The Dallas Cowboys ruled out right guard Zack Martin and cornerback Trevon Diggs with injuries on Saturday, one day prior to a road game against the Washington Commanders. Martin has been dealing with ankle and shoulder injuries and didn't practice at all this week before initially being listed as doubtful to play on Friday. He also physically struggled during Monday night's loss to the Houston Texans. Martin, who turned 34 on Wednesday, has started all 162 games played in 11 seasons with the Cowboys. He's a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and a seven-time first-team All-Pro. Diggs has been dealing with groin and knee injuries. He was listed as questionable on Friday before being downgraded Saturday. Diggs, 26, has 37 tackles and two interceptions in 10 games this season. The two-time Pro Bowl pick led the NFL with 11 picks in 2021 and has 20 in 57 games. The Cowboys elected not to activate receiver Brandin Cooks (knee) for the game. He returned to practice earlier this week and he was listed as questionable on Friday. Dallas activated offensive tackle Chuma Edoga (toe) and defensive end Marshawn Kneeland (knee) off injured reserve Saturday, placed safety Markquese Bell (shoulder) on IR and released defensive end KJ Henry. Tight end Jake Ferguson (concussion) was previously ruled out. Tight end Princeton Fant was elevated from the practice squad to replace him. Cornerback Kemon Hall also was elevated from the practice squad. --Field Level MediaWall Street gets back to climbing, Nasdaq tops 20,000Thousands of protesters marched through Barcelona on Saturday demanding lower rents in Spain's second city. Barcelona, which has already taken action to stop the spread of holiday rental apartments, is the latest Spanish city to see protests for cheaper housing. Backed by left-wing parties and unions, the demonstrators gathered in central Barcelona behind a giant banner declaring "Lower the rents". "Today a new political cycle starts concerning housing," Carme Arcarazo, spokesperson for the Catalan Tenants Union, the main organiser, told reporters. "Investors must not be allowed to come to our cities and play with the apartments like a game of Monopoly," she added. The union would target "profiteers" who are taking "half of our salaries", Arcarazo said. The demonstrators demanded a 50 percent cut in rents, leases with an unlimited term and a ban on "speculative" sales of buildings. They threatened to start a rent strike. An estimated 22,000 people took part in a similar demonstration in Madrid on October 13. Campaigns have been launched in other cities. According to the Idealista specialised website, rental prices per square metre have risen 82 percent across Spain over the past decade. The average salary has gone up by 17 percent in that time, according to the national statistics institute. Facing pressure over a housing crisis, the government in 2023 passed legislation calling for more social housing, greater restrictions on rents in high demand areas and penalties for owners who do not occupy properties. But rents have continued to rise while the government has battled city and regional authorities to get some parts of the law applied. vid-vab/tw/jm

Claudia Sheinbaum Assures a Good Relationship with Trump Sheinbaum and Trump Discuss Collaboration Mixed Reactions on Social Media About Mexico’s President «There will be time.» Claudia Sheinbaum assures that there will be a good relationship with Donald Trump’s administration. The president of Mexico refrained from specifying a date for a meeting with the U.S. president-elect. Meanwhile, Trump posted on social media about a very productive meeting with Justin Trudeau, the prime minister of Canada. «We have discussed many issues that will require both countries to work together to address, such as the fentanyl and drug crisis,» he stated. Sheinbaum Talks with Trump Over the Phone Claudia Sheinbaum Assures a Good Relationship with Trump – PHOTO: Screenshot from X It is worth noting that on Wednesday, November 27, Claudia Sheinbaum had a phone call with Donald Trump, as reported by Aristegui Noticias. The president of Mexico shared that this conversation did not specifically address the topic of tariffs. YOU MIGHT ALSO BE INTERESTED IN: Sheinbaum says that she never asked Trump to close the border «It was a very cordial conversation between us; we agreed that there will be a very good relationship,» she declared. She clarified that there will not be a tariff war with the U.S.: «One tariff will bring another in response,» she added. Sheinbaum made these comments during the inauguration of the IMSS Family Medicine Unit No. 73 in San Nicolás de los Garza, Nuevo León. «I am convinced that the relationship between Mexico and the U.S. will be good and respectful and that dialogue and collaboration will always prevail,» she said.

There will be a good relationship,» she added. In addition to the meeting with Trump, Sheinbaum discussed the contributions Mexican migrants make to the U.S. economy. It is said that for every 10 immigrants in the U.S. workforce, one or two jobs are created for U.S. citizens. «If Mexican workers stopped consuming in the U.S., their economy would shrink by more than one percentage point of its Gross Domestic Product.» Lastly, she noted that eliminating the consumption of Mexican workers would be equivalent to erasing the value generated by the entirety of agriculture, fishing, and forestry.

