Vice President Harris: A new chapter opens in US politics
| null | null |

WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President Kamala Harris has broken the barrier that has kept men at the top of American power for more than two centuries. The former California senator took the oath of office Wednesday, making her the first female vice president in the nation’s history, as well as the first Black woman and first person of South Asian descent to hold the position. She was later escorted to her new office building and presided over the Senate for the first time to swear in three new Democratic senators. She’s expected to deliver remarks late Wednesday at the Lincoln Memorial, a symbolic choice during a deeply divided period in the nation’s history.

UN fears 'massive' COVID transmission in Ethiopia's Tigray

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — The United Nations fears “massive community transmission” of COVID-19 in Ethiopia’s troubled Tigray region, fueled by displacement and the collapse of health services. Humanitarian workers are finally starting to access the region two months after fighting began. A new U.N. report based on the first on-the-ground assessments confirms some of the grim concerns around Tigray’s some 6 million people since the conflict erupted Nov. 4 between Ethiopian forces and Tigray ones. The U.N. says only five out of 40 hospitals in Tigray are physically accessible. And hospitals outside the Tigray capital are “looted and many reportedly destroyed.”

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Authorities say seven people are facing felony charges after vandalism to at least two federal buildings in Philadelphia on New Year’s Eve. Police also say they recovered Molotov cocktails and other suspicious devices. Officers reported spotting about 50 people all in black around 8:30 p.m. Thursday at the historic U.S. Customs House. And a man was seen throwing a brick through the windows of a federal building and courthouse. Damage to the building was estimated at $3,000. Investigators say anti-police and anti-prison graffiti were scrawled on walls and a sheriff’s van was defaced and windows broken.

Republican-controlled states advance bills to limit abortion

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — Four new proposed abortion restrictions passed the state House Tuesday in Montana, one of several states where GOP gains are lending more momentum to prohibitions on the procedure. The bills come as President Joe Biden looks to change course nationally on the issue, though the Supreme Court has a conservative majority that’s given hope to anti-abortion activists. In Montana, GOP lawmakers are hoping to capitalize on the election of a Republican governor after 16 years of pro-abortion access Democratic governors. Anti-abortion measures are also under consideration in South Carolina and Arkansas, where Republican lawmakers increased their majorities in the legislatures following the 2020 election.

North Korean parliament to convene to approve Kim's agenda

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea’s rubber-stamp parliament is scheduled to convene to pass decisions made by a major ruling party meeting where leader Kim Jong Un vowed maximum efforts to expand his nuclear weapons program in face of what he described as U.S. hostility. The North’s official Korean Central News Agency says deputies laid flowers at the statues of Kim’s grandfather and father at Pyongyang’s Mansu Hill on Saturday as they prepared for the parliamentary session. Meetings of the Supreme People’s Assembly are usually brief, annual affairs that are intended to approve budgets, formalize personnel changes and rubber-stamp policy priorities set by Kim and the ruling party leadership.

Trump pressures Pence to overturn Biden's win
| null | null |
wqow.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on Congress’ tally of the Electoral College vote won by Joe Biden (all times local):
8:55 a.m.
President Donald Trump is turning up the pressure on his vice president in a futile effort to overturn the results of the Nov. 3 presidential election in Congress.
Vice President Mike Pence will preside Wednesday over a joint session of lawmakers for the congressional tallying of electoral votes, but his role is only ministerial.
Taking to Twitter, Trump on Wednesday repeated his unfounded assertions that there was widespread election irregularities and fraud — which have been dismissed by federal courts and his own Justice Department.
“All Mike Pence has to do is send them back to the States, AND WE WIN,” Trump falsely claimed. “Do it Mike, this is a time for extreme courage!”
Pence has no such unilateral power under congressional rules that govern the count.
More than 100 GOP lawmakers are expected to challenge the officially certified electoral votes of several battleground states. Majorities in both chambers are required to reject the will of voters, but enough Republican lawmakers have said they will join with Democrats to reject the last-ditch move by Trump allies.

Lava spatters, flows inside crater of Hawaii volcano

HONOLULU (AP) — Lava spattered and flowed over the weekend inside the crater of a Hawaii volcano that began erupting in December. The Honolulu Star-Advertiser reported that the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory said the lava is confined to the summit crater of Kilauea. The eruption began Dec. 20 within Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island. The observatory said there was no data to indicate magma is moving into either of Kilauea’s rift zones — areas where the volcano is splitting apart. Vents on the northwest side of the crater spattered Saturday while erupting lava flowed through crusted-over channels into a lava lake that has formed in the crater.

LISBON, Portugal (AP) — Portugal’s government has ordered the closure of the country’s schools for two weeks amid a surge in COVID-19 infections. The country’s prime minister blames the surge on a more contagious variant of the new coronavirus. António Costa said Thursday the proportion of cases attributed to the variant, first identified in southeast England, has jumped from 8% last week to 20% this week and may reach 60% in coming weeks. Also Thursday, Catholic church authorities in Portugal announced that services won’t be held from Saturday and until further notice due to the “extreme seriousness” of the pandemic.

Pope says women can read at Mass, but still can't be priests
| null | null |
wqow.com

ROME (AP) — Pope Francis has changed church law to explicitly allow women to do more things during Mass, while reaffirming they cannot be priests. Francis amended the law to formalize what is common practice in many parts of the world: that women can read the Gospel and serve on the altar as eucharistic ministers. Previously, such roles were officially reserved to men even though exceptions were made. Francis said he was making the change to increase recognition of the “precious contribution” women make in the church, while emphasizing that all baptized Catholics have a role to play in the church’s mission.

Wisconsin teen charged with killing infant daughter in woods

MONROE, Wis. (AP) — Prosecutors say a 16-year-old boy has admitted fatally shooting his newborn daughter and leaving her body inside a fallen tree in the woods in southern Wisconsin. Logan Kruckenburg-Anderson, of Albany, is charged as an adult with first-degree intentional homicide and hiding a corpse. He’s being held on $1 million bail following a hearing this week in Green County Circuit Court. His public defender didn’t immediately return a call seeking comment. A criminal complaint says the teen took the infant shortly after she was born Jan. 5 to a wooded area in Albany, about 80 miles southwest of Milwaukee, placed her inside a fallen tree and shot her twice in the head. The complaint says Kruckenburg-Anderson’s girlfriend had given birth to the child in a bathtub at her home.

SEATTLE (AP) — Washington, Oregon and more than two dozen Native American and Alaska Native tribes are suing the federal government to stop the sale of the National Archives building in Seattle. The sale would force the relocation of millions of invaluable historical records to California and Missouri. The government is planning to sell the vast warehouse under a law aimed at unloading excess civilian property, but the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court on Monday says the building is anything but “excess.” It contains irreplaceable documents dating to the 1840s and is used all the time for research about everything from tribal history to Japanese internment during World War II.

