Hundred of climate activists 3 protested outside the office of incoming House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, demanding House Democratic leaders form a select committee for a green new deal. Dozens were arrested during the demonstration 4, organized by the environmental group Sunrise Movement.


Prosecutors 5 say they've "resolved" a case against a woman accused of being a secret agent for the Russian government. The information came in a court filing Monday in the case against Maria Butina. It's a sign she has likely taken a plea deal.