President- Elect Donald Trump has nominated former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi for attorney general just hours after his first choice, former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz, withdrew himself from consideration. Bondi, who served as Florida's attorney general from 2011 to 2019, is a longtime Trump ally and was part of his legal team during his first impeachment trial surrounding claims that he threatened to withhold military aid from Ukraine unless they agreed to investigate then-former Vice President Joe Biden. Bondi was one of a number of Republicans who showed up to support Trump during his New York hush money trial that saw the then-former president convicted of 34 felony counts related to payments made to former adult film star Stormy Daniels. She has been a chair at the America First Policy Institute, a think tank set up by former Trump administration staffers. Matt Gaetz withdraws from consideration for attorney general citing 'distraction' to Trump transition . House Ethics Committee made 'no agreement' on releasing Matt Gaetz report after meeting “For too long, the partisan Department of Justice has been weaponized against me and other Republicans - Not anymore,” Trump said in a social media post. “Pam will refocus the DOJ to its intended purpose of fighting Crime, and Making America Safe Again.” Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr. told Fox Business on Sunday that the transition team had backups in mind for his controversial nominees should they fail to get confirmed. The swift selection of Bondi came about six hours after Gaetz withdrew. Gaetz's decision to step aside comes amid continued fallout stemming from the federal sex trafficking investigation which cast doubt on whether he would have been able to be confirmed by the senate. Gaetz has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing throughout both the House Ethics Committee investigation and the Justice Department investigation. The committee yesterday failed to come to an agreement on whether to publicly release the findings of their investigation. The Justice Department declined to bring charges against Gaetz in February 2023. "I had excellent meetings with Senators yesterday. I appreciate their thoughtful feedback - and the incredible support of so many. While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition. There is no time to waste on a needlessly protracted Washington scuffle, thus I'll be withdrawing my name from consideration to serve as Attorney General. Trump's DOJ must be in place and ready on Day 1," Gaetz wrote on X announcing his withdrawal from consideration on Thursday. A number of Republican lawmakers expressed their shock at Trump's nomination of Gaetz and doubted that he was a serious pick for the nation's highest-ranking law enforcement officer. "I recognize that the president-elect has the right to nominate whomever he wishes, but we in Congress have a responsibility under the Constitution and our advise and consent, which will lead to hearings, an FBI background check, and an awful lot of questions being asked in this case," Sen. Susan Collins R-Maine said following Trump's announcement of Gaetz as the nominee. "Pam Bondi is a stellar selection by President Trump for Attorney General. Pam and I worked closely together when she was Florida’s Attorney General and I chaired Criminal Justice in the state house. She’s a proven litigator, an inspiring leader, and a champion for all Americans. She will bring the needed reforms to DOJ," Gaetz wrote on X following the announcement on Thursday. That announcement of Bondi as the new nominee capped a turbulent eight-day period in which Trump sought to capitalize on his decisive election win to force Senate Republicans to accept provocative selections like Gaetz, who had been investigated by the Justice Department before being tapped last week to lead it. The decision could heighten scrutiny on other controversial Trump nominees, including Pentagon pick Pete Hegseth, who faces sexual assault allegations that he denies. “While the momentum was strong, it is clear that my confirmation was unfairly becoming a distraction to the critical work of the Trump/Vance Transition,” Gaetz, a Florida Republican who one day earlier met with senators in an effort to win their support, said in a statement. Trump, in a social media post, said: “I greatly appreciate the recent efforts of Matt Gaetz in seeking approval to be Attorney General. He was doing very well but, at the same time, did not want to be a distraction for the Administration, for which he has much respect. Matt has a wonderful future, and I look forward to watching all of the great things he will do!” Last week, Trump named personal lawyers Todd Blanche, Emil Bove and D. John Sauer to senior roles in the department. Another possible attorney general contender, Matt Whitaker, was announced Wednesday as the U.S. ambassador to NATO.

SME Bank ready to assist flood-affected entrepreneurs, businessesLily-Rose Depp thinks it is "important to protect" her private life. The 25-year-old actress - who is the daughter of Hollywood star Johnny Depp and singer Vanessa Paradis - has been raised to keep certain aspects of her life to herself, especially in an age of social media. Speaking to Natalie Portman for Interview magazine, she said: "I’ve grown up being taught that your private life and your inner life is so precious, and that it really needs to be protected. "Because in this business, and especially today with social media and how much access we have to each other, it’s important to protect that inner life. And to me, when you go on set is the only time you let that out. You have all your super-private feelings in your backpack, and you go to work and the scene starts and you let it out." The 'Nosferatu' star - who has been dating rapper 070 Shake since early 2023 - also tries to live a "normal life" whenever she is not working on a project or promoting a film she has been in. She said: "But I also think it’s important for me to, when I’m not shooting or promoting something, have a very normal life. You and I have always connected about that. I love going to the butcher and the grocery store and having dinner at my friends’ houses. Or, having a lazy morning with my boyfriend. Those things are always going to be the center of my life. Even if I’m working really hard, those things will never lose their value. That’s when things get dangerous, when you don’t see those things as valuable anymore."
The Electoral Commission (EC) has responded to concerns raised by the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) regarding the alleged mishandling of a biometric verification device in the Kwadaso district. The controversy emerged after the NDC accused the EC of breaching protocol by failing to securely store the device, which was intended to be kept at a police depot. Instead, it was reportedly found in the office of an EC officer ahead of the special voting. Ashanti Regional NDC Chairman, Augustus Nana Kwasi Andrews, called for strict sanctions against the officer involved, describing the incident as a serious violation of electoral integrity. In response, the EC has clarified that the situation has been resolved in consultation with all relevant stakeholders, including NDC representatives. Frank Osei, the Ashanti Regional Director of the Electoral Commission, assured the public that security measures are in place to uphold the transparency of the electoral process. “It was an irregularity,” Osei explained to Asaase News. “The officer misunderstood the communication and took the machines to the office. Once this was clarified, the machines were promptly returned to the armoury.” Osei confirmed that the issue had been addressed and that the device could not be used outside of election day. He emphasized that the EC remains committed to ensuring a secure and transparent election process. “We have engaged all stakeholders, including the NDC local executives, and I have not yet received an official complaint from the party. The matter has been resolved, and the election process will continue as planned,” he said.