Biden faces challenge in guiding America past Trump era

WASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Biden has already been preparing for months to take on a series of historic crises — a pandemic that’s killed at least 373,000 Americans and a sluggish economy that’s left millions jobless. He has talked about the need for bipartisan action and unity among Americans to address these challenges. But the armed insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week sparked by President Donald Trump’s false allegations of voter fraud and attempts at delegitimizing Biden’s win raised fresh questions about how exactly Biden will achieve that unity in a nation so deeply divided. His best bet to achieve that unity _ or move in that direction _ may be to get real results with the coronavirus pandemic and the economy.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been given the title of general secretary of the ruling Workers’ Party in what’s seen as a symbolic move aimed at bolstering his authority. Kim already was the top party leader and the supreme commander of North Korea’s 1.2 million-member military. But analysts say restoring the old title formerly held by his father and grandfather helps cement Kim’s authority during a time when North Korea faces challenges. Kim has vowed to build more sophisticated nuclear weapons and disclosed economic developmental goals during an important ruling party meeting this past week. But observers doubt North Korea has substantial solutions amid coronavirus-related economic shocks, natural disasters and persistent U.S.-led sanctions.

Ossoff seals Democrats' sweep; will be youngest US senator

ATLANTA (AP) — As a teenager, Jon Ossoff was inspired by John Lewis’ pivotal role in the civil rights movement when Lewis was just in his early 20s. He told The Associated Press in December that he was in awe of Lewis — particularly how he had assumed such a prominent position when he was still so young. At 33, the millennial Democrat will assume his own leadership mantle after he helped the party sweep Georgia’s two U.S. Senate runoff races and gain control of the chamber. The Senate seat represents Ossoff’s first political office, and he will be the youngest member of the chamber.

ATLANTA (AP) — Ballots are still being counted in the Georgia runoffs that will determine control of the U.S. Senate and the scope of President-elect Joe Biden’s agenda. Tuesday’s vote offers the first clues about the direction of American politics after the turbulent presidency of Donald Trump. His campaign to undermine the legitimacy of the presidential election clearly succeeded with Republican voters in Georgia. But he also drove Democrats to the polls — their turnout was stronger in the early voting than it was in November.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Lottery players’ second chance to win really big this weekend comes with Saturday’s drawing for a $640 million Powerball top prize. It’s the eighth-largest jackpot ever. And the odds of winning are one in 292.2 million. No one beat the odds for Friday’s $750 Mega Millions top prize. What had marked the fifth-largest-ever jackpot is now estimated to grow to $850 million for Tuesday’s next drawing. That would be the third-largest of all time. It had been nearly two years since a lottery jackpot has grown so large. No one has won either game’s top prize in months.

DETROIT (AP) — One of six men charged in an alleged plot to snatch Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has agreed to plead guilty to a kidnapping conspiracy. A filing about the plea was made by prosecutors ahead of Ty Garbin’s appearance Wednesday in federal court in Grand Rapids. The plea agreement signed by Garbin indicates that he will “fully cooperate” with investigators. There is no agreement on his sentencing guidelines. The FBI in October said it broke up a plot to kidnap the Democratic governor by anti-government extremists upset over her coronavirus restrictions. Six people are charged in federal court in Grand Rapids.

ATLANTA (AP) — Late baseball Hall of Famer Hank Aaron is among several names being considered to replace a Ku Klux Klan member’s name on an Atlanta high school. A school board committee narrowed a list of recommended name changes for Forrest Hill Academy on Wednesday and included two tributes to the Milwaukee and Atlanta Braves right fielder, including Hank Aaron Center of Learning and Growth and Hank Aaron New Beginnings Academy. Aaron died last week at the age of 86. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports the naming committee will meet Feb. 25 to choose a recommendation. Forrest Hill Academy is named after Nathan Bedford Forrest, a Confederate general and Ku Klux Klan leader.

Federal safety officials are investigating people who took part in last week’s riot at the U.S. Capitol to decide whether they belong on the federal no-fly list. The move is one of several that officials outlined Friday. They say they are increasing security at Washington-area airports leading up to next week’s presidential inauguration. The head of the Transportation Security Administration says that includes more police and bomb-detecting dogs, and more federal air marshals on certain flights. Security is routinely tightened for presidential inaugurations, and the urgency was raised after last week’s riot at the U.S. Capitol by supporters of President Donald Trump.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin has named Ross Kolodziej defensive line coach after he served as the program’s head strength and conditioning coach over the last six seasons.

Breckterfield left to take the same position at Vanderbilt on new Commodores coach Clark Lea’s staff. Kolodziej is a former Wisconsin defensive lineman who made 45 career starts and played on the Badgers’ 1998 and 1999 teams that reached the Rose Bowl. He was in the NFL from 2001-07.

Judge says Amazon won't have to restore Parler web service

SEATTLE (AP) – Amazon won’t be forced to restore web service to Parler after a federal judge ruled Thursday against a plea to reinstate the fast-growing social media app favored by followers of former President Donald Trump.
U.S. District Judge Barbara Rothstein in Seattle said she wasn’t dismissing Parler’s “substantive underlying claims” against Amazon but said it fell short in demonstrating the need for an injunction forcing it back online.
Amazon kicked Parler off its web-hosting service last week, and in court filings said the suspension was a “last resort” to block it from harboring violent plans to disrupt the presidential transition.

The NFL expanded the Rooney Rule to give more minority candidates opportunities to become a head coach and reward teams who develop them. More interviews didn’t equal more hirings this offseason. According to an analysis of candidates known to have interviewed for seven head coach openings this month, 11 were minorities and 16 were white. Only two of the seven jobs went to minorities. Some consider it progress but most agree there’s a long way to go.

Aquarium agrees to delay beluga whale delivery amid lawsuit

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut aquarium has agreed to delay its acquisition of five beluga whales for research amid a lawsuit by an animal rights group trying to stop the delivery. Court documents filed last month in federal court in Hartford say Mystic Aquarium will not import the whales before March 31 to allow time for a judge to decide the lawsuit. Friends of Animals filed the lawsuit in September. They say the five belugas would be harmed by the trip from their current home at a Canadian aquarium in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Mystic Aquarium says it has a safe, healthy and spacious environment for the new whales.

"HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A Connecticut aquarium has agreed to delay its acquisition of five beluga whales for research amid a lawsuit by an animal rights group trying to stop the delivery. Court documents filed last month in federal court in Hartford say Mystic Aquarium will not import the whales before March 31 to allow time for a judge to decide the lawsuit. Friends of Animals filed the lawsuit in September. They say the five belugas would be harmed by the trip from their current home at a Canadian aquarium in Niagara Falls, Ontario. Mystic Aquarium says it has a safe, healthy and spacious environment for the new whales.",

Disagreement between Assembly, Senate GOP leaves COVID-19 bill in jeopardy
| null | null |

