Matt Gaetz Asks Supporters for 'Help' After Ethics Committee Report ReleaseSeveral festive foods have been urgently pulled from supermarket shelves over fears they could contain a potentially deadly bacteria. According the Food Safety Authority of Ireland, several cheeses by Wicklow Farmhouse must be recalled due to the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes - a type of bacteria that causes a disease called listeriosis, which brings on flu-like symptoms, vomiting and diarrhoea in most people. In most severe cases of listeriosis, infections may spread to the bloodstream or brain, potentially causing meningitis or life-threatening sepsis. Those most at risk include the elderly, young children and anyone with a weakened immune systems, such as cancer patients. Pregnant women are also considered high risk, with almost one in five that get listeriosis suffering a miscarriage or stillbirth.

Anyone who has one of the below products at home is advised to not consume it, and return it for a full refund. Stores that stocked the affected cheese have since removed it from sale and will display point-of-sale notices. Cheese items recalled: A spokesperson for the FSAI said: "The cheese products listed are being recalled due to the possible presence of Listeria monocytogenes. Symptoms of Listeria monocytogenes infection can include mild flu-like symptoms, or gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea. In rare cases, the infection can be more severe, causing serious complications. Some people are more vulnerable to Listeria monocytogenes infections, including pregnant women, babies, and people with weakened immune systems, including the elderly. The incubation period (time between initial infection and first symptoms appearing) is on average 3 weeks but can range between 3 and 70 days. "Wholesalers/Distributors are requested to contact their affected customers and recall the implicated cheeses and provide a point-of-sale recall notice. Caterers should not use the implicated cheeses. Retailers are requested to remove the implicated cheeses from sale and display recall notices at point-of-sale. "Consumers are advised not to eat the implicated cheeses." According to the latest date from the FSAI, there were 18 reported cases of listeriosis in Ireland last year. In the EU, the number of reported listeriosis cases reached their highest levels since 2007 last year.

As a Black woman, she just couldn’t see herself helping to replicate the largest act of resistance against then-President Donald Trump’s first term in January 2017. Even in an election this year where Trump questioned his opponent’s race , held rallies featuring racist insults and falsely claimed Black migrants in Ohio were eating residents’ pets , he didn’t just win a second term. He became the first Republican in two decades to clinch the popular vote, although by a small margin. “It’s like the people have spoken and this is what America looks like,” said Smith, the Los Angeles-based founder of the advocacy social media agency, Get Social. “And there’s not too much more fighting that you’re going to be able to do without losing your own sanity.” After Trump was declared the winner over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris , many politically engaged Black women said they were so dismayed by the outcome that they were reassessing — but not completely abandoning — their enthusiasm for electoral politics and movement organizing. Black women often carry much of the work of getting out the vote in their communities. They had vigorously supported the historic candidacy of Harris, who would have been the first woman of Black and South Asian descent to win the presidency. Harris’ loss spurred a wave of Black women across social media resolving to prioritize themselves, before giving so much to a country that over and over has shown its indifference to their concerns. AP VoteCast , a survey of more than 120,000 voters, found that 6 in 10 Black women said the future of democracy in the United States was the single most important factor for their vote this year, a higher share than for other demographic groups. But now, with Trump set to return to office in two months, some Black women are renewing calls to emphasize rest, focus on mental health and become more selective about what fight they lend their organizing power to. “America is going to have to save herself,” said LaTosha Brown, the co-founder of the national voting rights group Black Voters Matter. She compared Black women’s presence in social justice movements as “core strategists and core organizers” to the North Star, known as the most consistent and dependable star in the galaxy because of its seemingly fixed position in the sky. People can rely on Black women to lead change, Brown said, but the next four years will look different. “That’s not a herculean task that’s for us. We don’t want that title. ... I have no goals to be a martyr for a nation that cares nothing about me,” she said. AP VoteCast paints a clear picture of Black women’s concerns. Black female voters were most likely to say that democracy was the single most important factor for their vote, compared to other motivators such as high prices or abortion. More than 7 in 10 Black female voters said they were “very concerned” that electing Trump would lead the nation toward authoritarianism, while only about 2 in 10 said this about Harris. About 9 in 10 Black female voters supported Harris in 2024, according to AP VoteCast, similar to the share that backed Democrat Joe Biden in 2020. Trump received support from more than half of white