NPR reports that the metaphorical measure of challenges facing humanity has now moved closer to widespread calamity than ever before.

According to the scientific body, the decision was made "largely though not exclusively" to Russia's war in Ukraine.

Each January, the group evaluates the state of the world and updates the clock accordingly.

In 2020, the clock was set to 100 seconds to midnight and was the first time the clock was counted in seconds rather than minutes.

At the time, the scientific group, warned that humanity was, "at doom's doorstep.".

In 2021 and 2022, the clock remained at, 100 seconds to midnight.

However, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the global ramifications of its aggression have inched humanity ten metaphorical seconds closer to annhilation.

The Doomsday Clock is sounding an alarm for the whole of humanity.

We are on the brink of a precipice.

But our leaders are not acting at sufficient speed or scale to secure a peaceful and livable planet, Science and security board of the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, via NPR.

Trump Loyalist Russel Vought Takes Over DOGE, Vought To Lead Mass Layoffs With ‘Slash & Burn’ Agenda

Elon Musk has stepped down from leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), handing the reins to conservative policy strategist Russell Vought. A key Trump ally, Vought is best known for shaping Project 2025 and pushing aggressive spending cuts and federal downsizing. He aims to revive Trump’s Schedule F and slash budgets at agencies like USAID and NPR. Musk, who reportedly wants to focus on Tesla and SpaceX, had worked closely with Vought during DOGE’s early days. Critics warn Vought's Christian nationalist leanings and military spending cuts may spark major backlash. #ElonMusk #RussellVought #DOGE #Trump #GovernmentEfficiency #Project2025 #ScheduleF #FederalCuts #ChristianNationalism #Tesla #SpaceX #MuskExit #VoughtAgenda #BudgetCuts #NPR #USAID #CFPB #MilitarySpending #GOP #PoliticalNews #WashingtonWatch #BureaucracyReform #TrumpAdmin #GovernmentOverhaul #WhiteHousePolicy #SpendingCuts #PolicyShift #BreakingNews #ConservativeAgenda #MuskVsVought Also Read Elon Musk Exits Trump Administration After Slamming ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ on His Way Out :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-exits-trump-administration-after-slamming-big-beautiful-bill-on-his-way-out-4166709.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk Criticises Trump's 'Big Beautiful Bill', A Fracture In Key Relationship :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-criticises-trumps-big-beautiful-bill-a-fracture-in-key-relationship-4166667.html?ref=DMDesc SpaceX Starship Explodes Mid-Flight During Third Test, Firm Cites 'Rapid Unscheduled Disassembly' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/spacex-starship-explodes-mid-flight-during-third-test-firm-cites-rapid-unscheduled-disassembly-4165683.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~GR.124~

“No Deal? Too Bad” — Trump Threatens Massive Sanctions on Russia as 50-Day Deadline Looms

U.S President Donald Trump has issued a blistering 50-day warning to Russia: reach a deal, or face the full force of U.S. tariffs and sanctions. Speaking on the Ukraine-Russia war, Biden declared he’s “on nobody’s side” — except the side that wants the killing to stop. But if Moscow doesn’t act, the U.S. is ready to strike economically. With time ticking and global tensions high, this could mark a major turning point in the war — or a slide into deeper confrontation. What happens if the Kremlin refuses? And is Biden ready to follow through? #Biden #Russia #UkraineWar #Putin #BidenSpeech #USPolitics #Sanctions #Tariffs #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #UkraineCrisis #RussiaSanctions #BidenWarning #InternationalRelations #GlobalTensions #BidenVsPutin ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

Russia MOCKS Trump’s ‘Ultimatum’ | Lavrov Laughs at 100% Tariffs & U.S.-EU Weapons Push for Ukraine [Video]

Russia MOCKS Trump’s ‘Ultimatum’ | Lavrov Laughs at 100% Tariffs & U.S.-EU Weapons Push for Ukraine

