Breitbart: Judge Rules DFL Candidate Ineligible, Giving GOP Majority in Minnesota House
A Minnesota judge ruled that DFL candidate Curtis Johnson is ineligible to take office due to not meeting residency requirements, granting Republicans a slim majority in the House. The decision shifts the balance of power from a tie to a one-seat GOP advantage.
Johnson's opponent, Paul Wikstrom, successfully challenged his residency, proving Johnson did not reside in the district for the required six months before the election. Johnson can appeal the ruling, but for now, he will not be sworn in on January 14, 2025.

Breitbart: Report: Biden Considering Commuting Sentences of Men on Death Row
President Biden is reportedly considering commuting the sentences of most, if not all, of the 40 men on federal death row, potentially converting their sentences to life without parole. A decision could be made by Christmas, though no final decision has been confirmed.
The discussion comes amid calls for commutation from figures like Pope Francis, who has urged prayers for those on death row and has declared capital punishment inadmissible. The debate centers on whether to issue a blanket commutation or maintain death sentences for the most egregious offenders.

The Telegraph: Accomplices of student who beheaded Samuel Paty get 16 years in prison
A French court sentenced two friends of the jihadist who murdered teacher Samuel Paty to 16 years in prison for complicity in the crime. They were found guilty of providing logistical support, including assistance in purchasing weapons, with full knowledge of the killer's jihadist beliefs.
Paty was beheaded in October 2020 for showing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed in class. His assailant, Abdoullakh Anzorov, was killed by police shortly after the attack.