voters, who made up the vast majority of his coalition in both years. Like voters overall, Black women were most likely to say the economy and jobs were the most important issues facing the country, with about one-third saying that. But they were more likely than many other groups to say that abortion and racism were the top issues, and much less likely than other groups to say immigration was the top issue. Despite those concerns, which were well-voiced by Black women throughout the campaign, increased support from young men of color and white women helped expand Trump’s lead and secured his victory. Politically engaged Black women said they don’t plan to continue positioning themselves in the vertebrae of the “backbone” of America’s democracy. The growing movement prompting Black women to withdraw is a shift from history, where they are often present and at the forefront of political and social change. One of the earliest examples is the women’s suffrage movement that led to ratification in 1920 of the 19th Amendment to the Constitution , which gave women the right to vote. Black women, however, were prevented from voting for decades afterward because of Jim Crow-era literacy tests, poll taxes and laws that blocked the grandchildren of slaves from voting. Most Black women couldn’t vote until the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Black women were among the organizers and counted among the marchers brutalized on the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Alabama, during the historic march in 1965 from Selma to Montgomery that preceded federal legislation. Decades later, Black women were prominent organizers of the Black Lives Matter movement in response to the deaths of Black Americans at the hands of police and vigilantes. In his 2024 campaign, Trump called for leveraging federal money to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion programs in government programs and discussions of race, gender or sexual orientation in schools. His rhetoric on immigration, including false claims that Black Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, were eating cats and dogs, drove support for his plan to deport millions of people . Related Articles Tenita Taylor, a Black resident of Atlanta who supported Trump this year, said she was initially excited about Harris’ candidacy. But after thinking about how high her grocery bills have been, she feels that voting for Trump in hopes of finally getting lower prices was a form of self-prioritization. “People say, ‘Well, that’s selfish, it was gonna be better for the greater good,”’ she said. “I’m a mother of five kids. ... The things that (Democrats) do either affect the rich or the poor.” Some of Trump’s plans affect people in Olivia Gordon’s immediate community, which is why she struggled to get behind the “Black women rest” wave. Gordon, a New York-based lawyer who supported the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s presidential nominee, Claudia de la Cruz, worries about who may be left behind if the 92% of Black women voters who backed Harris simply stopped advocating. “We’re talking millions of Black women here. If millions of Black women take a step back, it absolutely leaves holes, but for other Black women,” she said. “I think we sometimes are in the bubble of if it’s not in your immediate circle, maybe it doesn’t apply to you. And I truly implore people to understand that it does.” Nicole Lewis, an Alabama-based therapist who specializes in treating Black women’s stress, said she’s aware that Black women withdrawing from social impact movements could have a fallout. But she also hopes that it forces a reckoning for the nation to understand the consequences of not standing in solidarity with Black women. “It could impact things negatively because there isn’t that voice from the most empathetic group,” she said. “I also think it’s going to give other groups an opportunity to step up. ... My hope is that they do show up for themselves and everyone else.” Brown said a reckoning might be exactly what the country needs, but it’s a reckoning for everyone else. Black women, she said, did their job when they supported Harris in droves in hopes they could thwart the massive changes expected under Trump. “This ain’t our reckoning,” she said. “I don’t feel no guilt.” AP polling editor Amelia Thomson DeVeaux and Associated Press writer Linley Sanders in Washington contributed to this report.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Special counsel Jack Smith moved to abandon two criminal cases against Donald Trump on Monday, acknowledging that Trump’s return to the White House will preclude attempts to federally prosecute him for retaining classified documents or trying to overturn his 2020 election defeat. The decision was inevitable, since longstanding Justice Department policy says sitting presidents cannot face criminal prosecution. Yet it was still a momentous finale to an unprecedented chapter in political and law enforcement history, as federal officials attempted to hold accountable a former president while he was simultaneously running for another term. Trump emerges indisputably victorious, having successfully delayed the investigations through legal maneuvers and then winning re-election despite indictments that described his actions as a threat to the country's constitutional foundations. “I persevered, against all odds, and WON," Trump exulted in a post on Truth Social, his social media website. He also said that “these cases, like all of the other cases I have been forced to go through, are empty and lawless, and should