Shutdown Looms, Don Lemon Arrested, and Ukraine Holds Breath

Former CNN host Don Lemon was arrested in Los Angeles on Thursday night following an anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protest he attended at a Minnesota church earlier in January, according to his lawyer Abbe Lowell. Lemon, now working as an independent journalist, faces charges related to disrupting a service at Cities Church in St Paul on January 18, BBC World reported.

Lemon was taken into custody while covering the Grammy Awards, Lowell stated. "Don will fight these charges vigorously and thoroughly in court," he added. Lemon, 59, is scheduled to appear in federal court in Los Angeles on Friday, BBC World reported. The charges stem from an incident where Lemon and a group of protesters entered the Cities Church, alleging that one of the pastors was an ICE official, according to BBC World.

In other news, the United States narrowly avoided a government shutdown as lawmakers remained deadlocked over funding. Democrats had walked away from a bipartisan deal to fund several departments, including Defense, Homeland Security, Education, Transportation, Housing and Urban Development, and Health and Human Services, Fox News reported. The potential shutdown threatened services for military members, FEMA, and TSA, Fox News noted.

Meanwhile, in Ukraine, a relatively quiet night was observed after former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed that Russian President Vladimir Putin agreed not to attack Kyiv and other cities during a cold snap, BBC World reported. The Kremlin confirmed it had agreed to cease attacks on Kyiv until Sunday to "create favourable conditions" for peace talks, according to BBC World. Air raid alerts sounded in only eight Ukrainian regions overnight into Friday, with two minor injuries recorded in Zaporizhzhia, BBC World reported. Temperatures in Kyiv are expected to drop to -24C (-11F) over the coming days, BBC World reported.

In health news, doctors emphasized the importance of snow days for children's well-being, Fox News reported. Experts suggest that snow days help regulate the nervous system, improve mood, and allow kids to return to school more focused and refreshed, Fox News reported. One expert noted that snow days shouldn't be seen as "lost time," Fox News reported.

Finally, The New York Times published a feature on dissociative identity disorder, interviewing more than two dozen people diagnosed with the condition and nearly 20 experts. The article explored the experiences of individuals living with the often misunderstood diagnosis.
