House Speaker Mike Johnson faces challenges in securing enough votes for his continued leadership, with Rep. Chip Roy expressing uncertainty about his support. Rep. Derrick Van Orden criticized Roy, emphasizing loyalty to Trump's agenda over individual interests.

Le Monde: '2025 will not be the year of democratic recovery'
In 2024, over a billion adults voted in elections across numerous countries, revealing a trend of discontent among electorates and a decline in centrist politics. The rise of protest movements, both left and right, indicates a shift away from traditional democratic norms.
While some nations showed resilience against the rise of autocracy, such as India and Brazil, the U.S. faces challenges with the election of Donald Trump, raising concerns about the integrity of its democratic practices. The situation in 2025 will clarify whether the U.S. is moving toward "illiberal" democracy.
GB News: Chris Philp hits out at the Labour Party's 'extremely weak' measures to 'smash the gangs'
Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp criticized Labour's new measures against people smuggling, labeling them as "extremely weak" and ineffective. He argued that confiscating mobile phones from suspected smugglers would not deter illegal immigration, which has risen by 29% in recent months.
Philp also condemned Labour's decision to cancel the Rwanda deterrent scheme, suggesting it would have significantly reduced migrant crossings. The new powers allow courts to impose restrictions on suspected traffickers, but critics doubt their effectiveness in addressing the ongoing crisis.
