As we have reported, Fani Willis is in the middle of an election race, running again for Fulton County District Attorney. She blew off a debate the other day, forcing her Democratic primary opponent to appear against an empty podium, perhaps a fitting description of her candidacy. You would think that with all the drama she has caused and the attendant scandal, that it might be hard to find anyone who would come out on her behalf. But some members of the clergy came out to endorse her on Monday, appearing with her at the Big Bethel AME Church in...

Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan (R) revealed that he was going to support a “decent person” like President Joe Biden in the upcoming 2024 presidential election over a “criminal defendant without a moral compass.” In an op-ed written in the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Duncan criticized Republicans who “fall in line” behind former President Donald Trump, labeling it as “disappointing” and arguing that those who decide to support Trump as the Republican presidential nominee are “dead wrong” in that mentality.

A defiant Fani Willis refused to appear before a Georgia state senate investigative committee and afterward claimed they don't have the power to subpoena her as they have threatened. The Fulton County, Georgia, district attorney is prosecuting former President Donald Trump in her election interference case, but her own conduct has increasingly come under the microscope.

Ever since her actions came under scrutiny, she has proven to be hot-tempered, entitled, and...

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) huddled Monday for almost two hours with Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) — a marathon meeting suggesting the pair is seeking a deal to defuse tensions and preclude floor action on the Georgia firebrand’s resolution to boot Johnson from power. The two emerged from the Speaker’s office separately but bearing the same message: The discussion was constructive enough that they’ve agreed to meet again Tuesday.

President Trump spoke with reporters following another wasted day sitting in court before corrupt New York Judge Juan Merchan for crimes that have yet to be defined. President Trump was threatened earlier today by far-left Judge Merchan with jail if he continued to defend himself in public.

President Trump told reporters he would gladly go to jail to defend the US Constitution. President Trump: Because this judge is giving me a gag order. And said you’ll go...

A couple weeks ago, reviews for a new wearable AI device started hitting the market. While the device reviews aren’t great, they do give us a hint at the future of wearable technology. If used right in the future, the technology could be used to make people, armed or unarmed, a lot safer from criminal attackers. But, before we get to my ideas on the potential for this technology, let’s first share one of these reviews and discuss what the technology is supposed to do: https://youtu.be/TitZV6k8zfA What It’s Supposed To Be, But Falls Short Of In short, the Humane AI...

JERUSALEM — Israel’s government moved Sunday to shut down the Al Jazeera Media Network’s operations in Israel, clamping down on one of the few international broadcasters providing largely uninterrupted coverage of the Gaza war. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the decision followed a unanimous vote by Israel’s war cabinet, posting on Twitter/X that “the incitement channel Al Jazeera will be closed in Israel.” In a separate statement, he accused Al Jazeera correspondents of having “harmed the security of Israel” and said “the time has come to eject Hamas’s mouthpiece from our country.” Israel’s actions placed it in the company of...

A former Georgia Republican official who had to defend his state’s election administration after Donald Trump tried to overturn the results in 2020 has endorsed President Joe Biden and urged other Republicans to join him in an op-ed published Monday. Former Georgia Lieutenant Gov. Geoff Duncan, who refused to give credence to Trump’s conspiracy theories about Georgia’s election results and opted not to run for reelection in 2022 due to his rift with the former president, is not an entirely surprising critic. He was drafted by No Labels to run as a third-party presidential candidate this year but ultimately decided...

On Monday’s broadcast of “CNN This Morning,” Biden Campaign Co-Chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) said that Israel dropping leaflets warning civilians is “yet another example” “of the IDF continuing to follow the rules of war.” But the reported paused ammunition shipment to Israel “does signal that there are grave concerns on the part of many of us. It is a reminder that many have raised concerns about the conduct of what might be the last phase of this war in Gaza” in Rafah.

Joe and Jill Biden on Monday co-hosted a Cinco de Mayo reception in the Rose Garden at the White House. Biden called illegal aliens “model citizens” in his brief remarks to the attendees. “We are a nation of immigrants and we should never forget it,” Biden said. “We’re a nation of DREAMERs and Cinco de Mayo represents we’re a nation of freedom. That’s America. The America we share and fighting for together.” Biden absurdly claimed he has always been “fundamentally focused on Latinos."
