The world said goodbye last month to someone who made history as the first Black Republican woman elected to Congress.Former Utah congresswoman Mia Love, who died after battling brain cancer, didn’t emphasize her race during her campaigns, but acknowledged the significance of her election after her 2014 victory. She said her win defied naysayers who had suggested a Black, Republican, Mormon woman couldn’t win a congressional seat in overwhelmingly white Utah.

, 67. A self-help guru whose multimillion-dollar business toppled after he led a sweat lodge ceremony in Arizona that left three people dead. Jan. 3.Michael Oren, a historian and former Israeli ambassador to the U.S., said there is at least one precedent for Trump’s approach.

“It’s going to drive the people in Washington crazy, but it most closely resembles the Obama administration,” he said.On Barack Obama’s first visit as president to the Middle East, he too skipped Israel.
