MON SIX

The couple agreed to an uncontested divorce, according to New York County Supreme Court records reviewed by USA TODAY on Jan. 6.

The "Trainwreck" star, 44, previously took to social media on Dec. 12 toconfirm her "amicable" split from Fischer, a professional chef and James Beard Award-winning cookbook author.

"Blah blah blah Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years. We love each other very much and will continue to focus on raising our son. We would appreciate people respecting our privacy at this time," Schumer wrote in her Dec. 12 post, which showed a photo of the pair side by side on a subway.

USA TODAY has reached out to representatives of the couple for comment.

Peoplewas first to report the news of the divorce.

The pair shares a 6-year-old son, Gene.

She quipped that the divorce is not because she lost weight or because he is a James Beard award-winning chef who "still pulls some hot tail."

"Amicable and all love and respect! Family forever," she added.

Since the U.S. military seized Venezuelan PresidentNicolás Maduro, a longtime ally of Tehran, over the weekend, Iranian state media headlines and officials have condemned the operation. In the streets and even in some official conversations, however, there's a growing question over whether a similar mission could target the Islamic Republic's top officials including the supreme leader, 86-year-oldAyatollah Ali Khamenei.

The paranoia feeds into wider worries among Iranians. Many fear that close U.S. ally Israel will target Iran again as it did duringthe 12-day warit launched against Tehran in June. Israel killed a slew of top military officials and nuclear scientists, and the U.S.bombed Iranian nuclear enrichment sites. Khamenei is believed to have gone into hiding for his protection.

"God bless our leader, we should be careful too," said Saeed Seyyedi, a 57-year-old teacher in Tehran, worried the U.S. could act as it did in Venezuela.

"The U.S. has always been after plots against Iran, especially when issues like oil, Israel are part of the case. In addition, it can be complicated when it is mixed with the Russia-Ukraine war, the Lebanese (group) Hezbollah and drug accusations."

The U.S. long has accused the Iranian-backed Hezbollah of running drug-smuggling operations to fund its operations, including in Latin America, which the group denies.

'Please pray'

Immediately after Maduro's seizure, an analyst on Iranian state television claimed, without offering evidence, that the U.S. and Israel had plans during the war last year to kidnap Iranian officials with a team of dual-national Iranians. Even for conspiracy-minded Iranian television, airing such a claim is unusual.

Then on Sunday night, the prominent Ayatollah Mohammad Ali Javedan warned an audience at prayers in Tehran University that Khamenei's life was in danger.

"Someone said he had a bad dream that the leader's life is in danger," Javedan said, without elaborating. "Please pray."

However, Iran is roughly twice the size of Venezuela and has what analysts consider to be a much stronger military and robust security forces. The memory of Operation Eagle Claw, a failed U.S. special forces mission to rescue hostages held after the 1979 U.S. Embassy takeover in Tehran, also haunts Washington.

Then there's the political situation in Iran, with its theocracy protected by hard-liners within the paramilitary Revolutionary Guard, who answer only to Khamenei. They could launch assassinations, cyberattacks and assaults on shipping in the Mideast, warned Farzin Nadimi, senior fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy who studies Iran's military.

And crucially, Iran also still has fissile nuclear material.

"In the grand-strategy scheme of things, they need to think about the day after," Nadimi said of anyone considering a Venezuela-style raid. "Iran is a much more complex political situation. They have to calculate the costs and benefits."

Not just the Iranians

Others wonder what part of the world theU.S. might take interest in next, while critics havewarned about setting a dangerous precedent.

"The regime in Iran should pay close attention to what is happening in Venezuela," Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid posted on social media on Saturday.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not directly link Maduro's detention to Iran but acknowledged the protests sweeping Tehran and other cities, saying: "It is very possible that we are standing at the moment when the Iranian people are taking their fate into their own hands."

Hours before the U.S. action in Venezuela,U.S. President Donald Trump warned Iranthat if Tehran "violently kills peaceful protesters" the U.S. "will come to their rescue."

