Unexpected Turns in Trump Election Cases Raise Questions About Their Durability Canceled oral arguments in one case and a judge’s recusal in another have added to questions about the future of four state cases against Donald J. Trump and his allies.

Amid various disqualification efforts, election interference cases in Georgia and Arizona are grinding forward. Nobody expects Trump to be tried while he's in office, but many of his current and former aides and allies still might be. www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/u...

Two Months in Georgia: How Trump Tried to Overturn the Vote The Georgia case offers a vivid reminder of the extraordinary lengths Mr. Trump and his allies went to in the Southern state to reverse the election.

I'm in the Atlanta courthouse where an indictment has been handed up in the investigation of election interference by Donald Trump and his allies. Should have specifics on who was charged later tonight. We posted a story earlier looking back on what happened in GA after the 2020 election.

A headline reads: "The Secret History of Gun Rights: How Lawmakers Armed the NRA." There is a collage of various document clippings that read, "confidential," "NRA" and more.

At least nine U.S. senators and representatives, both Democrats and Republicans, have sat on the NRA’s board of directors over the last half-century, helping the group exercise unrivaled power. This is the secret history of how they reshaped gun culture. https://nyti.ms/3DDz820
