US Faces Threats: Foreign Group, Terrorists, and Russia

Japan's ruling party, led by Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi, secured a landslide victory in Sunday's snap election, according to figures collated by public broadcaster NHK. The coalition, including Takaichi's Liberal Democrat Party (LDP), won 352 of 465 seats in Japan's House of Representatives, with the LDP alone securing a majority of 316. This decisive win comes just four months after Takaichi became party leader, following a period of political instability.

In other international developments, Thailand's Prime Minister Anutin Charnavirakul claimed victory in the country's general election, with preliminary vote counts showing his ruling conservatives well ahead of their rivals. Anutin's Bhumjaithai party is projected to win 194 seats in Bangkok's 500-seat parliament, while the reformist People's Party is in second place with 116 seats, according to early results. Anutin stated that his success belonged to "all Thais, no matter whether you voted for us or not."

Meanwhile, in Russia, authorities identified three suspects in the shooting of high-profile military figure Lt. Gen. Vladimir Alexeyev. The man accused of carrying out the attack, Lyubomir Korba, a Ukrainian-born Russian citizen, arrived in Moscow in late December "on assignment from Ukrainian intelligence services to commit a terrorist attack," according to Russia's Investigations Committee (SK). Kyiv has denied involvement in the shooting, which occurred in a residential block of flats in the north-western outskirts of Moscow.

In the United States, U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C., Jeanine Pirro commented on the arrest of Zubayr Al-Bakoush, alleged to be one of the leaders of the 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. Pirro stated, "We're coming for you now. We've got him. We've got a lot more coming."

In other domestic news, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) were the subject of debate. Following the killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, a protester identified as "Andrew" told MS NOW that he flew in from Colorado to help drive federal agents out of the city. The DSA framed the killing as a "murder," identifying "Andrew" as a DSA National Political Committee member.
