Representative Adam Kinzinger, an Illinois Republican, called on Christian leaders who have pushed President Donald Trump s baseless claims of widespread voter fraud to admit their mistakes, suggesting this was necessary to lead their followers to the truth.
Hundreds of Trump s supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday as Congress convened to certify the election victory of President-elect Joe Biden. At a rally earlier in the day, Trump had urged the rioters to march to the Capitol and fight as he continued to push unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud. These baseless allegations have been thoroughly litigated, with more than 50 lawsuits brought by Trump and his supporters failing in state and federal courts.

US Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris will be on Vogue s February cover. However even before the edition is released, it ran into a controversy. The magazine which released two photos of Harris from its February edition has sparked instant outrage for whitewashing or lightening the skin colour of America s future Vice-President.
Vogue, in a tweet on Sunday, 10 January, made public a photo of 56-year-old Harris wearing her trademark Converse sneakers, standing in front of a pink and green drape. The other, a more formal one, shows her in a powder blue suit, with her arms crossed in front of a gold background.
The criticism of the cover runs the gamut from way the photograph is lit, which some say washes out her features, to the overall styling that others say fall.
