Tesla CEO Elon Musk has expressed support for British-American influencer Andrew Tate, who has launched a political party called 'BRUV' (Britain Restoring Underlying Values) with ambitions to become the UK Prime Minister. In a recent video, Tate criticized the UK political establishment for its "generational failure," asserting that he is compelled to lead change himself due to a lack of faith in existing parties. He claimed that even if he does not win, his campaign will force political discourse on neglected issues. Musk endorsed Tate's sentiments with a brief comment, stating, "He's not wrong." Tate's party account on X (formerly Twitter) faced a brief suspension but was quickly restored, prompting Tate to thank Musk and reaffirm his mission. Additionally, Tate controversially declared himself the "unofficial Prime Minister" and voiced support for the annexation of Greenland by the U.S., calling resistance from Denmark "insanity." 
Published: Jan 10 2025, 2 pmeznews.inLos Angeles County is grappling with catastrophic wildfires that have engulfed half the city, consuming over 19,000 acres in Pacific Palisades and Malibu. The death toll has risen to at least 10, with fears it could increase further. Despite the devastation, air quality in LA remains surprisingly better than that of Delhi, with an Air Quality Index (AQI) of 154 compared to Delhi's alarming 372, which falls into the "very poor" category. This stark contrast has sparked discussions online, with users noting that wind patterns contribute to the disparity in air quality between the two cities. Currently, five fires are still active in LA, prompting evacuation orders for nearly 180,000 residents and warnings for an additional 200,000. The economic impact of the wildfires is expected to be severe, with insured losses potentially exceeding $20 billion and total damages estimated at $50 billion.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 6 pmeznews.inA conversation between former President Barack Obama and President-elect Donald Trump at the state funeral of ex-President Jimmy Carter has gone viral, prompting lip readers to analyze their exchange. Seated in the second row, Trump leaned in to discuss an urgent “matter of importance,” suggesting they find a quiet place later to talk. According to forensic lip reader Jeremy Freeman, Trump mentioned, "I've pulled out of that. It's the conditions. Can you imagine that?" speculating that their discussion may have revolved around the Iran nuclear deal, which Trump withdrew from in 2018. The funeral served as a rare moment of unity among five U.S. Presidents, including Obama and Trump, who have had a contentious relationship since Trump's election in 2016. The context of their conversation remains unclear, but it highlights the ongoing political dynamics in a divided America.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 6 pmeznews.inCanadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has recounted a lighthearted exchange with President-elect Donald Trump, where he jokingly proposed trading Vermont or California in response to Trump's interest in annexing Canada. During an MSNBC interview, Trudeau reflected on their meeting at Mar-a-Lago, noting that while he found the suggestion amusing, Trump did not share the sentiment. Trudeau has firmly rejected the notion of Canada becoming the 51st state, asserting, "There isn't a snowball's chance in hell" that such a scenario would occur. Amidst rising tensions over Trump's proposed 25% tariffs on Canadian goods, which Trudeau described as a significant concern, he emphasized the importance of Canada's national identity and the robust trading relationship between the two nations. Trudeau's handling of the tariff threats has faced criticism, leading to his resignation as leader of the Liberal Party, while Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland also stepped down over similar concerns.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 6 pmeznews.inItalian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has accused billionaire George Soros of destabilizing countries through political interference, contrasting him with Elon Musk, whose recent comments on European politics have drawn criticism. Meloni defended Musk's right to free speech, questioning whether the backlash stems from his wealth and conservative views. She asserted that while Soros uses his resources to influence political outcomes globally, Musk does not engage in such practices, labeling Soros as a genuine threat to democracy. Meloni also denied allegations that her government was close to signing a controversial cybersecurity deal with Musk's SpaceX and emphasized that she has not accepted funds from him, unlike those who have received support from Soros. Musk, who has faced scrutiny for his social media attacks on European leaders, responded to Meloni's remarks, claiming that Soros is "being defeated."
