LOS ANGLES (AP) — The California Department of Justice has opened a civil rights investigation to determine whether the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has engaged in a pattern or practice of unconstitutional policing. Attorney General Xavier Becerra announced Friday that the investigation of the nation’s largest sheriff’s department was prompted by allegations of excessive force, retaliation and other misconduct. The attorney general stressed that it is not a criminal investigation. Becerra is President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Critics: Bill discriminates against transgender students

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Critics of legislation that addresses gender in school sports say the proposal discriminates against transgender students in North Dakota. The bill would prohibit public schools from allowing a person to participate on a girls or boys team if the person “was assigned the opposite sex at birth.” Its sponsor, Republican Rep. Ben Koppelman, says the bill would ensure fair competition for girls in middle and high school sports. But, opponents say it excludes transgender students from athletics. The House Human Services Committee took no action on the bill Monday.

In Kashmir, empty grave for teenager killed by Indian forces

BELLOW, India (AP) — Indian forces who killed a 16-year-old and two other young men in Indian-controlled Kashmir last month described them as associates of terrorists. Instead of returning their bodies to their families, authorities buried them at a remote graveyard. Like them, scores of Kashmiris suspected of opposing Indian rule have been buried in unmarked graves under a new policy that denies families proper funerals. Authorities say it’s aimed at stopping the coronavirus, but rights activists say it’s an attempt by the government to avoid large funerals that fuel anger against India. India has long relied on military force to retain control over the portion of Kashmir it administers. Residents accuse troops of abuse of power with sweeping impunity under controversial laws.

KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) — A day after Uganda’s longtime leader was declared the winner of the country’s presidential election, the opposition party dismissed the results as “fraud” and called for the release of their leader, Bobi Wine, who has been under house arrest for several days. According to official results, President Yoweri Museveni won a sixth five-year term, extending his rule to four decades. Top opposition challenger Wine dismissed Museveni’s victory as “cooked-up, fraudulent results” while his party urged the government to release the challenger. The electoral commission said that Museveni received 58% of the vote to Wine’s 34%, with a voter turnout of 52%.

MADRID (AP) — The mayor of Madrid says that at least two people died Wednesday in a blast that an initial assessment linked to a gas leak. The explosion partially destroyed a building. A nearby nursing home was evacuated although no injuries have been reported among the residents. José Luis Martínez Almeida, who visited the site of the blast, told the local Telemadrid news channel that he couldn’t confirm how many people had been injured. He said that no serious damage had been initially registered in the nearby school.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — A senior campaign official tells The Associated Press that former White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders plans to run for Arkansas governor. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly. The official said Sanders plans to announce her candidacy Monday. The daughter of former Gov. Mike Huckabee, Sanders had been widely expected to run for the office after leaving the White House. She joins a GOP primary that includes Lt. Gov. Tim Griffin and Attorney General Leslie Rutledge. Current GOP Gov. Asa Hutchinson barred by term limits from seeking re-election next year.

Father and son build 'Little Free Sled Library" at Eau Claire hill

EAU CLAIRE (WQOW)- If you're looking to make the best of our wintry conditions and go sledding, but don't have a sled of your own, a family from the Eastside Hill neighborhood has you covered.
Chad and Owen Rowekamp recently built what they call a 'Little Free Sled Library' at Seven Bumps Hill next to Forest Hill Cemetery in Eau Claire. The two built a stand that holds several sleds for locals to borrow and return before they leave.
The two got the idea from a similar stand they saw in the Twin Cities, and decided to do the same as a father-son project to give the community a free and fun activity.
"If they don't have that much money and they want to go sledding, they don't have to spend the money on the sled to actually go sledding," Owen Rowekamp said.
"We're just a real community based and friendly neighborhood, we get to know our neighbors," Chad Rowekamp said. "It's just one more way to be a community."
The two say they plan to leave the stand up until the snow melts, and will continue to bring it back to the hill for years to come.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Mike Lindell, the businessman better known to the world as the MyPillow Guy, is weighing a run for governor in Minnesota. If he follows through on a campaign, it could be an early test of where the Republican Party is headed in the post-Donald Trump era. Lindell would bring a high profile to a race thanks to name recognition built on his ever-present TV ads. But he would also bring baggage, with his unflagging support for Trump that included parroting Trump’s false claims of a stolen election. Some Republican operatives in the state say Lindell’s activism has made it impossible for him to win a statewide election.

TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — Tunisian youth clashed with police overnight, maintaining their protests and riots over economic difficulties despite efforts by the president and prime minister to calm tensions. The prime minister said “Your voice is heard, and your anger is legitimate.” Hours later, dozens of people throwing projectiles and setting barricades on fire faced off with police firing tear gas. It’s the fifth straight night of protests that prompted Tunisia to deploy the army to try to keep order. The unrest has shaken the North African country just as it marks 10 years since an uprising over similar frustrations that ushered in a new democracy and unleashed the Arab Spring up risings.

Senator wants 'crime scene' evidence preserved
| null | null |
wqow.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the fallout of the storming of the Capitol by a mob of pro-Trump loyalists (all times local):
11:50 a.m.
The incoming chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee is calling the Capitol a “crime scene” with evidence that needs to be preserved.
Sen. Mark Warner has written 11 telecommunication and social media companies asking them to immediately preserve content and associated meta-data connected to the insurrectionist attack on the Capitol on Wednesday. Those companies include mobile carriers AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon and from the social media world — Apple, Facebook, Gab, Google, Parler, Signal, Telegram and Twitter.
Warner says the FBI and other law enforcement agencies investigating the events of that day are trying to piece together what happened when supporters of President Donald Trump rioted at the Capitol.
The Virginia Democrat tells the companies that “messaging data to and from your subscribers that may have participated in, or assisted, those engaged in this insurrection — and associated subscriber information — are critical evidence in helping to bring these rioters to justice.”
___
11:45 a.m.
Nearly 50 House members have signed on to a letter to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the House leadership seeking an independent commission to investigate the security failures in Wednesday’s riot at the Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump.
Democrats Barbara Lee and Jackie Speier and 45 of their colleagues say in a letter to Pelosi and the House Administration Committee that the violent siege at the Capitol was a “wake-up call.”
Only a few dozen officers from the U.S. Capitol Police were guarding the West front of the Capitol when they were rushed by thousands of pro-Trump rioters bent on breaking into the building.
People in the mob were armed with metal pipes, pepper spray and other weapons, and they pushed past the thin police line. One rioter hurled a fire extinguisher at an officer, according to video widely circulated on YouTube.
Rioters soon broke into the building, taking over the House and Senate chambers and running wild in Statuary Hall and other hallowed symbols of democracy. The mob ransacked the place, smashing windows and waving Trump, American and Confederate flags. The lawmakers who were voting to affirm President-elect Joe Biden’s victory were forced into hiding for hours.
___
HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE FALLOUT FROM THE RIOTING AT THE CAPITOL:
The rampage that has shocked the world and left the country on edge is prompting a hard look at the failure to stop supporters of President Donald Trump who rioted on Wednesday. And it’s leading to a broader reckoning over Trump’s tenure and his future and what comes next for a torn nation.

