data released by the Treasury Department, marking a new milestone as government spending and borrowing continues to surge.The new record is for the government's total debt outstanding, which includes $23.487 trillion in debt held by the public and another $6.525 trillion in intra-government debt such as federal trust funds and other accounts.Spending by Congress was already increasing at a steady clip for years before the coronavirus sparked a borrowing surge of $5 trillion in pandemic relief that exacerbated the rate."$30 trillion in debt is an obscene number, but what's even more depressing is the fact that most politicians in both parties don't really care," Sen.

Ben Sasse, R-Neb., said in a statement on the milestone. "Someone is going to have to pay that money when these politicians are long gone, and -- spoiler alert -- it won’t be paid by them but instead by our kids.""Ignoring the debt won't solve the crisis, it will only make things worse," Sasse added. "We need to cut the budget-busting spending sprees and do real entitlement reform."AdvertisementThis story is developing and will be updated..

Capitol Riot 'Lectern Guy' sentenced to 75 days in prison, $5K fine

WASHINGTON - A federal judge has sentenced a Tampa Bay area man known as "lectern guy" to 75 days in prison for his role in the deadly riot at the U.S. Capitol.Adam Johnson, 37, of Parrish was also ordered to pay a $5,000 fine as part of his sentence.Johnson walked away with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's lectern and gleefully posed for a photo with it during the January 6, 2021 riot.That photo quickly went viral.The man seen toting Nancy Pelosi’s lectern during the riot was mistakenly identified by some social media users as "Via Getty," based on a misinterpretation of the photo caption -- but a former parishioner from his church told FOX 13 that she immediately knew who it was. "I instantly recognized him, so it's kind of like, 'What are the odds?'" Alex Noon said.

The Libertines share update on Pete Doherty’s health, confirm London shows will go ahead

The Libertines have updated fans on the status of Pete Doherty‘s health, and have confirmed that tonight’s (February 25) show at London’s O2 Forum Kentish Town will go ahead.The band were forced to pull out of their Bristol date yesterday, after the co-frontman “developed a high fever and shortness of breath”.A doctor was called to his aide, and although he tested negative for COVID-19, he was diagnosed with an unspecified “respiratory infection which [required] immediate treatment”. He was advised not to take part in last night’s show “under any circumstances”, leading to its cancellation.Though The Libertines are yet to advise Bristol fans on when (or if) their gig will be rescheduled, they posted on Instagram earlier today that Doherty’s treatment has thus far been successful, and that he “has been allowed to travel to London today and tonight’s show will therefore go ahead”.A post shared by The Libertines (@thelibertines)“Our sincere apologies go to everyone who had tickets for Bristol, especially after all the disruption already caused by the pandemic,” they wrote. “We want to thank our fans for being so understanding and all the good wishes Peter has received.”The Libertines are currently wrapping up their rescheduled ‘Giddy Up A Ding-Dong Tour’, with London slated as the last stop.

Who is Ketanji Brown Jackson? Biden taps 1st Black woman to Supreme Court, AP sources say

Photo of Ketanji Brown Jackson (Credit: Getty Images) WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden on Friday will nominate federal appeals court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, according to the Associated Press, citing a person familiar with the matter. The nomination makes her the first Black woman selected to serve on a court that once declared her race unworthy of citizenship and endorsed segregation.In Jackson, Biden delivers on a campaign promise to make the historic appointment and to further diversify a court that was made up entirely of white men for almost two centuries. He has chosen an attorney who would be the high court's first former public defender, though she also possesses the elite legal background of other justices.Jackson would be the current court’s second Black justice — Justice Clarence Thomas, a conservative, is the other — and just the third in history.

Some trucker convoy organizers have history of white nationalism, racism

the trucker convoy started appearing on Ottawa streets, some Twitter users shared a particular photo: a pickup truck with a confederate flag flying from the bed.Now, as the convoy descends on Ottawa with the stated aim of opposing all COVID-19 mandates, anti-hate experts allege those with white nationalist and Islamophobic views don’t just represent the fringes of the movement but are among the organizers of the convoy.“We’re saying that this is a far-right convoy because — from day one — the organizers themselves are part of the far-right movement,” said Evan Balgord, executive director of the Canadian Anti-Hate Network.“They have previously been involved in far-right movements and have made Islamophobic comments in the past.” Trucker convoy protest arrives in Ottawa for multi-day demonstration It can be difficult to determine who is a key organizer of the convoy, but there are some names that emerge time and time again — whether as authors of the $7.4million GoFundMe campaign, as points of contact on the website that boasts a petition with 240,000 signatures, or on social media posts providing widely-shared directions to anyone hoping to join.Global News contacted all the organizers mentioned in this story, but none responded by the time of publication. Jason LaFace, an Ontario organizer, did pick up the call, but upon the reporter identifying themselves, immediately laughed, said “no thank you,” and hung up the phone.The convoy initially kicked off with a focus on opposing vaccine mandates — especially the one aimed at truckers.

They have confirmed that there will be a large number of trucks and participants, and that the main planned demonstrations will take place on Saturday and Sunday,” Sloly told reporters.“With demonstrations of this scale, there are significant risks to be mitigated, but that we cannot fully eliminate.”Sources tell Global News that federal national security officials have held multiple briefings with local law enforcement officials ahead of Saturday’s planned demonstrations, which are expected to include well-known white supremacist and far-right personalities.While Sloly said Ottawa police have been in contact with the demonstrations’ main organizers, he warned police expect a number of “parallel demonstrators” that they have not been able to “engage fully with.”“There are also social media actors locally, nationally and internationally.
