Jake Paul afirma tener ‘doble fractura de mandíbula’ tras su derrota ante Anthony Joshua
MIAMI (AP) — Jake Paul sufrió una “doble fractura de mandíbula” en su derrota ante el excampeón de peso pesado Anthony Joshua, confirmó el sábado el YouTuber.
Joshua ganó por nocaut en el sexto asalto la pelea sobre Paul, quien más tarde publicó una radiografía que mostraba la mandíbula rota en dos lugares.
“Doble fractura de mandíbula”, escribió en Instagram. “Denme a Canelo en diez días”. En una publicación separada desde lo que parecía ser una habitación de hospital, añadió: “Gracias por todo el apoyo, estoy bien”.
Joshua terminó el combate de peso pesado con un poderoso golpe a la mandíbula de Paul, enviando al estadounidense a la lona por cuarta y última vez. Paul recibió el conteo mientras luchaba por ponerse de pie.
Se habían planteado preocupaciones antes del combate debido a la disparidad en tamaño y habilidades. Paul pesó 216 libras, y Joshua 243 libras. El británico dos veces campeón de peso pesado tiene uno de los golpes más poderosos de la élite del deporte.

Russian strike on Odesa kills 8 as US hosts a Kremlin envoy for talks on peace plan
KYIV, Ukraine — A Russian missile strike on port infrastructure in Odesa in southern Ukraine killed eight people and wounded 27, Ukraine’s emergency service said Saturday, as a Kremlin envoy was set to travel to Florida for talks on a U.S.-proposed plan to end the nearly four-year war.
The discussions are part of the Trump administration’s monthslong push for peace that also included meetings with Ukrainian and European officials in Berlin earlier this week. Ukraine’s chief negotiator said late Friday that his delegation had completed separate meetings in the U.S. with American and European partners.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said much will depend on the U.S. posture after discussions with the Russians.
Speaking at a news conference in Kyiv with Portuguese Prime Minister Luís Montenegro, Zelenskyy said that “the key question remains how the United States responds after consultations with the Russians. At this point, I honestly don’t know, but I will know later today.”
Ukraine and Portugal signed an agreement to establish joint production of maritime drones,Zelenskyy said. “This is one of the most promising areas of defense cooperation. What matters now is delivering results, and all parts of Europe must have sufficient capabilities to counter any threats,” he said.
Ukraine targets a Russian oil rig and a patrol ship
Some of those wounded in Odesa were on a bus at the center of the strike late Friday, the emergency service said in a Telegram post. Trucks caught fire in the parking lot and cars were also damaged.
The port was struck with ballistic missiles, said Oleh Kiper, the head of the Odesa region.
Moscow did not immediately acknowledge reports of the attack. The Russian Defense Ministry said Saturday that over the previous day, it had struck unspecified “transport and storage infrastructure used by the Ukrainian armed forces,” along with energy facilities and those supplying Kyiv’s war effort.
Elsewhere, Ukrainian drones hit a Russian oil rig, the military patrol ship Okhotnik and other facilities, Ukraine’s General Staff said in a statement Saturday. It said the ship was patrolling in the Caspian Sea near an oil and gas production platform. The extent of the damage was still being clarified, it said.
The drilling platform at the Filanovsky oil and gas field as also hit. The facility is operated by Russian oil giant Lukoil. Ukrainian drones also struck a radar system in the Krasnosilske area of Crimea, which Russia illegally annexed from Ukraine in 2014.
There was no immediate comment from the Russian government or Lukoil. The company is one of two Russian oil majors — alongside state-owned Gazprom — targeted by recent U.S. sanctions that aim to deprive Moscow of oil export revenue that helps it sustain the war.
Kyiv has used similar arguments to justify months of long-range strikes on Russian oil infrastructure, which it says both funds and directly fuels the Kremlin’s all-out invasion, soon to enter its fifth year.
Trump’s peace push set to continue Saturday
U.S. President Donald Trump has unleashed an extensive diplomatic push to end the war, but his efforts have run into sharply conflicting demands by Moscow and Kyiv.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has recently signaled he is digging in on his maximalist demands on Ukraine, as Moscow’s troops inch forward on the battlefield despite huge losses.
On Friday, Putin voiced confidence that the Kremlin would achieve its goals militarily if Kyiv doesn’t agree to Russia’s conditions in peace talks.
European Union leaders on Friday agreed to provide 90 billion euros ($106 billion) to Ukraine to meet its military and economic needs for the next two years, although they failed to bridge differences with Belgium that would have allowed them to use frozen Russian assets to raise the funds. Instead, they were borrowed on capital markets.
After almost four years of war, the International Monetary Fund estimates that Ukraine will need 137 billion euros ($161 billion) in 2026 and 2027. The government in Kyiv is on the verge of bankruptcy, and desperately needs the money by spring.
Meanwhile, Kirill Dmitriev, who heads Russia’s sovereign wealth fund, is set to meet with Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner in Miami on Saturday, according to a U.S. official. The official spoke on condition of anonymity to preview a meeting that hasn’t yet been publicly announced.
The official said Witkoff and Kushner will sit down with Dmitriev, after meetings with Ukrainian and European officials in Berlin for talks on U.S. security guarantees for Kyiv, territorial concessions and other aspects of the American-authored plan.
Ukraine’s chief negotiator Rustem Umerov said late Friday that a Ukrainian delegation had met with American and European partners in the U.S. He gave few details, but said they agreed to continue “joint work in the near future.”
Asked about the meeting in Miami, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday that Moscow was preparing for contacts with the U.S. to learn about the results of the meetings in Berlin, but he didn’t give details.
Associated Press writers Matthew Lee in Washington and Illia Novikov in Kyiv, Ukraine, contributed to this report.