___
HERE’S WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON:
2:25 a.m.
Democrats in Congress are laying the groundwork to impeach President Donald Trump. Their goal is to ensure that a commander in chief they describe as “unhinged” can’t do further damage in his remaining days in office.
They’re trying to send a message to the nation, and the world, that mob violence inspired by a White House won’t stand after the shocking siege of the Capitol by Trump supporters left five dead.
Some Republicans are joining in the impeachment drive, saying Trump must go.
Articles of impeachment are expected to be introduced on Monday, with a House vote as soon as Wednesday. The soonest the Senate could begin an impeachment trial under the current calendar would be Jan. 20, Inauguration Day.
If Trump were to be impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate, he might be prevented from running for the presidency in 2024 or ever holding federal office again. He’d be the only president twice impeached.

The lawmakers who were voting to affirm President-elect Joe Biden’s victory were forced into hiding for hours.\n___\nHERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE FALLOUT FROM THE RIOTING AT THE CAPITOL:\nThe rampage that has shocked the world and left the country on edge is prompting a hard look at the failure to stop supporters of President Donald Trump who rioted on Wednesday. And it’s leading to a broader reckoning over Trump’s tenure and his future and what comes next for a torn nation.\nRead more:\n— ‘Brian did his job’: Family remembers fallen Capitol officer\n— Videos show fatal shooting during rampage at the Capitol\n— Deadly siege focuses attention on Capitol Police\n— Rioters who stormed US Capitol now face backlash at work\n— A farewell to @realDonaldTrump, gone after 57,000 tweets\n— ‘He’s on his own’: Some Republicans begin to flee from Trump\n___\nHERE’S WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON:\n2:25 a.m.\nDemocrats in Congress are laying the groundwork to impeach President Donald Trump. Their goal is to ensure that a commander in chief they describe as “unhinged” can’t do further damage in his remaining days in office.\nThey’re trying to send a message to the nation, and the world, that mob violence inspired by a White House won’t stand after the shocking siege of the Capitol by Trump supporters left five dead.\nSome Republicans are joining in the impeachment drive, saying Trump must go.\nArticles of impeachment are expected to be introduced on Monday, with a House vote as soon as Wednesday. The soonest the Senate could begin an impeachment trial under the current calendar would be Jan. 20, Inauguration Day.\nIf Trump were to be impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate, he might be prevented from running for the presidency in 2024 or ever holding federal office again. He’d be the only president twice impeached.",

Looking at the year as a whole, it was slightly warmer and drier than average. However, that doesn't mean we didn't have anomalies.

2020 weather was warmer and drier than average for Eau Claire
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
All of the specific climate data is for Eau Claire, the Chippewa Valley's only NWS climate site. The nearest climate sites are La Crosse to the south, Minneapolis to the west, Duluth to the north, and Wausau to the east.
Temperatures for Eau Claire were above average more than they were below in 2020, but no month reported anything too crazy. An important note on climate data is that when averaged over a month and especially a year, one degree is a notable deviation from the average. On the year as a whole, Eau Claire finished 1.2° warmer than average.
Looking at precipitation, it was a dry year. Only four months finished above average, and there were two months where Eau Claire didn't even get half of the monthly average. As a whole, Eau Claire finished 1.30" drier than average.
Snowfall was well above average, but note this is last winter's snow totals, which began in the fall of 2019 and lasted through this spring. Eau Claire's 2019-2020 winter had 63.5" snow, which was 16.5" over the average winter snow of 47.0".
There were several significant weather events, too, in 2020. We had a trace of snow on Mother's Day, which consequently was not the latest snow in a season. That was May 12, 1946.
On to the forecast starting Friday, January 1, 2021:
Temperatures were cool again Friday after yet another cloudy day. That meant that our lows were actually above average in the teens and highs were not much better close to 20. While there were a few peeks of sun late in the afternoon, it didn't help temperatures much.
Like the past couple of nights, Friday night will have partial clearing and that will give an opportunity for more fog to form. With temps below zero, the moisture in especially dense fog will freeze to the colder ground to create a layer of ice. This will be possible for the next several nights once again.
There should finally be some sunshine again Saturday, but only expect a partly cloudy sky. That should allow temps to warm above average into the upper 20s, and highs in the 30s are likely by Sunday. Monday will be the warmest day, but a weak cold front will bring a slight chance for light snow with best chances closer to highway 8 and further north.
Temps only cool to the low 30s for highs and near 20 for lows early next week, with another weak system to bring small chances for snow Wednesday, followed by cooling temps.

FALMOUTH, Maine (AP) — A storm that’s lashing parts of New England with heavy rain, snow and wind is causing sporadic power outages. More than 15,000 homes and businesses are without electricity in Vermont on Saturday. Power outages also were reported across the region. The National Weather Service says a foot or more of snow is possible across the higher elevations of northern New England. Gusts as high as 50 to 60 mph are expected along the Maine coast. Locations that don’t get snow could see as much as 2 inches of rain.

Democratic wins could strengthen Biden's legislative push
| null | null |

WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in November was tempered by concerns that he’d face Republican opposition in the Senate that could stymie him at every turn. Those worries eased this past week when Democrats swept two Senate runoffs in Georgia, giving Democrats control of Congress and the White House for the first time since 2011. And the bipartisan outrage over the violent insurrection at the Capitol by pro-Donald Trump supporters could, at least for a moment, ease the partisan tensions that have paralyzed the legislative process for years. But major legislation still probably won’t advance without at least some Republican support, and Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell has shown skill in keeping his party united against Democratic priorities.