A fierce war of words has erupted between the United States and Russia after former US President Donald Trump threatened to impose "secondary tariffs" of up to 100% if Moscow does not end the war in Ukraine within 50 days. Trump, speaking at a White House press event, warned that he was "very unhappy" with the ongoing conflict and that severe economic consequences would follow. Responding to the threat, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov delivered a sharp and dismissive rebuke from China. Lavrov stated unequivocally, "We are not worried, it's not our job to worry," indicating that Russia is prepared to withstand any new sanctions. He further mocked Trump's timeline, pointing out the shifting deadlines from the US. "Now it's 50 days, it used to be 24 hours, also 100 days. We've been through that already," Lavrov commented, suggesting a lack of seriousness in the American threat. The defiant stance was echoed by Russian Deputy Minister Ryabkov, who asserted that "any attempts to make demands or ultimatums are unacceptable" to the Kremlin. This bold response comes even as the United States finalizes plans to supply more advanced weaponry to Ukraine, with funding provided by the European Union. Russia's confidence appears unshaken, escalating geopolitical tensions and leaving the world to wonder what Trump's next move will be in this high-stakes standoff. #Trump #Russia #UkraineWar #SergeiLavrov #BreakingNews #WorldNews #Geopolitics #USTariffs #OneindiaNews #USRussiaRelations Also Read Can You Hit Moscow?

Putin's Agent Caught Planting Bomb in Ukrainian Apartment — SBU Foils Deadly Terror Plot in Rivne [Video]

Putin's Agent Caught Planting Bomb in Ukrainian Apartment — SBU Foils Deadly Terror Plot in Rivne

Ukraine’s Security Service (SBU) has intercepted a Russian agent caught red-handed planting a bomb in a civilian apartment in Rivne, Western Ukraine. The suspect, a 27-year-old man from Lviv, was allegedly recruited via Telegram by Russian intelligence with promises of “easy money.” The device was intended to be detonated remotely in a densely populated city center, aiming to inflict maximum civilian casualties and spread fear. The suspect now faces terrorism-related charges, conspiracy, and illegal possession of explosives. Authorities say this plot is part of a wider Russian campaign targeting civilians far from the frontlines, often exploiting vulnerable individuals with criminal or addiction histories. This is yet another stark reminder that Putin’s war is not limited to the battlefield. #Ukraine #Russia #SBU #Rivne #TerrorPlot #RussianAgent #TelegramRecruitment #Putin #UkraineWar #SecurityNews #BreakingNews #CivilianTargeting #HybridWarfare #EasternEurope #WaronCivilians Also Read US Will Send Patriot Missiles To Ukraine: Trump Takes U-Turn Over Arm Deliveries To Kyiv :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-send-patriot-missiles-to-ukraine-trump-takes-u-turn-over-arm-deliveries-to-kyiv-011-7800325.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~

US Breaking: ICE Agent Pulls Out Rifle on SF Protesters Outside  Courthouse | Woman Thrown from SUV [Video]

US Breaking: ICE Agent Pulls Out Rifle on SF Protesters Outside Courthouse | Woman Thrown from SUV

Chaos erupted on the streets of San Francisco on Tuesday as federal immigration agents clashed violently with protesters outside a city courthouse. The confrontation, now being called the most violent of its kind in the city this year, saw Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents using aggressive tactics against a group of approximately 20 demonstrators. The tense situation began around 11:18 a.m. when ICE agents attempted toescort a detained man from the courthouse. Protesters quickly formed a human chain, using their bodies and bicycles to block the exit while shouting anti-ICE slogans. In response, several agents, with their faces covered, were seen deploying pepper spray, pushing protesters to the ground with batons, and yelling expletives. The situation escalated dramatically when one agent brandished a rifle to intimidate the crowd. The most shocking moment occurred when a black SUV, reportedly waiting for the agents, sped through the crowd of protesters. Witnesses reported that a woman was thrown from the hood of the moving vehicle, which then almost ran her over a block away. This incident has sparked outrage and raises serious questions about the use of force by federal agents during public demonstrations in the United States. #SanFrancisco #ICE #USNews #Protest #BreakingNews #LatestNews #ViralVideo #OneindiaNews #Immigration #WorldNews Also Read ICE Allegedly Violated Rights of US Citizen and 21 Others During Arrests in Chicago :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ice-violated-rights-us-citizen-chicago-activists-allege-011-4097557.html?ref=DMDesc Zakir Hussain Faces Critical Health Challenges in San Francisco ICU Due to Heart Issues :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/zakir-hussain-heart-problems-san-francisco-011-4016713.html?ref=DMDesc Zakir Hussain Admitted to ICU in San Francisco Due to Heart Problems :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/zakir-hussain-heart-problems-san-francisco-011-4016689.html?ref=DMDesc
