Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis is to blame for the delay in former President Donald Trump's Georgia election interference case, some legal experts have said. An appeals court in Georgia on Wednesday has indefinitely paused the case against Trump, pending a ruling on defendants' efforts to disqualify Willis from the investigation. Analysts have criticized the prosecutor leading the case against Trump and his co-defendants who have been accused of trying to overturn his 2020 election...

For much of the past year we had been pounding the table on two very simple facts:  not only has the US labor market been appallingly weak, with most of the jobs "gained" in 2023 and meant to signal how strong the Biden "recovery" has been, about to be revised away (as first the Philly Fed and now Bloomberg both admit), but more shockingly, all the job growth in the past few years has gone to illegal aliens. We first pointed this out more than a year ago,...

It might seem strange to call a member of the Kennedy family "a political outsider," and yet Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s outsider label is fueling his quest for the White House this year. Kennedy's supporters see a man who speaks the truth and is running against "the system."   Kennedy has told supporters, "I know that when I get into the White House, I can give you back your country." In an age when trust in government is seen as having reached a low point, Kennedy is attracting both...

House Republicans say they aren’t finished with Anthony Fauci. Emboldened by newly uncovered emails showing attempts by top aides to evade public record laws and lingering anger over coronavirus mitigation efforts, Republicans say they want to bring criminal charges against the nation’s former top infectious diseases official.   Fauci was widely viewed as the public face of the coronavirus pandemic, but Republicans think they are close to finding a smoking gun proving not only...

An Israeli strike early Thursday on a school sheltering displaced Palestinians in central Gaza killed more than 30 people, including 23 women and children, according to local health officials. The Israeli military said that Hamas militants were operating from within the school. It was the latest instance of mass casualties among Palestinians trying to find refuge as Israel expands its offensives in the Gaza Strip. A day earlier, the military announced a new ground and air assault in central...

Israel hit a Gaza school on Thursday with what it described as a targeted airstrike on up to 30 Hamas fighters inside, while a Hamas official said 40 people including women and children were killed as they sheltered in the U.N. site. The strike took place at a sensitive moment in mediated negotiations on a ceasefire agreement entailing the release of hostages seized by Hamas on Oct. 7 and some of the Palestinians held in Israeli jails. Hamas seeks a permanent end to the war. Israel says...

For nearly four years, Republicans have delved into the darkest corners of Hunter Biden’s life, seeking to tie his troubles to his father, President Biden. But as the younger Biden stands trial in Delaware on gun charges, the case’s glaring political contradictions have rendered the G.O.P. largely mute, from former President Donald J. Trump on down. It stands to reason: The baseless claim that the Biden Justice Department is running a political persecution of Mr. Trump is somewhat undermined...

Dozens of people were killed in an Israeli strike on Thursday on a school where the Israel Defense Forces said Hamas was operating from in the Gaza Strip. The IDF estimated that between 20 to 30 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists were at the school, which is run by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinians, when it was hit, according to the Times of Israel. The terrorists were in three classrooms separate from where civilians were sheltering.