NEW YORK (AP) — Frustrated by the flow of coronavirus vaccine from the federal government, Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Monday floated the idea of buying shots for New Yorkers directly from one of the vaccine makers, Pfizer. The idea seemed far from a sure bet, with the pharmaceutical giant saying it would need federal approval to sell to state governments. If that were to happen, the cost and amount have yet to be discussed. Regardless, Cuomo says he feels compelled to broach the idea because his state, like many others, has far more eligible residents than supply.

The actor had mistakenly been reported dead by her publicist earlier Monday. Roberts’ publicist Mike Pingel told The Associated Press Monday afternoon that Roberts, 65, is alive but in poor condition. He had said that Roberts collapsed in her home and was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Multiple media outlets, including the AP, reported Roberts’ death. The AP removed its obituary and sent an advisory noting that the actor was still alive.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Stuck at home on New Year’s Eve during the pandemic, TV viewers celebrated with Ryan Seacrest, Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen in big numbers. ABC’s “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” with host Seacrest drew 18.4 million viewers in the hour between 11:30 p.m. and 12:30 a.m. EST, an increase of 5% over 2020’s audience. CNN ushered in 2021 with its highest-rated New Year’s Eve special yet, as 3.4 million people tuned in to share the evening with Cooper and Cohen. According to Nielsen figures out Wednesday, ABC’s special and an episode of CBS’ “60 Minutes” were the only non-football programs to make last week’s top 20 list of most-watched shows.

MILAN (AP) — Florence’s Uffizi Gallery is making available for viewing online 88 rarely seen drawings of Dante’s Divine Comedy to mark the 700th anniversary in 2021 of the Italian poet’s death. The virtual show of high-resolution images of works by 16th-Century Renaissance artist Federico Zuccari will be accessible from Friday “for free, any hour of the day, for everyone,’’ said Uffizi director Eike Schmidt. The drawings illustrate Dante’s masterpiece, “The Divine Comedy,” an epic poem in three parts recounting a pilgrim’s travels through hell, purgatory and heaven. Dante Alighieri is revered as the father of the Italian language.

BEIJING (AP) — China reports its economy grew 2.3% in 2020 as a recovery from the coronavirus pandemic accelerated while the United States, Europe and Japan struggled with disease outbreaks. Official data showed growth in the three months ending in December rose to 6.5% over a year earlier, up from the previous quarter’s 4.9%. Activity contracted by 6.8% in the first quarter in 2020 as factories and shops shut down to fight the virus. The following quarter, China became the first major country to grow again with a 3.2% expansion after the Communist Party declared victory over the virus in March and reopened the economy.

BELGRADE, Serbia (AP) — Defying U.S. calls to reduce its dependency on Russian energy supplies, Serbia has officially launched a new gas link that will bring additional Russian gas to the Balkan country via Bulgaria and Turkey. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic on Friday attended an official ceremony to open the 400-kilometer (250-mile) section of the Turkish Stream pipeline, saying Serbia has become “much richer” thanks to the new Russian supplies. Like the almost-completed Nord Stream 2 pipeline that is to double Russian gas supplies to Germany, the Turkish Stream was threatened by U.S. sanctions against companies involved in the project.

Dutch authorities to quickly begin vaccinating health staff

AMSTERDAM (AP) — The Dutch government says that it will begin vaccinating thousands of frontline health care workers as soon as possible to ease pressure on hospitals hit by coronavirus-related staffing shortages. The announcement Saturday marked an abrupt change to a policy of beginning vaccinations on Jan. 8 that had drawn criticism for leaving the Netherlands lagging behind other countries that have already begun. In a statement, the government says that the “worrying situation in acute care is in part due to the illness of care workers, often corona-related.” It says it wants to start vaccinations as soon as possible.

Dense Fog Advisory issued for 5th consecutive night
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
For the fifth night in a row, there is a Dense Fog Advisory in effect for at least part of the WQOW viewing area. So far, tonight's advisory does not cover as much area, as the fog is closer to central Wisconsin with the advisory in effect until 10am for Taylor, Clark, and Jackson counties.
Fog will still be patchy and possibly dense elsewhere, but it will be the thickest for most of the time in the advisory area. The past few nights also started with the advisory only covering a part of the area, but then was expanded further west. Visibility will be below 1/2 mile at times in the advisory area, and there could be patchy spots further west of the advisory of thicker fog, too.
As has been the message the past few nights, watch out for slippery spots on roads especially where the fog is/just was the thickest as the temps remain below freezing.
High temperatures were above average by just a few degrees today, but don't expect much change over the next few days. Thus, we'll continue to be stuck in this pattern of slightly above average temps, but with fog and clouds.
Remember to slow down and turn on your low beam headlights when driving in fog, even during the day. Most cars with automatic lights will not turn the lights on by themselves in fog during the day, so you'll have to double check and manually turn them on yourself.
Expect highs to be as high as the low 30s through the middle of next week, with not much for precipitation chances as we remain stuck under an upper level blocking pattern jet stream, which basically prevents our normal west to east progression of weather.
Chances to see more than a few minutes of sunshine arrive by the end of the weekend with better chances next week, but still not great chances.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Two fishermen have rescued a naked fugitive who they found sitting on a tree branch in Australian crocodile habitat. Cam Faust says he and fellow recreational fisher heard 40-year-old Luke Voskresensky yell for help on Sunday as they set crab traps from their dinghy in mangroves on the outskirts of Darwin. Faust says Voskresensky had explained that he had been lost for four days and survived by eating snails. Voskresensky was taken to a Darwin hospital, where he was placed under police guard. Police say he had gone on the run after being charged with armed robbery and freed on bail.

