name a starting quarterback for the Rams’ showdown with the top-seeded Packers. Wolford’s scary injury turned out to be a stinger and he returned to the stadium for the postgame celebration.

Dr. Anthony Fauci says the U.S. ramped up COVID-19 vaccinations in the past few days after a slower-than-expected start, bringing to 4 million the number of Americans who have received shots. The government’s top infectious-disease expert also said on ABC’s “This Week” that President-elect Joe Biden’s pledge to administer 100 million shots of the coronavirus vaccine within his first 100 days in office is achievable. And he rejected President Donald Trump’s false claim on Twitter that coronavirus deaths and cases in the U.S. have been greatly exaggerated.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is heard on tape pleading with Georgia’s election chief to overturn Joe Biden’s win in the state, suggesting in a telephone call that the official “find” enough votes to hand Trump the victory. The conversation was the latest step in an unprecedented effort by a sitting American president to reverse the outcome of a free and fair election that he lost. The Associated Press obtained a copy of a recording of Trump’s conversation with Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. Trump tells Raffensperger at one point that he wants him to “find” 11,780 votes for Trump. Georgia previously certified that Democratic President-elect Biden won the state by 11,779 votes.

Republicans grapple with post-Trump future

President Joe Biden’s inauguration represents a new high point for Democrats, who have assumed control of Congress and expelled Donald Trump from the White House. But for Republicans, this moment marks a painful shift to a new era of diminished power, deep uncertainty and dangerous intraparty divisions that some believe threaten the very survival of the Grand Old Party. At the heart of the Republican reckoning lies a fundamental question with no clear answer: Without Trump, what does the modern-day Republican Party stand for? Republicans have just begun to decide whether to continue down the road of Trump’s norm-shattering populism or return to the party’s conservative roots.

France's hopes lift as US freezes tariffs over tech tax

PARIS (AP) — France’s government breathed a sigh of relief Friday after the U.S. indefinitely delayed tariffs on French wine, cosmetics and other goods. The U.S. tariffs were meant to enter in force this week. They were designed as retaliation for a French tax on technology giants like Google and Amazon. The U.S. Trade Representative’s office said it suspended the tariffs because it is investigating similar tech taxes from a growing number of other countries, too. France’s finance minister called for a global agreement on taxing online giants instead. It’s among multiple trade disputes that have damaged trans-Atlantic ties in recent years.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins and veteran starting pitcher J.A. Happ have agreed to an $8 million, one-year contract, according to a person with knowledge of the deal. The person confirmed the agreement to The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced it. The 38-year-old Happ spent the past 2 1/2 seasons with the New York Yankees. Happ finished with a 2-2 record and 3.47 ERA in nine starts last year.

"MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Twins and veteran starting pitcher J.A. Happ have agreed to an $8 million, one-year contract, according to a person with knowledge of the deal. The person confirmed the agreement to The Associated Press, speaking on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced it. The 38-year-old Happ spent the past 2 1/2 seasons with the New York Yankees. Happ finished with a 2-2 record and 3.47 ERA in nine starts last year.",

Pelosi calls for using 25th Amendment on Trump

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says President Donald Trump should immediately be removed from office or Congress may proceed to impeach him.
Pelosi on Thursday joined those calling on the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to force Trump from office. It came a day after a violent mob of Trump supporters stormed the Capitol, forcing the building into lockdown. Trump called them “very special” people and said he loved them.
Yesterday, American democracy came under attack — but we refuse to be bullied into abandoning our duty to work #ForThePeople. https://t.co/6KoVAVbZh7 — Nancy Pelosi (@SpeakerPelosi) January 7, 2021
She said at the Capitol: “The president of the United States incited an armed insurrection against America.”
Pelosi says he could do further harm to the country: “Any day can be a horror show for America.”
Democrats and some Republicans want Trump removed before his term ends on Jan. 20 with Democrat Joe Biden’s inauguration.
The 25th Amendment allows for the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet to declare the president unfit for office. The vice president then becomes acting president.

CHICAGO (AP) — A freshman Republican congresswoman from downstate Illinois apologized Friday for knowingly quoting Adolf Hitler during a rally outside of the U.S. Capitol this week. Rep. Mary Miller, who was among the Republicans who tried to challenge the certification of certain Electoral College votes that went to incoming President Joe Biden, issued the apology in the face of calls for her to resign. Miller made the remark at a rally on Tuesday hosted by a conservative group. While discussing the need for her party to appeal to young people, Miller said: “Hitler was right on one thing. He said, ’Whoever has the youth has the future.’”

