Kellogg Slams Russia for Stalling Ukraine Peace Talks | JQJO

US Special Envoy Keith Kellogg criticized Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov for blaming Ukraine and the US for stalled peace negotiations. Kellogg, appointed by President Trump, called Peskov's claims 'Orwellian' and urged an immediate ceasefire and trilateral talks. Peskov, while acknowledging potential for peace, pointed to Kyiv and Washington's positions. Russia continues to push maximalist demands, including Ukraine's complete withdrawal from occupied territories, despite battlefield setbacks. This contrasts with the more critical stance of Kellogg compared to his counterpart, Steven Witkoff.

Tyler Shultz, a former Theranos employee, said he was shocked by the portrayal of Elizabeth Holmes in the documentary "You Can See Everything." Shultz, who helped expose the company’s fraud, described Holmes as a "broken woman" onscreen, contrasting her former commanding presence. He also accused Holmes of misleading the film’s director about the company’s blood‑testing device. Holmes, convicted in 2022 of defrauding investors, was living in San Diego in 2023 before beginning an eleven‑year prison sentence. The documentary shows Holmes with her partner and children, highlighting her personal life amid legal consequences.

Dallas‑based Colossal Biosciences reports progress toward resurrecting the extinct dodo, the flightless bird that vanished from Mauritius in the seventeenth century. The company has filled its dodo genome to ninety‑five percent and used its GenoMorph AI platform to pinpoint genetic changes linked to the bird’s distinctive beak and facial structure. Colossal plans to edit these traits into the cells of the Nicobar pigeon, the dodo’s closest living relative. No timeline for hatching a dodo has been announced, but the firm remains committed to de‑extinction research.

The Supreme Court announced it will consider striking down a federal ban on distilling spirits at home. The ban, enacted in eighteen sixty-eight, was aimed at curbing tax evasion. Home brewing of wine and beer has long been permitted. The Hobby Distillers Association and others sued after the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau denied licenses. Two circuit courts split on the issue, prompting the Supreme Court to issue a definitive ruling. If the ban is overturned, distillers would still register stills and pay excise tax.

In their Week six loss to the Carolina Panthers, the Philadelphia Eagles played sixty four snaps on offense and seventy nine on defense. Quarterback Tanner McKee completed twenty six of forty five passes for two hundred fifteen yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions. Running back Dameon Pierce carried twelve times for thirty five yards. Wide receiver DeVonta Smith caught a contested touchdown pass. Tight end Dallas Goedert had six catches on eight targets for sixty one yards, drawing a pass interference that set up a touchdown. The Eagles lacked a run game, with all three primary running backs on injured reserve.

A 17‑person Purdue University expedition that sailed to the remote Pacific island of Nikumaroro in search of Amelia Earhart’s missing aircraft concluded that the object they had initially suspected to be the plane was in fact a clump of washed‑up trees. The team, which spent four days conducting metal‑detecting surveys and other research, reported that the “visual anomaly” was a collection of large trees deposited along the Taraia Peninsula’s sandspit. Purdue said the glint that had attracted attention was caused by a carbonate veneer on the trees, not a metallic surface. The expedition, which was partially sponsored by Purdue, added no new evidence linking the island to Earhart’s disappearance. The search for the 1937‑lost pilot continues, with Nikumaroro remaining a leading candidate for a possible crash‑landing site.

The Indianapolis Colts announced Monday that general manager Chris Ballard was relieved of his duties. Owner Carlie Irsay‑Gordon said a change in leadership is necessary to meet the team’s championship standard. Ballard has served as GM since 2017 and the decision comes after the Colts sit at two wins and four losses following a home defeat to the Tennessee Titans. The move follows criticism from star player DeForest Buckner, who expressed frustration with the organization. Ballard’s tenure included drafting Shaquille Leonard and Jonathan Taylor, signing Daniel Jones, and trading for Sauce Gardner.

Apple’s first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, began shipping dates slipping dramatically within minutes of pre‑orders opening on Friday. Even customers who secured a spot in the first few minutes received estimated shipping dates in January of next year. The delay highlights the company’s struggle to balance supply and demand for a complex new product. While the Duo’s design addresses common foldable issues and has generated excitement, manufacturing challenges—particularly the hinge—appear to limit yield and inventory. Apple’s launch strategy has left many eager buyers waiting months for delivery.
