Honda is recalling more than 2.5 million cars sold between 2017 and 2020 due to a faulty fuel pump - that can cause vehicles to stall while driving.
The issue means the cars engine may not start - but if it happens while driving it can cause 'crash and injury risks', according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
It is the second big car recall of the week. On Thursday morning, fellow Japanese automaker Toyota was forced to recall 1.1 million cars in the US over airbag issues.

Jim Hoft earlier this week dropped a bombshell that 177 of Jeffrey Epstein’s high profile associates are in for a New Year’s surprise as they will be named in court documents set to be released in the first days of 2024.
A few of the individuals were apparently identified by the Daily Mail, including housekeepers. The only high profile person identified was Harvard law professor Alan Dershowitz.
The material is related to a defamation case brought by Prince Andrew’s accuser Virginia Roberts (now Giuffre) in New York against Epstein’s madam Ghislaine Maxwell. Giuffre released a statement yesterday on X taunting those about to be exposed on the “naughty list.”

CNN’s senior legal analyst Elie Honig explained Thursday how special counsel Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 case against former President Donald Trump could be squashed.
Honig made the comment while discussing Smith’s efforts to expedite his case by getting the U.S. Supreme Court to determine whether Trump is entitled to immunity instead of waiting for the D.C. Circuit Court to rule.
“Why would the justices want to look at the immunity issue now or not now?” CNN’s Kate Bolduan asked. “What does it hinge on and what do you think — if they take it up, what they would do?”

Claims that former President Donald Trump and the GOP pose a grave "threat to democracy" have become a key Democrat talking point ahead of the 2024 elections, but several prominent Republicans and experts say it is really President Biden's party that is working overtime to undermine the vote.
To make their case, they point to Democrats' efforts to keep Trump off the ballot, imprison him, stifle free speech on social media, and rewrite election laws while fighting measures designed to protect ballot integrity. Those ongoing efforts, they say, are a much bigger threat to democracy than the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot Biden and Democrats frequently cite.

One of America’s most cherished monuments was forced to temporarily close after pro-Hamas miscreants defaced the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C.
Cleanup crews were on the scene early Wednesday morning for the job of scrubbing off the words “FREE GAZA,” “FREE PALESTINE” and “LAND BACK” that had been written in blood-red paint on the steps leading up to the temple-style memorial built in honor of the nation’s 16th president, the man who ended slavery. (X Photos) “Vandalism was discovered in the area of Lincoln Memorial Circle and the Reflecting Pool,” United States Park Police said in a statement.

Wednesday night the signing of a Necessity and Urgency Decree (DNU), a form of executive order, that would modify or overturn an estimated 350 federal economic policies.
Milei’s executive order targeted nearly every aspect of the Argentine economy – including imports, price controls, health care, sports federations, landlord and tenant policies, and the yerba mate industry – in what he described as an attempt to impose a “shock stabilization plan” to prevent a financial catastrophe. Argentina is facing the worst economic crisis of its history as a result of decades of socialist policies, lavish government spending, and corruption, fueling skyrocketing rates of poverty, joblessness, and inflation.

On Wednesday Stewart Rhodes, the founder and president of the Oath Keepers reached out to The Gateway Pundit. This was the first time we have heard from Stewart in months since his Washington DC show trial. Stewart was on a 90 day phone restriction at the federal prison he is held at in Maryland.When I asked Stewart how he was doing and if he had any allies in prison he told me, “Almost every prisoner that I talk to here is a Trump supporter and is aware of the nonsense. And I get a lot of fist bumps, actually.” …That’s good! even the prisoners are pro-Trump today!