NIRPC joins down payment assistance initiative
Buying a home could get easier in Northwest Indiana following action by the Northwestern Indiana Regional Planning Commission’s executive board on Thursday.
The agency reached across the state to join with the Fort Wayne Housing Authority to participate in the Hoosier Homes Homebuyer Assistance Program.
The program offers up to 5% down payment assistance for buyers with incomes up to 140% of the area’s median income.
There’s no cost to NIRPC for the program; it’s being administered by the Fort Wayne Housing Authority. The down payment assistance is funded through Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and other agencies.
Valparaiso Councilman Robert Cotton, who was a driving force behind this NIRPC move, said after the meeting he heard from detractors who say they didn’t need help to buy a home back in the day. But times have changed.
“Back in those days, houses were being built for the middle income as well,” he said, but now builders are focused on housing at the upper end of the price range, where profits are higher.
“That’s a way of eliminating the middle class if, in fact, we leave that to the market,” Cotton said.
“People’s thinking tends to revert to poverty and poor folks,” Cotton said, for programs like this. At the NIRPC meeting, Lake County Commissioner Randy Niemeyer asked for clarification, initially believing it was for people up to 140% of the poverty line. Instead, it’s for 60% to 140% of median income.
“Sixty-seven percent of us fall within that range in Valpo,” Cotton said.
The Paradise Homes initiative in Valparaiso is for people earning between 60% and 140% of median income, Cotton said, so the initiative NIRPC joined is more generous.
The Hoosier Homes program works as an intermediary between Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and others to help with the capital stack needed to purchase a home, he explained.
“We haven’t heretofore seen fit to incentivize development in the middle income” range, he said, despite tax breaks awarded to developers building high-end homes.

