Ted Cruz has sparked online debate by labeling Luigi Mangione, the suspected killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson , as a "leftist," a claim that has been contradicted by Mangione's social media posts praising conservatives and decrying the "woke mind virus." Mangione, a 26-year-old Ivy League graduate, was arrested as a person of interest in last week's brazen killing of Thompson. After his arrest, a wave of online support painted him as a sort of hero, while critics speculated about his political alignment. Senator Cruz reignited the controversy by tweeting that Mangione's actions are evidence that "leftist is a mental disease." Leftism is a mental disease. The suspected murderer, an Ivy League graduate, "subscribed to anti-capitalist and climate-change causes, according to law-enforcement." And the murderer has been widely celebrated by leftists online. Tragic & sick. https://t.co/3VlmRqnbB3 Cruz cited law enforcement reports suggesting Mangione supported anti-capitalist and climate-change causes. However, journalists and social media users quickly pushed back, highlighting Mangione's documented admiration for right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson. Person of Interest in the UHC CEO killing Luigi Mangione is being painted as left-wing by the New York Post but his X account shows someone whose thinking is shaped by the Online Right pic.twitter.com/qxBznzWOCo Mangione's tweets include detailed defenses of Carlson's critique of modern architecture. These posts challenge the simplistic narrative of Mangione as aligned with traditional leftist ideologies. Critics of Cruz have accused him of weaponizing the incident for political points, while others argue that Mangione's beliefs represent a hybrid of ideologies.MLB Winter Meetings Notebook: Juan Soto, Roki Sasaki drive Day 1 chatter

‘Education key area to Pakistan, US collaboration’ Islamabad : Education is a key area where collaboration between the two countries can help improve ties and suggested that universities in the United States can look towards opening a campus here in Pakistan. Relations between Pakistan and the US have the potential to grow and scale up in the years to come, provided both sides recalibrate their relations meticulously. This was stated by two visiting strategic analysts from the US - Daniel F. Runde, Senior Vice President at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and former ambassador and Senior Assistant Secretary of the State Robin Raphel - at an event that was hosted by the Centre for Law and Security CLAS. Dr. Faisal Mushtaq, Chairman & CEO Roots Millennium Education Group & TMUC, welcomed the guests and CLAS Executive Director Rehman Azhar moderated the session. Welcoming the guests, Dr. Faisal Mushtaq said that he will ensure to consolidate and connect the two countries through education to an advanced level now by collaborating TMUC with the prestigious universities in the USA. Daniel Runde, a Republican, who has held senior positions at USAID and the World Bank Group observed that Pakistan and US should foster ties beyond security and defence areas and mineral trade with Pakistan can be utilised to strengthen its ties. He also said that both countries can become partners in energy. Ambassador Robin Raphel, who had served in Pakistan as a diplomat and held the important position of Assistant Secretary of South Asia and Ambassador to Tunisia, also struck a note of optimism for the growth of Pak -US relation. She stressed that both states should focus on forging their relations in non-security areas such as climate change, research, and education. Ambassador Masood Khan, currently President of TMUC and Millennium Institute of Technology and Entrepreneurship MiTE, said that Pakistan looked forward to working with President Trump’s administration, adding that it had done so during the previous Trump administration. Ambassador Khan recently returned from Washington where he has served as Pakistan’s Ambassador to the United States. The event was attended by TMUC and CLAS faculty, researchers, scholars and corporate executives. CLAS Executive Director Rehman Azhar, a renowned anchorperson, said that CLAS would hold a series of such dialogues to promote closer ties between Pakistan and the other nations and foster better trade and investment ties with them.BUFFALO, N.Y. — Today Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer was joined by Buffalo Bills Damar Hamlin to announce that Schumer will be bringing the lifesaving HEARTS Act to the Senate floor this week for a unanimous consent vote to be passed into law. In 2023 Hamlin had went into cardiac arrest during a Bills game, and since then Hamlin has made it his mission to bring awareness to heart health and more. “For months, Damar, the Buffalo Bills and I have worked together on bipartisan legislation to make CPR training accessible and put AEDs in schools across America, and now we are on the one-yard line. This week I will bring the lifesaving HEARTS Act to the Senate floor to be passed into law,” said Sen. Schumer. “Damar has used his voice and turned his inspirational story of recovery into a mission to help millions of children. This legislation goes beyond the field and stretches thousands of miles outside Buffalo. Let’s get the HEARTS Act into the end zone and bring AEDs to schools across America. This bipartisan legislation will save lives, and everybody should support it.” “Since experiencing cardiac arrest, I’ve been honored to work with partners who understand how important it is to provide CPR education and have access to AEDs to save lives,” said Damar Hamlin, Buffalo Bills safety, member of the NFL Smart Heart Sports Coalition and National Ambassador for the American Heart Association's Nation of Lifesavers movement. “I’m very grateful to Senator Schumer for his work making this common-sense legislation a priority. My journey has shown us that no one expects cardiac arrest to happen - and we all need to be prepared. Working together, we have the chance now to protect kids and impact the next generation. I hope that every Senator will lend their support for this bill and that my experience with cardiac arrest will help lead to lasting change. Let’s get this done.