King of Malaysia Abdicates Suddenly After Two Years on Throne

Malaysian King Sultan Muhammad V abruptly abdicated on Sunday after wearing the crown for only two years. The former 15th king of Malaysia did not explain why he departed early, but there is speculation it had something to do with his personal life.

“His Majesty tells the people of Malaysia to continue to be united to maintain unity, tolerance, and work together,” said the statement announcing the abdication.

The Associated Press noted on Sunday that the king just returned from a two-month medical leave in which he evidently journeyed to Moscow and married a “25-year-old former Russian beauty queen.” The wedding has not been confirmed by either the royal palace or Malaysia’s elected government, but foreign tabloids and websites have published photos of the ceremony.

France: MSM Cries ‘Sabotage’ as Consultation Shows Voters Reject Globalism

A national consultation in France, launched in response to protesters’ calls for more direct democracy, was denounced as having been “sabotaged” after citizens backed conservative policies.

Mainstream media networks over the weekend claimed the consultation had been “hijacked” by “militant conservative networks” after the initial results revealed a distinct lack of enthusiasm in France for progressive, globalist politics.

Journalist Vincent Glad, from the liberal-left newspaper Libération, highlighted that a proposal to repeal same-sex marriage had garnered the most approval, blasting the consultation as “a joke”.

“The ‘success’ of conservative motions is problematic,” complained state-owned France 24, noting that the other popular proposals included calls to scrap wind power subsidies and restore family allowances to middle-income couples with multiple children.

“For some, [the results] illustrate the dangers of Swiss-style direct democracy and the possible launch of a Citizen Initiated Referendum (RIC) demanded by many Yellow Vests,” it added, referring to a proposed initiative supported by 80 percent of the French public.

In a section asking whether the consultation results should be seen as “significant”, the broadcaster dismissed the more than 31,000-strong number of participants as “small” before insisting it was important to “relativise the ‘victory’ of the proposal to repeal [same-sex] marriage” because it was backed by “a minority” (19 percent) of citizens who took part.

The online consultation was launched by the Economic, Social and Environmental Council (CESE) of France in December, following weeks of protest by the Gilets Jaunes (Yellow Vests) movement against the rising cost of living and perceptions of an out-of-touch political elite.

Coons: ‘A Fourth Century Concrete Wall that You Can’t See Through Will Be a Less Effective Border Barrier’

In a Monday appearance on “Fox & Friends,” Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) commented on the partial government shutdown over funding for the border security wall.

Coons admitted to supporting better border security, but questioned the effectiveness of a “fourth century concrete wall” over a steel-slat fence at the barrier.

“[T]hat is a minor but important difference in technology. A fourth century concrete wall that you can’t see through will be a less effective border barrier,” Coons stated.

Networks Consider Snubbing President's Immigration Address… Developing…

To air or not to air: Networks face pressure over broadcasting Trump's immigration address

The four major networks — NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox — have not had a consistent policy when it comes to airing presidential addresses on immigration.

President Donald Trump’s planned prime-time address on immigration Tuesday night has put the broadcast networks in a difficult — and familiar — position as they debate whether to carry the address live.

The White House has asked the broadcast networks to set aside at least eight minutes at 9 p.m. ET on Tuesday for an Oval Office address in which Trump may declare a state of national emergency at the U.S.-Mexico border.

The four major networks — NBC, ABC, CBS and Fox — have not had a consistent policy when it comes to airing presidential addresses on immigration.

The networks are currently debating whether to air the Trump address, and if they do, they would probably grant Democrats an opportunity to respond, according to two sources familiar with the ongoing deliberations who asked not to be identified because they were not authorized to speak publicly.