MADISON (WKOW) - The Assembly was set to take to the floor Thursday and, with its large Republican majority, pass its version of a coronavirus response package. GOP Senators, however, are not on board with the bill according to Senate Majority Leader Devin LeMahieu (R-Oostburg).
“That is not the case," said LeMahieu in a statement. "There is a reason that was an Assembly bill and not a Senate bill.”
The development further exacerbated a divide in state government that leaves the prospect of any new state-funded COVID-19 relief in jeopardy.
The Assembly bill would extend a number of provisions granted in the last bill the state legislature passed in April 2020.
It would continue waiving the one-week waiting period for unemployment applications, extended DWD call center hours, and extended temporary rights for out-of-state health care professionals to work in Wisconsin without a state license.
While those measures aligned with a $100 million "compromise" bill released last month by Democratic Governor Tony Evers, it included provisions Democrats rejected and likely would have led to Evers vetoing the bill.
The controversial measures included a prohibition on employers requiring workers to receive a COVID-19 vaccination, restrictions on how long school boards could implement a move to virtual learning as well as limits on local health departments' ability to close or restrict business capacities, and grant legal immunity to businesses, local governments, and nonprofits.
Assembly Minority Leader Gordon Hintz (D - Oshkosh) said the GOP plan was simply an "exercise for a bill that will not become law."
Assembly Democrats proposed their own relief package, which called for accepted Medicaid expansion money.
While Democrats were not specific on how exactly they'd fund all of the measures, the proposal would have provided money for food, rental, and childcare assistance. Evers did not include those measures in his proposal.
Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) said on the floor during Monday's inauguration that both chambers were on board with the Assembly bill.
"While it was very disappointing the governor walked away from the negotiating table last month, I want to thank our colleagues in the state senate who continued our negotiations," Vos said Monday. "We have a final bill that has been agreed to in both chambers."

Israeli jets hit Hamas targets in Gaza after rockets fired

JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military says its aircraft struck targets in the Gaza Strip in response to two rockets fired from the Palestinian territory. It says fighter jets hit Hamas military targets early on Monday, including sites for digging underground tunnels, some of which stretch into Israel. There were no immediate reports of injuries from the airstrikes. There were also no reports of damage or injury from the rockets launched. Israel and Hamas have fought three wars since the Islamic militant group seized power of the coastal enclave in 2007. There’s been no major confrontation since 2014 but there are often cross-border skirmishes between the sides.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — A Las Vegas professional gambler, real estate mogul and philanthropist who was convicted in an insider trading case says he’s grateful his sentence was commuted by former President Donald Trump. William “Billy” Walters said in a statement that he’ll continue to pursue a lawsuit against federal officials in New York who won his conviction in 2017 in a case that drew headlines for its ties to professional golfer Phil Mickelson. Mickelson was not charged. Walters is now 74. He was released last summer to home confinement in the San Diego area after serving more than half his prison term.

MULTAN, Pakistan (AP) — Pakistan’s security forces have arrested an alleged leader of the militant group that was behind the bloody 2008 Mumbai attacks in India. Pakistani counterterrorism police said Saturday that Zaikur Rehman Lakhvi was seized in the eastern city of Lahore, on terrorism financing charges. Lakhvi is alleged to be a leader of the Lashker-e-Taiba group that organized the Mumbai attacks in 2008 that killed 166 people. Lakhvi was detained days after the Mumbai attacks but released in 2015 by Pakistani courts. Pakitani authorities are now alleging that Lakhvi was running a dispensary in Lahore as a front for financing militant activities.

ROME (AP) — The World Health Organization is denying that Italian officials pressured it to spike a report into Italy’s coronavirus response but says the U.N. agency should have shared the document with the government before publication. The head of WHO’s Europe office sought to explain Thursday WHO’s decision to pull the report from its website a day after it was posted May 13. It already had cleared internal WHO approval protocols and been printed. The report’s spiking has become a headache for WHO and a problem for the Italian government. The document noted that Italy hadn’t updated its influenza pandemic preparedness plan since 2006 and that its initial response to the coronavirus was “improvised, chaotic and creative.”

BARTOW, Fla. (AP) — Authorities say a Florida fire captain accused of stealing COVID-19 vaccines meant for first responders has turned himself in. The Polk County Sheriff’s Office says Polk County Fire Rescue Capt. Anthony Damiano was booked into jail Wednesday on a felony charge of falsifying an official record as a public servant and misdemeanor petit theft. Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said at a press conference Tuesday that paramedic Joshua Colon was arrested Monday for covering up Damiano’s theft. Damiano was free on $1,250 bail. Jail records didn’t list whether he had an attorney who could comment.

It's the first morning of the week where we've woken up without a dense fog advisory. There was still patchy fog across the valley early Friday but the thickest fog remained over Minnesota.
Our strong blocking pattern will remain in place over the weekend. High temperatures will be in the 20s with lows in the teens. It will stay mostly cloudy to overcast throughout the weekend too.
As our blocking high pressure center continues to shift to the west we'll see a pockets of clearing in the clouds. You just might catch a glimpse of sunshine Saturday and Sunday.
Slightly warmer temperatures and a somewhat more active weather pattern is expected by the end of next week. Our next chance for snow looks like it'll be Thursday, but we'll have to see how long it take to wash out this blocking pattern.

SYDNEY (AP) — Australia’s leading medical group says the New South Wales state government has put the rest of the country at risk by its decision not to go hard and early in its response to the COVID-19 outbreak on Sydney’s northern beaches, which is suspected to have also caused new cases in neighboring Victoria state. On Saturday, Victoria recorded 10 new local cases, bringing active cases in the state to 29. Trace testing has linked the new Melbourne coronavirus cluster to the New South Wales outbreak. Australian Medical Association Vice President Chris Moy says the New South Wales government is playing the odds by relying heavily on its contact tracing system instead of imposing a quick lockdown to stop the spread across Sydney.

Pakistan says test-fire of medium-range missile a success

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan’s military says it has successfully test-fired a surface-to-surface medium range ballistic missile. In a statement Wednesday, it said the Shaheen-III missile has a range of 2,750 kilometers (about 1,700 miles). The missile was launched from an undisclosed location. It said the test firing was aimed at “re-validating various design and technical parameters of the weapon system.” Pakistan’s nuclear and missile program is primarily aimed at countering any threat from neighboring India, which also routinely conducts missile tests. Both nations have nuclear arms and have fought three of their two wars over Kashmir since gaining independence from Britain in 1947.

Australian Open tournament director Craig Tiley has ruled out any change in the best-of-five set format for men’s singles matches at the season-opening major as three more COVID-19 cases were reported among the international arrivals for the tournament. There was no immediate indication from health officials that there would be any increase in the 72 players now in hard quarantine and unable to practice. But in good news for players in lockdown, there were suggestions that some may be allowed to leave their rooms for practice before the 14-day hard quarantine finishes.

US unemployment claims jump to 965,000 as virus takes toll

WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of people seeking unemployment aid soared last week to 965,000, the most since late August and evidence that the resurgent virus has caused a spike in layoffs.
The latest figures for jobless claims, issued Thursday by the Labor Department, remain at levels never seen until the virus struck.
Before the pandemic, weekly applications typically numbered around 225,000.
Last spring, after nationwide shutdowns took effect, applications for jobless benefits spiked to nearly 7 million — 10 times the previous record high.
After declining over the summer, weekly claims have been stuck above 700,000 since September.

"WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of people seeking unemployment aid soared last week to 965,000, the most since late August and evidence that the resurgent virus has caused a spike in layoffs.\nThe latest figures for jobless claims, issued Thursday by the Labor Department, remain at levels never seen until the virus struck.\nBefore the pandemic, weekly applications typically numbered around 225,000.\nLast spring, after nationwide shutdowns took effect, applications for jobless benefits spiked to nearly 7 million — 10 times the previous record high.\nAfter declining over the summer, weekly claims have been stuck above 700,000 since September.",

Yellen urges Congress to do more to fight pandemic recession

WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury Secretary nominee Janet Yellen is calling on Congress to do more to fight a deep pandemic-induced recession. In testimony prepared for her Senate confirmation hearing on Tuesday, Yellen says the threats of a longer and even worse downturn are too great to cut back on support now. She says that without further action, the U.S. risks a longer, more painful recession now and long-term scarring of the economy later. Yellen would be the first woman to lead the Treasury Department. She was the nation’s first female chair of the Federal Reserve.

Trump left many clues he wouldn't go quietly

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has never been one to acknowledge he’s lost. By his own words, he hates losing. The storming of the Capitol by his partisans this week was the culmination of months of denials that he was beaten in the election — and his lifetime aversion to acknowledging defeat. The post-election turmoil came as little surprise to experts who’ve watched Trump pull out all the stops to win. For four years Trump has indulged and sometimes encouraged fringe groups, advancing their conspiracy theories. They stepped forward as his foot soldiers on Wednesday when he exhorted them to go to the Capitol and fight.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Legislature convenes for its 2021 regular session Tuesday, and it won’t like anything like normal. The House will meet via Zoom until further notice because of the pandemic. The Senate will try a hybrid approach. And the Capitol will remain surrounded by riot fencing. That’s going to make it a challenge for lawmakers to interact with each other, constituents and advocates for a myriad of causes. With the Capitol mostly closed to the public, phone calls, emails and online meetings will replace most face-to-face work. And that’s going to make it harder for citizens to be heard.

CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — Nicolás Maduro was set to extend his grip on power Tuesday as the ruling socialist party prepared to assume the leadership of Venezuela’s congress. Maduro’s allies swept legislative elections last month boycotted by the opposition and denounced as a sham by the U.S. and several other foreign governments. While the vote was marred by anemically low turnout, it nonetheless seemed to relegate into irrelevancy the U.S.-backed opposition led by lawmaker Juan Guaidó.

BROOKLYN CENTER, Minn. (AP) — Gov. Tim Walz and his health commissioner have visited a community vaccination center to see how a pilot program for giving coronavirus vaccines is going. They say they’re hoping to learn what works and what doesn’t as they try to speed up the pace of vaccinations across Minnesota. The Earle Brown Center in the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center hosts one of several centers that the state is testing. Officials want to see how useful they are for supplementing the clinics and pharmacies they still expect will be the main vaccine providers as supplies slowly ramp up.

What's it like taking an at-home COVID test?
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
EAU CLAIRE (WQOW) - Concerned you may have COVID-19, but don't want to visit the doctor or wait in line at a testing site? Luckily, you can now test yourself with an at-home testing kit. But, what does the whole process actually look like? WQOW reporter McKenna Alexander took one of the tests to find out.
First, you need to request for a test to be sent to you. The first at-home test to be authorized by the FDA's Emergency Use Authorization is made by Vault Health, so that's the one used in this story.
To request a kit, head to vaulthealth.com/covid and click "order a test" before filling out the required information.
You'll be asked to enter your insurance information; your insurance company will foot the bill if you have one. If not, you don't need to enter any information at all; the state will pay for the test.
Seven days after the request was submitted, the test came in the mail. Inside the package, there are two biohazard plastic bags, each with an alcohol prep pad and instruction booklet inside. There's also a UPS laboratory pack, and of course, the COVID test; which is a collection tube, instruction sheet, and a vial of blue liquid.
There's a warning on the inside of the booklet saying not to eat, drink, smoke or chew gum for 30 minutes before collecting the sample.
In order for this test to be processed, the one gathering the sample must be supervised via video chat while collecting it. In this case, Vault Health requested Zoom.
The process of logging on, taking the test, and sealing it took under 20 minutes.
The instruction booklet says when the sample arrives at the lab, it will send an email notification when results are available.
When WQOW gets the results back, this story will be updated with how long it took to receive them.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea has rolled out developmental ballistic missiles designed to be launched from submarines and other military hardware in a massive nighttime parade. The weaponry displays punctuated leader Kim Jong Un’s defiant calls to expand a nuclear and missile program that threatens his Asian rivals and the U.S. State media said Kim took center stage at the parade Thursday night that was held to celebrate the ruling party meeting that ended this week. Kim’s comments on expanding his weapons programs are likely intended to pressure the incoming U.S. government. President-elect Joe Biden has called Kim a “thug” and criticized his summits with President Donald Trump as spectacle that didn’t make meaningful progress.

BERLIN (AP) — A closely-watched annual study by an anti-graft watchdog organization suggests that countries with the least corruption have been best positioned to weather the health and economic challenges of the coronavirus pandemic. Transparency International’s 2020 Corruption Perceptions Index released Thursday concluded that countries that performed well invested more in health care and were “better able to provide universal health coverage and are less likely to violate democratic norms.” Transparency’s chief says: “COVID-19 is not just a health and economic crisis, it is a corruption crisis _ and one that we are currently failing to manage.”

LONDON (AP) — Gerry Marsden, the British singer who was instrumental in turning a song from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “Carousel” into one of the great anthems in the world of football, has died. He was 78. Marsden was the lead singer of the band that found fame in the Merseybeat scene in the 1960s. Though another Liverpool band, The Beatles, reached superstardom, Gerry and the Pacemakers will always have a place in the city’s consciousness because of ’You’ll Never Walk Alone.’ It was adopted by fans of Liverpool soccer club and has been sung with spine-tingling passion during matches.

LONDON (AP) — The leader of Northern Ireland has ordered an independent investigation to give voice to the survivors of church-run homes for unmarried mothers and their babies, saying they have been silenced and shamed for too long. First Minister Arlene Foster’s comments came after the publication Tuesday of a government-commissioned research report that examined institutions for unmarried mothers and their children from the 20th century. The report said more than 10,500 women and girls, including some rape and incest victims, entered such homes from 1922 to 1990. Their babies often were sent to a different home or put up for adoption, and Foster says that too often, the mothers and their children suffered “a lifetime of trauma.”

Roku is buying short-lived streaming service Quibi’s content library to bolster content for its free Roku Channel. Financial terms were undisclosed. Roku built its business as a hub for other streaming services, but recently has been building up the content library for its own channel. Quibi, short for “quick bites,” raised $1.75 billion from investors including major Hollywood players Disney, NBCUniversal and Viacom. But the service struggled to reach viewers, as short videos abound on the internet and the coronavirus pandemic kept many people at home. It announced it was shutting down in October, just months after its April launch.

Testing wristbands, masks signs of a new boss at White House
| null | null |

WASHINGTON (AP) — The clearest sign that there’s a new boss at the White House is the deference being paid to coronavirus public health guidelines. Testing wristbands are in. Mask-wearing is mandatory. Desks are socially distanced. While the Trump administration was known for ignoring public safety guidelines, the Biden team has made a point of adhering to the same strict guidelines they’re counseling Americans to follow to help stem the spread of the virus. It’s part of an overall effort by President Joe Biden to lead by example on the coronavirus pandemic, an ethos that carries over from his campaign and transition.

