Former President Carter Passes Away at 100, Biden Announces $2.5 Billion in Security Assistance for Ukraine, White House Proposes Cybersecurity Overhaul, and More National and Global News
QUICK NEWS
A federal appeals court on Monday upheld a $5 million verdict in favor of E. Jean Carroll, who had sued Donald Trump after a jury found the U.S. president-elect liable for sexually abusing and later defaming the former magazine columnist.
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump criticized the 2023 debt ceiling extension on Sunday, calling the agreement between then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and President Joe Biden "one of the dumbest political decisions made in years."
Mikheil Kavelashvili, a vocal critic of the West, was sworn in as the president of Georgia on Sunday amid a political crisis following the government's decision to freeze European Union application talks, a move that has sparked major protests.
Finnish police said on Sunday that they had discovered tracks stretching for dozens of kilometers along the bottom of the Baltic Sea, where a tanker carrying Russian oil is suspected of damaging a power line and four telecom cables with its anchor.

Holding elections in Syria could take up to four years, according to Syria's de facto leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, who spoke in an interview with Al Arabiya on Sunday. This marks the first time al-Sharaa has provided a potential timeline for elections since Bashar al-Assad was ousted earlier this month.
The UK government has confirmed that Asma al-Assad, the wife of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, is not allowed to enter the country where she holds citizenship. This decision effectively prevents her from returning to the UK, where she was born, and suggests that she will likely remain in Russia for the foreseeable future.
Honoring a Legacy: Jimmy Carter, Advocate for Peace, Passes Away at 100
Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, a champion of peace, human rights, and global diplomacy, passed away on Sunday, December 29, 2024, at the age of 100. The news was first reported by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
From his humble beginnings in Plains, Georgia, to his tenure as the 39th President of the United States, Carter’s life was a testament to unwavering service and compassion. His presidency was marked by significant achievements, most notably the Camp David Accords, which brokered peace between Egypt and Israel and became a cornerstone of his diplomatic legacy.
After leaving the White House, Carter’s impact only grew. Together with his beloved wife Rosalynn, he founded The Carter Center in 1982, dedicating their lives to combating diseases, overseeing elections, and promoting democracy and human rights worldwide. His humanitarian efforts earned him the Nobel Peace Prize, solidifying his place as one of the most respected global figures of our time.
I had the honor of meeting President Carter in 2014 in Manhattan. He graciously signed a copy of his book for me, and we shared a meaningful conversation. Since then, I have eagerly awaited his Thanksgiving greetings each year, which always included a heartfelt message and a family photo. This year marked the first without Rosalynn by his side, a loss deeply felt by all who admired their extraordinary partnership.
While the news of President Carter’s passing is profoundly saddening, we find solace in knowing he is now reunited with Rosalynn, forever side by side. Their bond was a true testament to love and shared service, inspiring countless individuals around the world. May he rest in well-deserved peace.
To honor Carter’s legacy, President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has ordered U.S. flags to be flown at half-staff for 30 days, including at all public buildings, military posts, naval stations, and U.S. embassies abroad. Biden has also designated January 9, 2025, as a National Day of Mourning, encouraging Americans to gather in places of worship to honor Carter’s memory. The global community is invited to join in this observance.
U.S. government agencies and executive departments will close on January 9, in accordance with an executive order issued by President Biden. Stock exchanges will also remain closed that day. A state funeral will be held at the Washington National Cathedral, where President Biden will deliver a eulogy for Carter. This solemn occasion will follow six days of ceremonies in Georgia and Washington, D.C., celebrating Carter’s life and legacy.
President Biden addressed the nation in a broadcasted speech from the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he is currently vacationing with his family, on the day of President Carter's passing.
In a statement, China’s President Xi Jinping expressed his condolences, emphasizing Carter’s pivotal role in establishing diplomatic ties between the United States and China more than 40 years ago. International leaders and former U.S. presidents followed with heartfelt tributes, underscoring Carter’s profound influence on fostering global relationships.