never have been brought.” The outcome makes it clear that, when it comes to a president and criminal accusations, nothing supersedes the voters' own verdict. In court filings, Smith's team emphasized that the move to end their prosecutions was not a reflection of the merit of the cases but a recognition of the legal shield that surrounds any commander in chief. “That prohibition is categorical and does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the Government’s proof, or the merits of the prosecution, which the Government stands fully behind,” prosecutors said in one of their filings. They wrote that Trump’s return to the White House “sets at odds two fundamental and compelling national interests: on the one hand, the Constitution’s requirement that the President must not be unduly encumbered in fulfilling his weighty responsibilities . . . and on the other hand, the Nation’s commitment to the rule of law.” In this situation, “the Constitution requires that this case be dismissed before the defendant is inaugurated,” they concluded. Smith’s team said it was leaving intact charges against two co-defendants in the classified documents case — Trump valet Walt Nauta and Mar-a-Lago property manager Carlos De Oliveira — because “no principle of temporary immunity applies to them.” Steven Cheung, Trump's incoming White House communications director, said Americans “want an immediate end to the political weaponization of our justice system and we look forward to uniting our country.” Trump has long described the investigations as politically motivated, and he has vowed to fire Smith as soon as he takes office in January. Now he will start his second term free from criminal scrutiny by the government that he will lead. The election case brought last year was once seen as one of the most serious legal threats facing Trump as he tried to reclaim the White House. He was indicted for plotting to overturn his defeat to Joe Biden in 2020, an effort that climaxed with his supporters' violent attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. But the case quickly stalled amid legal fighting over Trump’s sweeping claims of immunity from prosecution for acts he took while in the White House. The U.S. Supreme Court in July ruled for the first time that former presidents have broad immunity from prosecution, and sent the case back to U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan to determine which allegations in the indictment, if any, could proceed to trial. The case was just beginning to pick up steam again in the trial court in the weeks leading up to this year’s election. Smith’s team in October filed a lengthy brief laying out new evidence they planned to use against him at trial, accusing him of “resorting to crimes” in an increasingly desperate effort to overturn the will of voters after he lost to Biden. In asking for the election case to be dismissed, prosecutors requested that Chutkan do it “without prejudice,” raising the possibility that they could try to bring charges against Trump again after he leaves office. But such a move may be barred by the statute of limitations, and Trump may also try to pardon himself while in office. The separate case involving classified documents had been widely seen as legally clear cut, especially because the conduct in question occurred after Trump left the White House and lost the powers of the presidency. The indictment included dozens of felony counts accusing him of illegally hoarding classified records from his presidency at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, and obstructing federal efforts to get them back. He has pleaded not guilty and denied wrongdoing. The case quickly became snarled by delays, with U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon slow to issue rulings — which favored Trump’s strategy of pushing off deadlines in all his criminal cases — while also entertaining defense motions and arguments that experts said other judges would have dispensed with without hearings. In May, she indefinitely canceled the trial date amid a series of unresolved legal issues before dismissing the case outright two months later. Smith’s team appealed the decision, but now has given up that effort. Trump faced two other state prosecutions while running for president. One them, a New York case involving hush money payments, resulted in a conviction on felony charges of falsifying business records. It was the first time a former president had been found guilty of a crime. The sentencing in that case is on hold as Trump's lawyers try to have the conviction dismissed before he takes office, arguing that letting the verdict stand will interfere with his presidential transition and duties. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's office is fighting the dismissal but has indicated that it would be open to delaying sentencing until Trump leaves office. Bragg, a Democrat, has said the solution needs to balance the obligations of the presidency with “the sanctity of the jury verdict." Trump was also indicted in Georgia along with 18 others accused of participating in a sprawling scheme to illegally overturn the 2020 presidential election there. Any trial appears unlikely there while Trump holds office. The prosecution already was on hold after an appeals court agreed to review whether to remove Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis over her romantic relationship with the special prosecutor she had hired to lead the case. Four defendants have pleaded guilty after reaching deals with prosecutors. Trump and the others have pleaded not guilty.

