NEWSWEEK: How are you sleeping these days? Salam Fayyad: You tend to wake up in the middle of the night. It’s not easy. I know it’s not easy. In my own way, I have reconciled these challenges. What helps me sleep is the knowledge that I’m doing the best I can. But yes, sometimes I wake up. Out of worry. [Hamas co-founder] Mahmoud Zahar once told me that he asked you to do this job a year ago, and you said no....
NEWSWEEK: Are you where you expected to be at this point? David McKiernan: I haven’t gone through an after-action review process yet. But I think at this point in the campaign, if you were to stand back from it six weeks ago and say at D plus 43 we’re here in Baghdad, we’re turning the lights back on, we’re getting power generation back on line, we’re working with water treatment, hiring local police and on and on and on–I think it’s a pretty remarkable achievement....
Many candidates linked to the QAnon conspiracy theory, or influencers who support the movement, lost their races as voters rejected extremist politicians at the polls. But Tyndale University professor and author of The QAnon Deception, James Beverley, told Newsweek, despite the failure of the red wave to materialize, QAnon is “not going away anytime soon.” Followers of the movement, who were at the “Stop the Steal” rally on January 6, 2021, the day of the Capitol riots, had hoped the 2020 election-deniers they backed would find themselves in positions to influence future votes....

Newsweek has tallied at least 44 people who have at some point shared information and messages around QAnon, or suggested they are open to the theory, running in races for Congress, state legislatures, and mayoralties. Many are running for a position they are unlikely to win because it is a safe seat for their opponent or they are not the favored GOP candidate.

In the fall, Ukraine initiated a counteroffensive that pummeled Russian troops in certain regions, leading to a withdrawal of Russian troops from Kherson in November.

You’ve just come back from Kenya. How alarmed were you by what you observed there? Can you talk a little bit about the situation on the ground? The thing that I was most alarmed about was how polarized the public seems. There is a lot of stereotyping about different ethnic groups. There is certainly a feeling among those who feel that they were cheated in the election—i.e. the Orange Democratic Movement [ODM] supporters—that they’ve once again been disenfranchised, that once again all of the resources are going to go to one ethnic group, particularly the Kikuyu [the ethnic group of Kenya’s President Mwai Kibaki]....
