Fox News: Present and Accounted For: House Republicans' small majority could make attendance a priority
As the 119th Congress begins, attendance will become a crucial factor in legislative proceedings, particularly for the slim Republican majority of 219-215. With only a small margin for error, the GOP must navigate absences due to illness or personal matters to advance their agenda.
Special elections will also impact the majority, with key resignations expected to reduce Republican numbers further. Democrats will need full attendance to effectively oppose the GOP, but health concerns among some members may hinder their efforts. Attendance will be closely monitored as it could determine the outcome of key votes.

Le Monde: In Kenya, a single mother 'crisis'
In Kenya, the rise of single-parent families has become a pressing issue, with statistics showing an increase from 25% to 38% in just a decade. Many women, like Jacinta Nafula, face abandonment and struggle to raise children alone, highlighting a shift in societal norms regarding fatherhood.
Experts suggest that changing social dynamics have led to a decline in men's responsibilities within families. The traditional patriarchal role is being undermined, leaving many women to navigate parenthood without support, raising concerns about the long-term impact on children and society.

Eliza Assaly, 39, has been sentenced to 15 months in prison for defrauding nearly £150,000 from taxpayer-funded benefits over five years by impersonating her stepmother. She falsely claimed pension credit, housing benefit, and attendance allowance while her stepmother lived abroad.