Leading Scottish Teaching Union Defines Gender Critical Views As “Far Right”
Leading Scottish Teaching Union Defines Gender Critical Views As “Far Right”
Authored by Annemarie Ward via DailySceptic.org,
There are moments in public life when you read something and genuinely wonder if someone is having you on.
The briefing on the supposed rise of far Right activity by the Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS), the leading teachers’ union in Scotland, is one of those moments.
Scotland’s far Right is so tiny it could hold its AGM in the disabled toilet at Wetherspoons and still have room left for a flipchart. Yet here is the country’s largest and most influential union producing a 16-page political field manual that treats this microscopic fringe as if it is marching on Holyrood with flaming torches and matching armbands.
None of this resembles safeguarding. It is not professionalism. It is certainly not education. It is politics in fancy dress, and it insults the intelligence of teachers, parents and pupils alike.
The briefing begins with what looks like a perfectly sensible academic definition of the far Right. That lasts for all of two minutes.
Then the definition begins to stretch and swell until it covers almost anything that does not suit the worldview of whomever wrote the document. Real extremists do exist, and nobody sensible denies that. Every society has a small fringe of people who are vulnerable to rigid identities and destructive beliefs, usually because they are looking for certainty in a chaotic world.
But the EIS manages to take this small and unpleasant fringe and stretch it to breaking point.
Suddenly people who are pro-business, parents who worry about asylum hotels, anyone concerned about collapsing public services, women raising safeguarding issues, and every adult in the country who thinks biological sex corresponds to reality are all apparently drifting towards radicalisation.
And just to round things off, every Reform UK voter is thrown into the same pot.
By this logic, if you have ever eaten a Sunday roast or nodded politely to a small business owner, you may soon end up on a watch list.
The serious point here is that when everything is described as far Right, nothing is. Real extremism – the sort that harms communities – becomes blurred and unrecognisable when the definition has been inflated like a bouncy castle in a gale. And while all this stretching and redefining is going on, certain issues are conspicuously absent. There is no mention of the Iranian bot activity that the security services have warned about, which has been actively stoking constitutional division in Scotland. Apparently that does not merit 16 pages of alarm. No, the real danger, as framed by the EIS, is not organised extremism but the parent who simply asked whether a Gender Unicorn worksheet belonged in the classroom. This is not safeguarding. It is political hygiene dressed up as moral duty.
Meanwhile, teachers across Scotland are dealing with some of the most challenging conditions we have seen in decades. Violence in classrooms has become routine. Literacy is collapsing in large parts of the country. Additional support provision is drowning under impossible caseloads. Staffing is stretched to its limits. Burnout is everywhere. Yet the leadership of the EIS has decided the top priority is to turn a handful of Facebook loudmouths into an existential Reichstag fire.
It mirrors what David Chalmers highlighted in England only last month. University of Leicester students were shown lecture slides comparing Margaret Thatcher to Putin and Hitler. When higher education starts behaving like that, you know something has gone badly wrong. Several English schools have reportedly taught pupils that Reform UK sits on the same political spectrum as the BNP, despite having as much in common as a wet teabag and a nuclear reactor. Clarity and proportion always seem to be the first casualties of a good moral panic.
The real danger in all this is not the far Right. It is the collapse of democratic norms. Real extremists exist, but they are not the looming threat the EIS pretends they are. What should concern anyone serious about civic life is the way our democratic foundations are being eroded from above while everyone is busy scanning playgrounds for imaginary fascists. In recent years, trial by jury has been quietly pared back. Elections have been cancelled for millions of voters.
Ordinary citizens have been arrested for social media posts that would not have raised an eyebrow a decade ago. Executive power has expanded to the point where abnormality now passes for routine. None of this is the work of shadowy extremists lurking on encrypted messaging channels. These decisions are being taken in broad daylight by governments who congratulate themselves on defending democracy while chipping away at its pillars.
Yet the EIS can spot authoritarianism in a parent’s Facebook comment but somehow miss the steady centralisation of state power. It is the political equivalent of opening the broom cupboard to check for ghosts while the roof quietly collapses from above. If we are genuinely serious about resisting authoritarian drift, we need to look at where authority is actually expanding, not where it is easiest to manufacture a scare.
If the EIS wants to teach pupils something useful about authoritarianism, it might start by explaining how such systems work in real life. They come from above, not below. They justify themselves through the language of safety rather than through overt threats. They arrive quietly through admin, layers of bureaucracy, policy and guidance rather than boots marching. Authoritarian drift does not look like online caricatures of flag-waving oddballs. It looks like officials wearing a badge promising one more policy for your own good. Danger seldom arrives banging on the door. It appears quietly, disguised as reassurance.
Scotland has made itself particularly vulnerable to this sort of drift because we have no statutory safeguards on political impartiality in education. In England, teachers operate under clear legal duties and detailed professional guidance. There is oversight. There is accountability. Parents have recourse. Scotland has none of that. Scots rely on vague non-binding guidance interpreted wildly differently from one local authority to the next. Into that vacuum walks the EIS, presenting an ideological blueprint as though it were a professional handbook.
Imagine the reaction if the biggest teaching union in England published a manual branding Reform UK voters as extremists, casting gender critical women as reactionaries and placing small business owners somewhere on the spectrum of political radicalism.
The Department for Education would have called a press conference before breakfast. Yet in Scotland, the EIS has gone further still. In its own words, this briefing “could be a collective CPD offer for members”, as though a partisan political narrative were simply another piece of professional learning. When professional development is treated this casually, the line between education and indoctrination is not blurred, it is being erased.
The combination of moral panic and a complete absence of structural safeguards is not a small administrative quirk. It is precisely how politicisation slides into classrooms unnoticed while the public is preoccupied with other things.
At its heart, this is a story of mission drift. Trade unions exist to defend their members’ material interests. Bread and butter solidarity. Pay. Safety. Conditions. Professional dignity. The EIS seems to have wandered so far from that mission it can no longer see it. It now treats safeguarding questions as misogyny, political disagreement as radicalisation, parental concern as the first step towards fascism, and mainstream views as contamination.
This is not professional support. When an organisation forgets why it exists, it stops helping and starts preaching. There is a simple moral truth at the centre of this. Political neutrality in education does not exist to spare the feelings of politicians. Most of them struggle to protect their own feelings on the best of days. Neutrality exists to protect the public. It protects the right to disagree. It protects children from having their moral world narrowed by ideology masquerading as virtue.
Once a union decides that whole sections of the electorate are too dangerous to debate, it stops being a guardian of education and becomes something much darker. In addiction recovery I teach that no one is beyond redemption and that a person should not be defined by his or her worst day or worst idea. The EIS is running the opposite programme, treating ordinary people as pathologies rather than neighbours.
Teachers deserve better than this. Pupils deserve better. A school system rooted in the common good cannot survive when its leading union treats ordinary people as if they are beyond dialogue. The EIS claims to be fighting extremism, yet extremism always begins with the belief that some voices are unworthy of being heard. That is the seed of every authoritarian impulse.
Anyone who has watched a life unravel knows how that impulse grows. Harm does not begin with dramatic gestures. It begins with denial, the quiet conviction that the problem is always someone else. That is exactly where the EIS has positioned itself. If it truly wants to protect Scotland’s young people, it will need to rediscover humility, remember its purpose and step out of denial. Because authority without humility does not safeguard a community; it wounds it.

