Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:14:52 GMT

WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump is due in federal court Thursday to answer to charges that he sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election, facing a judge just blocks from the U.S. Capitol that his supporters stormed to block the peaceful transfer of presidential power.In what's by now become a familiar but nonetheless stunning ritual, Trump is expected to be processed by law enforcement, be officially taken into custody and enter a not guilty plea in front of a judge before being released, so he can rejoin the campaign trail as he seeks to reclaim the White House in 2024.An indictment Tuesday from Justice Department special counsel Jack Smith charges Trump with four felony counts related to his efforts to undo the presidential election in the run-up to the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the Capitol, including conspiracy to defraud the U.S. government and conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding. The charges could lead to a yearslong prison sentence i...

Ask Amy: I’m afraid our family reunion will go badly for this teen

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:14:52 GMT

Dear Amy: Every year my extended family meets for a summer reunion.Two of us are gay. Starting when he was quite young, we assumed that my nephew was also gay. No one talked about it, it was just assumed he’d figure it out and it wouldn’t be a big deal.Two years ago, when he was 16, he started growing and dyeing his hair and wearing nail polish but still referred to himself as “he.” We assumed he was either doing the teenager thing or was about to tell us he was gay.Well, we were wrong. He’s not heterosexual (no shock) but has decided he’s trans and now goes by the gender-neutral name “Ash.”Now Ash is making baby steps into the world as a trans person.To say my family is less than supportive is an understatement.  This includes Ash’s parents. Gay they’re OK with, but I guess trans is a bridge too far.Our annual get-together is coming up, and my plan is to wait and see how Ash refers to themself and take it from there. I’m petrified about how...

A Pro-Putin Facebook Network Is Pumping French-Language Propaganda Into Africa

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 16:14:52 GMT

As Russia strengthens ties with governments across French-speaking parts of West and Central Africa, social media users in the region have faced a well-documented barrage of pro-Moscow influence campaigns: a swarm of videos, images, and news stories depicting Russia in a positive light — typically at the expense of France, the region’s former colonial power.A report shared with The Intercept shines a light on one such campaign in action — and it appears to be reaching an especially large audience.According to an Intercept review of investigations conducted by the tech watchdog group Reset, a network of 53 Facebook pages has been amplifying French-language videos promoting the Kremlin’s line on the war in Ukraine, starting in March. According to Reset, the pages share the common traits of “coordinated inauthentic behavior,” a term used by Meta, Facebook’s parent company, to describe when pages misrepresent themselves and work together in pursuit of specific political or financial goa...
