But for some Arizona voters, only Trump’s election denialism is resonating. A Fox News poll in late August found 32% of Arizona voters surveyed didn’t believe Biden was legitimately elected president. Taylor Hammond, 30, a real estate agent from Phoenix, doesn’t believe Trump lost in 2020. Speaking at a campaign event in Tucson in 2022, Lake said: “We don’t have any McCain Republicans in here, do we? But for other voters, Lake’s false claims about her election loss resonated.

The idea that Cohen talked to Trump about Daniels on that call “was a lie,” Blanche alleged. Moreover, my experience has been that juries don’t decide based upon one moment — they base their judgment on an overall view.”There were allegedly three parties aware of the scheme to conceal the real reason Trump paid Cohen more than $400,000 in supposed legal fees: Trump, Cohen and Allen Weisselberg, then-chief financial officer of the Trump Organization. “Weisselberg could be the linchpin to validate Cohen’s claims about Trump agreeing to reimburse him through Trump Organization, as a business expense,” wrote attorney Stacy Schneider. Trump seems to be tempted to go mano a mano and show that he is better fit to be commander-in-chief. The new requirement for GOP politicians wanting to demonstrate their loyalty to Trump seems to be visiting the Manhattan courthouse where he’s on trial.

☆ Judge Tells Trump to Use Secure Facility for Secret Evidence in Documents Case

For the past few weeks, lawyers for former President Donald J. Trump and federal prosecutors have been arguing about a touchy subject: Should Mr. Trump, accused of mishandling classified documents, be allowed to discuss the secret papers with his lawyers in the secure facility he once used as president at Mar-a-Lago — the very place the F.B.I. swooped down on last summer to retrieve some of the records after he failed to return them? On Wednesday, Judge Aileen M. Cannon, who is presiding over the documents case, gave an answer to that question — albeit one that was rather vague. In an order setting up a series of rules to protect the classified materials at the heart of the proceeding, Judge Cannon said that Mr. Trump would indeed need to use a secure facility to review the sensitive records, but she did not specify where that facility would be. The property was already protected by the Secret Service, the lawyers wrote, and permitting Mr. Trump to talk there about the classified documents likely to emerge during his case would cut down on the “immense practical and logistical hurdles and costs” of having him travel to a SCIF in Miami or another nearby city run by the courts.

CNN —When President Joe Biden referred to his Chinese counterpart as a dictator late Tuesday in California, the response from Beijing was swift and angry. Whether the new acrimony further derails a “thaw” in US-China ties, something that Biden has openly hoped for, remained an open question. “He didn’t know about it,” Biden told donors. Biden and Xi last met at a G20 conference in Bali. “You just saw what’s happened in Italy in that election,” Biden told the donors and Democratic officials at a Washington, D.C. fundraiser.

More recently, he has tried to wrap Ukraine into that narrative, falsely depicting it as a Nazi redoubt. Credit... ReutersUkraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelensky, staked his nation’s own claim to the holiday, with an address on Monday drawing a parallel between World War II and the current war against Russian invaders. In Russia, various regional governors have cited security concerns in canceling Victory Day events. Igor Artamonov, the governor of the Lipetsk region, which is also near Ukraine, said his decision should not be misinterpreted. “No neo-Nazi scum will be able to mar the great Victory Day.

Last year, the nation’s largest LGBTQ advocacy organization, the Human Rights Campaign, labeled 2021 the “worst year” for LGBTQ rights in modern U.S. history, citing a record number of anti-LGBTQ bills introduced in state legislatures across the country. “The LGBTQ+ community is really under siege right now,” said Ricardo Martinez, CEO of LGBTQ advocacy group Equality Texas. One bill that was successfully implemented, and gained national headlines for months, was Florida’s Parental Rights in Education law, or what critics have dubbed the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. The word “grooming” has long been associated with mischaracterizing LGBTQ people, particularly gay men and transgender women, as child sex abusers. Those losses came after some conservative groups ramped up misleading or inflammatory campaign ads targeting transgender rights.