Shares have advanced in Asia as the changing of the guard in the U.S. is raising hopes for more support for the economy and more aggressive measures to fight the pandemic. Benchmarks were higher in Tokyo, Seoul and Hong Kong but slipped in Shanghai. President-elect Joe Biden’s nominee for treasury secretary, former Federal Reserve chair Janet Yellen is calling on Congress to do more to fight the recession to avoid an even worse downturn. U.S. markets were closed Monday for a national holiday. Analysts say attention is focused on Wednesday’s inauguration and the beginning of a new administration as President Donald Trump departs.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Brazil’s neighbors have started restricting international travel amid concern about the spread of a new coronavirus variant that experts say may be more contagious and driving a second wave of infections. Guyana’s government closed its border with South America’s largest country on Friday, two days after Colombia halted passenger flights to and from Brazil; both nations cited the new variant as their reason. Argentina’s government decided to cut in half the number of flights to Brazil starting Feb. 1, according to a Jan. 27 report in state news agency Telam. And Peru on Jan. 26 banned air traffic from Brazil; the governor of Peru’s Loreto department bordering Brazil called on the government to shut down land crossings, too.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A motorist was killed when her head became trapped between her vehicle and a payment machine at a parking garage in Ohio’s capital city. Columbus police responded to the garage around 5:40 a.m. Tuesday after a security guard found the woman, whose name wasn’t released. A review of security camera footage showed the incident had occurred around 11:30 p.m. Monday, as the woman was leaving the garage. The woman was going to use a credit card to pay for her parking but dropped the card outside the vehicle. When she reached down to pick it up, she accidentally stepped on the car’s accelerator and the vehicle moved forward, trapping her head.

BALTIMORE (AP) — President Joe Biden plans to sign an executive order that aims to boost government purchases from U.S. manufacturers. The goal of the order would be to use the $600 billion the federal government spends on procurement to boost domestic factories. Administration officials say the order being signed Monday would require more components of the goods bought by the government to be domestically produced and make the waiver process more stringent. To help enforce these goals, the order establishes a job at the White House Office of Management and Budget to monitor the initiative and focus on ensuring the government buys more domestically made goods.

South Africa's trailblazing Black food writer dies of virus

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — South Africa’s pioneer Black food writer Dora Sitole, who quietly defied apartheid to win respect and a readership for African cuisine, died this month of COVID-19. Hired by a canned foods company in 1980 to promote their products by giving cooking lessons in Black townships, Sitole went on to train as a Cordon Bleu chef, become food editor of a leading magazine, the author of several bestselling cookbooks and a television personality.

"JOHANNESBURG (AP) — South Africa’s pioneer Black food writer Dora Sitole, who quietly defied apartheid to win respect and a readership for African cuisine, died this month of COVID-19. Hired by a canned foods company in 1980 to promote their products by giving cooking lessons in Black townships, Sitole went on to train as a Cordon Bleu chef, become food editor of a leading magazine, the author of several bestselling cookbooks and a television personality. She has been hailed as a trailblazer who paved the way for several Black celebrity chefs now popular with both Black and white South Africans. Sitole died this month aged 65.",

Group hopes to save historic bridge
| null | null |
wqow.com

COBBAN (WQOW) - The Cobban Bridge located a few miles north of Jim Falls has been a crossing of the Chippewa River for over a hundred years and may soon be demolished, but one local man is trying to save it.
The Cobban Bridge used to be located much farther south and allowed travel over the Chippewa River before Lake Wissota was created. When plans were being made to create the new lake, it was identified that the bridge wouldn’t be able to stand where it was, but area farmers did not want to see this bridge destroyed. So, in the winter of 1918 the bridge was moved piece by piece to Cobban.
"And what they did back then is farmers took it apart," said Chuck Nagel, the founder of Cobban Bridge Preservation Inc. "They disassembled it in the wintertime on the ice and they moved it up here on a horse and sleigh one piece of metal at a time."
The bridge was permanently closed to public use in 2017. Shortly after, Nagel founded the group now trying to save the bridge.
In a presentation made in 2017, the county highway department said rehabilitating the bridge just wasn't feasible and didn't work for the needs of the community around it, adding that its historical integrity would be difficult if not impossible to maintain.
"When I learned that this bridge was going to be demolished I and some other volunteers decided we wanted to see what we could do to preserve it by putting it up on land for essentially eternity," Nagel said.
A new bridge is planned to be built in its place in 2022. Nagel had hoped to move the bridge while the river was covered in ice this winter, but said "bureaucracy" has slowed things down considerably, though he's still hopeful.
"We intend to remove it the exact same way using the ice, but rather than wood to support it'll be railroad tracked on the ice and across the road and slide it on railroad track over into the field," he said.
But if Cobban Bridge Preservation Inc. and Chippewa County cannot come to an agreement on when the bridge can be moved and how the group will be reimbursed, the bridge may end up being demolished.
Nagel hopes to see this bridge moved next winter and to move the bridge on to donated land about a quarter mile down the highway from where it currently stands. He also hopes to build a park around the bridge.

Pelosi's talk of limits on Trump nuke power raises old worry

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s concern about constraining President Donald Trump’s ability to launch a nuclear attack in his final days in office highlights a longstanding question: should any president have the sole authority to start a nuclear war? There is no indication Trump is thinking of giving such an order. But the question itself is one that has troubled arms control advocates for years. The military is obliged to follow all legal orders from their command-in-chief. But what if it were determined that a president’s nuclear strike order was illegal under the law of armed conflict?

Trump blocks Venezuelans' deportation in last political gift

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Donald Trump has shielded tens of thousands of Venezuelan migrants from deportation from the U.S. The order signed Tuesday night was a final reward for Venezuelan exiles who have been among Trump’s most loyal supporters and who fear losing the same privileged access to the White House during the Biden administration. The move capped a busy final day in office in which the Trump administration also issued a fresh round of sanctions seeking to undermine the rule of Nicolás Maduro. But ahead of Joe Biden’s inauguration Wednesday attention focused on the president-elect’s choice to be secretary of state. Anthony Blinken in his Senate confirmation hearing said he would continue to recognize opposition leader Juan Guaidó as Venezuela’s interim president.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Social media companies decided this past week they had finally seen enough from President Donald Trump. Facebook and Instagram suspended Trump at least until Inauguration Day. Twitch and Snapchat also disabled Trump’s accounts. To top it all off, Twitter ended a nearly 12-year run and shuttered his account, severing an instant line of communication to his 89 million followers. Conservatives are crying foul. Many are asking whether Twitter and Facebook can legally take such action. The short answer is yes.

