      Trump executive order leaves Malala ‘heartbroken’

      Malala Yousafzai, the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, on Friday condemned President Trump’s executive order establishing new vetting measures for immigrants. “I am heartbroken that today President Trump is closing the door on children, mothers and fathers fleeing violence and war,” Yousafzai said. Yousafzai, 19, issued the statement at about the same time that Trump announced his latest executive orders, including one that reportedly will suspend the U.S. refugee program for 120 days.

      L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti: Resisting Trump isn’t enough. Why California has to work with him too.

      Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti speaks during the Women’s March Los Angeles on Jan. 21. If the “resistance” to President Trump has a headquarters, a nerve center, a ground zero, then California is it — or so the state’s top politicians like to tell us. Pretty much every day since Nov. 8 there’s been yet another news story about yet another left-coast official insisting that he or she won’t let Trump undercut California’s progressive policies or mess with California’s progressive values — or else his or her name isn’t [insert name here].

      Florida airport shooting suspect indicted on 22 counts

      A federal grand jury returned a 22-count indictment against the man accused of a shooting rampage at a South Florida airport that left five people dead and six wounded. Santiago could face the death penalty if convicted in the Jan. 6 shooting at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. The indictment contains no terrorism-related charges despite Santiago's claims to the FBI after the shooting that he was inspired by videos and chatrooms affiliated with the Islamic State extremist group, which agents have not been able to corroborate.

      The @POTUS Twitter Account Was Linked To A Gmail Account And Wasn't Protected By Two-Factor Authentication

      When Donald Trump took the oath of office to become the 45th President of the United States, he also gained access to the official @POTUS Twitter account. The registration to a private email account was first pointed out by a hacker, who goes by WauchulaGhost, who shared the information on Twitter with a warning that Trump and his staff should change the emails and fix their security settings. The @FLOTUS account belonging to Melania Trump, @PressSec account handed to press secretary Sean Spicer and @VP account held by Vice President Mike Pence all were registered to private emails accounts.

      Remains of missing Fort Campbell soldier identified

      Skeletal remains discovered in Tennessee this week have been identified as those of a Fort Campbell soldier missing since September, officials said. The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) on Wednesday confirmed the remains were those of Private First Class Shadow McClaine, who was last seen on Sept. 2. Sergeant Jamal Williams-McCray, McClaine's ex-husband, and Specialist Charles Robinson, who served in the 101st Airborne Division with McClaine, remain in pre-trial confinement pending court-martial on charges of kidnapping, conspiracy and premeditated murder, the fort's public affairs office said in a statement.

      Freezing weather kills 27 Afghan children

      Mazar-i-Sharif (Afghanistan) (AFP) - Heavy snowfall and freezing weather has killed 27 children, all under the age of five, in a remote district in northern Afghanistan, officials said Thursday, with fears the toll could rise. Roads in Darzaab in northern Jawzjan province were blocked by 50 centimetres (20 inches) of snow, cutting off access for villagers in the area to medical care as temperatures plunged to -10 degrees Celsius (14 Fahrenheit). "Unfortunately we have 27 children killed due to heavy snowfall and freezing weather," district governor Rahmatullah Hashar told AFP, saying the deaths had occurred over the last two or three days.

      If you're a blue state voter who's spent any time on Facebook in the past few months, you've probably been overwhelmed by caps lock Facebook posts begging you to call your representatives. The posts can feel simultaneously redundant and contradictory — call your senator to oppose Betsy Devos..no wait, send Paul Ryan a postcard first! — and render some of us completely impassive. A new site, "5 Calls," aims to make calling that much easier, giving users easy one-minute scripts they can read to their representative each week.