☆ The inside story of Trump’s explosive dinner with Ye and Nick Fuentes

“We saw everybody in the dining room get up and start applauding, and then the president entered,” Fuentes told NBC News. “He greeted us, and he invited Ye into dinner and Ye said that he wanted to bring us with him to the table. “Trump is really impressed with Nick Fuentes,” Ye said in the video. Giorno said she had been caught in the blast radius of the dinner with Ye and Fuentes but was an unwitting participant. About halfway to Mar-a-Lago, Giorno said in an interview, she realized that Ye, Fuentes and the other man weren’t properly attired.

The sources say Justice Department officials are looking carefully at a cross section of past cases involving the mishandling of classified material. Though his comments were about the separate Jan. 6 investigation, Justice Department officials said they apply broadly. Experts say the public evidence in the Mar-a-Lago case seems unambiguous. Less clear is whether there are aggravating factors — such as whether the Justice Department can prove Trump obstructed justice by failing to turn over documents despite a grand jury subpoena. Martin’s lawyers said he was a hoarder, and prosecutors concluded that he had not given classified information to anyone.

☆ 'What are they hiding?': Group sues Biden and National Archives over JFK assassination records

The country's largest online source of JFK assassination records is suing President Joe Biden and the National Archives to force the federal government to release all remaining documents related to the most mysterious murder of a U.S. president nearly 60 years ago. “This is about our history and our right to know it,” said Morley, the author of the JFK Facts blog. The National Archives and Records Administration, the agency in charge of the JFK documents, also said it’s complying with the law and the procedures Biden outlined. JFK assassination historian David Talbot, a Trump critic, said he sees an irony in the two cases. Uscinski said he’s hesitant to draw a direct line between lack of trust in the government and the refusal to release the JFK records, but he argued the feds essentially have themselves to blame.

☆ Oameni de afaceri susțin plafonarea taxelor locale, unele „chiar exagerate”: Pe timp de pandemie, această decizie va salva activitatea multor agenți economici

„Autonomia locală este unul din principiile de bază ale administrației publice locale, fiind garantată atât de legislația națională, cât și de cea internațională. Totuși, aceasta nu restricționează stabilirea prin lege a unor limite maxime pentru cotele taxelor locale. Atât Constituția Republicii Moldova, cât și Carta Europeană a Autonomiei Locale, prevăd stabilirea cotelor taxelor locale de către autoritățile APL în limitele legii. În opinia noastră, la stabilirea taxelor locale urmează a se lua în considerare o metodologie sau un șir criterii clar definite, care vor proteja atât autoritățile publice locale, cât și agenții economici și vor permite determinarea cu maximă obiectivitate a taxelor locale. În aceste împrejurări, orice taxă stabilită arbitrar și fără rațiune economică și juridică, va destabiliza situația economică și va duce la imposibilitatea achitării în general a taxelor, sau, și mai grav, sistarea activității agenților economici.

Reprezentanții HoReCa din țară sunt nemulțumiți de faptul că autoritățile și mass-media etichetează localurile drept focare de COVID-19, fapt ce nu corespunde realității. ”Aceste declarații nu fac decât să știrbească imaginea domeniului în care activăm și să descurajeze, atât agenții economici și angajații, care încearcă să facă față acestei crize fără precedent, cât și oaspeții localurilor. Respectiv, localurile sunt în primul rând interesate de respectarea măsurilor de siguranță, pentru a-și putea desfășura în continuare activitatea. Așteptăm din partea autorităților responsabilitate față de mediul de afaceri și cetățeni, decizii asumate și eficiente, care să garanteze buna lor funcționare”, se mai arară în mesajul „Asociației Naționale a Restaurantelor și a Localurilor de Agrement din Republica Moldova” MĂR.
