"Putin's Inner Circle Denies Ukraine Link in Moscow Terror Attack"

Following a deadly terror attack in Moscow, President Vladimir Putin's response and subsequent landslide election victory signal a consolidation of power reminiscent of autocratic leaders in ex-Soviet countries. The attack has been used to further Putin's narrative of fighting against external threats, while dissent and opposition are being suppressed. The state's control over the narrative and the public's acceptance of diminished democracy raise concerns about the future of Russia under Putin's rule.

"Arrested Election Denier Reveals Confidential Dominion Emails"

Pro-Trump attorney Stefanie Lambert, accused of election tampering in Michigan, was arrested in Washington, D.C. and released on bond with orders to return to Michigan for trial. She faces multiple felony charges for allegedly orchestrating a plan to gain access to voting machines in an attempt to prove election fraud. Lambert, who has worked on 2020 election cases and represented election deniers, claims she is being targeted because she "knows too much." Her arrest is part of ongoing legal actions to restore confidence in the election system, and she also faces separate allegations of leaking confidential court records related to Dominion Voting Systems.

"Pro-Trump Lawyer Released from DC Jail After Arrest in Michigan Election-Tampering Case"

Pro-Trump lawyer Stefanie Lambert was released from a Washington, DC, jail on a $10,000 bond after promising to surrender in Michigan, where she faces election-tampering charges. Her arrest followed a hearing in a defamation case involving Dominion Voting Systems. Lambert's lawyer cited confusion for her failure to appear in Michigan, while a prosecutor preferred to keep her detained. Lambert's leaked Dominion emails have fueled conspiracy theories, and a federal judge ordered her to stop sharing discovery material. Dominion has denied the allegations, and Lambert's arrest has sparked outrage among election deniers.

"Judge Chutkan's Dilemma: Balancing Trump's Actions and the 1st Amendment"

Judge Tanya Chutkan may have to reimpose a gagging order on Donald Trump after he openly discussed a potential key witness on social media. Trump continues to claim that the 2020 election was stolen and commented on attorney Sidney Powell, his co-defendant in the Georgia election tampering case. Powell, who took a plea deal last week, may now have to testify against Trump in both the Georgia and federal cases. Chutkan is considering whether to stay the gagging order while Trump appeals it to a higher federal court.

Trump's Explanation for Skipping Georgia Election-Tamper Arraignment

Former President Donald Trump cited his outrage over cameras in the courtroom as the reason for not appearing at his Georgia arraignment on election-tampering charges. Trump expressed his refusal to play into the hands of the Left and waived his in-person formal arraignment, pleading "NOT GUILTY" to the indictment in the Georgia case. He faces 13 counts, including violating Georgia's anti-racketeering law, conspiracy, filing false documents, making false statements, and asking a public official to violate their oath of office. Trump's trial will be televised and live-streamed online. He is also facing multiple indictments in other criminal cases.

Mark Meadows' Defense Strategy Unveiled in Georgia Criminal Charges

Former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows testified in federal court in an attempt to have the criminal charges against him, including racketeering and soliciting Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to violate his oath of office, moved out of state court and dismissed. Meadows argued that his actions fell within the scope of his federal duties, potentially granting him immunity from the charges. The hearing also featured the presentation of evidence, including an audio recording of a phone call in which former President Donald Trump urged Raffensperger to "find" votes to overturn Joe Biden's victory in Georgia. The judge did not issue an immediate ruling.

"Controversy Surrounding Rachael Rollins and Boston Officials"

Two Boston city councilors are calling for consequences for Councilor Ricardo Arroyo for allegedly welcoming U.S. Attorney Rachael Rollins' attempts to influence the outcome of last year's election for Suffolk District Attorney. Councilor-at-Large Erin Murphy called the ethical violations revealed in the Department of Justice report "disturbing" and joined Council President Ed Flynn in saying that city constituents "have a right to more ethical representation." However, City Councilor Kendra Lara defended Arroyo, stating that Rollins was the one found guilty of wrongdoing and that any other action beyond that is politically motivated.

Michigan Official Sentenced to House Arrest for Ballot Sabotage.

Kathy Funk, a Democrat and former Flint Township clerk in Michigan, has been sentenced to six months of house arrest for breaking a seal on a ballot box in her own election to prevent a recount. Funk must wear an electronic monitor and write a public apology for her actions. She initially claimed that someone had broken into the township hall and damaged the seal on the ballot cannister. Funk won the Democratic nomination by just 79 votes out of about 5,300 and subsequently won the general election that fall.
