Fox News: How Trump, AG Bondi can persuade Democrats to abandon lawfare
On his first day back in office, President Trump signed an executive order to combat what he perceives as the Biden administration's weaponization of government against him. This follows the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith to investigate Trump, marking a significant legal precedent.
Critics argue that the Biden administration's actions, including last-minute pardons, indicate a continued commitment to political lawfare. The piece suggests that unless Democrats acknowledge the wrongness of their tactics, similar retaliatory investigations could ensue.
Le Monde: French PM's immigration remarks hand a semantic victory to far right
Prime Minister François Bayrou recently used the term "submersion" to describe immigration in France, suggesting that an overwhelming influx of foreigners can lead to cultural rejection. This statement reflects a growing concern over immigration's impact on national identity.
The far-right Rassemblement National party, typically detached from such rhetoric, inadvertently found itself in a semantic battle as Bayrou's comments echoed themes often exploited by far-right ideologists.
Fox News: MSNBC’s primetime lineup has worst January ever among demographic coveted by advertisers
MSNBC's primetime lineup recorded its lowest January audience ever among adults aged 25-54, averaging just 63,000 viewers, placing it 31st among cable networks. Despite significant news events, it lagged behind competitors like Fox News and CNN, which averaged 353,000 and 118,000 viewers, respectively.
The network's struggles extend beyond primetime, with only 45,000 total day demo viewers compared to Fox's 253,000 and CNN's 80,000. As MSNBC prepares for a spin-off from NBCUniversal, maintaining viewer numbers will be crucial for its advertising revenue.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. faced intense scrutiny during his Senate confirmation hearings for Secretary of Health and Human Services, particularly regarding his controversial vaccine views. Despite heated exchanges with Democrats, who criticized his past statements linking vaccines to autism, no Republicans voiced opposition, suggesting a strong chance of confirmation.
Kennedy, who previously ran for president before endorsing Trump, defended his stance on vaccines and expressed support for certain immunizations. He also faced questions about his shifting views on abortion and healthcare reform. With a Republican majority in the Senate, his confirmation appears likely despite ongoing Democratic criticism.

Gabbard's past positions, including her stance on intelligence gathering and meetings with controversial figures, have raised concerns among GOP senators. Some Trump-aligned senators are reportedly considering waiving committee rules to allow a public vote on her nomination.
