Then there were three – Trump, DeSantis and Haley

Published

Suffering from the defeat at the hands of former President Donald Trump in Iowa, Republican candidates vying to challenge Trump for the party’s presidential nomination turn their attention to New Hampshire.

Despite facing a multitude of criminal and civil cases, Trump emerged the winner in Iowa, marking a historic triumph over his rivals.

The 77-year-old former president appeared in a New York court to defend himself against defamation charges brought by writer E. Jean Carroll, who accused him of sexual assault decades ago.

With more than half of Iowa voters supporting Trump, the stage is set for a potentially fierce rematch between Trump and Democratic President Joe Biden, 81, in the upcoming November presidential election.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis secured second place in Iowa, trailing far behind Trump, while former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, 51, landed in third.

Notably, Trump has declined to participate in debates with his Republican rivals, prompting Haley to announce that she would only engage in future debates if Trump were present.

Two such debates are scheduled ahead of New Hampshire’s primary contest on January 23.

Australia shuts millions of teen social media accounts

Australia’s social media ban leads to 4.7 million teen account closures, prompting debate over online safety and freedom.

Nearly five million social media accounts belonging to Australian teenagers have been closed since the nation’s social media ban began in December. Platforms such as Instagram and TikTok were responsible for removing around 4.7 million accounts held by minors, according to the eSafety Commissioner.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese described the figures as encouraging, highlighting the government’s commitment to protecting children online. The new law holds social media companies accountable, with fines imposed on platforms that fail to prevent underage accounts from being created or maintained.

Despite these measures, some teenagers have reportedly bypassed the restrictions by falsifying their ages or using parental information. The debate continues over the effectiveness of these regulations and the balance between safety and online freedom.