Estado australiano planea prohibir exhibición de banderas de Estado Islámico
SYDNEY (AP) — El estado australiano de Nueva Gales del Sur está proponiendo prohibir las exhibiciones públicas de banderas del grupo Estado Islámico o símbolos extremistas después del ataque en Sydney que mató a 15 personas y fue atribuido a ese tipo de ideología.
Bajo las leyes preliminares que se debatirán en el Parlamento estatal, exhibir públicamente la bandera del EI o símbolos de otros grupos extremistas será un delito castigable con hasta dos años de prisión y multas.
El primer ministro del estado, Chris Minns, anunció que se prohibirán los cánticos de “globalizar la intifada” y se otorgarán mayores poderes a la policía para exigir que manifestantes se quiten las coberturas faciales durante protestas.
“El discurso de odio o la incitación al odio no tienen lugar en nuestra sociedad”, indicó Minns.
La palabra árabe intifada generalmente se traduce como “levantamiento”. Si bien manifestantes propalestinos dicen que describe las protestas mundiales contra la guerra en Gaza, líderes judíos dicen que inflama las tensiones y fomenta ataques antisemitas.
“Los recientes y horribles eventos han demostrado que el cántico ‘globalizar la intifada’ es un discurso de odio y fomenta la violencia en nuestra comunidad”, dijo Minns dijo a periodistas. “Estás jugando un juego muy arriesgado si piensas en usar esa frase”.
Los políticos de Nueva Gales del Sur debatirán las reformas el lunes después de que el primer ministro convoque al parlamento.
La policía ha dicho que el ataque del domingo, dirigido a una celebración judía en la playa más famosa de Australia, fue “un ataque terrorista inspirado por el grupo Estado Islámico”. La policía dijo que encontraron dos banderas caseras del EI en el vehículo utilizado por los dos sospechosos.
El primer ministro Anthony Albanese se ha comprometido a introducir medidas para frenar la radicalización y el odio, incluyendo ampliar la definición de delitos de discurso de odio para predicadores y líderes que promuevan la violencia, y endurecer los castigos para tales crímenes. Las propuestas también designarían a algunos grupos como odiosos y permitirían a los jueces considerar el odio como un factor agravante en casos de amenazas y acoso en línea.
Albanese también ha anunciado planes para endurecer las ya estrictas leyes de armas de Australia.
El ataque ha suscitado preguntas sobre si los judíos australianos están suficientemente protegidos del antisemitismo.
Australia tiene 28 millones de habitantes, incluyendo alrededor de 117.000 judíos. Los incidentes antisemitas, incluidos asaltos, vandalismo, amenazas e intimidación, se triplicaron en el país durante el año después de que Hamás atacara a Israel el 7 de octubre de 2023, e Israel lanzara una guerra contra Hamás en Gaza en respuesta, informó en julio Jillian Segal, la Enviada Especial del gobierno para Combatir el Antisemitismo.

