'True for several countries BUT not India': Meta apologises for Zuckerberg's 'incumbents' remark
Wednesday, 15 January 2025 Meta has apologised to India for CEO Mark Zuckerberg's claim that incumbents lost elections globally post-Covid, which was inaccurate for India. Shivnath Thakural of Meta India apologised for this 'inadvertent error.' Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw and Parliamentary Committee head Nishikant Dubey demanded clarification and an apology, emphasizing the positive governance record of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Senators Cory Booker and Ted Cruz engaged in a fiery exchange during a Senate Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on threats to federal judges. As Cruz accused Democrats of remaining silent during threats against conservative justices, Booker pushed back, calling the remarks “dangerous” and a “patent lie.” The tense back-and-forth highlighted rising political divisions over judicial safety, enforcement of protest laws, and the legacy of Trump-era rhetoric. The hearing, titled "The Supposedly Least Dangerous Branch," underscored growing concerns about the politicization of the judiciary and partisan responses to violence and intimidation.
