      Trump trashes Obamacare as Democrats plan its defense

      President-elect Donald Trump speaks during a rally in Mobile, Ala., last month. As Congressional Republicans prepare to repeal Obamacare, President-elect Donald Trump is reminding his Twitter followers that some Democrats, including former President Bill Clinton, have criticized President Barack Obama’s signature health care law. “People must remember that ObamaCare just doesn’t work, and it is not affordable,” Trump tweeted early Tuesday.

      Julian Assange: ‘Who knows’ if WikiLeaks emails swayed U.S. election?

      WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange claimed in a new interview that he is completely confident that the Russian government was not the source of the hacked emails that his organization released leading up to the U.S. presidential election. The publisher of classified and private information released embarrassing emails from Hillary Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta, and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Inside the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, Fox News political pundit Sean Hannity asked Assange to address the allegation that WikiLeaks was a tool employed by Moscow to interfere with the U.S. election.

      The Continental began as a one-off prototype in 1938, personally designed for Edsel Ford, president of his namesake company. Lincoln’s on-again, off-again flagship has been “off” since 2002. For baby boomers, the Continental is probably best known as the suicide-door convertible in which President Kennedy was assassinated in 1963.

      At least 37 people have suffered non-life-threatening injuries in a New York City commuter train derailment on Wednesday during peak morning commuting hours, city officials said. Dozens of emergency crews swarmed Atlantic Terminal in the borough of Brooklyn after the Long Island Railroad train went off the tracks at about 8:30 a.m. local time inside the busy transportation hub, the New York City Fire Department said. The nature of the injuries was not immediately known, and the incident was under investigation, police Detective Ahmed Nasser said.

      More than 150 inmates escape in Philippine jail raid

      Suspected Muslim rebels staged the Philippines' biggest jailbreak Wednesday when they stormed a dilapidated jail in the violence-plagued south of the country, freeing 158 inmates and killing a guard, authorities said. The attack added to a long history of daring jailbreaks in the southern Philippines, home to a decades-old Muslim separatist insurgency as well as extremist gangs that have recently declared allegiance to the Islamic State group. More than 100 armed men believed to have been led by a local Muslim guerrilla commander attacked the jail in Kidapawan city about 1:00am in what appeared to be a well-planned raid to free fellow rebels, jail authorities said.

      A Texas lawmaker who was struck in the head by a stray bullet on New Year’s Eve plans to introduce a bill aimed at preventing celebratory gunfire. “If my legislation could help save a life, you know, then definitely that’s what we’re gonna be looking at doing,” Rep. Armando Martinez, a Democrat from Weslaco, Texas, told the Texas Tribune on Monday in a phone interview from the Valley Baptist Medical Center, where he was recovering. Martinez was watching New Year’s Eve fireworks with family and friends in a residential neighborhood when he was struck.

      Re-print of Hitler's 'Mein Kampf' takes Germany by storm

      Sales of Adolf Hitler's "Mein Kampf" have soared since a special edition of the Nazi leader's political treatise went on sale in Germany a year ago, the German publisher has said. The book outlines Hitler's ideology that formed the basis for Nazism and sets out his hatred of Jews, which led to the Holocaust. Hitler wrote "Mein Kampf", which translates as "My Struggle" in English, between 1924 and 1926.

With newly elected men and women in attendance, Ryan, 46, said it’s easy to question the durability of the republic when caught in tempestuous, hard-fought elections, like those the U.S. witnessed mere months ago. Well, it turns out it does,” Ryan said.

      Mexican leader defends fuel price hike

      Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto defended on Wednesday a steep increase in gasoline prices but said he understood people's "anger" against the measure, as protests entered a fourth day. Pena Nieto said the 20.1 percent increase in the cost of a liter of gasoline was necessary due to a rise in global oil prices. Mexicans have held protests and blocked highways every day since the measure was implemented on January 1.

      In his annual New Years speech to the North Korean people, Kim Jong-un announced that his military was in final preparations to test an intercontinental ballistic missile. The missile is meant to reach the United States with a nuclear warhead, extending the North's deterrence strategy to directly threaten America. In response, President-Elect Donald Trump has vowed the test will not happen.

      Leisure travel colossus Carnival Corporation is putting a spin on technology used at Disney World to turn cruise ships into what it bills as smart cities at sea. Carnival on Tuesday introduced an "Ocean Medallion" designed to tailor trips to individual passengers by learning their tastes and on-board habits, and even keeping track of roaming children. Capable of whispering wirelessly to a web of on-board sensors, the medallions are designed to help cruise operators anticipate guests' needs, making note of a favorite wine, say, and prompting suggestions as the journey progresses, according to Nytec, the US company behind the technology.

Behind the Modisettes, however, Garrett Wilhelm failed to notice that the cars around him had slowed. Wilhelm's Toyota 4Runner collided with the Modisette's Camry doing 65 miles per hour, causing the sedan to lurch forward and spin 180 degrees.

The Cormorant, billed as a flying car, is capable of transporting 500kg (around half a tonne) of weight and travelling at 185 km (115 miles) per hour. "Just imagine a dirty bomb in a city and chemical substance of something else and this vehicle can come in robotically, remotely piloted, come into a street and decontaminate an area," Urban Aeronautics founder and CEO Rafi Yoeli told Reuters.

      Scientists disprove global warming took a break

      A reported pause in global warming between 1998 and 2014 was false, according to US-British research published Wednesday that confirmed the findings of a controversial US study on ocean warming. Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, and the University of York, England, corroborated the results of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) research paper in 2015. The NOAA paper had shown ocean buoys now used to measure water temperatures tend to report slightly cooler temperatures than older ship-based systems.

      Obama moves to stop Trump gutting signature healthcare law

      US President Barack Obama will make a short but politically charged trip from the White House to Capitol Hill Wednesday, calling allied lawmakers to arms in defense of his signature healthcare reforms. Obama's eight-year drive to extend medical coverage to tens of millions of Americans will come under sustained assault when President-elect Donald Trump takes office January 20 with Republican majorities in both house of Congress. In a preemptive strike, the outgoing president will meet Senate and House Democrats, "principally (to) discuss how to counter the stated Republican objective of repealing the Affordable Care Act," said White House spokesman Josh Earnest.

      To say Faraday Future has gotten off to a rocky start over the past couple of years may be the understatement of the year, and it’s only January. The company debuted its FFZERO1 concept supercar amid a whirlwind of buzz at CES 2016, but the press quickly dismissed the car as vapor. A year full of turmoil with Faraday’s main financier, lawsuits filed by vendors alleging millions in unpaid bills, and numerous top-level executive departures cast further doubt on the company’s future.

      Four children are dead and six people have been hospitalized in North Texas in what is believed to be a tragic case of accidental pesticide poisoning. Amarillo fire officials said Monday that a pest control chemical sprayed under a home likely formed deadly phosphine gas when someone attempted to wash it away with water.
