      U.S. spymaster says evidence on Russian hacking has only gotten stronger

      Director of National Intelligence James Clapper listens to questions while testifying alongside Adm. Michael Rogers, director of the National Security Agency, right, before a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing Thursday on foreign cyberthreats. The country’s top intelligence official set down a marker for President-elect Donald Trump Thursday, saying that evidence the Russian government sought to interfere in the U.S. election had only gotten stronger in recent months and included a “multifaceted campaign” of propaganda, “disinformation” and “fake news” in addition to the cyberattack on the Democratic National Committee. “I don’t think we have ever encountered a more aggressive or direct campaign to interfere in our election process than we saw in this instance,” Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said in a hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee.

      Trisha Baker and Debbie Hartman were leaving Orlando on Allegiant Airlines to visit their ailing 84-year-old father in a hospice in Asheville, North Carolina, Monday. Debbie was sitting a few rows behind her sister. Trisha says she walked back and took the empty seat across the aisle from Debbie to console her, catching the attendant of a flight attendant. Fellow passengers say they were appalled at the attitude of one flight attendant in particular.

      Evidence paints Dylann Roof as racist, drifting loner

      Before Dylann Roof was arrested for killing nine black church members, he scribbled a note to his mother, apologizing for all the repercussions his actions would cause. Jurors who convicted Roof of hate crimes and other charges will decide whether he should be executed or face life in prison. Roof has pointed out that there was no dramatic confrontation that led him to begin hating blacks.

      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.

      Toyota's CES Concept Car Is Something Else

      Say hello to Toyota's Concept-i, a far-out concept car the automaker unveiled during its press conference at CES 2017. Like all concept cars, this is intended not to hit the road as-is but to demonstrate the carmaker's vision of the future. As Toyota Research Institute head Gill Pratt explained during the demo, that vision involves two things: making the car safer, and changing the way people interact with their vehicles.

      Menendez Case Gets An ABC Special

      About 27 years have passed since the Menendez brothers killed their parents, but ABC News is reopening and diving into their sordid story this week. The network was set to air "Truth and Lies: The Menendez Brothers," a two-hour documentary special on the infamous case, Thursday at 9 p.m. EST. It was August 1989 when Erik and Lyle Menendez, then aged 18 and 21 years, respectively, ended the lives of their parents, Cuban-American entertainment executive Jose Menendez and his wife, Kitty.

      Coming Soon to the U.S. Army: Turbans, Beards, Hijabs, and Dreadlocks

      The Army has issued a new regulation: Effective immediately, brigade-level commanders will be able to grant accommodations to servicemen and women who wear beards, turbans, or hijabs for religious reasons—the three most common requests for waivers to current guidelines on grooming and dress, according to a letter from the Secretary of the Army, Eric Fanning. It came about largely in response to litigation and advocacy from Sikh servicemen who wear beards and turbans for religious reasons, and who wanted to be able to keep them while actively serving. It’s possible that the Army felt it had no options and wanted to put the issue to rest, but also possible the directive reflects some other unstated motive.

      Chicago's gang violence catches highway drivers in crossfire

      Jonathan Ortiz and other members of his rap group, No Nights Off, stepped onto the stage at Chicago's House of Blues in mid-September for a concert they hoped would propel their young, promising careers. Less than two weeks later, the 22-year-old Ortiz, who forebodingly rapped under the stage name "John Doe," was fatally shot as he drove on an expressway in Chicago. Ortiz and Garcia were victims of the 38th shooting on Chicago-area expressways in 2016, a record-high number for a city stung by a murder rate not seen in two decades.

      Intelligence chief: Russia’s election interference went far beyond hacks

      Director of National Intelligence James Clapper says the Russian government’s interference with the United States election went far beyond the now highly publicized hacks of Democratic email accounts, which were merely one part of a multilayered campaign of propaganda and deception. The intelligence leader outlined various methods wielded by Moscow to interfere with U.S. institutions during Thursday morning testimony on cyberattacks before the Senate Armed Services Committee. The testimony comes at a point of tension between the U.S. intelligence community and Donald Trump.

In the May 7, 2015, tweet, which came before Trump announced his presidential campaign, the real estate mogul bragged that he was the first potential GOP candidate to pledge no cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — and that former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee had “copied” him.

Following hot on the heels of its new Black Edition Continental with aggressive body kit, Bentley is getting ready to launch another special GT but this one promises to offer supercar-like acceleration to match the external styling. Until now, the title of the most extreme and supercar-like Bentley in history has been held by the very rare and very expensive Continental GT3-R.

      Tillerson, Exxon Confirm $180M Retirement Agreement

      United States President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet pick for the position of secretary of state, Rex Tillerson, is set to receive more than $180 million as he severs his ties with his former company–ExxonMobil. If Tillerson, the former chairman and CEO of ExxonMobil, is confirmed to the post through upcoming hearings before the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee that start from Jan. 11, he will be paid in cash for his previously set retirement package that was pegged at the value of two million unvested shares over the next ten years and the money will be transferred to an independently managed trust, according to a regulatory filing on Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Upon confirmation, Tillerson would be committed to selling his more than 600,000 vested Exxon shares worth about $54 million.