On Monday, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei denounced the comments by Trump and Netanyahu as an "incitement to violence, terrorism and killing."

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican who had been close to Trump but resigned Monday after a falling-out with the president, directly linked the Venezuela operation to Iran.

"The next obvious observation is that by removing Maduro this is a clear move for control over Venezuelan oil supplies that will ensure stability for the next obvious regime change war in Iran," Greene wrote on social media.

'Make Iran Great Again'

U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican, put on a "Make Iran Great Again" hat during a Sunday segment on Fox News. He later posted an image showing him and Trump smiling after the president autographed a similar-looking hat.

"I pray and hope that 2026 will be the year that we make Iran great again," Graham said.

Even Saudi Arabia, Iran's longtime rival that reacheda Chinese-mediated détente with Tehran in 2023, appeared to be thinking about a possible U.S. intervention in Tehran.

"By dragging Maduro before a U.S. court, Trump sent a message more brutal than the massive bombs his aircraft dropped on Iran's nuclear facilities," Ghassan Charbel, editor-in-chief of the Saudi-owned, London-published Asharq Al-Awsat newspaper, wrote Sunday.

"How devastating it must be for Iran's supreme leader to hear of Maduro's abduction at the hands of American forces."

A prosecutor told jurors Tuesday that former school officerAdrian Gonzalesarrived outside the school just before the teenage gunman went inside but didn't make a move to stop him even when a teacher pointed to where he was firing in a parking lot.

The officer went into Robb Elementary only "after the damage had been done," special prosecutor Bill Turner said during opening statements.

The judge overseeing the case and attorneys warned jurors that the testimony and images will be emotional and difficult to process. Among those expected to testify will be some of the victims' families.

Tissue boxes were brought to the families as the testimony began. Some shook their heads as they listened to audio from the first calls for help. Their cries grew louder as the horror unfolded on the recordings.

Defense attorneys disputed that Gonzales — one of two officers charged in the 2022 attack — did nothing, saying he radioed for more help and evacuated children as other police arrived.

"The government makes it want to seem like he just sat there," said defense attorney Nico LaHood. "He did what he could, with what he knew at the time."

Prosecutors focused sharply on Gonzales' steps in the minutes after the shooting began and as the first officers arrived. They did not address the hundreds of other local, state and federal officers who arrived andwaited more than an hourto confront the gunman, who was eventually killed by a tactical team of officers.

Gonzales has pleaded not guilty to child abandonment or endangerment and could be sentenced to a maximum of two years in prison if convicted.

Witness testimony will resume Thursday morning.

Students grabbed scissors to confront attacker

Defense attorneys said Tuesday that Gonzales was focused on assessing where the gunman was while also thinking he was being fired on without protection against a high-powered rifle.

"This isn't a man waiting around. This isn't a man failing to act," defense attorney Jason Goss said.

Gonzales and former Uvalde schools Police Chief Pete Arredondo are the only two officers to face criminal charges over the response. Arredondo's trial has not been scheduled.

Gonzales, a 10-year veteran of the police force, had extensive active shooter training, the special prosecutor said.

"When a child calls 911, we have a right to expect a response," Turner said, his voice trembling with emotion.

As Gonzales waited outside, children and teachers hid inside darkened classrooms and grabbed scissors "to confront a gunman," Turner said. "They did as they had been trained."

Families question why more officers weren't charged

It's rare for an officer to be criminally charged with not doing more to save lives.

"He could have stopped him, but he didn't want to be the target," said Velma Lisa Duran, sister of teacher Irma Garcia, who was among the19 students and two teachers who were killed.

Some families of the victims have voiced anger that more officerswere not chargedgiven that nearly 400 federal, state and local officers converged on the school soon after the attack.

An investigation found 77 minutes passed from the time authorities arrived until they breached the classroom and killed Salvador Ramos, who wasobsessed with violence and notorietyleading up to the shooting.

Reviews found many failures with police response

State and federal reviews of the shooting citedcascading problemsin law enforcement training, communication, leadership and technology, and questioned why officers waited so long.

