Figliuzzi: 'Trump Intends to Turn the FBI into His Own Personal Police Department'
Frank Figliuzzi, an MSNBC national security contributor, expressed concerns that President-elect Donald Trump aims to transform the FBI into a personal police force. He noted that Trump's transition team has delayed signing an agreement with the Justice Department, impacting security clearances for transition members.

Figliuzzi highlighted that Trump plans to control the FBI's background investigations, only allowing them after he appoints key officials. This raises national security concerns as it could lead to granting security clearances to nominees without thorough investigations.

Le Monde: In the face of overtourism, the Norwegian government wants to introduce a tourist tax
In the face of overtourism, the Norwegian government wants to introduce a tourist tax
Norway's Lofoten Islands face challenges from increased tourism, including litter and environmental strain. In response, Economy Minister Cecilie Myrseth proposed a tourist tax of up to 5% on accommodations, which could generate significant revenue for local public services.

Critics, including the Norwegian Hotel Association, argue that the tax won't address the core issues and may disproportionately affect Norwegians, who make up the majority of bookings. They suggest alternative measures like landing taxes for cruise ships and stricter parking regulations.

He emphasized that the current agreement empowers the Lebanese Armed Forces to prevent Hezbollah from rebuilding its capabilities.

Despite skepticism about the LAF's effectiveness against Hezbollah, Hochstein noted that international support is being mobilized to strengthen it. He also refuted claims of US pressure on Israel regarding the deal, asserting that there were no threats related to weapons or UN resolutions.