ST, PAUL, Minn. (AP) — Prosecutors in Ramsey County say a Maplewood man, accused in a fatal hit-and-run, spent hours drinking at a bar before the crash. A criminal complaint filed Thursday charges Robert Kinney with criminal vehicular homicide-leaving the scene in the Jan. 22 crash which killed John Benjamin in St. Paul. Police say the 68-year-old victim was walking near an intersection when he was struck and died at the scene. Investigators say they received an anonymous tip that Kinney was drinking heavily that night at the 5-8 Tavern in Maplewood and that his car matched the description of the one police were seeking.

VIRUS TODAY: More hospital ICUs edge nearer a breaking point

U.S. hospital intensive care units in many parts of the country are straining to handle record numbers of COVID-19 patients. These hospital ICUs take care of the sickest of the sick. Some are running out of space and supplies while scrambling to pay the soaring rates of temporary traveling nurses. Hundreds of ICUs are struggling at the same time, with many clustered in the South and West. An Associated Press analysis shows that since November, the share of U.S. hospitals nearing the breaking point has doubled. More than 40% of Americans live in areas running out of ICU beds. Experts say sustained surges can jeopardize the quality of care in ICUs.

Coronavirus deaths rising in 30 US states amid winter surge

NEW YORK (AP) — Coronavirus deaths are rising in nearly two-thirds of American states as a winter surge pushes the overall toll toward 400,000 amid warnings that a new, highly contagious variant is taking hold. As Americans observed a national holiday Monday, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo pleaded with federal authorities to block travelers from countries where new variants are spreading. He cited new versions detected in Britain, South Africa and Brazil. A vast effort is underway to get Americans vaccinated, but the campaign is off to an uneven start. According to the latest federal data, about 31 million doses of vaccine have been distributed, but fewer than 11 million people have received at least one dose.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Cannes Film Festival, canceled altogether last year by the pandemic, is postponing this year’s edition from May to July in hopes of having an in-person festival. Cannes organizers announced Wednesday that this year’s festival will now take place July 6-17, about two months after its typical period. The French Riviera festival, which had run for nearly 75 years with few interruptions, is currently hoping the coronavirus recedes enough by summertime. Cannes last year first looked at a postponement for its 73rd festival to June or July before ultimately canceling altogether. The festival still went ahead with a selection announcement to celebrate the films it had planned to include in its prestigious lineup.

Trump finally faces reality - amid talk of early ouster

WASHINGTON (AP) — With 12 days left in his term, President Donald Trump has finally bent to reality, acknowledging his electoral defeat amid growing talk in Washington of trying to force him from office early. His statement came at the end of a day when the cornered president stayed out of sight in the White House, silenced on some of his favorite internet lines of communication, while watching the resignations of several top aides, including two Cabinet secretaries. As officials sifted through the aftermath of the pro-Trump mob’s siege of the U.S. Capitol, there was growing discussion Thursday of impeaching him a second time or invoking the 25th Amendment to oust him from the Oval Office.

Biden faces scrutiny over reliance on executive orders

President Joe Biden and aides are showing touches of prickliness amid growing scrutiny of his reliance on executive orders in his first days in office. The president in just over a week has already signed more than three dozen executive orders and directives aimed at addressing the coronavirus pandemic as well as a gamut of other issues, including environmental regulations, immigration policies and racial justice. Biden has also sought to use the orders to erase foundational policy initiatives by former president Donald Trump. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell says Biden’s reliance on executive action in the early going conflicts with the Democrat’s pledge as a candidate to be a consensus builder.

Tennessee inmate's execution paused again due to COVID-19

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Supreme Court has hit pause again on a death row inmate’s scheduled execution because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In an order Tuesday, the court’s justices wrote that Oscar Smith’s Feb. 4 execution will be stayed again pending the court’s further order “because of the multiple issues caused by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.” Smith had been scheduled to die last June for the 1989 slayings of his estranged wife, Judy Lynn Smith, and her two sons from a previous marriage, Chad and Jason Burnett, in Nashville. But because of the coronavirus, the Supreme Court ordered a delay until next month. The court did not set a new date in its order on Tuesday.

A high-ranking official with the Hawaii Republican Party has resigned after posting a series of tweets about the QAnon conspiracy theory on the official party account. Edwin Boyette confirmed Monday that he resigned a day earlier. He posted Saturday that QAnon adherents should not be mocked or ridiculed for their beliefs because they stem from patriotism and love of country. Some QAnon believers were among those that stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Democratic Hawaii Gov. David Ige said at a Monday news conference said he doesn’t understand how anyone that adheres to those beliefs are really doing it because they’re patriotic.

GENEVA (AP) — Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter spent a week in an induced coma after having heart surgery in December. His family has revealed details of his health scare for the first time. The 84-year-old Blatter was well enough only this week to be moved out of intensive care at the hospital in Switzerland. His daughter says doctors are satisfied with his progress “but there’s still a long way to go.” Blatter also tested positive for COVID-19 late last year. Corinne Blatter Andenmatten says her father has not been told that FIFA filed a further criminal complaint against him last month.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The FBI says a heavy metal guitarist who was photographed with the mob that stormed the U.S. Capitol and is accused of spraying police officers with a pepper-based bear spray irritant has been arrested. The agency says Jon Ryan Schaffer turned himself in Sunday after he was featured on an FBI poster seeking the public’s help in identifying rioters. He’s a member of the band “Iced Earth.” He’s has been charged with several felony counts, including engaging in an act of physical violence and knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted building or grounds without lawful entry. It wasn’t immediately known if the central Indiana native had a lawyer who could speak on his behalf.

VATICAN CITY (AP) — The Vatican says Pope Francis has accepted the resignation of the Minsk’ archbishop who had been blocked for months by Belarusian authorities from returning to his homeland after criticizing a crackdown on anti-government protesters there. Monsignor Tadeusz Kondrusiewicz, in charge of the Minsk-Mohilev diocese, had only returned to Belarus on Dec. 24, just in time to celebrate Christmas Mass. That was nearly four months after he was blocked entry while traveling back from a religious visit to Poland. The impasse ended last month after Francis sent a former Vatican ambassador to Belarus to Minsk to meet with authoritarian President Alexander Lukashenko. The Vatican announced the resignation on Sunday.

MADISON (WKOW) -- Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC), Wisconsin Department of Revenue (DOR) and Governor Evers announced because of the We're All In grants, local small businesses received approximately $240 million last year.
The grants aided nearly 55,000 of the state's small business that were affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the WEDC, this was the largest direct-aid program for small businesses in their history.
“Wisconsin’s small businesses have exemplified remarkable resilience throughout this pandemic, finding new, innovative ways to keep the doors open and the lights on. But it wasn’t easy and I am glad we were able to provide this critically needed support,” said Gov. Evers.
He continued, “We aren’t out of the woods just yet and it is vital that we continue to support our local businesses and their employees to help them get through these tough times.”
The funds for the We're All In grants came from the federal CARES Act and were issued to Wisconsin small business in three phases.