Please join me for the ACTUAL NEWS on December 31, where I will provide a detailed readout of the planned funeral services in Georgia and Washington, D.C., as shared by the Pentagon. I’ll also answer your questions about how you can honor and commemorate the legacy of President Jimmy Carter.
President Biden Announces $2.5 Billion in Security Assistance for Ukraine
President Joe Biden has announced nearly $2.5 billion in security assistance for Ukraine to support its defense against Russian aggression. This package includes a $1.25 billion military drawdown and a $1.22 billion Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), aimed at providing both immediate and long-term military capabilities. The assistance will deliver critical weapons systems, including air defense and artillery, and will help replenish U.S. defense stockpiles. Biden reiterated his commitment to rapidly surging aid to Ukraine and ensuring its continued defense efforts, with the U.S. military delivering essential equipment like artillery rounds and armored vehicles to strengthen Ukraine as winter approaches.
“As I committed earlier this year, the Department of Defense has now allocated all remaining USAI funds appropriated by Congress in the supplemental that I signed in April, and my Administration is fully utilizing the funding appropriated by Congress to support the drawdown of U.S. equipment for Ukraine. I’ve directed my Administration to continue surging as much assistance to Ukraine as quickly as possible—including drawing down older U.S. equipment for Ukraine, rapidly delivering it to the battlefield, and then revitalizing the U.S. defense industrial base to modernize and replenish our stockpiles with new weapons.”
The U.S. will continue supporting Ukraine throughout Biden’s time in office.
U.S. Disburses $3.4 Billion in Budget Support to Ukraine Amid Ongoing Conflict
Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen announced the disbursement of $3.4 billion in direct budget support for Ukraine, emphasizing the critical role of U.S. financial aid in Ukraine's defense against Russia's aggression. This assistance is part of the final disbursement under the bipartisan Ukraine Security Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2024. It is conditioned on Ukraine implementing reforms aimed at strengthening law enforcement, enhancing transparency, and fighting corruption. Yellen highlighted the importance of Ukraine's success for U.S. national security and global stability, underscoring that Russia, not American taxpayers, will bear the costs of its illegal war. The U.S. remains committed to supporting Ukraine through both financial aid and sanctions on Russia’s war efforts.
Treasury Warns of Looming Debt Ceiling Crisis
U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has warned lawmakers that "extraordinary measures" may be required as early as January 14 to prevent the United States from defaulting on its debt. In a letter to Congress, Yellen urged swift action to protect the nation’s creditworthiness.
The Treasury anticipates a $54 billion reduction in U.S. debt on January 2, tied to the redemption of securities related to Medicare payments. However, Yellen noted that the debt ceiling, suspended under a 2023 budget deal, will be reached between January 14 and 23, necessitating extraordinary measures to keep the government operational.
Congress must address the debt ceiling by next year to avoid a default, which could have catastrophic economic implications. Historically, Congress has adjusted the debt limit 103 times since its first cap of $45 billion was set in 1939. Today, publicly held debt stands at 98% of U.S. GDP, a significant increase from 32% in 2001.
Failure to act would prevent the Treasury from meeting its obligations, underlining the urgency of bipartisan cooperation on this politically fraught issue.
Biden Administration Moves to Protect Ruby Mountains from Development
On Monday, the Biden administration announced steps to protect the Ruby Mountains in northeast Nevada from oil, gas, and geothermal development for 20 years. The Interior Department approved a U.S. Forest Service application to withdraw 264,442 acres of federal land from such leasing, initiating a two-year pause and a 90-day public comment period on the proposed 20-year withdrawal.
Interior Secretary Deb Haaland highlighted the area's scenic value, cultural heritage, wildlife, and economic importance through outdoor recreation. The move comes weeks before President-elect Donald Trump, who advocates for increased domestic energy production, is set to take office. While the lands remain open to mining claims, the administration aims to ensure protections for the Ruby Mountains based on scientific and public input.