TOKYO (AP) — Asian shares are mostly rising on the optimism over the new leadership in Washington that has set off a rally on Wall Street. Benchmarks in Japan, South Korea, Australia and Shanghai rose Thursday, but fell moderately in Hong Kong. Hopes are high that President Joe Biden’s administration will mean more support for the struggling U.S. economy, setting off a recovery that’s crucial for the export-driven Asian region. Stocks rallied to record highs on Wall Street. Biden, who took the oath of office to become the 46th U.S. president, has pitched a $1.9 trillion plan to help families and businesses.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Nine people have been killed and one wounded when gunmen opened fire at a wake in the central Mexican state of Guanajuato. Public safety officials in the city of Celaya said in a statement the gunmen arrived late Thursday night. Local press report that the wake was held for a man murdered a day earlier. Images from the scene showed bodies strewn in the street. Guanajuato is at the center of the bloody turf war between rival organized crime groups. Thousands have been killed in Guanajuato since the local Santa Rosa de Lima gang faced off with the Jalisco New Generation cartel in 2017.

BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanon’s foreign minister has held talks with the Swiss ambassador to Beirut after Switzerland started a probe into possible money laundering and embezzlement at the Mideast country’s central bank. The minister and the ambassador did not offer comments following their meeting in Beirut on Monday, saying only that the probe is a matter that judicial authorities are dealing with. Switzerland’s attorney general said last week he has asked Lebanon for cooperation into the probe. It’s not clear what prompted the Swiss investigation. Lebanon is facing its worst economic and financial crisis in its modern history.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is walking back his claims that his state has now vaccinated 1 million seniors. DeSantis made the assertion Friday during a made-for-TV moment when he joined a 100-year-old World War II veteran for a cable news appearance. The governor said the veteran would be the 1 millionth senior to get a lifesaving shot in the arm. As it turns out, the assertion was premature. The Republican governor later said the injection was symbolic of hitting the goal of 1 million doses administered to his state’s seniors. That goal may not be officially reached until the weekend.

JERUSALEM (AP) — An Israeli military court has found a prominent Palestinian activist guilty on six charges related to his participation in protests against Jewish settlements and alleged human rights violations. Issa Amro’s supporters say he was convicted Wednesday of three counts of protesting without a permit, two counts of obstructing security forces and one count of assault. The charges date back to 2010. Sentencing is scheduled for Feb. 8. Amro is a well-known activist who has been detained multiple times, often after confrontations with settlers in which he says he was attacked and beaten. The Palestinian Authority detained him for a week in 2017.

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — A Brazilian Supreme Court justice has authorized the investigation of Health Minister Eduardo Pazuello to determine whether he is responsible for the ongoing COVID-19 crisis in the Amazonian city Manaus. Brazil’s Prosecutor-general Augusto Aras on Saturday asked the court to open an investigation, citing a document that said the health ministry knew of a possible oxygen shortage in Manaus as early as Jan. 8, but that the federal government didn’t begin sending extra supplies until four days later. Jam-packed hospitals this month ran out of oxygen, and patients’ family members searched for oxygen tanks to keep their loved ones breathing. Still, dozens died asphyxiated.

"RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — A Brazilian Supreme Court justice has authorized the investigation of Health Minister Eduardo Pazuello to determine whether he is responsible for the ongoing COVID-19 crisis in the Amazonian city Manaus. Brazil’s Prosecutor-general Augusto Aras on Saturday asked the court to open an investigation, citing a document that said the health ministry knew of a possible oxygen shortage in Manaus as early as Jan. 8, but that the federal government didn’t begin sending extra supplies until four days later. Jam-packed hospitals this month ran out of oxygen, and patients’ family members searched for oxygen tanks to keep their loved ones breathing. Still, dozens died asphyxiated.",

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — Police say a woman has died in what appears to be New Zealand’s first fatal shark attack in eight years. Police say emergency services responded late Thursday afternoon to reports of a woman “injured in the water” at a popular beach. A vacationing doctor joined paramedics, lifeguards and emergency services personnel in attempting to save the woman. The last fatal shark attack in New Zealand was in February 2013.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Tony Evers and Wisconsin’s top health official are defending the state’s rollout of coronavirus vaccine. They’re urging patience and vigilance amid criticism that the process is not as organized or fast as it could be. As of Monday, 266,675 doses of vaccine had been shipped to Wisconsin and 85,609 had been administered. Wisconsin Department of Health Services Secretary Andrea Palm says that for now, demand for the vaccine will outstrip availability. Republican state Sen. Alberta Darling wants to know what’s delaying vaccinations. Darling says Evers is “on the verge of yet another disaster.”

Evers looks to hire outside attorneys to handle PFAS suits

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Gov. Tony Evers’ administration is looking to hire outside attorneys to potentially file lawsuits over PFAS contamination. The administration announced Friday it will start soliciting bids from law firms. Evers will make the final decision on who to hire. The announcement did not say who the administration might sue. State Department of Justice spokeswoman Gillian Drummond said hiring outside counsel is in the state’s interest because it will allow the state to use attorneys with experience litigating PfAS cases and the lawsuits would require substantial DOJ resources. The announcement comes after the state Department of Natural Resources announced Thursday that elevated levels of PFAS have been found in Madison-area lakes.

NEW YORK (AP) — It’s not just you. What’s going on with GameStop’s stock doesn’t make sense to a lot of people. The struggling video game retailer’s stock has been making stupefying moves this month, wild enough to raise concerns from Wall Street to the White House. It’s forcing hard questions about whether the market is in a bubble and whether a new generation of traders should be allowed to take full advantage of all the tools and free trades available on their phones, regardless of how reckless they may seem to outsiders. Champions of the proletariat, meanwhile, are cheering louder from the sidelines, saying the 1% are finally getting their comeuppance.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — U.S. Attorney’s Office of Middle Tennessee on Friday says FBI agents have been searching the homes and offices of state lawmakers. U.S. Attorney spokesman David Boling confirmed the searches on Friday included the homes of former GOP House Speaker Glen Casada and state Rep. Robin Smith. Boling declined to provide further information regarding the nature of the searches and how many lawmakers were involved. A spokesman for the FBI referred all questions to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. Republican Gov. Bill Lee told reporters he had spoken to current House Speaker Cameron Sexton about the searches, describing them as “FBI raids.”

