Walter David: With Donald Trump the truth hurts, doesn't it?
Marianne Williamson announces bid for DNC chairKABUL (TOLONews): Bilal Karimi, the Islamic Emirate’s ambassador to China, met with Uzbekistan’s ambassador in Beijing to discuss expanding political, economic, and trade relations. During the meeting, the Uzbekistan ambassador expressed interest in investing in Afghanistan’s cement, electricity, and other sectors. The Afghan ambassador described the establishment of a joint market in Surkhandarya, Uzbekistan, as a significant advancement and called for further progress and cooperation in transit and trade sectors. Qutbuddin Yaqubi, an economic expert, stated: “Uzbekistan, as Afghanistan’s neighbor, holds a strategic geographical position and can play a significant role in investment, particularly in developing and strengthening Afghanistan’s infrastructure.” Meanwhile, the Ministry of Economy highlighted the benefits of foreign investments for Afghanistan’s economic growth. The ministry’s spokesperson said that countries such as Qatar, Iran, Turkey, Uzbekistan, and China are actively investing in various sectors in Afghanistan. Abdul Rahman Habib, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Economy, said: “Foreign investments enhance economic cooperation between countries. Apart from China, countries like Qatar, Turkey, Iran, Uzbekistan, and some companies with extensive international experience are interested in investing and have already initiated projects in some sectors.” Meanwhile, several traders emphasized the need for greater facilitation in various areas, including transportation, with regional countries. Omid Haidari, a trader, said: “The only remaining issue is with Kazakhstan. We urge the Kazakh leadership to allow transit permits for our transport vehicles so we can access Moscow via Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, and from Moscow to other destinations.” Earlier, the Uzbekistan ambassador, during a meeting with Abdul Salam Hanafi, the administrative deputy prime minister, also stressed strengthening relations in various fields, including establishing healthcare centers, importing medicine, setting up cement factories, and purchasing and trading coal from Afghanistan.
The New York Jets have now officially gone 14 years without making the playoffs, which is an active record for the NFL . The embarrassment doesn't stop there, though: it is an active record for virtually all major American professional sports leagues, including the NBA , NHL , MLB , and the WNBA. With a loss today at Miami, the Jets now have been eliminated from the playoffs for the 14th consecutive season, extending the longest active drought across the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB and the WNBA. pic.twitter.com/Sxj0vpaXC0 More News: Former First-Round Pick Jets LB Likely Out For Rest Of Season The Jets' playoff hopes were officially extinguished in a gut-wrenching 32-26 overtime loss to the Miami Dolphins, a game they had been on the brink of winning. With just seconds left in regulation, New York had driven deep into Dolphins territory, setting up what appeared to be a game-winning field goal. However, after exchanging field goals to end regulation, the game took a devastating turn in overtime. Miami received the ball first, and Tua Tagovailoa led the Dolphins downfield, capping the drive with a touchdown pass to Jonnu Smith, who had been silent throughout regulation but caught three crucial passes on the decisive possession. The Jets (3-10) were eliminated from playoff contention, while the Dolphins (6-7) kept their postseason hopes alive. The loss marked the Jets' fourth consecutive defeat and their ninth in the last 10 games, extending their streak of futility in Miami to nine straight losses. Despite holding an eight-point lead in the fourth quarter, the Jets once again failed to finish strong, sealing their fate and ending any hopes of a late-season rally. This loss makes the Jets the team to go longest without making the playoffs in active professional leagues, which has to sting even more than the other major losses of the season. To be fair, the season has been an extraordinarily chaotic one for the Jets and it is difficult to imagine any team performing well under the circumstances. In late November, the team fired general manager Joe Douglas, just six weeks after dismissing head coach Robert Saleh. More News: Jets Owner Could Give Up Team To Join Donald Trump Administration To fill the void, defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich was promoted to interim head coach, where he wasted no time reshuffling the coaching staff. He demoted offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett and promoted Todd Downing to offensive play-caller, hoping to spark some life into a struggling offense. In an effort to ignite the offense, the Jets made a major move by acquiring Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders, which has not paid off quite as well as they might have hoped. However, owner Woody Johnson had considered even bolder changes earlier in the season, as the team struggled to find its rhythm. After a dismal 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4, Johnson reportedly floated the idea of benching Aaron Rodgers in favor of Tyrod Taylor, citing concerns that Rodgers' performance was hindering the team's progress. While the organization has denied these rumors, the team's current 14-year losing streak will likely cause some shakeups for next season and it's anyone guess whether Rodgers will stick around in 2025.

