Following a difficult four days and 14 unsuccessful ballots, the U.S. House of Representatives finally chose GOP leader Kevin McCarthy of California as speaker in a dramatic 15th vote early on Saturday. This was the longest leadership vacuum in the chamber’s history.

McCarthy addressed GOP Reps. Matt Gaetz of Florida and Lauren Boebert of Colorado on the House floor in the middle of the 14th unsuccessful vote, at 11 p.m. ET Friday.

Despite making multiple concessions over the course of the week in order to gain their and other far-right Republicans’ support, they still refused to back McCarthy outright. Instead, they joined four other Republicans in voting “present” in the 15th and final ballot, which helped him capture the gavel by reducing the number of votes he needed to achieve a majority. He received 216 votes out of a total of 428.

McCarthy’s support dwindled after the first three days of voting, falling from 203 votes on Tuesday to 200 by the 11th vote on Thursday, far short of the number required to win the speakership. He requires the support of more than half of the legislators who vote, and with 222 Republicans in the House, he can only afford to lose a few votes.

Except for the 12th vote, when one member was absent due to minor surgery, all 212 Democrats backed House Minority Leader Hakeem Jefferies.

President Joe Biden issued a statement congratulating McCarthy on his election as House Speaker. “Jill and I congratulate Kevin McCarthy on his election as House Speaker,” Biden stated.

In addition, he said, “Voters made it clear that they expect Republicans to be ready to work with me as well. I am prepared to work with Republicans when I can..

Cold Wave: Weather extremes in northern India

January 7, 2023January 7, 2023 by Qurat ul Ain Khan Qurat ul Ain

Temperatures drops to sub 2-3 degrees Celsius in numerous states.
Dense fog in various areas of North India for the upcoming weeks
Local people struggle to meet their daily necessities

New Delhi, India: North India has been hit by a chilly to severe cold wave, with temperatures dropping to sub 2-3 degrees Celsius in numerous states. Chilly winds have added to the misery of those who are already suffering from a severe cold wave. The mercury readings in Delhi dropped even lower than in mountainous areas, raising public concern. Temperatures in some parts of Delhi have dropped as low as 2.2 degrees Celsius

The Meteorological Department (MeT) has forecast dense fog in various areas of North India for the upcoming weeks, which is particularly concerning. Only after those three days, there may be some relief from the nippy cold. The cold wave’s severity is only going to rise.

Temperatures plummeted to -6C (21F) in Indian-occupied Kashmir. The famous dal lake is partially frozen making it challenging for boatmen to transport people and visitors. Local people struggle to meet their daily necessities as a result of supply chain disruptions, water pipelines that have frozen in some areas of Kashmir, major road damage, and other factors.

Schedules for trains have also been impacted by dropping temperatures and dense fog. India Railways is regarded as the foundation of the nation’s transportation network and carries about 23 million passengers everyday. In northern India, some trains have been running late, sometimes by six to ten hours, which has caused travel arrangements to fall apart.

Additionally, the cold wave has also caused considerable health problems, particularly in Delhi, which also experiences high levels of pollution throughout the winter months.

Temperatures in Rajasthan’s northwestern state have also dropped dramatically. Farmers there say it has hindered their work and harvests.

The holy city of Amritsar has also been engulfed in fog in recent days. Trains and buses have been severely impacted.

According to Associates Press, four more high-end vehicles have been seized in connection with the investigation into Andrew Tate, who was detained in Romania last week on suspicion of rape and people trafficking.

In addition to the 11 vehicles seized in searches last week, prosecutors looking into the case seized four more vehicles on Thursday (Friday NZ time), according to Ramona Bolla, a spokeswoman for Romania’s anti-organized crime agency DIICOT.

According to Bolla, “they will be taken by the state and [will] cover the expense of the investigation and damages to the victims” if it is proven that they made money from human trafficking.

At least seven of the seized cars are registered to Tate and his brother Tristan Tate, who was also taken into custody last week in the same case. Local media reports that several of the seized cars are limited editions with a price tag of up to $300,000.
