In a statementto the pressThursday afternoon — not 24 hoursafter controversy ignitedon social media when he was photographed at a Houston airport heading to Cancún, Mexico, while his home state was recovering froma deadly winter storm— Cruz, 50, said that he was just trying to be a good father to his two young daughters.
Like millions of other Texas residents, Cruz said his family had lost their heat and power in the severe winter weather, which has been linked to more than 20 deaths.
"With school cancelled for the week, our girls asked to take a trip with friends. Wanting to be a good dad, I flew down with them last night and am flying back this afternoon," Cruz said in his statement.
It's unclear why he was traveling during theCOVID-19pandemic. Federal health officials recommend against it but advise that if people do travel they should test negative within three days, wear a mask, socially distance and avoid crowds.
Citing a source,The New York Timesreportedthat Cruz had headed to Mexico for "a previously planned family vacation."
NBC Newsreported, per a source, that Cruz scheduled his return flight to Texas on Thursday morning and cut short a trip that had originally been planned to last until Saturday.

When fear of covid-19 was at its peak, we were told it was killing 3.4% of those who got the disease, similar to the famous “Spanish flu” of 1918, which killed 60 million people worldwide. The New York Times editorial board said this was a world war 2 level problem that deserves an equal level of national commitment, they claimed that in the worst case scenario over 1.7 million Americans would die from the virus.
On cable news stations on the right and the left there was a constant ticker on the bottom of the screen showing how many cases and deaths there were, something we’d never seen until this pandemic. There were videos of people “panic buying” necessities at the start of the lockdowns or stay at home orders, & later videos of filled hospitals or body bags being carried out of hospitals.

President Joe Biden's first full day in office on Thursday focused on rolling out his national strategy to get the coronavirus pandemic under control and signing several executive actions, including ramping up vaccination supplies and requiring international travelers to provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test prior to traveling to the US.
"Our national strategy is comprehensive, it's based on science, not politics. It's based on truth, not denial, and it's detailed," Biden said, speaking from the White House. He said the 198-page plan is posted on WhiteHouse.gov.

- CNN - Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is proposing that the Senate give former President Donald Trump's legal team two weeks to prepare for the upcoming impeachment trial once the Senate receives the article and delay its start until mid-February.
McConnell's proposal to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer throws the timing of the trial further into doubt, though it remains to be seen if Democrats would go along with the plan. House Democrats could still send the impeachment article over to the Senate and start the trial the next day.
Asked if he had heard a response from Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, McConnell told CNN Wednesday, "Not yet but we continue to talk about it."

This is not unexpected.

El diplomático estadounidense que concluye su gestión el 20 de enero próximo, dijo en conferencia de prensa virtual, que para Estados Unidos es un tema de gran importancia, el controlar el flujo ilegal de armas hacia México.
“Es imprescindible que hagamos más esfuerzos compartidos, en los 2 lados de la frontera. Nosotros hemos ofrecido donar al gobierno de México, equipos no intrusivos, para controlar el tráfico de armas en las fronteras, y no se ha aceptado. Yo creo que hay más que se puede hacer en ambos lados de la frontera, pero creo que para mucha gente en México, este punto de las armas es solamente una cosa que se hace para regañar a Estados Unidos. Yo sí creo que hay más que podemos hacer y hay más que también México puede hacer para controlar eso”, expuso.
Landau, quien tras año y medio de representar a su país en México, llamó a que las dos naciones sigan en colaboración para detener el tráfico de armas, porque es de gran importancia.
Recordó lo que ocurrió en Culiacán, Sinaloa (cuando se pretendió detener al hijo del “Chapo”Guzmán), en donde quedó en evidencia el poder de las armas con las que cuenta el crimen organizado.
“Y esto no es sólo un problema para México, sino para Estados Unidos también. Espero que en el futuro este tema vaya a quedar muy alto en la lista de temas en la relación bilateral”, subrayó.

Trump said on Twitter Sunday that the number of coronavirus cases and deaths in the U.S. is "far exaggerated because of the CDC's ridiculous method of determination compared to other countries, many of whom report, purposely, very inaccurately and low."
Trump has frequently downplayed the severity of the pandemic. He has also scorned and ignored federal recommendations for containing the spread.
More than 20 million people have been infected in the United States and nearly 350,000 have died, or one out of every 950 U.S. residents, according to the CDC data on Sunday.

China reported 63 new COVID-19 cases on Thursday, marking the biggest rise in daily cases since 127 cases were reported on July 30, according to Reuters.
Among the 63 new confirmed cases, 52 were locally transmitted and 11 were imported.
The majority of new cases have been reported in Hebei province, which surrounds Beijing. According to China Daily, Hebei has recorded new local cases for the past five consecutive days and called for strict measures to thwart the spread of the virus.
On Thursday, the provincial health commission reported 51 confirmed cases and 69 asymptomatic carriers. All but one of the newly confirmed cases come from the provincial capital, Shijiazhuang, which entered ‘wartime mode’ on Tuesday. As of Wednesday morning, all communities and villages in the city have been under closed-off management, as cited by China Daily.
Health authorities plan to test all 10.39 million residents in Shijiazhuang, which started on Wednesday. So far, seven out of 600,000 samples have tested positive for COVID-19.

Last month, Beijing said it would extend the quarantine period from 14 to 21 days for overseas arrivals, according to Global Times.
A new announcement by the Beijing Information Office on January 5 gave a clearer picture of what exactly these new rules entail.
Here, we offer some key points of Beijing’s new ‘14+7’ quarantine policy:
1. If any person, item, or part of the surrounding environment on an inbound flight tests positive for COVID-19 at customs, all passengers must quarantine for 14 days. Once the 14-day period has been completed with no positive COVID-19 test, arrivals can apply for seven-day home quarantine if they meet certain conditions. If conditions are not met, they must undergo a further seven-day quarantine in the same location.