Puffin stuff: Herring rules could boost funny-looking bird

BATH, Maine (AP) — The commercial fishery for herring has suffered in recent years due to new restrictions, but those same rules could benefit puffins. Atlantic puffins are known for their colorful beaks and waddling walks. They were once nearly gone from Maine. It is the only U.S. state where they nest. Decades of conservation work have brought Maine’s population of the birds to about 1,300 pairs that nest on small islands off the coast. They are dependent on small fish to survive. The herring fishery is facing new restrictions to try to protect the fish’s population.

CHIPPEWA FALLS (WQOW) - The Chippewa Falls Area Unified School District announced all students can return to in-person learning as of Jan. 25.
In a press release sent to parents, district officials said all grade levels will return to the in-person four-day model, with Fridays used as days for teachers to catch-up on work.
However, this could change based on Chippewa County's COVID status/risk level.
As we've reported, elementary students have already begun in-person learning this week.

Below is a statement from Superintendent Jeff Holmes:
While I remain optimistic that we should be able to return to an in-person setting on the original starting date for the second semester and also remaining cognizant of the conditions in other areas of the U.S. that could potentially reach us, we need to remind everyone that our conditions could be negatively impacted in the days, weeks, and months ahead. My point is that this public health emergency remains fluid and subject to change on nearly a daily basis. We need for the Chippewa Falls area to remain diligent in helping us keep the doors open to in-person settings by utilizing mitigation measures that are appropriate in the community.

EXPLAINER: How Trump could be impeached again, but faster

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is coming out strongly in support of President Donald Trump’s removal from office after pro-Trump supporters violently breached and ransacked the Capitol. The riots came after Trump had egged them on at a rally near the White House. On Friday, Pelosi told fellow Democrats on a private conference call that “we must take action.” A congressional effort to impeach Trump would be unlikely to remove him from the White House, which he’ll leave on Jan. 20 when President-elect Joe Biden is sworn in. But it would still make him the first president in history to be impeached twice.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) — A Michigan judge has overruled state regulators who approved a key permit for a proposed open-pit mine in the Upper Peninsula. The decision is another delay for a project that has been debated for nearly two decades. The judge invalidated a wetlands permit granted in 2018 to Aquila Resources for its Back Forty gold and zinc mine. The ruling issued Monday says the company provided too little information on potential damage to wetlands near the Menominee River on the Michigan-Wisconsin line. The state agency that granted the permit now says it agrees with the judge.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — An effort to enact a hate crimes law in Arkansas is in jeopardy, despite a push by the state’s popular Republican governor and major corporations. The leader of the state Senate has predicted the measure proposed for the session that begins Monday won’t pass, and conservatives are working hard in the majority-GOP Legislature to defeat the bill. The obstacles threaten what supporters calls Arkansas’ best chance in years to end its distinction as one of a handful of states without a hate crimes law. Georgia in June became the latest to enact a bill, leaving Arkansas, South Carolina and Wyoming as the remaining outliers.

SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) — Bulgarian authorities say they have broken a ring printing high-quality forged banknotes and documents, including a promotional fake passport with the photo of actor Sylvester Stallone to impress prospective clients. Prosecutors on Friday charged four Bulgarians with being part of an organized crime group making and distributing fake Bulgarian documents and counterfeit U.S. dollar and euro banknotes. In a joint operation with Europol and the U.S. Secret Service, Bulgarian law enforcers raided 30 locations, prosecutors said in a statement. Six people were taken into custody after illegal printing presses and equipment for money and document printing were found, along with large amounts of counterfeit $100 and 50-euro notes.

CLIVE, Iowa (AP) — Officials say three people have died in a crash following a police chase in central Iowa that reached speeds of more than 100 mph. Police in the Des Moines suburb of Clive say the crash happened early Monday, after officers attempted to stop a stolen car suspected in an earlier theft case in nearby Urbandale. Police say the car refused to stop, sped away and launched into the air as it crossed railroad tracks — flipping several times and hitting a utility pole and creek bank. Police found five young males, several of who were ejected from the car. Police say three died from their injuries and two were taken to hospitals.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Marquette’s men’s basketball team wore black uniforms in support of a Black man shot in Kenosha, Wisconsin, by a police officer last summer after it was announced Tuesday no charges would be filed, and the NBA’s Milwaukee Bucks said they plan to continue pushing for policy changes in law enforcement. Jacob Blake, who is Black, was left paralyzed after being shot on Aug 23 by officer Rusten Sheskey, who is white. Kenosha County District Attorney Michael Graveley announced Tuesday that no charges would be filed because he couldn’t disprove Sheskey’s contention that he acted in self-defense out of fear that Blake would stab him.