White House Proposes Cybersecurity Overhaul for Healthcare Organizations Amid Rising Data Breaches
Healthcare organizations may face new cybersecurity mandates to prevent leaks of sensitive patient information following cyberattacks on major entities like Ascension and UnitedHealth, according to Anne Neuberger, U.S. Deputy National Security Advisor for Cyber and Emerging Technology. Speaking to reporters on Friday, Neuberger emphasized the urgency of these measures, citing the more than 167 million Americans affected by healthcare data breaches in 2023 alone.
The proposed rules, introduced by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), aim to strengthen cybersecurity under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Key measures include mandatory data encryption to render leaked information inaccessible and compliance checks to ensure networks adhere to updated cybersecurity standards.
The initiative is projected to cost $9 billion in its first year and $6 billion annually over the following four years. Neuberger highlighted a staggering rise in large-scale healthcare breaches since 2019, with hacking incidents up by 89% and ransomware attacks up by 102%.
Hackers targeting hospitals and healthcare data have forced facilities to operate manually and exposed sensitive information, including mental health records, on the dark web. Such breaches create opportunities for blackmail and threaten patient privacy. “One of the most troubling issues we face is the hacking of hospitals and healthcare data,” Neuberger said.
The HHS has not yet commented on the proposed changes.
AT&T Confirms Chinese-Linked Cyberattack, Ensures U.S. Networks Are Secure
AT&T acknowledged a cyberespionage attack by the Chinese-linked Salt Typhoon operation but assured the public that its U.S. networks are now secure. According to the company, the attack targeted a small number of individuals of foreign intelligence interest, with minimal compromised information identified.
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency previously reported that Salt Typhoon hackers infiltrated multiple telecom companies, including AT&T and Verizon, gaining the ability to geolocate individuals and intercept phone calls. In response, senior officials are advised to adopt end-to-end encrypted communication apps.
Chinese officials have denied the allegations, calling them disinformation, while AT&T continues to collaborate with law enforcement to address the threat. Concerns about the scale and implications of Chinese cyberattacks on U.S. telecom networks persist.
Appeals Court Pauses Enforcement of Anti-Money Laundering Disclosure Law
A U.S. appeals court has reinstated a nationwide injunction halting the enforcement of the Corporate Transparency Act (CTA), a law requiring corporate entities to disclose their real beneficial owners to the U.S. Treasury Department. The decision comes just weeks before a January 13 deadline that would have required most companies to submit their reports.
The New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued the order late Thursday, stating it would preserve the "constitutional status quo while the merits panel considers the parties' weighty substantive arguments." This marked a reversal of a previous ruling earlier in the week that allowed enforcement to proceed.
The injunction stems from a legal challenge brought by the National Federation of Independent Business and several small businesses, represented by the conservative Center for Individual Rights. Todd Gaziano, the organization's president, said in a statement, "Given that we have established that the CTA is likely unconstitutional, this intrusive form of government surveillance should be halted until the law's fate is finally resolved."
U.S. District Judge Amos Mazzant, who issued the initial injunction earlier this month, called the CTA a "quasi-Orwellian statute" in his ruling, asserting that Congress likely exceeded its authority and violated states' rights under the Tenth Amendment.
The CTA, enacted in 2021, requires corporations and LLCs to report beneficial ownership information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN), aiming to curb money laundering by preventing the anonymous formation of entities. Critics argue the law imposes an unconstitutional level of government surveillance on small businesses.
While the Department of Justice supports the law, FinCEN has not yet responded to the recent developments. Proponents of the CTA emphasize its role in combating financial crimes, noting the U.S.'s reputation as a hotspot for illicit activities through anonymous corporate entities.
This legal challenge raises questions about the balance between financial transparency and constitutional rights, with further decisions anticipated from the appeals court.