China will ensure the COVID-19 vaccines be affordable to all Chinese residents. The price will depend on the scale of use but the premise is that it would eventually offer free access to the vaccines, Chinese health officials said on Thursday.

The next U.S. administration should rectify "costly and consequential" federal policies which have damaged American universities' ability to attract top academic talent from around the globe, urged Lee C. Bollinger, president of Columbia University.
In an open letter to U.S. President-elect Joe Biden on Thursday, Bollinger said thousands of international students are unable to return to the United States. "Or, if they are able to gain entry, they face onerous restrictions that threaten their ability to pursue their academic careers."

The United States lost 15,000 people to COVID-19 last week, the deadliest seven days since April, and health officials warn that the worst is yet to come.
The Christmas holiday season could pose more risks than the Thanksgiving holiday in terms of the virus spreading, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the U.S. government's top infectious disease expert.
Christmas "extends that vulnerable period by two to three times," Fauci said in remarks made at the Milken Institute's Future of Health summit on Monday. Thanksgiving travel and gatherings last only for a couple of days, while Christmas events may start from late December through New Year events.

US public health officials are calling on drug makers to release detailed information on the side effects of their coronavirus vaccines after participants in trials complained of high fever, body aches, headaches and exhaustion.
Dr. Sandra Fryhofer of the American Medical Association fears that as both Pfizer's and Moderna's vaccines need to be taken in two separate doses that if people have severe side effects with the first shot, that could deter them from getting the second one.

Provincial governments have begun placing orders for domestically produced COVID-19 vaccines as 600 million doses are said to be ready for market in the coming weeks, GRT Radio reports.
China has three different vaccines in Phase 3 human trials, out of 14 vaccines that have reached this stage worldwide. However, China has been administering the experimental vaccines to high-risk workers, such as front-line medical staff and customs and border personnel, since as early as July in a move that garnered some international criticism.
Chinese health officials stated in September that they had received approval from the World Health Organization (WHO) for their emergency use program, according to CNN.

"My Administration will not allow Federal tax dollars to fund cities that allow themselves to deteriorate into lawless zones," said the memo, which was released by the White House. The memo instructs Attorney General William Barr to develop a list of "anarchist jurisdictions" that "permitted violence and the destruction of property to persist and have refused to undertake reasonable measures" to restore order.

As of 6 p.m. BJT Sunday, the total number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in the U.S. has reached 6,245,866, with 188,538 deaths, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.
The latest prediction results of the coronavirus epidemic model released by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) of the University of Washington in the United States show that the global death toll from the coronavirus pandemic could triple by year’s end, causing 1.9 million deaths. The U.S. death toll from the coronavirus pandemic could drive to 410,000.
IHME Director Christopher Murray said that seasonal factors and the decline in public awareness of the coronavirus epidemic are the main reasons for the increase in deaths. He reminded the public not to take it lightly, saying that the worst is yet to come, and we are facing a fatal December. In addition, he also pointed out that scientific evidence proves that wearing masks, maintaining social distance and restricting crowd gathering can effectively prevent the spread of the virus.

According to a Reuters report, a Pentagon spokeswoman said on Friday the U.S. Defense Department was working with other agencies to determine whether to make a move against SMIC, which would force U.S. suppliers to seek a difficult-to-obtain license before shipping to the company.
Reports said earlier this week that the Pentagon had proposed placing SMIC on the Commerce Department's entity list, which includes more than 275 China-based firms deemed "national security risks" by the U.S. government. The Trump administration has used the entity list to hit several Chinese giants including Huawei, ZTE and Hikvision.
SMIC is the largest Chinese chip manufacturer and made its trading debut on Shanghai's Nasdaq-style STAR Market in July, marking China's biggest IPO in a decade. The Shanghai-headquartered chipmaker was listed in Hong Kong and New York in 2004 and delisted from the U.S. last year due to sluggish demand for its shares.
As one of Huawei's manufacturers, SMIC has been embroiled in U.S. restrictions on Chinese tech firms since May. At the time, the United States placed new restrictions on smartphone maker Huawei, which prevent its suppliers from accessing services from American companies.

A Camarena lo ejecutó la CIA, no Caro Quintero (VIDEO)
Revista Proceso
Una historia que parece sacada de una compleja novela de espionaje acaba de estallar en la televisión estadunidense: Enrique Kiki Camarena, el policía de la DEA asesinado en México en febrero de 1985, aparentemente no fue víctima del capo mexicano Rafael Caro Quintero sino de un oscuro integrante de la CIA. Este sujeto fue el encargado de silenciar al agente antinarcóticos por una grave razón: había descubierto que Washington se asoció con el narcotraficante y usaba las ganancias del trasiego de estupefacientes para financiar las actividades de la contrarrevolución nicaragüense.
WASHINGTON (Proceso).- Tres exagentes federales estadunidenses decidieron acabar con un silencio de 28 años y confiaron simultáneamente a este semanario y a la cadena estadunidense Fox News una información “bomba”: Enrique Kiki Camarena no habría sido asesinado por Rafael Caro Quintero –capo que purgó una sentencia por ese crimen– sino por un agente de la CIA. La razón: el integrante de la DEA descubrió que su propio gobierno colaboraba con el narco mexicano en su negocio ilícito.