The officer's attorneys told jurors that there was plenty of blame to go around — from the lack of security at the school to police policy — and that prosecutors will try to play on their emotions by showing photos from the scene.

"What the prosecution wants you to do is get mad at Adrian. They are going to try to play on your emotions," Goss said.

"The monster who hurt these children is dead," he said.

Prosecutors likely will face a high bar to win a conviction. A Florida sheriff's deputy wasacquitted by a juryafter being charged with failing to confront the shooter in theParkland, Florida, school massacre in 2018— the first such prosecution in the U.S. for an on-campus shooting.

The five-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 riot saw the Trump administration and Democrats present two very different accounts of that momentous day, which led to both aHouse impeachmentand afederal criminal indictmentof a former president.

Tuesday's partisan split screen highlighted the starkly different narratives that have formed around Jan. 6 in the years since a mob ofPresident Donald Trump'ssupporters stormed the Capitol to try and prevent the certification of Trump's 2020 election loss toJoe Biden.

January 6 defendants march in DC five years after attack on Capitol

Among Trump's first acts in office after he was inaugurated to begin a second term following his 2024 election victorywas to pardon nearly 1,600 Jan. 6 defendants, a fact the Trump administration highlighted ina new Jan. 6 pageon the White House website.

"President Trump took decisive action to pardon January 6 defendants who were unfairly targeted, overcharged, and used as political examples," the page begins, before continuing with a selected timeline of events that day, video of Trump's speech before the riot, links to government reports about Jan. 6 and other material.

The White House website repeats Trump's unfounded claim about fraud in the 2020 election in slamming Democrats for certifying the results and accusing them of staging "the real insurrection." Much of the site also presents an accounting of the day that's at odds with the findings of a bipartisan investigation into the attack, which also is linked to and criticized on the page.

A federal grand juryindicted Trumpin 2023 on charges he conspired to steal the 2020 election in a series of actions that culminated on Jan. 6. Special Counsel Jack Smith dropped the charges after Trump won the 2024 election, citing a Justice Department policy against prosecuting a sitting president.

Smith, in testimony to Congress last month, said Trump was responsible for the attack on the Capitol.

"Our view of the evidence was that he caused it and that he exploited it and that it was foreseeable to him," he said,according to a transcriptreleased by the House Judiciary Committee.

Many Republicans also voted to certify the 2020 election results and condemned what happened on Jan. 6, includingMike Pence, Trump's former vice president. Pence, who enraged Trump when he certified the election,said in a social media postmarking the five-year anniversary that Jan. 6 "was a tragic day."

"But it became a triumph of freedom when, after Capitol Police quelled the violence, leaders in both chambers in both political parties reconvened the very same day and finished democracy's work under the Constitution," Pence continued.

The White House website, under a heading in its Jan. 6 timeline titled "betrayal of the president," accuses Pence of "cowardice and sabotage."

Democrats warn that Jan. 6 sentiment remains

At a hearing on Capitol Hill to commemorate the anniversary, Democrats warned that Trump's pardons of rioters and hisinstallation of Jan. 6 defendantsinto jobs at the Justice Department underscore how the forces that led to the events of that day are still influencing the country.

"It is still January 6 in America," said Rep. Jamie Raskin, a Maryland Democrat who led the House impeachment proceedings against Trump after the 2021 riot. "And it will be until the forces of strong, nonviolent democracy prevail."

In an emotional moment during the anniversary event, a rioter and former Trump supporter expressed remorse for her actions as she held back tears. Pamela Hemphill, who served a 60-day sentence for participating in the insurrection, later rejected a pardon from the president for her actions.

"Once I got away from the MAGA cult and started educating myself about January the sixth, I knew what I did was wrong," she said. "I am guilty. And I own that guilt."

The crowd knocked her down during the riot, Hemphill said. After her head was stepped on and her knee was cut, she wasn't breathing.

"If it hadn't been for the Capitol Police officers, I would've died," she said.