“ Schools with AEDs, children who experience cardiac arrest are seven times as likely to survive as children in schools without AEDs, Senator Schumer said during the announcement. During the announcement, Schumer also highlighted the importance of CPR training for students and adults in schools, saying that for every minute without CPR, chances of survival drop by 10% . With more people confident in their ability to perform CPR, people experiencing cardiac arrest will get the care they need more quickly. “On behalf of the NFL and more than 40 members of the Smart Heart Sports Coalition, I applaud Senator Schumer, Damar Hamlin, the Buffalo Bills organization, and all our teammates who have helped move this commonsense, lifesaving measure forward. We urge the Senate to get this important bill over the goal line and onto the President’s desk. Doing so would be a win for our schools and the health and safety of young people across the country,” said Jeff Miller, NFL Executive Vice President of Communications, Public Affairs, and Policy. “The bipartisan HEARTS Act will save lives from cardiac arrest by ensuring schools nationwide have cardiac emergency response plans in place, students and staff are trained in CPR and campuses are equipped with AEDs. These proven measures could be the difference between life and death for the up to 23,000 children who experience a cardiac arrest outside of a hospital each year. Every second counts when someone experiences a cardiac arrest, and schools can’t wait one more minute to have the resources they need to save lives. We urge the Senate to send the House-passed HEARTS Act to the president’s desk for signature,” said Nancy Brown, chief executive officer of the American Heart Association. “As a medical professional who has performed CPR and AED, I know firsthand that when cardiac emergencies happen, this technology save lives,” said Congressman Tim Kennedy. “The HEARTS Act will help provide schools with these life-saving devices and put CPR training in reach for more staff and families. I commend Senator Schumer for his work on this critical legislation, and Damar Hamlin for turning a harrowing experience into action that will save lives on and off the field.” “Over the past two years, we have worked tirelessly to make AEDs and CPR training more accessible in our community. Through our initiatives, we have supported the training of over one hundred thousand community members, empowering each of them with the knowledge and confidence to act in an emergency. Grants to schools for AEDs will ensure that students, staff, and families have access to critical resources when every second counts. Our team has experienced first-hand the impact of these life-saving measures with Damar Hamlin and Kim Pegula. This bill will make Western New York, and communities around the country safer, and ultimately save lives,” said Terry Pegula, Bills Owner/CEO/President.

The U.S. State Department says it has “taken steps to secure the U.S. embassy” in Syria following the collapse of the Assad government. This comes after the toppling of more than 50 years of a dictatorship there, showing an uncertain way forward for any new government. "The fall of the regime is a fundamental act of justice," President Joe Biden said Sunday , but warned that the significant change will also mark a period of uncertainty for Syria and the region. "As we all turn to the question of what comes next, the United States will work with our partners and the stakeholders in Syria to help them seize an opportunity to manage the risks," President Biden said. The Biden administration plans to lend its support to establishing a transitional government in Syria. The White House is in close communication with stakeholders in the region, including Jordan's King Abdullah. More conversations with leaders are expected in the days ahead. RELATED STORY | Military command of Syria's opposition says Damascus is 'free' of Bashar Assad's rule Other countries and groups have a shared interest in continued stability in Syria, but officials also acknowledged the power vacuum carries risks. White House officials told Scripps News the administration is focused on preventing the ISIS terror group from taking advantage of the situation. "One of the things that we're going to work hard to avoid is ISIS being able to exploit this situation and somehow try to revitalize," White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby said in an interview. "That is a message that we are sending to all the opposition groups through various means that this is not the opportunity — should not be the time — for a closer relationship, or any relationship, quite frankly, with Isis." "What we are backing is the Syrian people. And we want to make sure that again, through our interlocutors and through the United Nations, we're doing what we can to see legitimate governance there." The conflict in Syria has spanned multiple administrations and is often considered a proxy for the goals of other international actors, including Russia. Officials pointed in part to President Biden's support of Israel and Ukraine as factors that weakened Iran and Russia's ability to support Assad — and one senior administrator official explained that Assad's departure "changed the equation" in the Middle East. But Republican President-elect Donald Trump has indicated the U.S. relationship with Syria may change when he takes office. "Syria is a mess, but is not our friend," Trump wrote on social media over the weekend. "The United States should have nothing to do with it. This is not our fight." Kirby told Scripps News that for the remaining time the Biden Administration has to set U.S. foreign policy, it would continue its mission to suppress ISIS and support legitimate government in Syria.No. 16 Cincinnati tests efficient offense vs. Alabama StateSuspect in UnitedHealthcare CEO killing charged with murder in New York, court records show