TikTok Ban Sparks Free Speech Debate as Trump Seeks Supreme Court Delay
A U.S. law targeting Chinese-owned TikTok has drawn sharp criticism from free-speech advocates, who likened the measure to censorship practices associated with authoritarian regimes. On Friday, PEN America, Columbia University's Knight First Amendment Institute, and Free Press filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to overturn the federal law, which seeks to either ban TikTok or force its sale.
The groups argued that the law unlawfully infringes on Americans' First Amendment rights by restricting access to foreign media and noted that it "recalls practices that have long been associated with repressive governments." They emphasized that any action against TikTok must carefully balance national security concerns with constitutional freedoms.
In a parallel development, President-elect Donald Trump petitioned the Supreme Court to delay the looming deadline for a potential TikTok ban, set for the day before his inauguration. Trump’s attorney, D. John Sauer, argued that the incoming president's unique skills and mandate position him to negotiate a resolution that addresses security concerns while safeguarding the platform's future.
Trump, who originally called for a TikTok ban in 2020 due to its Chinese ownership, reversed his stance after a recent meeting with billionaire investor Jeff Yass, a significant TikTok backer. Following the meeting, Trump received a substantial donation from Yass, prompting speculation about the potential impact of private interests on public policy decisions.
The controversy highlights the ongoing tension between protecting national security and preserving free speech, as the fate of TikTok hangs in the balance.
William Webster, 100, Urges Senate to Reject Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard Nominations
William Webster, 100, former FBI Director under Presidents Carter and Reagan and CIA Director under Reagan, has called on the Senate to reject the nominations of Kash Patel and Tulsi Gabbard. Webster emphasized the need for nonpartisan leadership and experience in key positions, stressing that the safety of the American people—and the families of senators—depends on these qualities.
Elon Musk Defends H-1B Visas Amid Immigration Policy Debate
Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, pledged to staunchly defend the H-1B visa program, crucial for foreign tech workers, in response to criticism from President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration hardliners. Musk, himself a naturalized U.S. citizen and former H-1B visa holder, emphasized the program's role in building companies like Tesla and SpaceX, stating, “I will go to war on this issue the likes of which you cannot possibly comprehend.”
The H-1B program, vital to the U.S. tech industry, faces opposition from Trump’s far-right supporters, who argue it undercuts American wages. Tensions flared after criticism of Trump’s appointment of Sriram Krishnan, an Indian American AI adviser, led to Steve Bannon calling out "big tech oligarchs" for backing the program. Musk and other tech leaders differentiated legal immigration, supported by H-1B visas, from illegal immigration.
Trump, who has been silent on the matter, has historically supported skilled worker visas while promising stricter immigration controls. Musk’s advocacy highlights a divide between tech leaders and Trump’s base over immigration policy.
German Politicians Criticize Elon Musk for Supporting Right-Wing AfD
German politicians from both government and opposition criticized Elon Musk for endorsing the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in an opinion piece published in Welt am Sonntag. Musk, set to serve as an adviser in President-elect Donald Trump's administration, praised the AfD's stance on regulation, taxes, and market deregulation, calling it the only party that could "save Germany."
The endorsement comes as Germany prepares for elections on February 23 following the collapse of Chancellor Olaf Scholz's coalition government. Politicians, including opposition leader Friedrich Merz, labeled Musk's intervention as "intrusive," while Saskia Esken of Scholz's SPD warned against external influences undermining democracy.
The AfD, running second in polls, could disrupt centrist coalitions, though mainstream parties have vowed to avoid alliances with them. The editor of Welt's opinion section resigned following the commentary's publication, while the paper defended its decision as a commitment to free speech.
Putin Apologizes to Azerbaijan for Plane Crash Amid Drone Attacks
Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a rare public apology to Azerbaijan's President Ilham Aliyev after an Azerbaijan Airlines flight crashed near Aktau, Kazakhstan, following Russian air defense activity against Ukrainian drones. The Kremlin expressed condolences but stopped short of admitting responsibility, despite Azerbaijan's assertion that the plane was subjected to external interference in Russian airspace. The crash killed 38 people, with 29 survivors reporting a loud bang before the incident. The tragedy highlights the risks to civil aviation near conflict zones, drawing parallels to prior incidents involving civilian aircraft and military activity.