Former Proud Boy leads march

Another Jan. 6 defendant, former Proud Boy leaderEnrique Tarrio, led a "memorial march"to the Capitol on the anniversary.

Tarrio was convictedof engaging in a seditious conspiracy against the government while he was head of the Proud Boys, a far right extremist group, that culminated in Jan. 6. Hewas sentenced to 22 yearsin prison andlater releasedafter Trump commuted his sentence.

The marchwas billed as honoring those who died on Jan. 6, including Ashli Babbitt, a Trump supporter who was shot and killed inside the Capitol during the riot. The Justice Department recentlysettled a lawsuitbrought by Babbitt's family.

The march began at the Ellipse, where Trump spoke on Jan. 6, 2021, before a crowd of his supporters descended on the Capitol. The event also drew counterprotesters.

More than 140 police officers were injured on Jan. 6 as the mob overran the Capitol,according to the final reportof the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6 Attack on the United States Capitol. At least 2,000 people gained access to the Capitol, according to the report, causing lawmakers to flee in fear.

The committee held nine public hearings and drew on the testimony of more than 70 witnesses, many who served in the Trump administration.

"That evidence has led to an overriding and straight forward conclusion: the central cause of January 6th was one man, former PresidentDonald Trump," the report concluded.

Trump claims Jan. 6 'scandal'

Trump told House Republicans on Tuesday that the committee that investigated the riot ignored that he told protesters to behave "peacefully and patriotically" and "never reported it."

"It's a scandal," Trump said.

In fact, the final report on the investigation quoted Trump telling participants about 20 minutes into his speech near the White House to proceed "peacefully and patriotically." But the report said he later amped up his language with lies about the election and urging participants to "fight like hell" for their planned walk down Pennsylvania Avenue to the Capitol.

Trump also said Tuesday the House investigation never reported that then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California, turned down his offer to provide 10,000 National Guard troops for protection on Jan. 6. Trump alleged that Pelosi was "caught" acknowledging the offer during a documentary her daughter made.

"I said, 'Whoa, this is a major story,'" Trump said. "They are vicious people."

Fact checkershavecalled Trump's statement about offering 10,000 troops false.

The House's final report on the investigation said Trump raised the possibility of deploying troops at the White House but his aides discouraged him, saying they were unnecessary. His acting Secretary of Defense, Christopher Miller, testified there was no order to prepare 10,000 troops.

Pelosi said Tuesday on social mediathat Trump "incited" the "violent insurrection" that forced lawmakers, staffers and reporters to "flee for their lives."

"January 6th was not an aberration and it was not spontaneous," Pelosi said. "It was the culmination of a sustained assault on truth, on the rule of law, and one of the most sacred principles of our democracy: the peaceful transfer of power."

The House impeached Trump a second time after Jan. 6, buthe was acquitted by the Senate,paving the way for him to run again in 2024.

Trump is the only president impeached twice.He told House Republicans on Tuesdaythat they need to maintain control of the chamber, saying Democrats will "find a reason to impeach me" a third time if they win a majority.

Wright has no postseason experience, though his familiarity with kicking in Jacksonville comes in handy with sixth-seeded Buffalo (12-5) traveling to play the AFC South champion Jaguars (13-4) ina wild-card playoffgame on Sunday.

Prater's status is uncertain, with coach Sean McDermott on Monday saying the team would bring in a potential replacement this week. Prater was hurt in the first half of a season-ending 35-8 win over the New York Jets on Sunday in his return after missing two games.

Buffalo avoided re-signing Michael Badgley, who missed an extra-point attempt and had another blocked in the two games filling in for Prater. The Bills signed the 41-year-old Prater in the days before their season opener after Tyler Bass was sidelined by hip and groin issues. Bass has since had season-ending surgery.

Buffalo freed up a practice squad spot by cutting offensive lineman Richard Gouraige. The Bills also signed former Austin Peay and Temple kicker Maddux Trujillo to a reserve-future contract.
