Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado says she'll be back in her country soon. Machado left Venezuela last month to accept the Nobel Peace Prize and hasn't yet returned. Now that the U.S. has forcibly removed president Nicolas Maduro in a military operation, Machado told Fox News on Monday that she'll be back to help dismantle what she called the criminal structures of the Maduro government. President Trump says Republicans will "break records" in this year's midterm elections. He addressed the annual GOP retreat Tuesday at the newly renamed Trump Kennedy Center. This year will be critical for Republicans in the House as they look to keep their slim margin. Northern California Republican Congressman Doug LaMalfa died during surgery after suffering a medical emergency. Officials say emergency personnel were called to LaMalfa's home shortly before seven o'clock Monday night. He died early this morning at a hospital in Chico. A lawmaker familiar with the matter tells Politico LaMalfa suffered an aneurysm, then a heart attack during surgery. Opening statements are underway in the first trial connected to the slow police response to the mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. Former Uvalde school officer Adrian Gonzales is accused of failing to engage the gunman after arriving at Robb Elementary School during the massacre May 24th, 2022. Today, prosecutors say Gonzales was told the gunman was in the parking lot and had not entered any classroom, yet he failed to move from his location after he radioed in the information. The Dow Jones Industrial Average closed above 49-thousand for the first time ever as stocks extended a post-Venezuela attack rally. The S&P 500 also hit a fresh all-time high as Amazon and other A-I-related shares boosted the broader market. At the closing bell, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 484 points to 49-462. The S&P 500 rose 42 points to 69-44. The Nasdaq climbed 151 points to 23-547. The series finale of Stranger Things is being credited for helping Netflix reach a new viewership record on New Year's Day.
