Mark Meadows, Trump's former White House chief of staff, and lawyers Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman were among those charged. "Rather than abide by Georgia's legal process for election challenges, the defendants engaged in a criminal, racketeering enterprise to overturn Georgia's presidential election result," Willis said at a press conference. A third indictment, in Washington federal court, accuses him of illegally seeking to overturn his 2020 election defeat. Trump persists in falsely claiming he won the November 2020 election although dozens of court cases and state probes have found no evidence to support his claim. Willis's investigation drew on testimony from Trump advisers including Giuliani, who urged state lawmakers in December 2020 not to certify the election, and Republican state officials like Raffensperger and Governor Brian Kemp, who refused to echo Trump's false election claims.

"Trump and the other defendants charged in this indictment refused to accept that Trump lost, and they knowingly and willfully joined a conspiracy to unlawfully change the outcome of the election in favor of Trump," the indictment said. A third indictment, in Washington federal court, accuses him of illegally seeking to overturn his 2020 election defeat. Trump denies wrongdoing in this case as well, and a trial date has yet to be set. Willis's investigation drew on testimony from Trump advisers including Giuliani, who urged state lawmakers in December 2020 not to certify the election, and Republican state officials like Raffensperger and Governor Brian Kemp, who refused to echo Trump's false election claims. While many Republican officials have echoed Trump's false election claims, Kemp and Raffensperger have refused to do so.

Brian Kemp, a Republican, called him a “strong addition to my administration.”“His experience as a tough prosecutor equips him to search out fraud, waste, abuse, and corruption, and bring those to justice who break the law,” Kemp said. According to his inspector general biography, McAfee obtained his undergraduate degree from Emory University in music, where he received a scholarship to play cello in the university’s orchestra. He received his JD from the University of Georgia School of Law. In addition to his professional legal career, McAfee is a volunteer scuba diver and captain of his tennis team. Trump, who is among 19 people charged in the case, has denied any wrongdoing.

Trump has denied wrongdoing in all the cases, saying “the witch hunt continues” in response to the Georgia state court indictment on alleged interference in the 2020 election results. This is true purely as a practical matter, regardless of what Republicans or anyone else think of the merits of the legal cases against him. Paradoxically, the state cases could be an even bigger problem in this area than either of special counsel Jack Smith’s. If convicted of a state crime, Trump wouldn’t possess even the theoretical ability to pardon himself after the election. Unless the reality of the political danger these indictments pose soon sets in, Republicans could be sleepwalking toward disaster in 2024.

A Georgia grand jury indicted Donald Trump on charges related to his effort to overturn the 2020 election. After reportedly making 18 attempts to contact Raffensperger, Trump and his team finally got through to him. Rudy Giuliani arriving at a courthouse in Atlanta to face questions from the special grand jury. That special grand jury completed a report earlier this year summarizing their findings and making charging recommendations to the Fulton County District Attorney's office. Some of those fake electors have reportedly accepted immunity deals with prosecutors in the months since the completion of the special grand jury report.

Ga. prosecutors have found emails and texts linking members of Trump's legal team to a key voting breach, per CNN. The breach in question occurred in Coffee County, a rural GOP-heavy jurisdiction in southeastern Georgia. And some of the individuals linked to the breach in Coffee County might also be charged in the larger criminal investigation. According to individuals who spoke with CNN, investigators in Georgia have amassed evidence that the breach in Coffee County was driven by Trump's legal team so his allies could examine sensitive voting software. Per the CNN report, Georgia investigators have probed the participants of the breach, which included Misty Hampton, the Coffee County official who appeared to have written that invitation.

Kemp on Thursday chided former President Trump over his refusal to sign a GOP loyalty pledge. By signing the pledge, a candidate commits to backing the eventual Republican presidential nominee. During a Newsmax interview earlier this week, Trump scoffed at the GOP debate requirement. Brian Kemp has a stern but simple message for former President Donald Trump: Sign the Republican presidential loyalty pledge. So the former president remains in a precarious political situation in the presidential swing state ahead of 2024.

Brian Kemp speaks to voters during a campaign stop at Williamson Brothers Bar-B-Q on November 3, 2022 in Marietta, Georgia. When Kemp refused to overturn Biden’s 2020 win in Georgia, Trump demonized him and recruited former Sen. David Perdue to challenge Kemp in the 2022 GOP gubernatorial primary. Kemp also testified last year before the Atlanta-area special grand jury probing efforts by Trump to overturn the 2020 election in Georgia. Trump said Wednesday night that he wouldn't sign the pledge to support whoever the Republican nominee is because "I can name three or four people that I wouldn’t support for president." Despite that, Kemp recently told CNN he will “certainly” endorse the 2024 Republican nominee, even if it is Trump.

“We’ve been very vocal with them.”In the Newsmax interview, Mr. Trump said, “I can name three or four people that I wouldn’t support for president,” without naming them. “So right there, there’s a problem right there.”Mr. Trump also said in the interview that he wasn’t convinced it was worth it for him to debate given how far ahead he is in the primary. A recent New York Times/Siena College poll showed him leading the field by an enormous margin, more than 35 percentage points ahead of his nearest competitor, Gov. Some other Republicans criticized Mr. Trump on Thursday for his refusal to commit to supporting a nominee other than himself. Mr. Trump’s vacillation over the pledge is not new; he objected to signing the same loyalty pledge during his first campaign eight years ago.