HILL CITY, Minn. (AP) — Eight people were arrested in a protest to oppose construction of the Enbridge Energy Line 3 oil pipeline replacement in northern Minnesota. Authorities say more than 150 people gathered in Aitken County on Saturday to protest. They blocked a road in one area, then traveled on buses and cars to another area south of Hill City, where authorities say they interfered with construction workers. After ignoring orders to leave, seven people were booked into jail for trespassing on critical infrastructure, and one person was cited and released for failing to leave an unlawful assembly. Line 3 starts in Alberta, Canada, and clips a corner of North Dakota before crossing northern Minnesota en route to Enbridge’s terminal in Superior, Wisconsin.

'Fake' US leg band may get pigeon a reprieve in Australia

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — A pigeon that Australia declared a biosecurity risk may get a reprieve after a U.S. bird organization declared its identifying leg band is fake. The band suggested the bird found in a Melbourne backyard is a racing pigeon that had left Oregon, 8,000 miles away, two months earlier. Officials feared the U.S. bird could be a disease risk for Australian species and planned to kill it. But an official at the American Racing Pigeon Union says the leg band number belongs to a blue bar pigeon in the U.S. and not the bird in Australia. Deone Roberts says counterfeiting of bird bands is happening more and more. Acting Australian Prime Minister Michael McCormack says there would no mercy if the pigeon came from America.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The United Nations chief is calling for global rules to regulate powerful social media companies like Twitter and Facebook. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said Thursday he believes it shouldn’t be a company that has the power to decide whether then president Donald Trump’s Twitter account should be closed, as a questioner asked. Rather, he said, a “mechanism” should be created “in which there is a regulatory framework with rules that allow for that to be done in line with law.” Guterres stressed that people shouldn’t live in a world “where too much power is given to a reduced number of companies.”

GUATEMALA CITY (AP) — Relatives of migrants from Guatemala believe that at least 13 of the 19 charred corpses found in a northern Mexico border state could be their loved ones. If true, the killings could revive memories of the 2010 massacre of 72 migrants in the same northern border state of Tamaulipas. Ramiro Coronado told The Associated Press his nephew was with a group of 13 migrants who left the province of San Marcos and were travelling together, before family members lost contact with them on Thursday. On Saturday, authorities in Tamaulipas found 19 shot and burned bodies near a town across the Rio Grande from Texas.

Report: Speed compliance to save rare whales could be better

PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A report from the federal government says compliance with speed rules designed to protect rare whales has increased in recent years but could still be higher. The slow speed zones are implemented to protect North Atlantic right whales. They number about 360 and are vulnerable to collisions with ships. The National Marine Fisheries Service implemented seasonal, mandatory vessel speed rules in some areas along the East Coast in 2008 to try to help the whales. A report released by the service this week states that the level of mariner compliance with the speed rule increased to 81% in 2018-19.

Records: Trump allies behind rally that ignited Capitol riot

WASHINGTON (AP) — An Associated Press review of records finds that veterans of President Donald Trump’s failed campaign were key players in the Washington rally that spawned a deadly assault on the U.S. Capitol. The findings undercut claims that the Jan. 6 event was the brainchild of the president’s grassroots supporters. A pro-Trump nonprofit group called Women for America First hosted the “Save America Rally.” Paperwork filed to get an event permit from the National Park Service lists more than half a dozen people who just weeks earlier had been paid thousands of dollars by Trump’s campaign. Since the siege, several of them have scrambled to distance themselves from the rally.

GENEVA (AP) — The Biden administration is taking quick steps to keep the United States in the World Health Organization, part of his ambition to launch a full-throttle effort to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Just hours before Wednesday’s inauguration, the Biden-Harris transition team announced its plans to “take action” to halt a U.S. withdrawal begun under Trump and work with partners to reform WHO and support its response to the coronavirus outbreak. Here’s a look at the U.N. health agency and its handling of the pandemic.

NEW YORK (AP) — Stunning scenes of President Donald Trump’s supporters storming the U.S. Capitol played out in searing fashion on national television. The pictures were breathtaking: security officers with their guns drawn on the floor of the House of Representatives, rioters smashing windows at the Capitol and climbing in. Anchors and reporters were quick to question why law enforcement wasn’t prepared, given the rally that Trump had spoken at earlier in the day, and some were quick to assign blame on the president for inciting the action. Reporters huddled with politicians inside the Capitol seeking safety from the mob outside.

