In an unexpected turn of events, U.S. officials have revealed that most of the drone sightings reported in the Northeast actually involved manned aircraft, with no threat to national security detected. Meanwhile, President-elect Trump re-ignites the debate on daylight saving time, calling for its end due to inconvenience and costs.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi successfully underwent hip replacement surgery following an injury in Luxembourg. Additionally, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has taken legal action against a New York doctor over abortion pill prescriptions, potentially setting a precedent for conservative states on the matter.

Other significant news includes ABC settling a lawsuit with Trump's presidential library and FAA efforts to streamline commercial space launch procedures.
