By LISA MASCARO and FARNOUSH AMIRI WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump’s pick for intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard faced fresh scrutiny Monday on Capitol Hill about her proximity to Russian-ally Syria amid the sudden collapse of that country’s hardline Assad rule. Gabbard ignored shouted questions about her 2017 visit to war-torn Syria as she ducked into one of several private meetings with senators who are being asked to confirm Trump’s unusual nominees .

In some states, legislatures are working to undermine the results National Politics | Trump taps his attorney Alina Habba to serve as counselor to the president But the Democrat-turned-Republican Army National Reserve lieutenant colonel delivered a statement in which she reiterated her support for Trump’s America First approach to national security and a more limited U.S. military footprint overseas. “I want to address the issue that’s in the headlines right now: I stand in full support and wholeheartedly agree with the statements that President Trump has made over these last few days with regards to the developments in Syria,” Gabbard said exiting a Senate meeting. The incoming president’s Cabinet and top administrative choices are dividing his Republican allies and drawing concern , if not full opposition, from Democrats and others. Not just Gabbard, but other Trump nominees including Pentagon pick Pete Hegseth, were back at the Capitol ahead of what is expected to be volatile confirmation hearings next year. The incoming president is working to put his team in place for an ambitious agenda of mass immigrant deportations, firing federal workers and rollbacks of U.S. support for Ukraine and NATO allies. “We’re going to sit down and visit, that’s what this is all about,” said Sen. Mike Rounds, R-S.D., as he welcomed Gabbard into his office. Meanwhile, Defense Secretary pick Hegseth appeared to be picking up support from once-skeptical senators, the former Army National Guard major denying sexual misconduct allegations and pledging not to drink alcohol if he is confirmed. The president-elect’s choice to lead the FBI, Kash Patel , who has written extensively about locking up Trump’s foes and proposed dismantling the Federal Bureau of Investigation, launched his first visits with senators Monday. “I expect our Republican Senate is going to confirm all of President Trump’s nominees,” said Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., on social media. Despite widespread concern about the nominees’ qualifications and demeanors for the jobs that are among the highest positions in the U.S. government, Trump’s team is portraying the criticism against them as nothing more than political smears and innuendo. Showing that concern, nearly 100 former senior U.S. diplomats and intelligence and national security officials have urged Senate leaders to schedule closed-door hearings to allow for a full review of the government’s files on Gabbard. Trump’s allies have described the criticisms of Hegseth in particular as similar to those lodged against Brett Kavanaugh, the former president’s Supreme Court nominee who denied a sexual assault allegation and went on to be confirmed during Trump’s first term in office. Said Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., about Hegseth: “Anonymous accusations are trying to destroy reputations again. We saw this with Kavanaugh. I won’t stand for it.” One widely watched Republican, Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa, herself a former Army National Guard lieutenant colonel and sexual assault survivor who had been criticized by Trump allies for her cool reception to Hegseth, appeared more open to him after their follow-up meeting Monday. “I appreciate Pete Hegseth’s responsiveness and respect for the process,” Ernst said in a statement. Ernst said that following “encouraging conversations,” he had committed to selecting a senior official who will “prioritize and strengthen my work to prevent sexual assault within the ranks. As I support Pete through this process, I look forward to a fair hearing based on truth, not anonymous sources.” Ernst also had praise for Patel — “He shares my passion for shaking up federal agencies” — and for Gabbard. Once a rising Democratic star, Gabbard, who represented Hawaii in Congress, arrived a decade ago in Washington, her surfboard in tow, a new generation of potential leaders. She ran unsuccessfully for president in 2020. But Gabbard abruptly left the party and briefly became an independent before joining with Trump’s 2024 campaign as one of his enthusiasts, in large part over his disdain for U.S. involvement overseas and opposition to helping Ukraine battle Russia. Her visit to Syria to meet with then-President Bashar Assad around the time of Trump’s first inauguration during the country’s bloody civil war stunned her former colleagues and the Washington national security establishment. The U.S. had severed diplomatic relations with Syria. Her visit was seen by some as legitimizing a brutal leader who was accused of war crimes. Gabbard has defended the trip, saying it’s important to open dialogue, but critics hear in her commentary echoes of Russia-fueled talking points. Assad fled to Moscow over the weekend after Islamist rebels overtook Syria in a surprise attack, ending his family’s five decades of rule. She said her own views have been shaped by “my multiple deployments and seeing firsthand the cost of war and the threat of Islamist terrorism.” Gabbard said, “It’s one of the many reasons why I appreciate President Trump’s leadership and his election, where he is fully committed, as he has said over and over, to bring about an end to wars.” Last week, the nearly 100 former officials, who served in both Democratic and Republican administrations, said in the letter to Senate leaders they were “alarmed” by the choice of Gabbard to oversee all 18 U.S. intelligence agencies. They said her past actions “call into question her ability to deliver unbiased intelligence briefings to the President, Congress, and to the entire national security apparatus.” The Office of the Director of National Intelligence was created after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to coordinate the nation’s intelligence agencies and act as the president’s main intelligence adviser.