Knee injury ends Shelby Harris' breakout season in Denver
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Shelby Harris’ best and most eventful season came to an early end Thursday when the Denver Broncos placed the sixth-year defensive end on injured reserve with a knee injury.
The Broncos (5-10) activated tight end Jake Butt (hamstring) off IR for their finale against the Las Vegas Raiders (7-8) on Sunday.
In 11 games this season, Harris led all NFL defensive linemen with seven pass knockdowns. Since 2019, Harris leads all D-linemen with 16 passes defensed, five more than runner-up Carlos Dunlap with Cincinnati and Seattle.
He also had 32 tackles, 2½ sacks and a forced fumble.
Harris missed four games this year when he was battling the coronavirus that also infected members of his family.
Coach Vic Fangio said he wasn’t sure if Harris, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent after the season, will require knee surgery.
Harris was in Los Angeles for the Broncos’ game against the Chargers last week when he was awakened by word that his wife was in labor. He stayed for the game and the Broncos arranged for a private flight back to Denver. He left right after the Broncos’ 19-16 loss and got back hours before the team plane did.
“My wife and baby are good. It’s just crazy because I actually got to get home for the birth, and I cut the umbilical cord and everything, I pulled the baby out,” Harris said earlier this week. “It was just a real special moment. We named him — he’s a junior — Shelby Lamar Harris Jr.
“It’s just crazy. I truly want to thank the Broncos just for going over and beyond what they had to do to make sure I got back and was there for the birth. It really meant a lot to me and my family and we’ll forever be grateful.”
It’s not just the Broncos he appreciates.
“I ran into the locker room, instantly got undressed. I’d say that’s probably the quickest I’ve ever gotten changed. I was still sweating when we left,” Harris said. “It was really classy by Inglewood police and all the sheriffs out there because they gave us a police escort to the airport. I really just feel special because everybody went over and beyond what they really had to do.”

"ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Shelby Harris’ best and most eventful season came to an early end Thursday when the Denver Broncos placed the sixth-year defensive end on injured reserve with a knee injury.\nThe Broncos (5-10) activated tight end Jake Butt (hamstring) off IR for their finale against the Las Vegas Raiders (7-8) on Sunday.\nIn 11 games this season, Harris led all NFL defensive linemen with seven pass knockdowns. Since 2019, Harris leads all D-linemen with 16 passes defensed, five more than runner-up Carlos Dunlap with Cincinnati and Seattle.\nHe also had 32 tackles, 2½ sacks and a forced fumble.\nHarris missed four games this year when he was battling the coronavirus that also infected members of his family.\nCoach Vic Fangio said he wasn’t sure if Harris, who is set to become an unrestricted free agent after the season, will require knee surgery.\nHarris was in Los Angeles for the Broncos’ game against the Chargers last week when he was awakened by word that his wife was in labor. He stayed for the game and the Broncos arranged for a private flight back to Denver. He left right after the Broncos’ 19-16 loss and got back hours before the team plane did.\n“My wife and baby are good. It’s just crazy because I actually got to get home for the birth, and I cut the umbilical cord and everything, I pulled the baby out,” Harris said earlier this week. “It was just a real special moment. We named him — he’s a junior — Shelby Lamar Harris Jr.\n“It’s just crazy. I truly want to thank the Broncos just for going over and beyond what they had to do to make sure I got back and was there for the birth. It really meant a lot to me and my family and we’ll forever be grateful.”\nIt’s not just the Broncos he appreciates.\n“I ran into the locker room, instantly got undressed. I’d say that’s probably the quickest I’ve ever gotten changed. I was still sweating when we left,” Harris said. “It was really classy by Inglewood police and all the sheriffs out there because they gave us a police escort to the airport. I really just feel special because everybody went over and beyond what they really had to do.”\n___\nFollow Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton\n___\nMore AP NFL: https://apnews.com/NFL and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL",

