City Council Special Meeting - Jan 27 2025
 

The Defense Secretary is discrediting the editor of The Atlantic about texted plans to strike Houthi targets. Pete Hegseth told reporters Monday that Jeffrey Goldberg is "deceitful" and has "made a profession of peddling hoaxes." Goldberg claims he received accidental group chat messages from Hegseth about plans to bomb the targets in Yemen.        Multiple major wildfires are burning in the Carolinas. The Table Rock fire in South Carolina started Friday and has burned 13-hundred acres with zero containment. In North Carolina, two wildfires are burning uncontained in the western part of the state.        President Trump says he's nominating Susan Monarez to lead the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. She had already been serving as the CDC's acting director. Trump made the announcement on Truth Social saying she brings decades of experience championing innovation, transparency, and strong public health systems.        The White House claims Mahmoud Khalil covered up the fact he worked for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency in his application to become a permanent resident. Khalil is a legal immigrant and a former Columbia University student being targeted after participating in pro-Palestinian protests. The Trump administration is detaining him under a rarely-used law that allows the Secretary of State to declare someone a risk to the nation's interests.        Tiger Woods and Vanessa Trump are making their relationship status public. Rumors have been swirling for awhile now that the billionaire golf legend and the ex-wife of President Trump's oldest son, Don Jr., had been dating. Woods posted photos of the two together on X over the weekend.        Disney's "Snow White" is taking the top spot at the box office this weekend. The musical starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot made an estimated 43-million dollars in its debut. In a distant second place, spy thriller "Black Bag" brought in an estimated four-point-four million dollars.