REVEREND Richard Coles has been left gagging as he struggled to swallow a fish eye alongside Tulisa during an I’m A Celeb trial. The Reverend is no stranger to an eating trial, after he and Maura Higgins took on a gruesome food challenge towards the start of his time on the show. And he and Irish beauty Maura did their camp mates proud during their Teddy Bear’s picnic challenge – but in an upcoming teaser , it seems the Reverend was disgusted while attempting to swallow the fish eye. Tulisa and Richard embark on a Jungle TV Dinners challenge, and tuck into several different Bushtucker courses, under the watchful eye of show hosts Ant and Dec. Courses include cleverly named ‘Love Eye-land’ and ‘Ant & Dec’s Limitless Limbs.’ Rev Richard and Tulisa desperately try to win stars for camp but it doesn’t appear to be the easiest of trials. “Richard, you must like a bit of Love Island,” says Ant, as they introduce the Love Eye-land course. Richard says he does, as Ant admitted they really liked it when Maura – who is of course also on I’m A Celeb – was on the show. “I’m afraid, though, it’s not that kind of Love Island,” Ant added, continuing: “It’s Love eye-land,” while emphasising ‘eye.’ The Reverend was presented with a very playful looking dish of fish eyes positioned as if sat around a fire pit, like Love Island’s iconic fire pit. Reverend Richard was laughing, as Ant said: “Got a text,” and told him to “chew it properly” as the Reverend struggled to hold it down and gagged as he chewed. Meanwhile, Dec, in a Love Island manner, read out various hashtags like “fishy business ,” and “get your lips around this.” Seated on a cosy brown sofa, Ant and Dec couldn’t help but laugh as the Reverend struggled and Maura watched on. It comes as many I’m A Celeb fans were left convinced that an iconic show challenge is on the brink of return after spotting a clue. Many think that we haven't seen the last of the junkyard - a secret camp where new arrivals The Reverand Richard and Maura first went to when they arrived. i'm A Celebrity is back for its 24th series, with a batch of famous faces living in the Aussie jungle. The Sun's Jake Penkethman takes a look at the stars on the show this year.. Coleen Rooney - Arguably the most famous name in the camp, the leading WAG, known for her marriage to Wayne Rooney , has made a grand return to TV as she looks to put the Wagatha Christie scandal behind her. The Sun revealed the mum-of-four had bagged an eye-watering deal worth over £1.5million to be on the show this year making her the highest-paid contestant ever. Tulisa - The popstar and former X Factor judge has made her triumphant TV comeback by signing up to this year's I'm A Celeb after shunning TV shows for many years. Known for being a member of the trio, N-Dubz, Tulisa became a household name back in 2011 when she signed on to replace Cheryl on ITV show The X Factor in a multi-million pound deal. Alan Halsall - The actor, known for playing the long-running role of Tyrone Dobbs on ITV soap opera Coronation Street, was originally signed up to head Down Under last year but an operation threw his scheduled appearance off-course. Now he has become the latest Corrie star to win over both the viewers and his fellow celebrities. Melvin Odoom - The Radio DJ has become a regular face on TV screens after rising to fame with presenting roles on Kiss FM, BBC Radio 1 and 4Music. Melvin has already been for a spin on the Strictly dancefloor and co-hosted The Xtra Factor with Rochelle Humes in 2015 but now he is facing up to his biggest challenge yet - the Aussie jungle . GK Barry - The UK's biggest social media personality, GK, whose real name is Grace Keeling, has transformed her TikTok stardom into a lucrative career. Aside from her popular social media channels, she hosts the weekly podcast, Saving Grace, and regularly appears on ITV talk show, Loose Women. She has even gone on to endorse popular brands such as PrettyLittleThing, KFC and Ann Summers. Dean McCullough - A rising star amongst this year's bunch of celebs , Dean first achieved notability through his radio appearances on Gaydio and BBC Radio 1. He was chosen to join the BBC station permanently in 2021 and has featured prominently ever since. He has enjoyed a crossover to ITV over the past year thanks to his guest slots on Big Brother spin-off show, Late & Live. Oti Mabuse - The pro dancer has signed up to her latest TV show after making her way through the biggest programmes on the box. She originally found fame on Strictly Come Dancing but has since branched out into the world of TV judging with appearances on former BBC show The Greatest Dancer as well as her current role on ITV's Dancing On Ice . Danny Jones - The McFly star was drafted into the programme last minute as a replacement for Tommy Fury. Danny is the second member of McFly to enter the jungle , after Dougie Poynter won the show in 2011. He is also considered a rising star on ITV as he's now one of the mentors on their Saturday night talent show, The Voice , along with bandmate Tom Fletcher. Jane Moore - The Loose Women star and The Sun columnist is braving the creepy crawlies this year. The star is ready for a new challenge - having recently split from her husband . It will be Jane's first foray into reality TV with the telly favourite having always said no to reality shows in the past. Barry McGuigan - Former pro