      Elizabeth Warren defends Ben Carson vote against liberal backlash

      Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., found herself in an unusual position after voting to support retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson’s nomination to President Trump’s cabinet — defending herself to aggrieved progressives. On Wednesday evening, after considerable pushback from supporters, Warren wrote on Facebook that she thinks backing Carson was a reasonable decision despite her “serious, deep, profound concerns” about Carson’s inexperience and the “outrageous things” he said as a Republican presidential candidate. Warren explained that she sent Carson a nine-page letter with detailed questions on a host of issues she considers central for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), including providing housing assistance, fighting homelessness, preparing for natural disasters, and protecting the LGBT community.

      Dutch minister quits as old scandal claims fourth scalp

      Dutch Justice Minister Ard van der Steur resigned Thursday as an old scandal over 2.1 million euros paid by prosecutors to a drug baron returned to haunt Prime Minister Mark Rutte's ruling party. Thank you," an emotional Van der Steur said after a six-hour grilling by opposition parties. Van der Steur is the fourth high-profile parliamentarian from the Liberal VVD party to resign since March 2015, in a move that could damage the premier's bid for re-election in general elections now less than seven weeks away.

      Trump Is Already Damaging the Ability of the State Department to Function

      Elections have consequences and among them is the fact that the new administration gets to select its own team to implement its own policies. As a State Department political appointee in the Barack Obama administration, I was under no illusion after the election that I would be asked to stick around or, painful as it may be, that the policy initiatives that my colleagues and I had championed were likely to persist.

      Boko Haram Islamists raided a village in northeast Nigeria earlier this week, killing three men and abducting seven women, police said Thursday. The militants raided a village in the northeastern district of Askira Uba on Monday, firing weapons and burning buildings to the ground, Borno state police commissioner Damian Chukwu told AFP. Casting doubt on government claims that Boko Haram is "technically defeated", the police chief said officers had been deployed in the area to forestall further attacks.

      Although millions of people around the world continue to buy iPhones every year, it’s hard to deny that the enthusiasm for Apple’s smartphones has diminished somewhat over the past few generations. The iPhone 6 was the last major upgrade, and in the years since its launch, other vendors have moved on to bigger and bolder designs. Thankfully for Apple fans, the long wait for another overhaul might be nearly over.

      Jubilant Gambia awaits president's return

      Jubilant Gambians prepared Thursday to welcome home their new president Adama Barrow, who was elected almost two months ago but fled to Senegal when his predecessor refused to step aside. Barrow's return at 1600 GMT will cap days of anxious waiting in the tiny former British colony that was thrown into chaos when longtime leader Yahya Jammeh refused to leave after losing a December 1 vote. Barrow took the oath of office at his country's embassy in Dakar a week ago and a multinational African force then entered The Gambia to ensure his safe return home and Jammeh's departure.

      AP FACT CHECK: Trump wrong that 2 killed during Obama speech

      President Donald Trump incorrectly claimed in a television interview that two people were shot and killed in Chicago during then-President Barack Obama's farewell speech. The portion of the interview in which Trump made the remarks was not televised, but was included in a transcript that ABC posted online. Chicago police records show no one was fatally shot in the city on Jan. 10, the day of Obama's speech.

      Aston Martin is in the midst of a revision to its entire lineup, spearheaded by the all-new DB11. Like its hardtop sibling, the Vanquish S Volante is powered by Aston's old 5.9-liter, naturally aspirated V12 making 580 horsepower, mated to an eight-speed automatic gearbox sending power to the rear wheels. Aston hasn't announced performance specifications for the Vanquish S Volante yet, but it'll probably be nearly identical to the coupe's 3.5-second 0-60 sprint and 201-mph top speed.

      Philippines says U.S. military to upgrade bases, defense deal intact

      By Manuel Mogato MANILA (Reuters) - The United States will upgrade and build facilities on Philippine military bases this year, Manila's defense minister said on Thursday, bolstering an alliance strained by President Rodrigo Duterte's opposition to a U.S. troop presence. The Pentagon gave the green light to start the work as part of an Enhanced Defence Cooperation Agreement (EDCA), a 2014 pact that Duterte has threatened to scrap during barrages of hostility towards the former colonial power. "EDCA is still on," Defence Secretary Delfin Lorenzana told a news conference.
