Ekaterina Blinova | President Joe Biden and his Mexican counterpart Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador pledged to use “innovative approaches” to tackle illegal immigration on January 9, according to the White House. Why did it take so long for Biden to start dealing with the US border crisis? 💬 “President Biden has had two years to try to solve this problem, and it has only gotten worse,” Jessica M. Vaughan, director of policy studies at the Washington DC-based Center for Immigration Studies, told Sputnik. “We can only conclude that he does not want to solve it; in fact, he does not consider it to be a serious problem at all. Allowing unprecedented numbers of illegal migrants into the United States to remain indefinitely apparently is his actual objective, no matter the consequences for the communities that are forced to accommodate the new arrivals, no matter the difficulty for those Americans and legal immigrants who must compete with the migrants for jobs and services, no matter the national security and public safety risks, and no matter the dangers to the safety of the migrants. All that matters is having more migration, legal or illegal."

Critics say the episode is just the latest debacle that suggests Pete Buttigieg is ill-equipped and under-prepared to helm the US Department of Transportation. | The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) claims a “damaged database file” is to blame after thousands of flights were canceled or delayed Wednesday following a catastrophic failure of a computerized aircraft advisory system. 💬 “We are continuing a thorough review to determine the root cause of the Notice to Air Missions (NOTAM) system outage,” the FAA wrote Wednesday night in a post on Twitter. “Our preliminary work has traced the outage to a damaged database file.” ● NOTAM provides pilots with vital updates on weather conditions, runway closures, or other information that may be needed to ensure passengers’ safety. ● There is “no evidence” the system’s failure was the result of a cyber attack, the FAA says. ● An advisory issued by the administration Tuesday indicates that NOTAM was out of service as early as Tuesday night. With flights beginning to pick up Wednesday morning, the FAA took the extraordinary step of halting all domestic flights at 7 a.m., and the system wasn’t restored until nearly two hours later. However, the chaos didn’t end there. The hourslong stoppage had a ripple effect on not only the flights that were immediately affected, but also on other departures scheduled for the rest of the day.

Another powerful storm is moving into Southern California after forcing thousands to the north to evacuate, prompting dozens of water rescues, causing widespread damage and bringing to 14 the tally of people killed in the state's parade of storms in recent weeks. | More than 11 million people in western Los Angeles, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties were under a flood warning Tuesday morning, while some 34 million people across California -- about 10% of all Americans -- are under flood watches as the risk of mudslides also shifts to the Los Angeles and San Diego areas. Tuesday's storms are just the latest in a wave of atmospheric rivers to thrash the West Coast in recent weeks. The stormy parade has led to dangerous flooding and mudslides and prompted evacuations across the state, with much of California getting 400% to 600% above-average rainfall totals in that time. Over 24 hours as of Monday night, 2 to 7 inches of rain had fallen across much of the state's lower elevations.

The Republican-controlled House passed a bill Monday night that would slash tens of billions of funding dollars for the Internal Revenue Service. | The bill is unlikely to pass the Democratic-led Senate, but its presence at the top of the House GOP agenda suggests that IRS funding could be a reoccurring sticking point in future budget clashes. It's the first piece of legislation passed in the 118th Congress. Driving the news: The bill that passed 221-210 along party lines targets the IRS funding boost in the Democrats' Inflation Reduction Act passed last year. The big picture: Republican lawmakers during last year's midterm election zeroed in on the increase in IRS funding — about $80 billion over 10 years. GOP lawmakers falsely claimed that President Biden was hiring 87,000 IRS agents to investigate everyday Americans, per the New York Times. Between the lines: The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office released a report that found House Republicans' IRS legislation would increase the budget deficit by $114 billion over 10 years. What they're saying: The White House criticized the measure as "reckless" in a statement Monday before the vote.

A Russian nuclear submarine capable of launching the country’s hypersonic missile will enter naval service within three years, defense ministry officials said Thursday.

Hypersonic missiles are capable of maneuvering while flying faster than sound. In the past, Russian officials have claimed their Zircon missiles could accelerate to Mach 9, more than 6,900 miles per hour. The Russian navy conducted test launches of its Zircon missiles from a submarine in October, TASS reported.