Gov. Wes Moore said Monday that he doesn’t see the controversial Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project, a proposed 70-mile high-voltage transmission line through Carroll, Frederick and Baltimore counties, moving forward unless there’s a real process change. “I’m still not certain what the benefit is to Marylanders,” Moore said in an interview with Fox45 reporter Mikenzie Frost. “And I’m going to stand with the people on this. I’m going to stand with Marylanders. So, I’m looking forward to sitting down with PJM and PSEG. I want to hear what is the plan and I know there is nothing in front of the state right now, but I do want to be very clear unless there’s a real process change, I do not see how it moves forward.” The Public Service Enterprise Group has been contracted by PJM, the organization that operates and plans Maryland’s electric grid, to build the $424 million power line. But it’s the , the state agency that regulates public utilities, that has the authority to make the final decision on whether the project moves forward. “Unless there’s adjustments, I don’t see a plan moving forward,” Moore said. “I have grave concerns with this, and I’ve had them for a while.” Moore’s statement comes after he from residents earlier this month who said he has failed to intervene in the project. Meanwhile, the all-Republican Board of Carroll County Commissioners and Moore, a Democrat, may be from different political parties, but they have found common ground — opposition to the power line project. Both the county commissioners and the governor’s office issued separate statements Monday reaffirming their shared opposition to the controversial project and sharing that they have met on several occasions to discuss concerns. “Gov. Moore has been clear, Maryland needs sustainable and cost-effective infrastructure to ensure the reliability of the grid and build the economy of the future in the state, but the approach must be one that puts people first,” Carter Elliott IV, senior press secretary with the governor’s office, stated in an email. “The governor will continue to work with local leaders like President Ken Kiler to discuss the serious reservations about how this process has been conducted thus far, and the type of engagement he expects with our communities.” Commissioners were more specific in their statement concerning the number of times they have met with the governor. “Gov. Moore has met with Carroll County leadership numerous times regarding the Maryland Piedmont Reliability Project (MPRP),” the statement said. “We have been in contact with his staff on a weekly basis. The county executives from Baltimore and Frederick counties participated in the initial meeting with the governor on Aug. 16. During this meeting, the governor clearly stated that he wanted to work with the counties; he had serious concerns about the project and the process. “From that point forward, Carroll County’s communication with the governor and his staff has been continuous; in person, by phone, email, and in writing with three letters dated July 25, Aug. 20 and Sept. 30, which was jointly signed by Carroll and Baltimore counties. Most recently, the board of commissioners signed two county resolutions, one which calls for coordination with the federal government and the other which clearly states the board’s opposition to the MPRP.” The Carroll commissioners last met with the governor on Nov. 12. “His message continues to be consistent and has been communicated with all the Carroll County commissioners and senior staff,” the statement said. “We are pleased that he now makes that message to the public.”Maura Higgins ‘punished’ by I’m A Celebrity bosses with ‘birthday from hell’ in camp

A federal judge has dismissed a major case against Donald Trump that alleged he illegally sought to overturn the 2020 election. Jack Smith, the special prosecutor who brought the criminal case against Trump, had asked to have the charges dropped, citing a Justice Department policy that bans the prosecution of a sitting president. Judge Tanya Chutkan dismissed the case "without prejudice", meaning the charges could be refiled after Trump finishes his second term. Smith has also asked to have his case charging Trump with improperly storing classified documents dismissed. Trump had pleaded not guilty in both cases. “It has long been the position of the Department of Justice that the United States Constitution forbids the federal indictment and subsequent criminal prosecution of a sitting President,” Smith wrote in a filing in the election case. “This outcome is not based on the merits or strength of the case against the defendant,” Smith added in the six-page filing. After leaving office, Trump crossed into unprecedented legal territory for a former president, becoming the first to face a criminal trial and later conviction, in a case tied to a payment made to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels. At the beginning of the year, he faced nearly 100 criminal charges connected to the two federal cases and others. Then, the Supreme Court ruled this summer that he could not be prosecuted for "official acts" taken as president, and Trump went on to win the election a few months later. Now almost all those charges have been dropped, with a Georgia state prosecution currently on pause. Smith's request in the documents case, also seeking a dismissal "without prejudice", must also be approved by a judge, Trump posted on his social media site Truth Social that the federal cases were "empty and lawless, and should never have been brought". "It was a political hijacking, and a low point in the History of our Country that such a thing could have happened, and yet, I persevered, against all odds," he wrote. Vice-President-elect JD Vance said the prosecutions were "always political". "If Donald J. Trump had lost an election, he may very well have spent the rest of his life in prison," he wrote on social media. Trump had pledged to get rid of Smith as soon as he took office. Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in 2022 to take over the two federal investigations into Trump’s conduct. Smith has reportedly said he plans to step down next year. The request to dismiss Trump’s election subversion case marks an end to a lengthy legal saga. Smith had to refile the election-subversion charges against the former president based on the Supreme Court ruling that Trump was immune from some prosecution. The special counsel had argued in a revised indictment that Trump’s alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election results were related to his campaign and therefore not official acts. The Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit was also weighing an appeal from Smith to carry on with the classified documents case, in which Trump was accused of storing dozens of sensitive files in his Florida Mar-a-Lago resort and obstructing government efforts to retrieve them. Trump-appointee Judge Aileen Cannon initially dismissed it because she ruled Smith was improperly appointed to lead the case. When Trump won the 2024 election this month, Smith began to take steps to wind down both cases, though he said in the Monday filing that the documents appeal would continue for two other defendants in the classified documents case, Trump employees Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira. Trump’s return to the White House left several state-level criminal cases against him in limbo, too. His sentencing for his criminal conviction in the state of New York has been indefinitely delayed. Meanwhile, in Georgia, where Trump also faces election subversion charges, an appeals court is considering whether to overturn a previous ruling allowing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to stay on the case despite a relationship she had with a prosecutor she hired. Since Trump won the 2024 presidency, “his criminal problems go away”, said former federal prosecutor Neama Rahmani. “It’s well established that a sitting president can’t be prosecuted,” he said.Poni’s Big Year
49ers QB Brock Purdy resumes throwing but status for this week remains unknownNancy Mace, now targeting transgender lawmaker, called herself ‘pro-transgender rights’ in 2023is set to revolutionize the laptop market by introducing a device featuring the world’s first screen that will actually be sold to consumers. This breakthrough technology, which has long been teased by display , is expected to debut at CES in January. The news comes courtesy of renowned leaker Evan Blass, also known as , who shared leaked images of the upcoming Lenovo ThinkBook Plus with its rollable screen. Foldable Screens vs. Rollable Displays While foldable screens have been around for a few years and are becoming increasingly common in smartphones and laptops, rollable displays represent the next frontier in display technology. Rollable screens have been showcased in various tech demos, but no commercial product featuring such a screen has made its way to the market—until now. Lenovo is positioning itself to be the first company to bring this innovative design to the masses. At first glance, the new ThinkBook Plus looks like a standard laptop with a 3:2 aspect ratio display. It gives no hint of the cutting-edge technology hiding within. However, when extra screen space is needed, users can simply pull the display up. The display expands vertically to provide more viewing area. The ability to seamlessly transition between a standard and larger screen size has the potential to offer a magical experience, especially during the first few uses. This feature is sure to capture attention and leave a lasting impression, making it a standout feature in the laptop market. While the concept of a rollable screen is exciting, several questions remain, particularly regarding the display’s durability. As with many first-generation products, concerns about wear and tear over time could impact consumer confidence. Also, Lenovo has yet to reveal specific details about the screen’s technical specs, leaving potential buyers eager for more info. Price is a key point to think about. Early buyers of such cutting-edge tech often pay a premium. No doubt, this new Lenovo ThinkBook Plus will likely come with a hefty price tag. The “early adopter tax” is a known idea in tech. Many buyers may need to brace for a high cost to enjoy the sleek tools this laptop offers. Lenovo’s roll-up ThinkBook Plus is set to make waves at CES this Jan. This laptop marks the next step in screen tech, moving beyond fold-up screens into a fresh way to use laptops.
Special counsel moves to abandon election interference and classified documents cases against Trump