Russia to Abandon Missile Moratorium Amid Escalating Arms Race
Russia announced plans to end its moratorium on deploying intermediate and shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles, citing U.S. deployment of similar weapons worldwide, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov stated on Sunday.
The decision signals the final collapse of arms control agreements like the Cold War-era INF Treaty, which the U.S. exited in 2019, accusing Russia of violations. Lavrov noted that conditions for strategic dialogue with Washington are currently nonexistent, further straining ties between the two nuclear powers.
The move raises fears of a renewed arms race, with Russia, the U.S., and China now pursuing advanced missile systems. Recent developments include Russia's use of a new hypersonic missile, "Oreshnik," in Ukraine, highlighting the growing risks of unchecked weapons proliferation.
Iran Anticipates 2025 as Key Year Amid U.S. Policy Concerns
Iran signaled that 2025 will be a pivotal year for its nuclear issue, as officials brace for the return of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s "maximum pressure" policy. Trump previously withdrew from the 2015 nuclear deal, which had relaxed sanctions in exchange for limits on uranium enrichment.
Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi emphasized the significance of 2025 during talks with Chinese officials but did not elaborate. Iranian concerns include possible Israeli attacks on nuclear sites and intensified U.S. sanctions targeting Iran’s oil industry. The Iranian rial hit a record low against the U.S. dollar, reflecting economic instability and public efforts to safeguard savings through foreign currencies, gold, and cryptocurrencies. Inflation is officially at 35%, and the rial has depreciated by 18% since Trump’s election.
Argentine Diplomatic Residence in Caracas: A "Prison" for Venezuelan Opposition Members
Five Venezuelan opposition members, taking refuge in the Argentine diplomatic residence in Caracas to avoid arrest, describe their situation as living in a "prison." The residence has been without electricity for over a month, which opposition adviser Magalli Meda called a violation of human rights. The Venezuelan government attributes the power outage to unpaid bills.
The opposition members have been sheltered in the residence since March, following arrest warrants. This development comes amid contested July presidential elections, with both President Nicolas Maduro and opposition candidate Edmundo Gonzalez claiming victory. While Gonzalez has fled to Spain, Maria Corina Machado, barred from running in the election, remains in hiding.
Argentina and Peru have recognized the opposition's electoral claims, straining diplomatic relations with Venezuela. Argentina is also embroiled in a separate feud with Venezuela over the detention of an Argentine security officer, accused by Maduro's government of involvement in a right-wing terrorist plot.
Secretary of State Blinken Reaffirms U.S. Support for Venezuela’s Democratic Opposition
Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke today with President-elect Edmundo González Urrutia and María Corina Machado, leaders of Venezuela’s democratic opposition. During the conversation, Secretary Blinken reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to supporting the will of the Venezuelan people as expressed at the ballot box. He also underscored the U.S. support for the peaceful restoration of democracy in Venezuela and the release of all unjustly detained political prisoners.
In his remarks, Blinken reiterated that the United States stands in solidarity with the international community in condemning Maduro’s anti-democratic actions. The Secretary further commended the democratic opposition’s resilience and highlighted the Venezuelan people’s unwavering commitment to democracy despite ongoing repression and adversity.
North Korea Concludes Year-End Meeting with Focus on U.S. Strategy and Foreign Relations
North Korean leader Kim Jong Un convened a key policy-setting meeting of the ruling Workers’ Party last week, state media KCNA reported on Sunday.
The meeting, held from December 23 to 27, outlined a "strongest" response strategy toward the United States to safeguard the country's safety and national interests. Specific details of the strategy were not disclosed.