WATCH LIVE at noon: Congress certifies Electoral College votes
| null | null |
wqow.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s extraordinary effort to overturn the presidential election is going before Congress.
Lawmakers are set to convene Wednesday for a joint session, required by law, to confirm the Electoral College vote won by Joe Biden.
The typically routine proceeding will be anything but that. The president’s Republican allies plan to object to the election results. Many say they are heeding the pleas of the president's supporters’ to “fight for Trump.”
Trump is planning a rally outside the White House.
The longshot effort is all but certain to fail. Bipartisan majorities in Congress are prepared to accept the results.
Here's a look at how it will play out according to CNN:
What’s supposed to happen?
Under federal law, Jan. 6 is the date Electoral College votes determining the next president are counted in a joint session of Congress beginning at 12 p.m. CT.
The process is presided over by the president of the Senate — in this case, Vice President Mike Pence.
The vice president opens the states' sealed certificates in alphabetical order and hands them to one of four "tellers" — a Republican and a Democrat from each chamber of Congress who review the certificates and announce the states' votes.
The process continues uninterrupted until all the votes are announced and counted — unless there's a recognized objection.
Which objections are recognized?
For an objection to a state's vote to be considered, it has to be a written document signed by at least one member of the House and one from the Senate.
What happens then?
If there's a recognized objection to a state's vote, the vote counting is halted while both chambers go their separate ways and have up to two hours of debate on it. They then vote on whether to sustain the objection and dismiss the state's votes.
For a state's vote to be dismissed, majorities of both houses have to vote to sustain the objection. If one chamber votes to toss the state's votes and the other doesn't, the objection is dismissed.
After the objection is voted on, the joint congressional session reconvenes and continues with the count. If there's another formal objection to a different state's vote, the process is repeated.

HOUSTON (AP) — Court records show a woman was charged with aggravated robbery for allegedly stealing a $10,000 bulldog from a Houston-area pet shop. Royshana King is accused of snatching the dog on Nov. 4 from Bully Kamp, a family-owned specialty pet supply store near Aldine, Texas, about 14 miles north of Houston. Harris County court documents show 21-year-old King was arrested and charged last Wednesday with aggravated robbery involving a deadly weapon. An employee, Alize James, chased the woman and the man who sped off with the 7-month old dog. James told the Houston Chronicle she ended up on the hood of the car during the chase because the man driving tried to run her over.

U.S. hospital intensive care units in many parts of the country are straining under record numbers of COVID-19 patients. These hospital units take care of the sickest of the sick. Some are running out of space and supplies, while scrambling to pay the soaring rates of temporary traveling nurses. Hundreds of ICUs are struggling at the same time, with many clustered in the South and West. An Associated Press analysis shows that since November, the share of U.S. hospitals nearing the breaking point has doubled. More than 40% of Americans live in areas running out of ICU beds. Experts say sustained surges can jeopardize the quality of care in ICUs.

Trump's made-up claims of fake Georgia votes
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
President Donald Trump put forth a dizzying array of fuzzy accounting and outright false claims in an extraordinary phone call to Georgia’s secretary of state seeking a reversal of his election defeat, fabricating a slew of votes that he said should’ve been counted in his favor.
In the hourlong conversation Saturday with Georgia’s secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, Trump suggested that the Republican “find” enough votes to hand Trump the victory.
The Associated Press obtained the full audio of Trump’s conversation with Georgia officials from a person on the call. The AP has a policy of not amplifying disinformation and unproven allegations. The AP plans to post the full audio as it annotates a transcript with fact check material.
A look at Trump’s claims on the call and how they compare with reality:
TRUMP: “If we can go over some of the numbers, I think it’s pretty clear we won, we won very substantially in Georgia.”
THE FACTS: No, Trump lost Georgia in an election the state has certified for Democrat Joe Biden. Republican election officials have affirmed the election was conducted and counted fairly.
With ballots counted three times, including once by hand, Georgia’s certified totals show Trump lost to Biden by 11,779 votes out of nearly 5 million cast. Raffensperger certified the totals with officials saying they’ve found no evidence that Trump won.
No credible claims of fraud or systemic errors have been sustained. Judges have turned away legal challenges to the results, although at least one is still pending in state court.
___
TRUMP: “People should be happy to have an accurate count… We have other states I believe will be flipping to us shortly.”
THE FACTS: No reversal of the election outcome is in the offing, in Georgia or other states.
Biden defeated Trump by some 7 million popular votes nationwide and by a tally of 306-232 in the Electoral College, achieving victory in other key states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Arizona.
Trump’s former attorney general, William Barr, found no evidence of widespread election fraud. Trump’s allegations of massive voting fraud have been dismissed by a succession of judges and refuted by state election officials and an arm of his own administration’s Homeland Security Department.
A group of Senate Republicans, led by Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, say they plan to object to the election results when Congress meets on Wednesday to tally Biden’s Electoral College victory over Trump.
The objections will force votes in both the House and Senate, but none are expected to prevail.

