Today’s Headlines: Over the weekend, the US and UK launched significant airstrikes, targeting at least 85 sites affiliated with Iran-backed militias in Syria and Yemen. The strikes primarily focused on drone and munitions facilities, resulting in the death of almost 40 militia members. This move is considered serious but a somewhat restrained escalation in response to the drone strike in Jordan. New financial sanctions aim to limit funding for these militias, yet they persist. Iran warned against targeting specific cargo ships, suggesting a continuation of their targeting of ships in the Red Sea. In other news, President Biden won South Carolina's Democratic primary by a landslide, securing all 55 delegates. The Department of Labor released a robust jobs report, with the US economy adding 350,000 jobs in January, exceeding expectations. Unfortunately, Judge Tanya Chutkan postponed the start of Donald Trump's DC trial for election interference, awaiting the Supreme Court's ruling on his immunity claim. Additionally, Trump's donors are covering legal fees for associates, and California faces extreme rain, flooding, and snow, with a state of emergency declared in eight counties due to an atmospheric river system. Evacuations have already taken place, and over half a million people are experiencing power outages.
