Frank McCormick, a former teacher and constitutional conservative, posted on X early Thursday asking if people enjoy Christmas aesthetics like lights, music, and decorations. Over 50 Jewish respondents largely expressed delight in the holiday's vibe and mood-boosting elements amid winter, noting cultural participation such as eating Chinese food on Christmas or decorating neighbors' trees. Many highlighted the irony that iconic songs like 'White Christmas' and 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer' were written by Jewish composers including Irving Berlin and Johnny Marks. While a minority opts out, the thread with over 4,000 views reflects American pluralism and shared seasonal goodwill transcending faith.

Key Takeaway

A simple question on X about enjoying the Christmas season sparked dozens of positive replies from Jewish users, who praised its twinkling lights, festive music, and communal joy without embracing its religious core.

The 2012 YouTube clip, uploaded by Big Time Rush's Carlos PenaVega, featured Bieber, Gomez, and stars like Ashley Tisdale dancing playfully, helping Carly Rae Jepsen's hit top the Billboard Hot 100 for nine weeks with over 86 million views. Exactly one year ago in 2025, Gomez joined Gracie Abrams and Benny Blanco for 'Call Me When You Break Up,' a cozy indie-pop track from their album *I Said I Love You First* that hit No. 46 on the Hot 100 and went gold in the U.S. Fans marked the timing with viral reposts, throwback dances, Stationhead parties, and merch like pink hoodies nodding to the songs' heartache, though some miss 2012's unfiltered pop fun.

Key Takeaway

Fourteen years after Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez goofed off in that iconic 'Call Me Maybe' lip-sync video, Gomez dropped a cheeky sequel song with friends—right on the anniversary.

Ghene, an Arsenal fan, tweeted during the 2025-26 title race that Kepa Arrizabalaga winning the Premier League would leave De Gea with little to show, despite Kepa's Champions League medals but no domestic title yet. Manchester United supporters swarmed the replies, pointing out De Gea's 2013 Premier League win under Sir Alex Ferguson, plus FA Cup, Europa League, and Golden Gloves. Arsenal lead the table with 56 points from 25 games, nine clear of City, as Kepa serves as backup to David Raya on a £5m deal.

Key Takeaway

An Arsenal supporter cheekily posted that Kepa just needs one Premier League win to outshine David de Gea. United fans quickly fired back with trophy photos from 2013.

On Saturday at Amalemba Grounds in Kakamega, thousands gathered for a Linda Mwananchi rally led by Sifuna, Babu Owino, James Orengo, and others, part of an ODM faction's tour to protect citizens and reclaim the party after Raila Odinga's death on October 15, 2025. Police lobbed teargas due to lack of notice, but Sifuna rallied supporters with defiant Swahili chants, and the event continued without major injuries at the site.

Amid exploding teargas canisters, Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna urged the roaring crowd to stay put and extinguish the smoke 'like marijuana.' The rally pushed forward, a bold stand against police pushback.

On Saturday, Israeli settlers set fire to a Palestinian agricultural structure and fenced enclosure in the West Bank village of Abu Falah, northeast of Ramallah, with no injuries reported there. In nearby al-Mughayyir, settlers raided the Abu Hamam family compound, shooting two young men who needed hospital care; a woman there recounted being punched and kicked in front of her daughter as homes were looted. These attacks occurred amid an Israeli military operation, as social media spread unverified claims of violence against Christians in these predominantly Muslim villages. The events highlight a sharp rise in West Bank settler violence, with UN data showing such attacks more than doubled since October 2023.

Key Takeaway

Flames lit up a farm building in Abu Falah as settlers fled in vehicles, while in al-Mughayyir, two young men lay wounded from gunfire at a family compound.

On February 15, Suna East MP Junet Mohamed, a fellow ODM member, criticized Orengo for delivering no development in Siaya since his 2022 election, echoing frustrations from residents over missing basic services.

Supporters point to rising county revenue, hospital upgrades, and planned roads, while the debate highlights tensions in ODM over activism versus infrastructure ahead of 2027 elections.

Key Takeaway

Siaya MP Junet Mohamed called out Governor James Orengo for focusing on protests instead of building roads and water systems locals desperately need.