Published: Jan 10 2025, 6 pmeznews.inBangladesh's interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, clarified on Thursday that the reported extension of deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's visa by India is unrelated to Dhaka's request for her extradition to face trial. A foreign office spokesman emphasized that the request for Hasina's return as a Bangladeshi citizen stands independently of her visa status in India. Hasina, who fled to India on August 5, 2022, following widespread protests that ended her 16-year rule, faces arrest warrants from Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal for alleged crimes against humanity and genocide. The interim government has revoked her passport along with those of 96 others linked to enforced disappearances and killings. While India has acknowledged the extradition request, it has yet to respond. The spokesman noted that the timeline for India's reply remains uncertain as they await further communication.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 7 pmeznews.inSouth Korea's presidential security chief, Park Chong-jun, resigned on Friday amid ongoing investigations into his role in preventing the arrest of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol. Yoon's refusal to comply with authorities during a tense standoff last week has intensified the political crisis, marking a significant moment in South Korea's turbulent political landscape. As investigators prepare for another attempt to detain Yoon over his controversial martial law declaration, Park emphasized the need for a peaceful resolution, urging that there should be no violence during any arrest efforts. Meanwhile, rival protest groups continue to clash over Yoon's impeachment status, with the Constitutional Court set to begin hearings on January 14. Amidst these tensions, Yoon's ruling People Power Party has seen a rise in approval ratings, reflecting a complex and evolving political situation in the country.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 5 pmeznews.inMeta's recent decision to reduce fact-checking on Facebook and Instagram has raised significant concerns among global organizations, including the International Fact-Checking Network, which warned of "real-world harm" if the policy is expanded internationally. CEO Mark Zuckerberg justified the move by claiming that fact-checkers are "too politically biased" and that the program has led to excessive censorship. However, critics argue that this shift could exacerbate misinformation, especially in countries vulnerable to political instability and violence. The United Nations' rights chief emphasized that regulating harmful content is not censorship, while fact-checking experts fear the proliferation of hate speech could incite violence. The policy change coincides with a political landscape shift in the U.S., as Zuckerberg seeks to mend ties with President-elect Donald Trump, prompting further scrutiny regarding the motivations behind Meta's new approach to content moderation.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 5 pmeznews.inControversial social media figure Andrew Tate has launched a new political party in the UK, named the ‘BRUV’ (Britain Restoring Underlying Values), aiming for the Prime Minister's office. The party's inception has been marred by backlash over its extreme policies, including a zero-tolerance stance on illegal immigration, proposals for harsh penalties for knife crime offenders, and a plan to eliminate LGBTQ+ education from schools. Tate pledges accountability in leadership, threatening resignation if promises are not fulfilled within 45 days. His manifesto also includes cutting foreign aid, prioritizing healthcare for British citizens, and a cultural overhaul to reinforce British identity. However, Tate's political ambitions are overshadowed by ongoing legal troubles, including serious charges of human trafficking and sexual aggression in Romania and the UK, which he and his brother deny, claiming they are being targeted due to their wealth.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 3 pmeznews.inIndian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri's recent meeting with Taliban Acting Foreign Minister Amir Khan Muttaqi in Dubai has sparked concern in Pakistan, particularly following India's condemnation of Pakistan's airstrikes on Kabul. This diplomatic engagement reflects India's gradual re-establishment of ties with the Taliban, as it continues to provide humanitarian aid to Afghanistan, including a significant relief effort after a recent earthquake. Despite challenges posed by Pakistan's insistence on using its trucks for aid deliveries, India has resumed the Chabahar route to facilitate wheat shipments. Meanwhile, Pakistan faces rising terrorism and internal strife, exacerbated by the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) threatening businesses linked to the military. Amidst this turmoil, India aims to stabilize the region through economic development and collaboration with Russia and China, while Pakistan grapples with its deteriorating relations and the risk of escalating conflict in its border areas.
Published: Jan 10 2025, 4 pmeznews.inThe term "androgynosexual" is gaining traction as a way to describe individuals attracted to those exhibiting both masculine and feminine traits, regardless of their own gender. This orientation reflects a nuanced blend of qualities traditionally categorized as masculine or feminine, encompassing physical appearance and behavioral expressions. Unlike bisexuality and pansexuality, which refer to attraction to multiple genders or without regard to gender, androgynosexuality specifically focuses on the appeal of androgyny. As awareness of diverse sexual orientations grows, this term provides a framework for individuals to articulate their unique attractions, fostering a sense of belonging within the LGBTQ+ community. Dr. Luke Brunning from the University of Leeds notes that increased visibility and acceptance of non-binary and gender non-conforming individuals may influence the representation of androgyny and, consequently, shape sexual preferences. Ultimately, the definition of androgynosexuality remains flexible, allowing individuals to choose descriptors that resonate with their experiences.
