News when you want it with Bloomberg News Now. I'm Monica Ricks. A Ukrainian delegation has arrived in the U.S. for more peace talks to end its war with Russia, even as the Kremlin steps up attacks targeting Ukraine's power grid. Keefe says Russia's weaponizing winter, leaving people in more than 20 settlements without power.
The delegation's working to finalize documents now that include recovery and security guarantees from the U.S. Rallies are underway in Denmark and Greenland now to protest President Trump's threats to take over the territory. As a bipartisan congressional delegation continues talks today in Copenhagen in hopes of de-escalating tensions. Republican Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski.
Greenland needs to be viewed as our ally, not as an asset. President Trump says he could impose tariffs against countries that oppose the takeover. The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation into whether Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry obstructed federal immigration enforcement.
Attorney General Pam Bondi issued a brief statement on social media last night saying no one is above the law. But both Walz and Fry are pushing back, calling it a bullying tactic. Minnesota's Attorney General Keith Ellison agrees and says the Trump administration is weaponizing the DOJ.
When powerful leaders use it, against people who are just doing their jobs as their voters elected them to do, that's a very sad day in America.

Chapter 2: What recent developments are happening in Ukraine's peace talks with the U.S.?
Administration officials say they're still discussing terms with industry leaders and Congress, but say it's designed to reduce costs for Americans and aid in affordability challenges.
White House economic advisor Kevin Hassett says he's headed to Davos, Switzerland with President Trump next week, where the president set to unveil a plan to ban institutional investors from buying single family homes.
When that comes out, there'll be a clear guidance to people about when they can feel free that they're playing on a level playing field when they're competing for a home.
That's Hassett on Fox Business. Trump also wants to allow Americans to use some of their 401k savings towards a down payment on new home purchases. Bayer is getting a high court hearing hoping to get more lawsuits against its Roundup weed killer tossed. Here's Bloomberg's Ed Kalecki.
The Supreme Court has agreed to hear Bayer's appeal taking aim at thousands of lawsuits targeting its top-selling Roundup weed killer for causing cancer. The high court agreed Friday to hear Bayer's challenge to a $1.25 million Missouri jury verdict against the company's Monsanto unit over Roundup on the ground some of the claims were preempted by federal law.
The company already has paid more than $10 billion in verdicts and settlements and has set aside another $6 billion to deal with the litigation. Ed Kalecki, Bloomberg Radio.

Chapter 3: How is Russia impacting Ukraine's infrastructure during the winter?
Elon Musk wants OpenAI and Microsoft to pay him damages up to $134 billion over claims that OpenAI defrauded him by abandoning its nonprofit roots and partnering with the software giant. OpenAI calls the lawsuit baseless and the demand for damages unserious. The CDC says cases of flu keep surging in the U.S., with those dying from it up 25 percent from last week.
Experts estimate at least 18 million people have now caught the flu this season, with at least 14 states seeing very high levels of infection. Doctors are still urging Americans to get vaccinated. And disagreements over pesticide policy are now threatening to slow down an already delayed farm bill in Congress this year. Bloomberg's Amy Morris reports from Washington.
House Agriculture Chair G.T. Thompson still plans to include language in a farm policy package that would limit state and local regulation of pesticides, despite renewed opposition to the proposal from Democrats, some Republicans and health activists. Now, Thompson's reasoning is that it'll drive up the cost of food to have 50 different states using different pesticide regulations.
Thompson brushed aside opposition, pointing out that House Agriculture Committee members, including four Democrats, already voted to advance the proposal.
Chapter 4: What protests are occurring in Denmark regarding U.S. foreign policy?
But that package never came up for a floor vote. In Washington, Amy Morris, Bloomberg Radio. And that's news when you want it with Bloomberg News Now.
