Iowa Special Election Could Shift State Senate Power

Voters in Iowa are heading to the polls Tuesday in a holiday-week special election that could reshape power in the state Senate. Democrat Renee Hardman faces Republican Lucas Loftin for a vacant seat representing Des Moines’ suburbs. A Republican win would restore the chamber’s two-thirds supermajority, giving the party easier control over confirmations and special legislative actions. A Democratic victory would prevent that supermajority as lawmakers prepare for the 2026 legislative session.

Texas Man Charged In ISIS-Related Terror Case

A 21-year-old man from Texas has been federally charged with international terrorism after authorities say he provided bomb-making materials and money to people he believed were linked to the Islamic State.

Garza is scheduled for a probable cause and detention hearing on Tuesday, where prosecutors are expected to outline their evidence. If convicted, Garza could face up to 20 years in federal prison. Court records do not list an attorney for Garza, and the federal public defender’s office in Dallas did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Trump warns Iran not to rebuild nuclear program

President Trump is putting Iran on notice. As he welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu for talks in Florida, the president warned Iran against reconstituting its nuclear program. He said the U.S. military would strike Iran hard if it attempts to rebuild that program. The president has insisted that Tehran’s nuclear capabilities were “obliterated” after military strikes in June. But Israeli officials have expressed concern about Iran rebuilding its long-range missile capability.

Trump says US hit drug boat loading facility in Venezuela

President Donald Trump said on Monday that the U.S. had "hit" an area in Venezuela where boats are loaded with drugs, marking the first known time Washington has carried out land operations in Venezuela since a pressure campaign began against President Nicolas Maduro's government. "There was a major explosion in the dock area where they load the boats up with drugs," Trump said. "We hit all the boats, and now we hit the area... it's the implementation area. That's where they implement, and that is no longer around." It was not immediately clear what target was hit nor which part of the U.S. government acted. Asked if the CIA had carried out the attack, Trump said: "I don't want to say that. I know exactly who it was but I don't want to say who it was." Trump has previously said that he has authorized the CIA to carry out covert operations in Venezuela. On a radio show last week, Trump made vague comments about an apparent U.S. operation against a "big facility" in Venezuela. The Central Intelligence Agency, the White House and the Pentagon have not publicly elaborated on those comments and declined to comment on questions posed by Reuters. The Venezuelan government has not commented on the incident Trump described and there have been no independent reports from Venezuela of it. Primazol, a chemical plant in Zulia state which suffered a fire on Christmas Eve, has denied online rumors that the blaze was what Trump alluded to in his comments. The company also said the fire was quickly extinguished and was under investigation. Nearby residents told Reuters they heard an explosion, saw the fire and smelled chlorine. The Venezuelan communications ministry, which handles all press requests for the government, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday. Trump's administration has previously touted its success in taking out suspected drug trafficking vessels, and the Pentagon has posted footage of several of its strikes on social media. The lack of response by U.S. national security agencies had raised questions about whether the incident Trump mentioned was carried out covertly. Such an operation would likely limit the ability of U.S. officials to speak on the matter. Last month, Reuters reported that the U.S. was poised to launch a new phase of Venezuela-related operations, as the Trump administration escalates pressure on Maduro's government. At the time, two U.S. officials said covert operations would likely be the first part of the new action against Maduro. The U.S. mission has primarily focused on military strikes against suspected drug trafficking vessels and has prompted intense oversight from Congress. More than 100 people have been killed in more than 20 strikes in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific. Earlier this month, U.S. military leaders briefed lawmakers on an incident in September in which an American strike killed 11 people but left several survivors who were killed in a second strike ordered by Admiral Frank Bradley. Congressional Democrats have questioned whether the second strike was conducted in accordance with international law. Trump's administration has overseen a massive U.S. military buildup in the Caribbean, including more than 15,000 troops.

Trump angry about Ukraine's alleged attack on Putin

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Ukraine had tried to attack Putin's residence in the Novgorod region west of Moscow on December 28-29 with 91 long-range drones which were all destroyed by Russian air defenses. No one was injured and there was no damage, he said in comments reported by Russian media. Trump says he learned from Putin about Ukraine's alleged attack and is 'very angry about it' "I don't like it. It's not good. I heard about it this morning. You know who told me about it? President Putin told me about it. Early in the morning he said he was attacked. It's no good. It's no good...Don't forget, you know, the Tomahawks. I stopped the Tomahawks. I didn't want that. Because we're talking about, you know, it's a delicate period of time. This is not the right time. It's one thing to be offensive because they're offensive. It's another thing to attack his house. It's not the right time to do any of that and can't do it. And I learned about it from President Putin and I was very angry about it," Trump told reporters in Florida Monday. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha said on social media the attack was a fabrication intended to create a pretext for more Russian attacks on Ukraine and to undermine the peace process. He urged world leaders to condemn Russia over its accusations.
