      Trump in Even More Legal Hot Water After Lying to Judge

      Former President Donald Trump appears to have lied in sworn court records, opening him up to severe sanctions by a New York judge who has already lost his patience and threatened to punish him before. Trump claimed he wasn't the president of the Trump Organization during his four years at the White House, despite previously testifying that he was an “inactive president.” On Tuesday, the New York Attorney General's Office asked Justice Arthur F. Engoron to intervene quickly to ensure that the former president still faces a trial later this year that could bankrupt his company.

      Researcher Thinks He Solved Bigfoot Mystery, And You Can Do The Math, Too

      A data scientist thinks he's solved the mystery of Bigfoot ― not by searching for the creature out in the wilds, but by examining the math instead. In a new preprint study published online in bioRxiv, data analyst Floe Foxon says many sightings could actually be black bears, which can be roughly the size and shape of a Sasquatch when walking on their hind legs. He's even come up with a simple formula: Sasquatch sightings were statistically significantly associated with bear populations such that, on the average, one 'sighting' is expected for every 900 bears.

      Crimea will never again be part of Ukraine - Croatian president

      Crimea, the Black Sea peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014, will never again be part of Ukraine, Croatian President Zoran Milanovic said on Monday in remarks detailing his objection to Zagreb providing military aid to Kyiv. In December, Croatian lawmakers rejected a proposal that the country join a European Union mission in support of the Ukrainian military, reflecting deep divisions between Milanovic and Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic. A vocal critic of Western policy in Ukraine, Milanovic has said he does not want his country, the EU's newest member state, to face what he has called potentially disastrous consequences over the 11-month-old war in Ukraine.

      MAGA-boosting radio host John Fredericks has turned on Donald Trump, telling the former president in no uncertain terms on Tuesday that “nobody cares” about his petty media feuds and “grievances” anymore.

      Tiny radioactive capsule lost in Australian outback carries the equivalent of 10 X-ray blasts as fears mount it could be picked up by passing traffic

      Australian authorities and mining giant Rio Tinto are scrambling to find a small radioactive capsule lost somewhere along a near-900-mile stretch of road in the outback. The casing of the capsule contains cesium-137—a substance that researchers have found has a life span of more than three decades. According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, cesium-137 (Cs-137) can cause burns, acute radiation sickness, and even death.

      Chicago prosecutor dropping R. Kelly sex-abuse charges

      A Chicago prosecutor said Monday that she's dropping sex-abuse charges against singer R. Kelly following federal convictions in two courts that should guarantee the disgraced R&B star will be locked up for decades. Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx announced the decision a day ahead of a hearing related to state charges accusing him of sexually abusing four people, three of whom were minors. Foxx, who in 2019 had pleaded with women and girls to come forward so she could pursue charges against Kelly, acknowledged that the decision “may be disappointing” to his accusers.

      In Haiti, gangs take control as democracy withers

      Cherizier, best known by his childhood nickname Barbecue, has become the most recognized name in Haiti. Internationally, he's known as Haiti's most powerful and feared gang leader, sanctioned by the United Nations for “serious human rights abuses,” and the man behind a fuel blockade that brought the Caribbean nation to its knees late last year. At a time when democracy has withered in Haiti and gang violence has spiraled out of control, it's armed men like Cherizier that are filling the power vacuum left by a crumbling government.

      Donald Trump Insults Stormy Daniels' Appearance As Hush-Money Probe Reignites

      Former President Donald Trump took a personal shot at porn star Stormy Daniels after a Manhattan grand jury reportedly began hearing evidence on the alleged hush money he paid her. The grand jury hearing could lead to criminal charges against Trump years after he was accused of paying off the adult film actor to stay silent about their alleged affair before the 2016 election. District Attorney Alvin Bragg's re-escalation of the seemingly dormant probe infuriated Trump on Truth Social and he couldn't resist a demeaning remark about Daniels.

      Southwest Makes a Major Change to Its Boarding Process

      As the week between Christmas and New Year's went on, more than 16,700 flights were impacted, which could end up costing Southwest $825 million, at least. The delays were due to a number of factors, but several critics have charged that the main factors were due to executives' unwillingness to spend enough money to recruit a new generation of pilots (to make up for people who retired early in the pandemic) and to upgrade its flight scheduling software, instead opting to give executives bonuses and shareholder dividends.

      Russia warns United States: the end of nuclear arms control may be nigh

      LONDON (Reuters) -Russia told the United States on Monday that the last remaining pillar of bilateral nuclear arms control could expire in 2026 without a replacement due to what it said were U.S. efforts to inflict "strategic defeat" on Moscow in Ukraine. Both Russia and the United States still have vast arsenals of nuclear weapons which are currently partially limited by the 2011 New START Treaty, which in 2021 was extended until 2026. What comes after Feb. 4, 2026, however, is unclear, though Washington has indicated it wants to reach a follow-on agreement with Russia.

    • “Streaming is beginning to look an awful lot like the old-fashioned analogue TV it was supposed to replace.”

    • “Streaming isn’t going away … You’re still going to have a lot of choice for a long time.”

    • “In the future, [streaming] likely will cost more, have a little less library content and cancel more shows more quickly.”

    • “Streaming is still a game of content … It’s not a matter of who’s spending more, it’s who’s spending smartly.”

    • “Streamers are retreating from any sort of creative risk in favor of humdrum, lowest-common-denominator shows.”
