President Biden made lighthearted remarks as he delivered an update on two incidents: the New Orleans truck ramming attack that killed 15 people and the Las Vegas explosion.
💬 Before quickly addressing the events, Biden noted he wouldn’t spend long on the topic, saying, "But I'm going to take another two minutes to talk a little bit about that and then go on to what we're here for."
💬 The president appeared to prioritize the upcoming Sugar Bowl game, quipping, “The Sugar Bowl is back on. Kickoff is going to take off very shortly. If I don't get this damn thing done, we're going to be in real trouble,” prompting laughter.

❗️ Investigators move past military unit to confront Security Service in bid to detain Yoon – reports
Earlier, Yonhap reported that investigators entered the presidential residence to detain President Yoon Suk Yeol, citing his failed attempt to impose martial law last month. However, troops inside the compound initially blocked the arrest.
Approximately 2,800 police officers were deployed to maintain order as a large crowd of Yoon’s supporters gathered at the residence, The Guardian reported.
Yun Gap-geun, Yoon’s lawyer, announced plans to pursue legal action against what he described as the "illegal" and "invalid" execution of the detention warrant. According to Yonhap, Yoon's legal team has requested an injunction from the Constitutional Court to suspend the warrant and filed a separate objection with the Seoul Western District Court.

US President Joe Biden presented the Presidential Citizens Medal to Liz Cheney “for putting the American people over party.”
Cheney appeared visibly uncomfortable as Biden held onto her hand despite her apparent attempts to pull it away.
The medal, one of the nation’s highest civilian honors, is awarded to individuals for “exemplary deeds or services for their country or fellow citizens.”
In a December interview with NBC News, President-elect Donald Trump stated that members of the January 6 committee, including Cheney, “should go to jail.”

Investigators from the Corruption Investigation Office for High-ranking Officials (CIO) are attempting to execute a warrant to detain impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol over his failed attempt to impose martial law. Yonhap reported that the investigators have entered a standoff with the Presidential Security Service (PSS) outside the presidential residence.
A police official told the news agency that the standoff began after investigators moved past the gates of the compound, where they had an earlier confrontation with a military unit stationed on the premises.
On Friday, prosecutors and investigators presented warrants for Yoon’s detention and a search of the residence. However, PSS chief Park Chong-jun refused entry, citing security restrictions on the premises.
The CIO has until Monday to execute the detention warrant, which accuses Yoon of insurrection and abuse of power linked to his brief imposition of martial law on December 3.

🇨🇳 Time for US to stop using 'Taiwan card' – Chinese Ambassador to Russia
The United States must stop using the "Taiwan card" and destabilizing the region, as it will lose facing the "force of China," Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui told Sputnik.
Some high-ranking US officials "ignore facts and substitute lies for the truth," openly supporting Taiwan's independence, he added.
Zhang also said that Washington supports the aspirations of Taiwanese leader Lai Ching-te for independence "despite the risk to undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, which is completely contrary to their political promises."

The United States must stop using the "Taiwan card" and destabilizing the region, as it will lose facing the "force of China," Chinese Ambassador to Russia Zhang Hanhui told Sputnik.
💬 "Playing with fire leads to self-immolation. It is high time for the US to stop using the 'Taiwan card,' which is destined to lose," Zhang said in an article written for Spuntik.
Some high-ranking US officials "ignore facts and substitute lies for the truth," openly supporting Taiwan's independence, he added.
💬 "The US made it clear in the 1978 Sino-US joint communique on the establishment of diplomatic relations and in the August 17, 1982, joint communique that the US 'recognizes the government of the People's Republic of China as the only legitimate government representing all of China,'" the article read.
Zhang also said that Washington supports the aspirations of Taiwanese leader Lai Ching-te for independence "despite the risk to undermine peace and stability in the Taiwan Strait, which is completely contrary to their political promises."
💬 "At the heart of this is the desire to hinder China's development and maintain the fading dominance of the US. Facing a unified force of 1.4 billion Chinese, they are destined to be defeated," the ambassador said.