TRUMP: “The other thing, dead people. So dead people voted. And I think the number is in the — close to 5,000 people. And they went to obituaries. They went to all sorts of methods to come up with an accurate number. And a minimum is close to about 5,000 voters.”
THE FACTS: Not true. Georgia officials have debunked previous claims by the Trump campaign in November that three particular people had voted illegally, finding that other people with similar names had voted. At the time, a local district attorney announced an investigation into whether a ballot had illegally been cast in the name of a northwest Georgia man who died in 2015.
On Saturday, Raffensperger said two illegal votes on behalf of dead people have been confirmed, not thousands as Trump alleged. “The actual number were two. Two. Two people that were dead that voted. And so that’s wrong,” Raffensperger said.
___
TRUMP: “We have anywhere from 250 (thousand) to 300,000 ballots were dropped mysteriously into the rolls, much of that had to do with Fulton County, which hasn’t been checked.”
THE FACTS: There’s nothing mysterious or suspect about it. He is describing a legitimate vote counting process, not a sudden surge of malfeasance.
Trump appears to be referring to large numbers of votes that were tabulated in the early hours of Wednesday morning after Election Day and later. The arrival of those votes was not mysterious, but expected, because many of Georgia’s 159 counties had large stacks of mail-in ballots that had to be tabulated after polls closed and in-person ballots were counted.
Indeed, news organizations and officials had warned in the days leading up to the election that the results would likely come in just as they did: In-person votes, which tend to be counted more quickly, would likely favor the president, who had spent months warning his supporters to avoid mail-in voting and to vote in person either early or on Election Day.
And mail-in-ballots, which take longer to count since they must be removed from envelopes and verified before they are counted, would favor Biden. States tend to count mail-in ballots at the end of the process.
___
TRUMP: “We think … if (there is) a real check of signatures going back in Fulton County, you’ll find at least a couple of hundred thousand of forged signatures.”
THE FACTS: That has no basis in reality.
It would be impossible for anyone to have forged hundreds of thousands of signatures on mail-in ballots in Fulton County because there were only about 147,000 mail-in ballots in Georgia’s most populous county, with about 116,000 of them going to Biden.
___
TRUMP, claiming thousands of voters moved out of Georgia, registered in another state, and then improperly cast ballots in Georgia: “They came back in, and they voted. That was a large number.”
THE FACTS: Not so. Trump supporters are working from a list of questionable accuracy, according to Ryan Germany, the general counsel for Raffensperger’s office. He told Trump during the call that the claims have been investigated and that in many cases, voters “moved back years ago. It’s not like it happened just before the election. There’s something about that data that it’s just not accurate.”
___
TRUMP: “It doesn’t pass the smell test, because we hear they’re shredding thousands and thousands of ballots and now what they’re saying (is) ‘Oh, we’re just cleaning up the office.’”
THE FACTS: The shredding in question was taking place in suburban Cobb County, not in Fulton County as Trump claimed. Cobb County elections officials said Nov. 24 that none of the items shredded by a contractor were “relevant to the election or the re-tally” and instead were things like old mailing labels, other papers with voter information, old emails and duplicates of absentee ballot applications.
___
TRUMP, claiming that a Fulton County election worker fed ballots through a machine three times instead of only once, saying his campaign would release a video proving it: “It can’t be disputed. We have a version that you haven’t seen, but it’s magnified. It’s magnified and you can see everything. For some reason, they put it in three times each ballot. And I don’t know why, I don’t know why three times and not five times, right?”
THE FACTS: There was no double or triple tallying of ballots. Raffensperger noted that ballots in Georgia have been counted and then recounted twice more for accuracy, including once by hand, and no discrepancy showed up in the Fulton County ballots, as it would have if someone improperly counted votes multiple times. “We did an audit of that,” Raffensperger told Trump. “It was proved conclusively that they were not scanned three times.”
___
TRUMP, attacking a legal settlement that Georgia signed with the state Democratic Party over how signatures on absentee ballot applications and absentee ballots are verified. “You can’t check signatures, you can’t do that… You’re allowed to do harvesting, I guess, in that agreement. That agreement is a disaster for this country.”
THE FACTS: There is nothing in the March 6 consent decree that prevents Georgia’s election clerks from scrutinizing signatures. The legal settlement addresses accusations about a lack of statewide standards for judging signatures on absentee ballot envelopes. Raffensperger has said that not only is it entirely possible to match signatures, but that the state requires it.
Ballot harvesting, the practice of collecting numbers of absentee ballots and delivering them back to elections officials, remains illegal in Georgia.
___
TRUMP, referring to investigations into his baseless claims of voter fraud: “You have your never-Trumper U.S. attorney there.”
THE FACTS: The U.S. attorney in Atlanta is a actually a Trump appointee. Byung J. “BJay” Pak is a longtime Republican who also served in the Georgia House of Representatives from 2011 until 2017. He was nominated by Trump to become the U.S. attorney for the Northern District of Georgia in 2017. In announcing his nomination, the White House said that Pak and five other nominees for U.S. attorney’s posts “share the president’s vision for ‘Making America Safe Again.’” Pak had previously also worked as an assistant U.S. attorney.
___
TRUMP, citing 18,000 “suspicious” votes: “The tape that’s been shown all over the world … they said very clearly there was a major water main break. Everybody fled the area and then they came back … there were no Republican poll watchers … and there was no law enforcement … It was stuffed with votes. They weren’t in an official voter box, they were in what looked to be in suitcases or trunks. … The minimum number it could be … was 18,000 ballots, all for Biden.”
THE FACTS: That’s a gross distortion of what actually happened.
State and Fulton County election officials say surveillance video that Trump refers shows no improper behavior, but normal ballot processing using not suitcases, but ballot containers on wheels. Officials said that the entire video showed the same workers had earlier packed the ballot containers with valid, uncounted ballots.
Republicans have contended that their observers were told to leave Fulton County’s vote counting center, but elections officials said they actually left after confusion that arose because election workers thought they were done for the night.
An independent monitor and an investigator in fact oversaw the vote count, according to state and county officials. Trump also refers to a fake confession attributed by a woman allegedly involved in the incident that was posted on social media.
___
TRUMP: “In other states we think we found tremendous corruption with Dominion machines, but we’ll have to see.”
THE FACTS: No “tremendous corruption” has been found.
There’s “no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes or was in any way compromised,” said the federal agency that oversees election security, in a statement joined by state and electoral-industry officials.

"President Donald Trump put forth a dizzying array of fuzzy accounting and outright false claims in an extraordinary phone call to Georgia’s secretary of state seeking a reversal of his election defeat, fabricating a slew of votes that he said should’ve been counted in his favor.\nIn the hourlong conversation Saturday with Georgia’s secretary of state, Brad Raffensperger, Trump suggested that the Republican “find” enough votes to hand Trump the victory.\nThe Associated Press obtained the full audio of Trump’s conversation with Georgia officials from a person on the call. The AP has a policy of not amplifying disinformation and unproven allegations. The AP plans to post the full audio as it annotates a transcript with fact check material.\nA look at Trump’s claims on the call and how they compare with reality:\nTRUMP: “If we can go over some of the numbers, I think it’s pretty clear we won, we won very substantially in Georgia.”\nTHE FACTS: No, Trump lost Georgia in an election the state has certified for Democrat Joe Biden. Republican election officials have affirmed the election was conducted and counted fairly.\nWith ballots counted three times, including once by hand, Georgia’s certified totals show Trump lost to Biden by 11,779 votes out of nearly 5 million cast. Raffensperger certified the totals with officials saying they’ve found no evidence that Trump won.\nNo credible claims of fraud or systemic errors have been sustained. Judges have turned away legal challenges to the results, although at least one is still pending in state court.\n___\nTRUMP: “People should be happy to have an accurate count… We have other states I believe will be flipping to us shortly.”\nTHE FACTS: No reversal of the election outcome is in the offing, in Georgia or other states.\nBiden defeated Trump by some 7 million popular votes nationwide and by a tally of 306-232 in the Electoral College, achieving victory in other key states such as Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Arizona.\nTrump’s former attorney general, William Barr, found no evidence of widespread election fraud. Trump’s allegations of massive voting fraud have been dismissed by a succession of judges and refuted by state election officials and an arm of his own administration’s Homeland Security Department.\nA group of Senate Republicans, led by Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, say they plan to object to the election results when Congress meets on Wednesday to tally Biden’s Electoral College victory over Trump.\nThe objections will force votes in both the House and Senate, but none are expected to prevail.\n___\nTRUMP: “The other thing, dead people. So dead people voted. And I think the number is in the — close to 5,000 people. And they went to obituaries. They went to all sorts of methods to come up with an accurate number. And a minimum is close to about 5,000 voters.”\nTHE FACTS: Not true.

Netanyahu courts Arab voters in election-year turnabout

JERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has spent much of his long career casting Israel’s Arab minority as a potential fifth column led by terrorist sympathizers. Now, he’s openly courting their support as he seeks reelection. Few Arabs are likely to heed his call. But the relative absence of incitement against the community in this campaign and the potential breakup of an Arab party alliance could dampen turnout. At the same time, given the complexities of Israel’s coalition system, a breakaway Arab party could gain outsized influence if it were willing to work with Netanyahu or other traditionally hostile leaders.