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A Texas woman convicted of murder in the 2003 choking death of a boy she was babysitting was released from prison on bond after a judge said new evidence shows she she didn’t intentionally hurt the child. Travis County District Judge Karen Sage ordered Rosa Jimenez released on bond Wednesday, citing “clear and convincing evidence.” The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals will make the ultimate decision on whether to overturn Jimenez’s conviction or grant a new trial. Jimenez has served 15 years in prison in the death of 21-month-old Bryan Guttierez, who choked on a wad of paper towels while in Jimenez’s care.

DICKINSON, Texas (AP) — The race to be the mayor of a Houston suburb has ended with the winner’s name being drawn from a top hat. Sean Skipworth and Jennifer Lawrence had been vying to be the next mayor of Dickinson. But after a runoff election last month and a recount earlier this week, each candidate had ended up with 1,010 votes. Texas law says a tie in a race for public office can be resolved by casting lots. The Galveston County Daily News reports that Skipworth became mayor after a ping pong ball with his name was pulled out of a hat during a ceremony Thursday evening. Lawrence, meanwhile, said she trusted the process and will support Skipworth.

The stars are back, even if the crowds aren’t. In a return of the A-list to Washington, a slew of glittery celebrities is descending on the capital virtually or in person to welcome the new administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, a duo popular in Hollywood, where Donald Trump was decidedly not. They’re led by Lady Gaga — about as big a star as you can get — singing the national anthem Wednesday on the West Front of the Capitol, with Jennifer Lopez and Garth Brooks contributing musical performances. Stars will also partake in other events, including a virtual parade and a primetime special.

VISEGRAD, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — Islands of waste are floating down some of the most beautiful rivers in the Balkans, causing an environmental emergency and endangering a regional power plant. Plastic bottles, wooden planks, rusty barrels and other garbage that have been swept away from landfills in the area, have clogged the Drina river near the eastern Bosnian town of Visegrad. Further upstream, the Drina tributaries in Montenegro, Serbia and Bosnia are carrying more waste after swelling during winter. The Balkan nations have poor waste management and tons of garbage routinely end up in rivers. A broken barrier this week caused a massive congestion.

NEW YORK (AP) — A judge has ordered a Colorado geophysicist accused of dragging a police officer down steps to be beaten outside the Capitol building detained after a prosecutor says he tried to flee the country and commit suicide. U.S. Magistrate Judge Andrew Krause said 51-year-old Jeffrey Sabol was a danger to the community and a flight risk. He cited evidence that showed Sabol on Jan. 6 helping drag a law enforcement officer down Capitol steps to be beaten by a mob. Sabol was arrested Friday morning at the Westchester Medical Center prior to his remote appearance in White Plains federal court. Krause said the evidence against Sabol was “very disturbing” and “shocking.” Sabol’s lawyer said his client was stable and had family support.

Police departments across the country are reviewing the behavior of dozens of officers who were in Washington on the day of the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol. An Associated Press review finds at least 31 officers are being scrutinized or face criminal charges tied to the Jan. 6 events in the nation’s capital. Most haven’t been publicly identified and only a few have been charged. Experts say it’s up to police chiefs to strike a balance between maintaining their officers’ First Amendment rights and dealing with community mistrust of those officers who were on the scene in Washington.

ISTANBUL (AP) — Turkey’s health minister says the country has identified 15 people who carry a highly contagious coronavirus variant after it was discovered in the United Kingdom. In a statement Friday, Health Minister Fahrettin Koca said the strain was found in travelers arriving from the U.K. He said they were in quarantine, along with people they had been in contact with. He said the strain was not identified in passengers from elsewhere. Turkey suspended flights with the U.K. along with other countries in late December upon discovery of the new strain’s spread and quarantined at least 4,603 passengers. It now also requires a negative virus test for travelers.

Report: Israeli settler population surged during Trump era

JERUSALEM (AP) — A pro-settler group says Israel’s West Bank settler population has grown at a far higher rate than the country as a whole over the last four years. That period coincides with the Trump administration’s unprecedented acceptance of settlement activity. The report by West Bank Jewish Population Stats shows the settler population growing by around 13% since the start of 2017 to reach 475,481. During the same period, Israel’s population grew by around 8% to reach nearly 9.3 million. The Palestinians and much of the international community view the settlements as illegal and an obstacle to peace. At least 220,000 settlers live in annexed east Jerusalem, which was not included in the report.

BERLIN (AP) — World leaders have breathed an audible sigh of relief that the United States under President Joe Biden is rejoining the global effort to curb climate change, a cause that his predecessor had shunned. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and French President Emmanuel Macron were among those welcoming Biden’s decision to rejoin the the Paris climate accord. The treaty, forged in the French capital in 2015, commits countries to put forward plans for reducing their emissions of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, which is released from burning fossil fuels. Former President Donald Trump had questioned the scientific warnings about man-made global warming, at times accusing other countries of using the Paris accord as a club to hurt the U.S.

MULTAN, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistan’s counter-terrorism police say they have arrested seven militants from an outlawed Shiite group and foiled a plot to target the leadership of rival majority Sunni groups. The Punjab Counter-Terrorism Department said in a statement Thursday that the suspects were captured in the past 24 hours from various parts of the province. The arrests come days after a group of Sunni militants abducted and killed 11 Shiite coal miners. Since then, minority Shiites from Hazara community have been rallying in Baluchistan, refusing to bury the slain miners until Prime Minister Imran Khan personally visits them to assure their protection.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.N. General Assembly has approved a resolution condemning damage and destruction of religious sites and asks the secretary-general to convene a global conference to spearhead public support for safeguarding places of religious heritage. It condemns the increasing targeting of “cultural property, including religious sites and ritual objects … by terrorist attacks and outlawed militias.” It says this often results in destruction as well as theft and illicit trafficking of stolen items. The Saudi-proposed measure, adopted Thursday, says religious sites represent the “history, social fabric and traditions” of people in every country and must be protected.