boxer Barry is the latest fighting champ to head Down Under following in the footsteps of Tony Bellew and Amir Khan. It comes after a tough few years for Irish star Barry, who lost his daughter Danika to bowel cancer . He told The Late Late Show in 2021: "She was such an intrinsic part of the family that every day we ache." Maura Higgins - The Irish TV beauty first found fame on Love Island where she found a brief connection with dancer Curtis Pritchard . Since then, she has competed on Dancing On Ice as well as hosting the Irish version of the beauty contest, Glow Up. Since last year, she has been working on building up her career in the US by being the social media correspondent and host of Aftersun to accompany Love Island USA. She even guest hosted an episode of the spin-off, Love Island Games, in place of Maya Jama last year. Rev. Richard Coles - Former BBC radio host the Rev Richard Coles is a late arrival on I’m A Celebrity , and he's ready to spill the beans on his former employer. The former Communards and Strictly star , said the BBC did not know its a**e from its elbow last year. An insider said: "Rev Coles will have a variety of tales to tell from his wild days as a pop star in the Eighties, through to performing on Strictly and his later life as a man of the cloth." The Reverand and the Love Island star were the first to face the challenge last week. The new campers had to convince the original contestants to give up their beds to win three food portions. Then GK and Coleen brought dishes to the junkyard to clean, and they went about pretending they had the rough end of the stick, making the campers feel sorry for them. In another challenge, they had to dump offal on poor Melvin. The duo summoned the best of their acting abilities to convince him that they, too, were being soaked—when, in fact, they gorged on fruit at the junk food buffet. And then they recruited The Sun's very own Jungle Jane Moore compete in a challenge together for treats. Then they got everyone feeling sorry for them as they returned to camp, but there was a twist when, unbeknownst to the rest of the camp, their makeshift ' prison ' was full of luxuries. As the stars entered the jungle, they feared the worst - but were assured by Ant And Dec that it wouldn't be as bad as they thought. They had a luxurious double bed, a hidden sofa, a gas cooker, hidden fridge door stocked with fruit smoothies and a platter and even a bathtub. Many fans have been intrigued to see a 'playfully wicked' streak develop in The Reverend, as he convinced the camp to feel sorry for him. Maura said: "I'm a good liar," to which holy man Richard said, "I will learn fast." Viewers are now convinced that, with the challenge over, we haven't seen the last of the tomfoolery. One fan took to a forum to ask, "Just wondering, with a team split coming up and the cash card scenario, will the Junkyard come into play?" "Either, winning team gets luxury in the Junkyard, or, for a twist, the worst team gets sent there, but this time, it really is the "poor" camp with all luxuries removed and only rice and beans on the menu..." In reply to this another fan said: "With teams of four it would be very cramped in there don’t you think? Only two would be able to sleep in the comfy bed or sit on the couch. I know it’s like that in the main camp but you are talking about a team ‘winning’ the luxury camp so why would two of four get the comfort?" The original person who posted this clarified: "I suggested two scenarios. Either it remains luxury for a winning team or it could revert to being a poor camp for losing camp mates, with luxuries removed, which would create more space." Another fan replied, "That sounds great. I hope it happens. It would show the campmates how they really are as people, not trying to hide themselves as they do at present. It's the best idea I have heard in ages."A banana duct-taped to a wall, created by Italian artist Maurizio Cattelan, recently sold for $6.2 million to cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun.

'Mahayuti To Form Govt With CM From BJP, 2 Deputy CMs From Allies': Ajit Pawar Clears Air Amid DeadlockIn a lost season, there are plenty of "what ifs" to go around. The Chicago Bears have found interesting and outright baffling ways to lose a handful of football games this year. How different would the season be if all those close games went the other way? Kford Ratings released a graphic showing the updated standings if every NFL team's one-score games were flipped. Bears fans, look away if you are easily disturbed by graphic images... I want to jump off a bridge pic.twitter.com/pWM0h8j4Be The Chicago Bears would currently hold the number two seed in the NFC and be well-positioned for the postseason. The margin for error in the NFL is razor-thin. Teams that are well-coached and well-prepared rise to the occasion during close games, while ones that are poorly coached and lack focus frequently lose out. On Sunday, the defending Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs won their record 15th one-score game in a row with their win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Meanwhile, the Chicago Bears were an NFL worst 5-17 in one-score games during Matt Eberflus ' tenure. The good news for the Bears, at least, is that they didn't add to that terrible stat during their recent game against the San Francisco 49ers.