The KCNA report criticized the growing trilateral alliance between South Korea, the U.S., and Japan, labeling it a "nuclear military bloc" and describing South Korea as an "anti-communism outpost" for Washington. The report underscored that the current geopolitical reality dictated the nation's future direction and actions.
The session also reviewed domestic issues, including the government’s response to this year’s floods, which included relocating affected individuals to Pyongyang. In addition, North Korea pledged to strengthen relations with "friendly" countries.
This 11th plenary session concluded a year marked by increasing military cooperation between North Korea and Russia. A summit between Kim and Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier in the year resulted in a mutual defense agreement, which has drawn criticism from Washington and Seoul. The U.S. and South Korea have confirmed that North Korea has dispatched troops to support Russia in its war against Ukraine, with reports indicating they have suffered significant losses. Just last week, North Korea reportedly lost 1,000 troops in the Kursk region while attempting to push Ukrainian forces out of Russian territory following their "incursion."
The Workers’ Party plenary sessions, often held at year-end, are traditionally used to announce significant policy initiatives. While Kim Jong Un has previously delivered New Year’s Day speeches, it remains unclear if he will continue this practice for 2025.
South Korea Plane Crash Death Toll Rises to 179; Biden Offers Condolences
The death toll from the Jeju Air crash in Muan, South Korea, has climbed to at least 179 as officials investigate potential causes, including a possible landing gear malfunction and reports of a bird strike.
In a statement, President Joe Biden expressed condolences, saying, "Jill and I are deeply saddened to learn of the loss of life... The American people share deep bonds of friendship with the South Korean people, and our thoughts and prayers are with those impacted by this tragedy."
Biden affirmed the U.S.'s readiness to provide assistance if needed.
UPDATE: A second South Korean Jeju Air Boeing 737-800 faced landing gear issues but returned safely, Yonhap reports. South Korea has ordered inspections of all Boeing 737-800s in the country.
Netanyahu Hospitalized for Surgery; Acting PM Appointed Amid Regional Tensions
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was hospitalized on Sunday to undergo prostate removal surgery due to a urinary tract infection caused by benign prostate enlargement. His lawyer informed the court that Netanyahu would be sedated and hospitalized for several days, requesting the cancellation of his testimony scheduled for this week. The court agreed. During his recovery, Justice Minister Yariv Levin, a close ally, will serve as acting prime minister. Netanyahu's health is a concern, given the ongoing regional tensions.
UPDATE: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in good condition and fully conscious after his prostate surgery ended "successfully," his office said on Sunday. "The Prime Minister has now been transferred to a protected underground recovery unit. He is expected to remain in the hospital for observation in the next few days," his office said.
Ceasefire Between Turkey and U.S.-Backed Kurdish Forces Holding, Pentagon Confirms
The Pentagon announced on Monday that a ceasefire around the northern Syrian city of Manbij between Turkey and U.S.-backed Kurdish Syrian forces (SDF) is holding. This follows a Washington-brokered ceasefire earlier this month after fighting erupted amid broader regional unrest.
Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh confirmed the ceasefire's stability despite earlier Turkish denials of such an agreement. The SDF, led by the YPG militia, is a key U.S. ally against Islamic State militants but is viewed by Turkey as an extension of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which it considers a terrorist organization.
The U.S. maintains approximately 2,000 troops in Syria, working alongside the SDF to prevent the resurgence of Islamic State forces.
Ukrainian Delegation Meets Syrian Leader Ahmad al-Sharaa in Damascus, Marks New Cooperation
A Ukrainian delegation led by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha met with Syrian leader Ahmad al-Sharaa in Damascus. The Ukrainian official was greeted with the Ukrainian national anthem and honors.
This visit comes as Ukraine begins providing grain supplies to Syria, filling a gap left by Russia, which had previously halted its grain exports to the country. The meeting underscores growing cooperation between Ukraine and Syria amidst ongoing geopolitical shifts.