MADRID (AP) — A regional election in Catalonia remains up in the air after a court took a preliminary decision against a 3-month delay ordered by the northeastern Spanish region’s government. The Catalonia High Court said that, pending a final decision on the matter before Feb. 8, the election should preventively be kept for Feb. 14 instead of pushing it back to May. The timing leaves little choice other than to begin with preparations for the vote. All political parties had agreed to the postponement except for the regional Socialists, whose candidate has the best chances of winning the vote according to polls. The leading candidate is Salvador Illa, currently serving as the country’s health minister.

OSTRAVA, Czech Republic (AP) — The biggest crematorium in the Czech Republic has been overwhelmed by mounting numbers of pandemic victims. With new confirmed COVID-19 infections around record highs, the situation looks set to worsen. Authorities in the northeastern city of Ostrava have been speeding up plans to build a fourth furnace but, in the meantime, have sought help from the government’s central crisis committee for pandemic coordination. On Thursday, cars from funeral companies delivered caskets to the crematorium every few minutes, some of them with “COVID” written on them. These days, the crematorium receives more than 100 coffins daily, about double its maximum cremation capacity.

Yet while some QAnon supporters are leaving the movement, others are concocting ever more elaborate explanations to keep their faith alive.

WASHINGTON (AP) — 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 has stopped short of saying he would 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 hasn’t committed to an impeachment vote.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Spacewalking astronauts encountered cable trouble while attempting to make home improvements 260 miles up. Two NSA astronauts installed a high-speed data link outside the International Space Station’s European lab. But it took a few tries to get the antenna working right. The astronauts had more cable problems that prevented them from completely hooking up an experiment platform on the Columbus lab. The platform has been up there awaiting activation for almost a year. The astronauts will perform a second spacewalk on Monday to complete battery upgrades to the station’s solar power grid.

McConnell seeks to push Trump impeachment trial to February

WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell wants to postpone Donald Trump’s impeachment trial. McConnell on Thursday proposed delaying the trial until February to give the former president time to prepare and review his case. The idea could appeal to some Senate Democrats, who are eager to spend time confirming President Joe Biden’s Cabinet nominees. The House impeached Trump on a single charge of incitement of insurrection for the deadly attack on the Capitol that unfolded on Jan. 6. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said the trial has to happen even though Trump has left office so that there is accountability.

NEW YORK (AP) — There’s a government office right there in the very title of Ted Danson’s new series, but the new NBC comedy “Mr. Mayor” is anything but political. Danson considers the show more an office or family comedy. The show is from Robert Carlock and Tina Fey, the brains behind “30 Rock” and “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.” The 30-minute comedy premieres Thursday. Danson’s mayor has a chief rival in Holly Hunter, who plays an ultra-liberal councilmember. In the pilot, the mayor, hoping for a winning issue, steals the idea of a plastic drinking straw ban from his daughter and it blows up in his face.

In the pilot, the mayor, hoping for a winning issue, steals the idea of a plastic drinking straw ban from his daughter and it blows up in his face.",

You Ask, We Answer: Flashing yellow arrow vs. yield sign, who has the right of way?
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
EAU CLAIRE (WQOW) - In Monday's You Ask We Answer, a couple of viewers had a traffic-related question.
They asked if someone is turning right with a yield sign and another person is turning left with a flashing yellow arrow, who has the right of way?
The answer is neither according to Eau Claire County Sheriff Ron Cramer.
Cramer said technically if both drivers got into a crash with one another, both drivers could be cited for a traffic violation.
Cramer said the flashing yellow arrow means drivers must yield to oncoming traffic and those who have a yield sign must enter traffic with caution.
When we asked the sheriff who has more right of way over the other, he still said they could both be in the wrong because they were both under caution.
"Who caused the crash originally? Sometimes[deputies] won't cite either individual and actually leave it up to the insurance company because even if you are there, you are 20 percent at fault just for being on the roadway," Cramer said.
Cramer said a traffic violation can lead to a fine of more than $100 by the time it goes to court.

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — International critics of Venezuela’s socialist government have united in rejecting the country’s newly chosen congress as illegitimate. But they’re using notably different language in referring to the opposition leader they’ve long recognized as the country’s rightful leader. The European Union on Wednesday vowed to continue “engagement” with opposition leader Juan Guaió. But it didn’t refer to him as “interim president,” as it has in the past. A EU official, however, insisted there was no change in the bloc’s stance on Guaidó, saying the statement was merely meant to focus on rejecting the “non-democratic election” of the new congress, which was sworn in on Tuesday.

BRUSSELS (AP) — Frustration is mounting from Europe to North America over reduced shipments of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine while the U.S. pharmaceutical company increases production capacity at its Belgian plant. Governments say it is costing critical time during the early stages of the rollout to care homes and hospital personnel. Italy has threatened legal action. The leader of Canada’s most populous province said Pfizer’s chief executive should be chased “with a firecracker.” A top European Union official on Wednesday icily invoked the Latin phrase for “agreements must be kept.” Pfizer says the plant upgrade will result in the company producing about 2 billion doses this year instead of 1.3 billion.

NEW YORK (AP) — Federal prisons across the U.S. have been placed on lockdown as officials aim to quell any potential violence that could arise in the run-up to President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday. It comes as law enforcement officials nationwide are preparing for potential armed protests in all 50 states and in Washington, D.C. The lockdown at more than 120 federal Bureau of Prisons facilities took effect at 12 a.m. on Saturday. Officials say the lockdown is precautionary and there’s no specific information or threats that led to it. It also comes as the federal prison system has also identified a possible case of tuberculosis at a federal lockup in Mendota, California.

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — Authorities say two police officers who were on the scene when a white officer shot and partially paralyzed a Black man in Wisconsin have returned to duty. The update announced Wednesday comes as Officer Rusten Sheskey, who shot Jacob Blake seven times on Aug. 23 in Kenosha, remains on administrative leave while a police review board examines the case. Sheskey was placed on administrative leave following Blake’s shooting along with Officers Vincent Arenas and Brittany Meronek. Police said in a statement Wednesday that Arenas and Meronek returned to duty Jan. 20. Hundreds of people were arrested and multiple businesses were destroyed during protests following Blake’s shooting. Kenosha County District Attorney Michael Graveley this month declined to file charges against Sheskey.

WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — Melania Trump says she’s “disappointed and disheartened” by the deadly riot at the Capitol by supporters of her husband. But as she breaks her silence, she’s also lashing out at those she says have used the tragic event to spread “salacious gossip, unwarranted personal attacks and misleading accusations” about her. Her statement on the White House blog Monday marked her first public comment in the five days since a violent mob of Trump supporters, angry over Trump’s election loss and stirred up by the president himself, stormed the Capitol. Five people were left dead.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden delivered his inaugural speech on the very spot where an insurrectionist mob sought to overturn his election only two weeks prior. He strode through the West Terrace doors where a Capitol police officer was brutally assaulted and where perhaps the most riotous moments of the Capitol siege occurred. From the platform, Biden saw a National Mall mostly empty of people. The COVID-19 pandemic had already cut the size of the crowd, and the heavy security in Washington kept even more people away from the inaugural festivities.

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — Scientists in South Africa are urgently testing to see if the vaccines for COVID-19 will be effective against the country’s variant virus. The genomic studies being done in South Africa come as Britain’s health minister and other experts in the U.K. have said they worry that vaccines may not be effective against the South African variant. Dr. Richard Lessells, an infectious diseases expert who is studying South Africa’s variant said it is more infectious than the original COVID-19 virus and has rapidly become dominant in the country’s coastal areas. It is expected that the variant will quickly become dominant inland in Johannesburg, the country’s largest city, and the surrounding Gauteng province.

Lawmakers resolved to work almost through the night to uphold the will of the voters. The Capitol was under siege for hours Wednesday, forcing lawmakers into hiding before being evacuated by police. Earlier, at a huge rally near the White House, the president had urged his supporters to march to Capitol Hill to protest his election defeat. Congress eventually resumed after the protest, and lawmakers confirmed Biden won. Trump promised an “orderly transition” on Jan. 20.

MOSCOW (AP) — Twelve people have been killed and 11 others injured in the collision of a tractor-trailer and a minibus in central Russia. An Interior Ministry statement said the collision took place last Friday near Syzran in the Samara region, about 730 kilometers (450 miles) southeast of Moscow. Preliminary information indicated the tractor-trailer skidded and veered into the oncoming lane. Russia’s Investigative Committee said it has opened a criminal probe into the accident. The condition of the truck’s driver was not reported.

WINONA, Texas (AP) — Authorities say a pastor has been killed and two other people were injured during a shooting at an East Texas church. Smith County Sheriff Larry Smith says the suspected gunman, 21-year-old Mytrez Deunte Woolen, was on the run from authorities late Saturday and had hidden in the Starrville Methodist Church near Winona. Smith says Pastor Mark Allen McWilliams confronted Woolen in a church bathroom on Sunday morning. Woolen shot and killed the 62-year-old pastor, wounded another person and a third was injured in a fall. The shooting suspect fled in the pastor’s vehicle but was later arrested. Smith says Woolen faces capital murder and felony assault charges.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The World Bank on Tuesday forecast that the global economy will see a subdued recovery this year from a devastating pandemic but warned that the near-term outlook is highly uncertain and growth could be harmed if infections keep rising and the rollout of vaccines is delayed. In its new Global Economic Outlook, the World Bank forecast growth this year of 4% following a decline for the global economy of 4.3% in 2020. That was the biggest drop in global output since a contraction of 9.8% in 1945, a decline that was related to the demobilization as World War II was ending.

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s top challenger in upcoming elections is promising a tough line toward Iran and the Palestinians. Yet Gideon Saar says he’s confident he has the tools to avoid what appears to be a collision course with the incoming Biden administration. Saar is a former star in the ruling Likud party. He’s accused Netanyahu of turning the movement into a sycophantic tool for survival as the prime minister faces a corruption trial. Saar welcomed President Donald Trump’s affinity for Israel, but also acknowledged Netanyahu’s close ties with the divisive U.S. leader have undermined traditional bipartisan support for Israel.

Comparison between Capitol siege, BLM protests is denounced

Black activists are coming out strongly against a growing narrative among conservatives that equates the deadly siege on the U.S. Capitol with last summer’s Black Lives Matter protests. Republican lawmakers defending President Donald Trump made the comparison again Wednesday while building their case against impeachment. In fact, the two events were fundamentally different. One was an intentional, direct attack on a hallowed democratic institution, with the goal of overturning a fair and free election. The other was a coast-to-coast protest movement focused on racial injustice that occasionally, but not frequently, turned violent. A Rutgers University professor says the GOP has become the party of false equivalences.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Prosecutors have dropped trespassing charges against an activist who secretly recorded Iowa’s largest pork producer using heat to kill hundreds of pigs last year as the pandemic devastated the industry. Matt Johnson, an activist with the group Direct Action Everywhere, had been scheduled to stand trial Monday in Grundy County, Iowa, on two counts of trespassing at Iowa Select Farms properties. County prosecutors dismissed the charges Thursday at the request of Iowa Select, whose personnel had been subpoenaed to testify. A company spokeswoman says it “cannot be distracted by individuals who choose to break the law and grandstand.” Johnson is an Iowa native who now lives in Berkeley, California. He says the company is “desperate to conceal their abhorrent and criminal conduct.”

KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — Claims filed on behalf of two men shot by an Illinois teen during a night of protests over a police shooting in Kenosha, Wisconsin, allege the city and Kenosha County were negligent in their response to the unrest. Gaige Grosskreutz, who was seriously wounded, and the parents of Anthony Huber, who was killed, have each filed $10 million claim notices. The notices usually are precursors to lawsuits. Grosskreutz and Huber were shot by 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse on Aug. 25 during violent protests that followed the police shooting of Jacob Blake, a Black man who was left partially paralyzed when a white officer fired numerous shots into his back. Rittenhouse, who now is 18, is free on $2 million bail while awaiting trial.

TOKYO (AP) — Japan’s Emperor Naruhito has expressed gratitude to medical professionals and acknowledged the hardship caused by the coronavirus in a New Year’s Day message. It was shared by video instead of the usual public speech in front of large crowds at the palace due to the pandemic. The emperor and his wife Empress Masako sat side by side, next to a sculpted bonsai plant in the video. He expressed empathy for those who lost loved ones or jobs or were lonely. Japan has had more than 3,000 deaths from COVID-19. Worries are growing about another surge in cases, reaching a daily record of 1,337 new cases of infection for the capital Tokyo on Thursday.
