Scott Kowalchyk/CBS/Getty ImagesPink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters spoke on behalf of Russia at the UN security council Wednesday. He regurgitated conspiracies about the Ukraine war, calling it “illegal” in the same breath. AdvertisementDuring Wednesday’s meeting, Waters struck a more flimsy tone, criticizing Russia on one hand and obfuscating its role on the other. I’m on the fucking list,” Waters told Rolling Stone in October 2022.

Biden’s Final Act in a Unified Washington: a $1.7 Trillion Spending Bill

Photo by Alex Wong/Getty ImagesIn the final act of the Democratic Party’s unified control of Washington, President Joe Biden is set to sign a $1.7 trillion spending bill next week, funding the federal government through most of next year and marking the end of a historically productive Congress for Democrats. After the Senate passed the “omnibus” spending bill Thursday night by a bipartisan 68-29 margin, the House passed the bill on Friday along far more partisan lines, 225-20. The 4,155-page bill is a sweeping measure that provides $772.5 billion for domestic priorities and $858 billion for defense. Not only did Democrats finish off their unified control of Congress with a spending bill chock full of their wishlist items, they also were able to pass some major legislative accomplishments during Biden’s first two years in Congress. Democrats passed and signed into law a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, a $433 billion bill tackling climate change and lowering the cost of prescription drugs, a $1.9 trillion COVID-relief bill, the most significant gun safety reform bill in nearly 30 years, an overhaul of the U.S.

Jan. 6 panel shutting down after referring Trump for crimes

WASHINGTON (AP) — The House Jan. 6 committee is shutting down, having completed a whirlwind 18-month investigation of the 2021 Capitol insurrection and sent its work to the Justice Department along with a recommendation for prosecuting former President Donald Trump. It is unclear whether the GOP-led House could enforce the provision and what they would do with the materials. The panel formally or informally interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, collected more than 1 million documents and held 10 well-watched hearings. The panel recommended that the Justice Department prosecute Trump on four crimes, including aiding an insurrection. Lofgren says she believes the committee made clear that Trump was responsible for the insurrection and “it was not done at the last minute.”“I think we proved that and we sent it all to the Department of Justice,” Lofgren said.
