Attorney General Pam Bondi is signaling that a decade of Washington lawfare could soon face a reckoning, with 2026 possibly being the year the Justice Department's investigation reaches a decisive point.

In written responses to
Just the News released Sunday, Bondi said she has directed U.S. attorneys and federal agents to pursue what she described as "instances of government weaponization nationwide."

She framed the alleged abuses under the Obama and Biden administrations not as isolated episodes, but as part of a conspiracy that stretched from the origins of the Trump-Russia probe through later investigations targeting President Donald Trump and his supporters.

"At my direction, our U.S. Attorneys and federal agents are actively investigating instances of government weaponization nationwide," Bondi said, calling it "a ten-year stain on the country committed by high-ranking officials against the American people."

She added: "Under President Trump, we are fixing the damage and delivering justice."

Bondi's comments mirror a memo circulated last year by FBI Director Kash Patel, who argued alleged misconduct tied to the Russia collusion narrative could qualify as a continuing conspiracy, potentially letting prosecutors investigate conduct that would fall outside typical statutes of limitations.

Patel
found sensitive documents related to the origins of the Trump–Russia probe in a secret room at the bureau, a source told Newsmax in July to confirm a Fox News Digital report.

In an analysis of Bondi's remarks, the
Washington Examiner reported that federal prosecutors in South Florida could be preparing to take the next step, pointing to court records showing Chief Judge Cecilia Altonaga authorized a grand jury to convene in Fort Pierce beginning Jan. 12.

While the order does not specify the subject, the Examiner said it aligns with prior reporting that prosecutors were preparing a new grand jury that could set the stage for criminal charges tied to alleged misconduct in the Trump-era investigations.

...

In July, CIA Director John Ratcliffe suggested that statute-of-limitations concerns may not apply if investigators treat the alleged misconduct as a continuing conspiracy.

Ratcliffe said he believes former President Barack Obama and top intelligence officials conspired to undermine Trump and insisted the "last act" of a conspiracy determines when the clock starts.

By Associated Press - Thursday, January 1, 2026

CRANS-MONTANA, Switzerland — About 40 people were killed and another 115 injured, most of them seriously, during a New Year’s celebration in a Swiss Alpine bar, police said Thursday.

Authorities did not immediately have an exact count of the deceased.

The Crans-Montana resort is best known as an international ski and golf venue, and overnight, its crowded Le Constellation bar morphed from a scene of revelry into the site of potentially one of
Switzerland’s worst tragedies.

“Several tens of people” were presumed killed at the bar, Valais Canton police commander Frédéric Gisler said during a news conference.

Azerbaijan, Armenia quietly pull back from Moscow, edge closer to Washington after Trump peace deal

BAKU, Azerbaijan — The Trump-brokered peace agreement between Azerbaijan and Armenia is reshaping the South Caucasus and advancing U.S. strategic interests, despite lingering opposition in the U.S. Congress rooted in 1990s-era constituency politics.

The Washington Accords signed in August opened critical transport corridors and deepened U.S. partnerships in a region long dominated by
Russia and Iran

President Trump used executive authority to waive Cold War-era aid restrictions. His allies in Congress are moving to repeal them entirely.

“The
Trump administration demonstrated a lot of dedication to our agenda of peace,” said Hikmet Hajiyev, foreign policy adviser to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev. “What needs to be appreciated is Trump’s immediate reciprocity and full engagement.”

WORLD_ New Deep-Sea Drone Search Begins for Missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370

New Deep-Sea Drone Search Begins for Missing Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370

The renewed search deploys deep-sea drones under a ‘no find, no fee’ agreement to locate MH370’s wreckage.

A renewed deep-sea search for Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 began this week in the southern Indian Ocean, reviving hopes of solving aviation’s most enduring mystery more than a decade after the aircraft vanished with 239 people on board.

Malaysia’s Transport Ministry said on Dec. 31 that a search vessel, identified as the Armada 86 05, had arrived at a designated search area carrying two autonomous underwater vehicles capable of scanning vast stretches of seabed at extreme depths. The precise coordinates of the search zone were not disclosed.

The vessel prepared for deployment at Fremantle Port in Western Australia before heading into the Indian Ocean. While the Malaysian government did not formally name the contractor in its statement, the craft number cited by Malaysia’s Transport Ministry—Armada 86 05—identifies the ship as belonging to Ocean Infinity, a Texas-based marine robotics company that previously led an unsuccessful search for the missing plane in 2018.

WORLD_ US Rings in New Year as the World Welcomes 2026 (Troy Myers & Joseph Lord - THE EPOCH TIMES)

US Rings in New Year as the World Welcomes 2026

The largest New Years event, the ball drop in New York City, commemorated the end of 2025.

The East Coast rang in 2026 as the clock struck midnight on New Year’s Day.

As Dec. 31 changed over to Jan. 1, thousands of guests live in Times Square—and at least 1 billion people around the globe—watched the annual ball drop in New York City. 

The minute-long tradition is among the most viewed annual live events.

Other time zones in the United States are now counting down to midnight.

Americans living in the Pacific Time Zone have the longest wait in the contiguous United States, with New Year’s arriving three hours later in Los Angeles than it does in New York City.

Watch: Protests in Iran Are Spreading, As More Bravely Stand Up to the Regime

The protests in Iran are spreading.

There have been numerous protests over the years in Iran, but there are indications in this one that are giving many great hope, as we
enter a new year.


Demonstrations over the country’s economic crisis erupted in Tehran, the capital, on Sunday after the Iranian rial plunged to a record low against the dollar, forcing the head of the central bank to resign.

The protests soon morphed into wider outbursts against Ali Khamenei, the supreme leader, and his draconian restrictions on women, with students and shopkeepers demonstrating in a rare alliance against the government.


It's that last part that's perhaps most instructive. It's spread to various levels of society, including the students and shopkeepers. That's what happened in 1979, with the revolution that brought the mullahs to power.

It was the shopkeepers in Tehran who appear to have started it now; they closed their shops, and now others in areas around the country have done so as well. With over 50 percent inflation, how can anyone deal with that? But it's also the draconian policies, and the people have had enough.
