Donald Trump refuses he lost 2020 presidential election, says he could end war in Ukraine in one day

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has refused to admit he lost the 2020 election during a CNN town hall interview.

Trump took questions from Republicans and undeclared individuals in New Hampshire, who plan to vote in the 2024 GOP presidential primary.

Trump is currently facing a number of legal challenges including an indictment in New York over a hush money case and has been found liable for sex abuse and defamation.

The former president launched his reelection bid in November and is currently a frontrunner in the Republican nomination race.

Trump’s biggest potential rival is Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who is yet to put his hat in the ring.

Back at the Town Hall, the White House hopeful spoke about his actions during the January 6 Capitol riot.

Trump blamed then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi among others, saying they were at fault for the building’s security failures.

When asked about the violent protesters who broke into the Capitol, Trump denied taking three hours to tell the individuals to go home.

And what about the war in Ukraine?

Donald Trump would not say if he believes Russian President Vladimir Putin is a war criminal, saying this “should be discussed later.”

As president, Trump says he would meet with Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin and have the war settled in one day.

UK shoppers are tightening budgets for Black Friday, expecting to spend £622—4% less than last year—favoring discounts.


Shoppers across the UK are revising their Black Friday game plan, tightening their budgets as economic pressures reshape spending behaviour. Many are approaching the sales season far more cautiously than before.

Consumers expect to spend an average of £622 this year — a 4% drop from last year — with many relying on discounts and promotions to stretch their budgets. Value is king, with 38% of shoppers saying they’ll only buy items that are at least 50% off.

Rising inflation and income disruptions are adding pressure, and even higher-income households plan to scale back spending across Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Brands and retailers will need to work harder to earn every pound this shopping season.

Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal arrested for shooting two National Guard members; FBI probes potential terrorism link.


An Afghan national, Rahmanullah Lakanwal, has been arrested after allegedly shooting two National Guard members in Washington, D.C. Authorities say Lakanwal previously worked with CIA-backed military units in Afghanistan before coming to the United States.

The victims, Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe, remain in critical condition. Officials warn that if either victim dies, the charges could escalate to first-degree murder as the investigation intensifies.

The FBI is now examining the case as a potential act of terrorism, while the Department of Homeland Security has announced a review of all asylum cases approved under the Biden administration.

Hong Kong arrests construction bosses after deadly fire kills 83; 279 still missing as investigation intensifies.


Hong Kong has been shaken by the arrest of construction company bosses following the city’s most devastating fire in almost 80 years, which claimed at least 83 lives. The blaze erupted at the Wang Fuk Court housing complex in Tai Po, where renovation work was underway.

Authorities report that more than 4,600 residents lived in the high-rise blocks, with most victims found within two of the towers. Shockingly, 279 people remain unaccounted for nearly 24 hours after the fire first broke out.

The Hong Kong government has announced a HK$300 million emergency fund to support survivors and affected residents. Meanwhile, police are deepening their investigation, seizing documents and equipment from the company’s headquarters.