Chelsea se recupera y empata 2-2 ante Newcastle en la Liga Premier
Por STEVE DOUGLAS
Chelsea se recuperó después de que concedió dos goles tempranos de Nick Woltemade para empatar el sábado 2-2 con Newcastle en la Premier League el sábado, con tantos de João Pedro gracias a una rara asistencia del portero.
Robert Sánchez lanzó un despeje largo hacia Pedro, quien cabeceó el balón hacia adelante y terminó recogiéndolo él mismo después de que Fabian Schar resbalara. Pedro remató por debajo del portero de Newcastle, Aaron Ramsdale, para asegurarle al Chelsea un punto a los 66 minutos.
Woltemade puso al Newcastle 2-0 arriba al anotar desde corta distancia después de cuatro minutos y luego al desviar un centro de Anthony Gordon al 20.
Reece James inició la remontada de Chelsea al curvar un tiro libre que entró tras golpear el poste al 49.
Chelsea se ubica cuarto y redujo su diferencia con el Arsenal a siete puntos antes de que el líder enfrente más tarde al Everton. Newcastle perdió la oportunidad de escalar a la mitad superior de la clasificación.
Hay ocho partidos en total el sábado, incluyendo el duelo de Manchester City, que está en segundo lugar a dos puntos detrás del Arsenal, recibiendo al West Ham y al Liverpool visitando al Tottenham.

His nomination was approved 53 to 43.
Mildred, 54, is an Allen County Deputy Prosecutor in Fort Wayne who was nominated this summer.
Mildred was previously the chief deputy prosecutor in Noble County and has prosecuted more than 200 cases, including trials involving homicide, robbery, drug trafficking and federal firearms offenses, according to U.S. Sen. Jim Banks’ website.
“I’m grateful for the president’s nomination,” Mildred told the Post-Tribune in July. “If confirmed, I will work to vigorously enforce our nation’s laws, help keep our nation safe and protect our civil rights. We will work with federal agencies and local law enforcement to make the Northern District of Indiana a safer place to work and raise a family.”
He has degrees from Ball State University and the Indiana University Maurer School of Law.
He replaces Acting U.S. Attorney M. Scott Proctor, who led federal prosecutions in Hammond, Fort Wayne and South Bend. His predecessor was Clifford Johnson in the Biden administration.
Thomas Wheeler II was also confirmed as U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana. The men were part of batch of nearly 100 lawyers, judges and other nominees approved.
“Adam Mildred and Thomas Wheeler both bring decades of legal experience and a deep commitment to upholding law and order,” U.S. Sen. Jim Banks, R-Indiana, said in a release. “I congratulate them on their final confirmation and look forward to the work they will do for Hoosiers across Indiana.”

Hombre armado con cuchillo es abatido tras amenazar a transeúntes en Córcega
AJACCIO, Francia (AP) — Un hombre armado con un cuchillo que amenazó a transeúntes y comerciantes fue abatido en Córcega el sábado, informó la policía, mientras las autoridades francesas reforzaban las medidas de seguridad durante la temporada festiva.
La policía informó que recibió una llamada alrededor del mediodía sobre un individuo que amenazaba con un cuchillo a una tienda en la ciudad de Ajaccio.
El hombre de 26 años había abandonado el lugar cuando los agentes llegaron. Posteriormente fue localizado en otro lugar del centro de la ciudad, aún portando un cuchillo. Los agentes le ordenaron que soltara el arma, pero no cumplió, según indicó la policía.
Se utilizó un arma de impulso eléctrico, pero no logró detenerlo. El hombre se dirigió hacia los agentes con el cuchillo, lo que llevó a la policía a abrir fuego. Murió en el lugar a pesar de la intervención de los servicios de emergencia.
Un policía resultó levemente herido en la mano, añadió la fuerza. Se desconoce el motivo del agresor.
El ministro del Interior francés, Laurent Nuñez, afirmó que “la vigilancia está en su nivel más alto” durante la temporada festiva, y añadió que ha ordenado un refuerzo de las patrullas públicas.

High-Winds Derail Freight Train In Wyoming
High-Winds Derail Freight Train In Wyoming
Strong winds swept across the Western U.S. last week, knocking out power to hundreds of thousands of customers across the Pacific Northwest, and even toppling a double-stacked freight train in Wyoming.
Wyoming-based media outlet Cowboy State Daily reported that a BNSF Railway train carrying dozens of double-stacked freight cars derailed early Friday morning northwest of Cheyenne due to extreme winds exceeding 144 mph.

— brendon (@brendonme) December 19, 2025
Cowboy State Daily meteorologist Don Day said the peak wind gusts in the area of the derailment incident were as much as 78 mph.
“That’s a notoriously windy area,” Day said. “My grandfather used to work for the Union Pacific Railroad, and I was always spun yarns about what it was like getting through that route, whether it was blizzards or windstorms. It’s really nasty.”
Retired Union Pacific Railroad employee and former Wyoming legislator Stan Blake told the local outlet that wind speeds recorded between Cheyenne and Laramie could “definitely” derail a train.
“From what I saw, they were intermodal cars, which are overseas shipping containers they double stack,” Blake said. “It’s like a giant billboard going down the rails.”
Last week, widespread warnings for winter weather or high winds were in place for millions across the West and Midwest.