The Latest: Clyburn says impeachment vote expected this week
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on President Donald Trump and impeachment (all times local):
10:10 a.m.
House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn says the House could vote this week to impeach President Donald Trump but delay sending the legislation to the Senate until after many of incoming President Joe Biden’s Cabinet secretaries are confirmed for their posts.
The South Carolina Democrat says “it may be Tuesday or Wednesday before action is taken, but I think it will be taken this week.”
Clyburn says he’s concerned that a Senate trial could distract from the process of confirming Biden’s nominees.
Mitch McConnell, the Senate’s Republican leader, has said an impeachment trial could begin as early as Jan. 20 – Inauguration Day.
Clyburn told CNN’s “State of the Union” that McConnell was trying to be “disruptive” but that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi will decide when to appoint impeachment managers and send the articles to the Senate.
Clyburn says an option would be to give Biden the “100 days he needs to get his agenda off and running, and maybe we’ll send the articles sometime after that.”
___
HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE IMPEACHMENT PUSH IN CONGRESS:
Democrats in Congress are laying plans to impeach President Donald Trump and ensure that an “unhinged” commander in chief — in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s words — can do no further damage in his remaining days in office. They are trying to send a message to the nation, and the world, that mob violence at the Capitol this past week that was inspired by the White House will not stand.

— Pope prays for dead in Capitol rioting, appeals for calm
___
HERE’S WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON:
9:40 a.m.
A second Republican senator has called for President Donald Trump to step down in the wake of the Capitol rioting this past week.
This time it’s Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania. He’s calling on Trump to resign for what Toomey says would be the good of the country after the Capitol riot that was carried out by supporters of the president.
Toomey says resignation is the “best path forward, the best way to get this person in the rear view mirror for us.” But Toomey says he’s not optimistic that Trump will step down before his term ends on Jan. 20.
Toomey also says that Trump’s role in encouraging the riot is an “impeachable offense.”
Toomey is the second GOP senator to call for Trump to step down, joining Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska.
Trump supporters who were angry over his loss to Democratic President-elect Joe Biden stormed the Capitol on Wednesday. Five people were killed.
Toomey was interviewed Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” and NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
___
12:15 a.m.
President Donald Trump is facing growing Democratic momentum to impeach him a second time.
And a top Republican, Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania, says he thinks Trump’s role in encouraging a deadly riot at the Capitol is an “impeachable offense.”
But Toomey is stopping short of saying he’d vote to remove Trump from office.
A Democratic congressman, David Cicciline of Rhode Island, says an impeachment proposal already has 185 co-sponsors. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is telling Democratic colleagues to be prepared to return to Washington this coming week.
Pelosi says Trump should be held accountable but she hasn’t committed to an impeachment vote.

Democrats start reining in expectations for immigration bill
| null | null |

WASHINGTON (AP) — New President Joe Biden unveiled a bold immigration plan just days ago. And Democrats are already acknowledging that if anything emerges, it will likely be significantly more modest. Immigration is so politically flammable that it’s resisted major congressional action since the 1980s, and this time seems no different. Biden wants to make citizenship available for the estimated 11 million immigrants in the U.S. illegally and ease other restrictions. But even supporters like No. 2 Senate Democratic leader Dick Durbin of Illinois say the party may have to settle for less, such as helping young Dreamer immigrants become citizens.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — President-elect Joe Biden says President Donald Trump isn’t “fit for the job,” but he repeatedly refused to endorse growing Democratic calls that he be impeached for a second time. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a letter to members of her chamber that lawmakers could move as early as next week to impeach Trump for inciting a violent mob that overran the U.S. Capitol if the president didn’t “immediately” resign. Biden said that if there were six months remaining in Trump’s term, “we should be doing whatever it took” to force him from office. But Biden says he’s now focused on taking office himself.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — A Chinese lawyer who represented a Hong Kong pro-democracy activist has been stripped of his license amid efforts by Beijing to crush opposition to its tighter control over the territory. Lu Siwei, who represented one of 12 Hong Kong activists who tried to flee to Taiwan, had his license revoked in a formal notice given Friday. Ten of the 12 activists caught at sea in August were sentenced by a Shenzhen court in December to prison terms ranging from seven months to three years for illegally crossing the border and organizing illegal border crossings” They are part of an exodus of Hong Kong residents following Beijing’s imposition of a tough new security law they say is destroying the territory’s Western-style civil liberties.

NAYPYITAW, Myanmar (AP) — Myanmar’s election commission has rejected allegations by the military that fraud played a significant role in determining the outcome of November’s elections, which delivered a landslide victory to Aung San Suu Kyi’s ruling party. The decision, announced Thursday, came amid heightened tensions after the military refused to rule out the possibility of a coup if their complaints were ignored. Aung San Suu Kyi’s National League for Democracy party captured 396 out of 476 seats in the November 8 polls, allowing them to form the government for another five years. The military has called for a review of the results. It says it has found numerous irregularities but the election commission says there’s no evidence to support these claims.