The brother of the late Princess Diana, Charles Spencer, has shared a solemn post visiting his sister's grave over the Christmas period. The 9th Earl Spencer, 60, took to social media on December 24 to share a 'quiet moment' at his younger sister's resting place at Althorp House - the home where the two grew up together. Charles shared a picture of a grand black bench perched under her memorial, writing that it was the perfect spot to remember his younger sister, who died in 1997 aged 36. 'My favourite bench - good place to sit on Christmas Eve during a quiet moment,' he captioned the photo, revealing the black bench beneath a portrait of Diana. Adding a second picture to his Instagram story, Charles shared a pensive snap of Oval Lake, showing the shadows of the leaf barren trees bearing down over the water. Princess Diana is buried on a island in the middle of the lake, which is accessible only by boat to close friends and family. She had initially been planned to be buried at a vault in Great Brington where generations of Spencers have historically been laid to rest. But fearing for her privacy, even in death, Charles elected to change her final resting spot to Althorp House, where the pair spent many happy years growing up. The brother of the late Princess Diana , Charles Spencer, (pictured) has shared a solemn post visiting his sister's grave over the Christmas period Charles posted a picture of a grand black bench perched under her memorial, writing that it was the perfect... Alice WadeRemain firm KEIR Starmer must resist the incessant siren calls of Remainers in his party. For the first time this decade, Britain has an Anglophile US President keen to do a deal which could transform our economic fortunes. What is the point of risking that relationship by cosying up further to a failed EU which we fought so hard to free ourselves from? Don’t take our word for it. Listen to Shanker Singham, one of the world’s leading trade experts. Living standards have no chance of getting better if Labour resets ties with Brussels and ends up derailing a US deal, he says. Britain’s post-Brexit place in the lucrative CPTPP group of trading countries would also be put at risk. READ MORE ON SIR KEIR STARMER Our current trade with the EU is working. Brexit freedoms must not be thrown away at the insistence of those Remainiac MPs who have never forgiven voters for inflicting that 2016 Referendum defeat. We trust the Prime Minister won’t make a fatal mistake by listening to them now. No panic, Kemi NIGEL Farage’s boast that Britain’s youngest political party now has more members than the oldest in the world is, on the face of it, bad news for the Tories. Most read in The Sun Right now Reform is cashing in on widespread dismay at Labour’s stuttering start in Government. But there is no need for Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch to start panicking just yet. A General Election is not likely for at least four years. That’s plenty of time for the Tories to put their catastrophic defeat behind them and come up with serious solutions to the country’s many problems. Showing true Conservative values and policies is the way for Badenoch to win voters’ trust, land punches on Labour — and deal with the rise of Reform. Hope for Beeb FOR the first time in years the BBC served up a feast of Christmas telly. The superb ending to Gavin and Stacey and the sublime Wallace and Gromit provided us with rare moments of national unity. In their own ways, these brilliant shows are celebrations of traditional British values and ordinary lives. Each had their own little digs at wokery and warnings of the stupidity of being led by social media. Food for thought for BBC bosses obsessed with both. READ MORE SUN STORIES This was a timely reminder that the job of the national broadcaster is to cater for the majority — not the minority. To stop preaching and make shows that we all want to watch together.
