Statista's survey of more than 1,000 U.S. adults for its Brand Profiler special Personalities and Celebrities reveals that only a small portion of Americans thoroughly follow international politics and that they more most likely to remember the world leaders that they mostly dislike.
The prime minister of New Zealand Jacinda Ardern announced
her resignation today for some personal reasons. The popular leader said that she
no more has the energy required to fulfil her duties as the prime minister. According
to a report by CNN, many citizens express shock and disbelief concerning
Ardern's decision.
The data acquired by the Council on Foreign Relations shows
that New Zealand is one such country which has had the most elected female
heads of state and/or government after 1946. Before Jacinda Ardern, Jenny
Shipley of the National Party led the country between 1997 and 1999, followed
by Helen Clark of the Labour between 1999 and 2008.
It’s been reported that some Twitter employees have set
their account settings to private due to fear of being targeted by supporters
of Donald Trump.
Prior to the January 6th riot at the Capitol,
Trump encouraged his supporters to “fight much harder” and “show strength” and
while the attack was going on, he even tweeted “we love you” to his supporters.
Trump’s official Twitter account was permanently suspended on 8th of
January “due to the risk of further incitement of violence,” as explained by
Twitter.
The New York Stock Exchange delisted three of China’s telecom
firms, after Washington claimed that the firms had ties with the Chinese
military. China’s Commerce Ministry has responded to the situation, saying that
it will take necessary measures to protect the interests of its companies.
The targeted Chinese firms include China Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom. Former US President Donald Trump had ordered to bar U.S. investment in 31 firms back in November, all of which according to Washington, are either owned or controlled by the Chinese military.
After the recent U.S. elections, Facebook slightly transformed its platform’s News Feed to highlight important information regarding post-elections. It changed the News Feed algorithm to tweak how much weight the News Feed gives to “news ecosystem quality” scores, which is an internet metric designed to evaluate the reliability and quality of a news source.
As a result, users could see more authentic news from credible publishers such as The New York Times, CNN, and NPR and less of the dubious sources such as pages that spread false or misleading information.
Twitter revealed that it is ready to transfer the official @POTUS account to the elected President of the United States Joe Biden after he takes the presidential oath on the Inauguration Day.
A Twitter spokesperson said that the company is ‘'actively preparing to support the transition of White House institutional Twitter accounts on January 20th, 2021.” He further revealed that the process is being carried out in close consultation with the National Archives and Records Administration.
Other than the @POTUS account, other presidential accounts like @whitehouse, @VP, and @FLOTUS will also be transferred and the current content on these accounts will be archived before moving them over. Furthermore, the accounts will be reset to zero tweets.
Joe Biden is the new president of the United States of America
and this election is nothing short of monumental. Joe Biden has created history
as he will be the oldest president when he is sworn in to the White House. You may
have heard his name a lot before he was running for president, that is because
he has run for president 3 times before being elected as one.
Joe Biden is the new US President, pretty much everyone knows
by now. He will be inaugurated on January 20, 2021. By the time he is
inaugurated, there will have been a lot of historic firsts recorded. First of
all, Kamala Harris will be elected as the first female vice president and
second in-command in the US. Joe Biden will also turn 78 years old on November
20, 2020, which means that he will be the oldest person to be elected as the US
President.
With Donald Trump losing the 2020 US Presidential Elections and Joe Biden taking his place in office, Twitter will be taking away Trump's privileges that he had been enjoying on the platform. The company confirmed that Trump’s Twitter account will be subject to all the rules like a regular Twitter user’s account, including bans over spreading violent content and false information about voting or the coronavirus.
Twitter has a separate set of rules for accounts owned by world leaders, office candidates and public officials. Problematic tweets posted by leaders and public officials become subject to warning labels or limited engagement. When world leaders and candidates for office no longer hold their positions, their accounts become subject to the regular policies.
Donald Trump has finally been removed from office, as Joe Biden replaces him as the newly elected President of the United States.
Trump proved himself as an extreme candidate, with his false claims against science, his support for dictatorship, and other problematic and vulgar behavior that he continued to show during his presidency. He shocked the world in 2016 when he got elected as President for the first time.
America has suffered a lot of damage since then, and while Trump no longer runs the office, the damage caused by his actions will take a long time to recover.
We know the United States for its boosting economy and financial power. But it is also a fact that its debt has highly increased in the last few years. The U.S. public debt, that has been taken from other governments, individual entities as well as business empires, amounts to quite a lot. However, is there a single administration that should be held responsible for this increasing debt? Not at all, this debt has been increasing each year.
From the facts that we have, from 2009 until 2020 have contributed to the increase in U.S. debts. This means that both the recent Donald Trump administration, as well as the Obama administration in its two terms, has caused an increase in public debt. Debt has so far reached 21 trillion dollars, this latest figure has been until of 30 September of this year.
The US presidential elections are underway as you may know. The
battle is fierce and fast and both key candidates, Joe Biden and Donald Trump
are going up against each other. On paper, Joe Biden is winning, but we cannot
say for sure as of yet because the battle is not won on paper.
