A British man by the name of Edward Pettifer is also among the confirmed victims. Pettifer, 31, from London, England, was the stepson of Prince William and Prince Harry’s former nanny, Alexandra Pettifer—more widely known as Tiggy Legge-Bourke. “Catherine and I have been shocked and saddened by the tragic death of Ed Pettifer,” Prince William posted on X via the official Kensington Palace account. “Our thoughts and prayers remain with the Pettifer family and all those innocent people who have been tragically impacted by this horrific attack.”
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass launched an initiative to provide more resources for unhoused veterans. This comes after a regulatory change in the state allowing veterans to apply for both disability benefits and housing assistance. Previous regulations required veterans to choose between the two. “For too long, too many in government have accepted people living on the street,” Bass said. “I do not accept the humanitarian crisis on our streets, especially when it comes to Angelenos who have served and sacrificed their bodies for our country.”
"Kinzinger had only a split second to decide whether to intervene and risk his own life — a decision that, he admits, didn’t come easily. “They say in a crisis half of the people run, 40% freeze and 10% act. I felt every one of those emotions,” he says. “If someone would have whispered ‘Run’ to me, I would have run.” Ultimately, his conscience wouldn’t let him walk away. “There were two immediate thoughts that went through my head. The first one was, ‘If I act, I’m gonna die.’ The second was, ‘If I watch this lady die, and I do nothing, I can’t live with myself for the rest of my life.’ ”. Kinzinger engaged in a tense struggle with the attacker that he describes as a "close grapple." “I had his knife hand and I remember consciously feeling the knife hand trying to stab me,” he says. “It’s not a matter of pride now, it’s a matter of life to win.” After successfully pinning the man to the ground and waiting for police to arrive, Kinzinger was able to walk away, but it took months for him to process what had occurred. “I [had] blood all over me. The shirt that had all the blood, I could not bring myself to wash it for some reason,” he says. “It stayed in a corner in my room and then it was about two or three months later I started realizing I had some PTSD from it… That moment on that street in Milwaukee utterly changed my life.”
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz shared his approach to dealing with tech mogul Elon Musk who lately has traded barbs with German politicians, saying it is wise to not “feed the troll.” “There are a lot of people on social media who want to attract attention with snappy slogans,” Scholz said in an interview with German magazine Stern published on Saturday. “I don’t believe in courting Mr. Musk’s favor,” he added. “I’m happy to leave that to others.” Scholz emphasized that “as Social Democrats, we have been used to the fact that there are rich media entrepreneurs who do not appreciate Social Democratic politics — and do not hide their opinions.”
The New Orleans Saints have pledged to donate $1 million to relief efforts for the victims of the terror attack in the French Quarter on New Year's Day.
Make no mistake Musk is a genius and Trump is a great deal breaker who puts American interests at the forefront but unfortunately, this migration issue needs careful review and analysis by the American people; as it becames clear that middle income families and workers desperately need jobs.
A shroud of secrecy shields the ritual, and Pakistan has no comprehensive national data on how widespread FGM is. Girls are subjected to FGM at an age when it is difficult for them to process it on their own. And the Dawoodi Bohra community does not even refer to the removal of the clitoral hood as mutilation – they call it circumcision, a rite of passage that must be gone through – that must not be questioned. Women who choose to speak out against this practice are at times threatened with excommunication from the community. “When you question an authority, you are shown the way out,” says Mariam.
"According to the NY Post, authorities found strong evidence that the special force soldier wrote a manifesto accusing the U.S. government of collaborating with China to develop dangerous drones. He referred to these drones as "the most dangerous threat to national security" and claimed they had “gravity manipulation technology, making them hard to detect.”
“We are being led by weak and feckless leadership who only serve to enrich themselves,” Livelsberger said in a second note, according to authorities. “We are the United States of America, the best country people to ever exist! But right now we are terminally ill and headed toward collapse.”
"Other officials are even musing that the relationship between Trump and Musk might prove too combustible in office."
