Thousands Rally in Support of South Korean President

House Speaker Mike Johnson emphasizes the urgency for Republicans to advance their agenda before Donald Trump's inauguration, highlighting plans for a comprehensive policy package covering issues like border security and tax cuts. Despite controlling both chambers, Johnson acknowledges the slim majorities will complicate passing significant legislation, especially as some Democrats express opposition to proposed tax cuts. Concurrently, incoming border czar Tom Homan aims to reverse previous border policies and increase deportations, noting historically low deportation numbers under the past administration. In international news, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is rallying allies to enhance air defenses amid ongoing conflict, while Turkish President Erdogan has offered assistance to resolve the turmoil in Sudan. Additionally, political unrest is growing in South Korea due to President Yoon Suk Yeol's controversial actions, and former French President Nicolas Sarkozy faces new legal challenges.