PARIS (AP) — The French government has pledged to toughen laws on the rape of children after a massive online movement has seen hundreds of victims share accounts about sexual abuse within their families. The move comes in the wake of child abuse accusations involving a prominent French political expert. France’s justice minister said Thursday the government will soon present new legal measures to better protect children, while a draft bill has started being debated at the Senate to toughen laws on the rape of children under 13. The social media campaign was launched Saturday by activists in reference to the #MeToo movement.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal law enforcement officials are examining a number of threats aimed at members of Congress as the second trial of former President Donald Trump nears. That’s according to a U.S. official briefed on the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on Sunday. Part of the concern is ominous chatter about killing legislators or attacking them outside of the U.S. Capitol. The threats and concern armed protesters could return to the Capitol have prompted federal law enforcement officials to insist that thousands of National Guard troops remain in Washington in the coming weeks. Trump’s Senate trial on a charge of inciting a violent insurrection is set to begin the week of Feb. 8.

Yemen's central bank dismisses UN corruption allegations

CAIRO (AP) — Yemen’s central bank has dismissed United Nations allegations that the country’s government misused millions of dollars from Saudi Arabia to buy essential commodities for the Yemeni people. A report by a panel of U.N. experts released to the media this week accused the internationally recognized government of implementing a scheme to illegally divert to traders $423 million in Saudi money. The report says the funds were meant to buy rice and other supplies for Yemenis who have been suffering from six years of war. The conflict between a Saudi-led coalition supporting the internationally recognized government and the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels has been catastrophic for Yemen.

Biden faces challenge in guiding American past Trump era
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
WASHINGTON (AP) — Joe Biden has already been preparing for months to take on a series of historic crises — a pandemic that’s killed at least 373,000 Americans and a sluggish economy that’s left millions jobless. He’s has talked about the need for bipartisan action and unity among Americans to address these challenges. But the armed insurrection at the U.S. Capitol last week sparked by President Donald Trump’s false allegations of voter fraud and attempts at delegitimizing Biden’s win raised fresh questions about how exactly Biden will achieve that unity in a nation so deeply divided. His best bet to achieve that unity _ or move in that direction _ may be to get real results with the coronavirus pandemic and the economy.

His best bet to achieve that unity _ or move in that direction _ may be to get real results with the coronavirus pandemic and the economy.",

…MIXED WINTRY PRECIPITATION EXPECTED LATE TONIGHT THROUGH EARLY
SUNDAY MORNING…
.Freezing drizzle is expected to develop over western Minnesota
late tonight and slowly spread eastward overnight into Saturday
morning into eastern Minnesota and far western Wisconsin. Most of
central through southern Minnesota into western Wisconsin will
then see freezing drizzle continue for much of the day, followed
by a transition to light snow during the late afternoon and
evening hours Saturday. The light snow will then continue through
Saturday night and diminish after daybreak Sunday morning.
Icing amounts will range from a trace to a few hundredths of an
inch in eastern Minnesota and western Wisconsin to near a tenth
of an inch in western Minnesota. In addition, snow accumulations
will generally run in the 1 to 2 inch range, although isolated
locations in far southern Minnesota into southwestern Wisconsin
may receive near 3 inches of snow.
The combination of icing plus light snow necessitates a Winter
Weather Advisory for all of central and southern Minnesota along
with St. Croix, Pierce and Pepin counties in western Wisconsin.
* WHAT…Mixed precipitation expected. Total snow accumulations of
up to two inches and ice accumulations of a few hundredths of an
inch.

Bolsonaro's tough 2021 balance between ideology, pragmatism

BRASILIA (AP) — Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro survived 2020 in surprisingly good shape. He’s popular despite a pandemic that has killed nearly 200,000 of his countrymen. But the new year bring risks on all sides for the populist who has fought to limit environmental protections and rein in leftist influence. COVID-19 deaths are surging. The president’s sons face corruption investigations. He has no firm block of support in congress. And he’s losing his main international ally with the exit of U.S. President Donald Trump. Most damaging is the expiration of an aid program that has helped fend off hunger for tens of millions of Brazilians.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — A convicted firebrand cleric who inspired the Bali bombers and other violent extremists has walked free from an Indonesian prison after completing his sentence for funding the training of Islamic militants. Police said they would continue to monitor the activities of Abu Bakar Bashir, who is now 82 and ailing. His son said Bashir would be avoiding activities outside his family due to the coronavirus. Bashir was the spiritual leader of the al-Qaida-linked Jemaah Islamiyah network behind the 2002 bombings on the tourist island of Bali that killed 202 people, mostly foreign tourists, including 88 Australians. Indonesian authorities struggled to prove his involvement, and Bashir was imprisoned in 2011 for his links to a militant training camp.

AP VoteCast: Competing coalitions define GA Senate races

WASHINGTON (AP) — Georgia’s Senate runoff elections were a clash of two closely matched coalitions, with Democrat Raphael Warnock edging out his rival in the one-time Republican stronghold. Warnock and fellow Democrat Jon Ossoff — whose race is still too early to call — were relying on the backing of Black voters, younger voters, people earning less than $50,000 and newcomers to the state. That’s according to AP VoteCast, a survey of voters in Tuesday’s high-stakes Senate contests. The Republican coalition backing Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue was the mirror opposite: white, older, wealthier and longtime Georgia residents.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) — Fearing the loss of their livelihoods under the continuing lockdown some small business owners in Poland are planning to challenge the anti-COVID-19 restrictions and reopen their restaurants and tourist facilities, despite government warnings. They argue that the government subventions and tax exemptions designed to help business survive and preserve jobs are not enough, or miss the target. After the government extended the lockdown through January, highlanders in the south and many restaurateurs across Poland are planning to open housing facilities, ski lifts and eateries next week. In response, the minister for development, Jaroslaw Gowin, said Friday they would be cut from tens of billions of zlotys ($ billions) in aid.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Portland, Oregon, Mayor Ted Wheeler says the ongoing criminal destruction and violence occurring in his city, which has been the epicenter of protests against racial injustice for eight months, is “unacceptable.” At a news conference Monday, Wheeler said he’d filed a police report about an “incident” that happened to him, but he didn’t elaborate. Later his office said in a statement the mayor filed a police report over something that happened Sunday evening. Wheeler, who was reelected in November, has been targeted before by left-wing demonstrators, including some who smashed windows and set fires inside his condo building.

PUTNAM VALLEY, N.Y. (AP) — New York’s parks commissioner says he’s trying to figure out if the state is obligated to keep former President Donald Trump’s name on undeveloped state parkland in the New York City suburbs. Commissioner Erik Kulleseid told lawmakers he’s received frequent emails about rebranding Donald J. Trump State Park in Putnam Valley. A 2006 agreement says the park must bear Trump’s name in exchange for his donating the land. But Kulleseid told a legislative budget hearing Wednesday that the condition is not in the deed and it’s unclear if it’s binding. A message seeking comment was sent to the Trump Organization.
