Joe Biden drops out of presidential race
SUMMARY: Joe Biden is exiting the Democratic presidential race due to two significant factors. First, his debate performance against Donald Trump highlighted his age, leading to concerns about his ability to effectively advocate for the American people, which caused panic among donors and lawmakers. Second, Democrats are anxious about defeating Trump, viewing a potential second term as a threat to democracy and the constitutional republic. They fear his proposed policies could worsen inflation and debt, and jeopardize international alliances. This overriding fear has prompted calls for a new candidate for president.
President Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race for the White House on Sunday, ending his bid for reelection after a disastrous debate with Donald Trump that raised doubts about the incumbent’s fitness for office with the election just four months away. It was a late-season campaign thunderstrike unlike any in American history: https://www.11alive.com/article/news/nation-world/biden-withdraws-2024-election/507-92f6f16b-20d9-4af2-b4a0-7123957571f5

Judge rules DA Fani Willis doesn't need emergency injunction in fight against subpoena because heari
SUMMARY: A judge denied Fulton County DA Fani Willis’s emergency motion to block two subpoenas from a Georgia State Senate committee related to her prosecution of former President Trump and co-defendants in the 2020 election interference case. The ruling came after a hearing where Willis was scheduled to testify. The judge stated that the Senate committee had not secured a court order requiring her compliance with the subpoena. The Republican-led committee aims to question Willis under oath about her personal relationship with former prosecutor Nathan Wade, who previously left the case after Willis acknowledged their relationship.
It was a ruling largely on procedural grounds.
