President Trump is meeting with U.S. oil executives at the White House to discuss Venezuela's oil infrastructure. Trump said Venezuela has been working with the U.S., and a decision will be made soon on which oil companies will take part in the project. The meeting comes after the U.S. military captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro.        A cellphone video has been shared by the White House that shows the perspective of the federal agent at the center of the ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis. In a post, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says the video is evidence that, "The media smeared an ICE Agent who properly defended." The video was originally posted by "Alpha News," and it appears to show Renee Good behind the wheel, and her wife outside the SUV, getting into a verbal confrontation with ICE agents.        Wall Street is ending the week with stocks higher. Stocks rose with the Dow and S&P 500 hitting record highs despite a slightly weaker than expected December jobs report. Shares of homebuilders jumped as the Trump administration began purchasing mortgage bonds to help drive down rates for homebuyers. At the closing bell, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 237 points to 49-504. The S&P 500 added 44 points to 69-66. The Nasdaq rose 191 points to 23-671.        Image editing has been turned off for most users of Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok. This comes after it faced backlash for allowing users to create explicit images of children and women. The function is now only available for paying subscribers.        Internet access and phone lines are being cut by Iranian authorities as severe economic conditions fuel angry protests across the country. A complete internet shutdown was imposed in Tehran and other Iranian cities shortly after calls for mass protests went out on Thursday. President Trump on Thursday made unverified claims that protesters had taken control of Iran's second biggest city, and renewed his threat to attack Iran if protesters were killed.        The second ticket to the College Football Playoff National Championship game will be punched tonight in Atlanta. Number five Oregon will take on number one Indiana in the Peach Bowl. The winner will take on number ten Miami in the National Championship in Miami Gardens on January 19th.