CNN, however, can identify five of the six co-conspirators based on quotes in the indictment and other context. They include:Co-Conspirator 1 is former Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani. Among other things, the indictment quotes from a voicemail that Co-Conspirator 1 left “for a United States Senator” on January 6, 2021. The quotes in the indictment match quotes from Giuliani’s call intended for GOP Sen. Tommy Tuberville, as reported by CNN and other outlets. The indictment quotes from the memo, and those quotes match a two-page memo that Eastman wrote, as reported and published by CNN.

Trump was indicted for a third time on Tuesday, this time for his attempts to overturn the 2020 election. The indictment refers to six unnamed co-conspirators in the wide-ranging plot. The 45-page indictment claims that six of Trump's associates were co-conspirators in the plot, but doesn't name any of them.

Brian Kemp steadfastly defended Georgia against claims of voter fraud after the 2020 election. Kemp, who rejected Trump's push to overturn Biden's Ga. win, dismissed Giuliani's claims in 2020. "Which is really troubling when you're trying to have secure, accessible, fair elections in the state," Kemp continued. "He doesn't know the Georgia Bureau of Investigation very well," Kemp said of Giuliani in December 2020. After the 2020 election, Trump continued to needle Kemp and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger over their refusal to boost his false election claims and prod legislators to reverse the outcome.

Timothy Shea's sentence was the longest imposed over the "We Build the Wall" campaign, which federal prosecutors said raised more than $25 million from hundreds of thousands of donors. Two other defendants, who pleaded guilty, received shorter prison terms. Former Trump adviser Steve Bannon was also charged in the case, but Trump pardoned him in the final hours of his presidency. Two other defendants, the campaign's leader Brian Kolfage and Andrew Badolato, pleaded guilty and were sentenced in April to 4-1/4 years and three years in prison, respectively. Bannon was criminally charged last September by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg with state law violations arising from the wall campaign.

Fox News personalities are chomping at the bit for Donald Trump to participate in their GOP debate. Several Fox News anchors are practically begging former President Donald Trump to attend their GOP presidential debate on August 23 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, The Washington Post reported. "When you have a big lead, you don't do it," Trump told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo last week. When the network hosted a GOP debate in August 2015 (wherein Trump famously sparred with Megyn Kelly), the network drew in 24 million views, the Post reported. When Trump pulled out of another Fox debate months later, the network logged about half as many views.

Kemp said it was "humbling" that his name has been floated as a GOP presidential candidate. Kemp in a recent interview with CBS-affiliate WRBL said that his priority was leading Georgia. "It's humbling that there are people out there that think I would make a good president. However, Kemp left some wiggle room in his comments, even as he previously said he wouldn't seek the White House in 2024. And I just think a Republican president will get the ox out of the ditch, if you will.

July 12 (Reuters) - Kia (000270.KS) said on Wednesday it will invest more than $200 million in its assembly plant in the U.S. state of Georgia to begin production of its electric EV9 SUV next year. The Korean automaker said the company will add about 200 jobs to build the three-row SUV alongside four other models at the West Point, Georgia, plant. It will be the first Kia electric vehicle assembled in North America and comes as automakers are shifting away from gas-powered vehicles. A rising amount of electric vehicle (EV) and battery investments have been made in Georgia. Hyundai separately broke ground in October on a $5.54 billion EV and battery plant in Georgia's Bryan County.

In March, as Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida laid the groundwork for his presidential run, he joined the Fox News host Brian Kilmeade to play a nationally televised game of catch on his hometown baseball field outside Tampa. The questions Mr. DeSantis faced were as relaxed as the tosses. “Locker room gets you ready for the press, right?” Mr. Kilmeade asked. Four months later, with Mr. DeSantis’s campaign having failed to immediately catch fire against Mr. Trump, Fox News is not taking it quite so easy on Mr. DeSantis anymore.

But one of these panels is expected to be tasked later this summer with deciding whether to approve indictments in the Trump investigation. If there is a true bill, that creates a criminal case,” McBurney said, explaining the grand jury process. McBurney oversaw the special grand jury that previously collected evidence in the Trump investigation. To secure an indictment in the Trump investigation, 16 of the 23 voting grand jury members would need to be present. At the same time, Trump tried to weaponize the Justice Department to help him intervene in the Georgia election.

Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Not everyone with debt would have been covered under the Biden administration’s student loan forgiveness plan. The Supreme Court has barred the Biden administration from carrying out its plan to extinguish up to $20,000 in federal student loan debt, and millions of borrowers will continue to struggle under the weight of their loans. Ms. Schmidt owes $64,000 in student debt, more than half of which is for her graduate work in nursing. But she’s already contemplating how she’ll finance her dream of becoming a civil rights lawyer, which typically requires an additional six figures in student debt. Yet her mother is still paying down student debt of her own.
