Jenna Ellis Agrees To Cooperate With Arizona Prosecutors
Jenna Ellis Agrees To Cooperate With Arizona Prosecutors Former Trump attorney signs deal to provide evidence against co-defendants accused of election fraudJenna Ellis, the former legal advisor to Donald Trump during his 2020 presidential campaign, has made headlines again after signing a cooperation agreement with Arizona prosecutors. The Arizona Attorney General, Kris Mayes, announced on Monday the significant turn of events, disclosing how the state would drop nine felony charges against Ellis as part of her agreement to cooperate. Last year, she also agreed to cooperate with prosecutors after pleading guilty to charges connected to election interference efforts in Georgia. Arizona isn't alone; investigations and prosecutions pertinent to activities linked to the 2020 election have taken place across the nation. It isn't just about Ellis's testimony and cooperation; her case exemplifies the precarious cliffhanger of legality intertwined with political maneuvers and challenges.

Commentary: Trump proved himself unfit to be commander in chief
There really isn’t one, because one of the two major-party presidential candidates is clearly, demonstrably, irredeemably unfit to serve as commander in chief. But what settles the question altogether is the certainty that former President Trump would end the military’s bedrock contract with the American people: nonpartisanship. “You f— generals, why can’t you be like the German generals?” Trump complained to his chief of staff, retired Gen. John Kelly, in 2018. Trump clarified that he wanted generals who were “totally loyal” and “yes-men,” like the Nazi commanders under Adolf Hitler. Trump would deploy the military as a political prop in service of his own brand, as he already tried to do.

'It was magical.' US wins first medal in artistic swimming in 20 years.
SAINT-DENIS, France — It may have been heartbreak, a failure by the slimmest of margins, which made all the difference. The American women not only earned their spot in Paris a few months later, they rode the momentum to an unexpected silver medal in the team competition at the 2024 Summer Olympics. "It worked so well, each routine, each lift that we did, it was just magical." Still, the result showed how far the U.S. has come since coach Andrea Fuentes took over a struggling program in 2018. "Chasing the medal for the first time in 20 years," she said, "I'm so proud."

She’s a Femininomenon: The Rise (and not fall) of Chappell Roan as a Queer Pop Icon
The music industry has experienced a notable absence of a female queer pop idol [SH1] for decades. However, these artists are mainly prominent in the indie pop and R&B genre, and face challenges in breaking into the mainstream pop arena. Many of these artists rely heavily on their semi-niche platforms and dedicated fan bases, rather than experiencing the universal fame that mainstream pop icons achieve. The rise of musical artist Chappell Roan is a groundbreaking emergence of a new and improved era of queer pop- one that authentically celebrates the queer experience in the mainstream. Roan stands as a prominent shift in the music industry, where queerness is increasingly embraced and celebrated in mainstream pop culture.
