A Georgia judge dismissed two counts Thursday against former President Donald Trump in the Georgia 2020 election interference case.

 

Fulton County Judge Scott McAfee said the two counts fall under federal jurisdiction. Both counts deal with conspiracy and filing false documents. Five counts of the original indictment against Trump have now been dismissed. Three were dropped earlier this year by Judge McAfee, who ruled that the charges lacked detail. Trump now faces eight remaining counts in the case, out of the original 13.

 

Trump’s lawyers said in a statement, “President Trump and his legal team in Georgia have prevailed once again.”

 

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who brought the charges against Trump, declined to comment.

Ohio Sending Troopers, Funding To Springfield Over Haitian Influx DeWine’s family operates a charity in Haiti, which has built a network of schools…

 

Ohio’s governor says he is sending law enforcement officials and millions of dollars in health care resources to Springfield, a city at the center of a national spotlight on Haitian illegal immigrants.

 

Gov. Mike DeWine, a Republican, said he doesn’t oppose the Temporary Protected Status program under which some 15,000 Haitians have arrived in the city of about 59,000 people since 2020. However, he said, the federal government must do more to help impacted communities.

 

In a news conference on Sept. 10, DeWine said that “dramatic surges” in illegal immigrants “impact every citizen of the community,” adding that the small Ohio cities of Lima and Findlay also have had influxes.

 

“The federal government simply has to be part of the solution,” the governor said. “They have to step up. It’s their policies that have created these surges.”

 

He said the influx affects “moms who have to wait hours in a waiting room with a sick child, everyone who drives on the streets, and it affects children who go to school in more-crowded classrooms.”

DHS Secretary Mayorkas Criticizes Texas's Handling Of The Border

 

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas criticized Texas’s attempts to stop illegal immigration while praising Vice President Kamala Harris’s role in addressing the “root causes” of the border crisis.

 

Mayorkas spoke Sept. 6 at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin.

 

The annual festival hosts a slate of political speakers, newsmakers, and journalists who discuss current events.

 

“This is the first time that in my 20 to 22 years of government service that I have seen a state act in direct contravention of national interests,” Mayorkas said.

 

Some 10 million illegal immigrants have entered the United States since President Joe Biden took office in January 2021. In March 2021, he put Harris in charge of dealing with illegal immigration. Harris, now the Democratic Party nominee for president, faces criticism for the border crisis as the 2024 election draws near.

 

Texas has spent $11 billion on Operation Lone Star, deploying thousands of Texas National Guard soldiers and Texas Department of Public Safety troopers, transporting illegal immigrants to self-declared sanctuary cities, installing strategic barriers, and building the state’s border wall, according to Andrew Mahaleris, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s press secretary.

 

Texas’s Operation Lone Star was introduced in March 2021 to address “dangerous gaps” in border security created by Biden and Harris, Mahaleris said in an email to The Epoch Times.

 

Those efforts have decreased illegal border crossings by 85 percent, he said.

 

“Until President Biden and Border Czar Harris step up and do their jobs to secure the border, Texas will continue utilizing every tool and strategy to respond,” Mahaleris said.

 

Mayorkas called Abbott’s efforts to bus illegal immigrants to other states and cities without notice to or coordination with receiving cities “incomprehensible” and not good governance.

 

“Is it purely to wreak havoc and disorder in the receiving communities to make a political point?” Mayorkas said.

 

He also criticized Senate Bill 4, which Abbott signed into law and was meant to go into effect on March 5, but it instead remains in limbo after the Biden administration sued. Mayorkas said immigration is the federal government’s responsibility.

 

SB 4 makes crossing into Texas unlawfully from a foreign nation a state felony and empowers state and local law enforcement to make arrests and carry out deportations. The law has some similarities to a 2010 Arizona law that ended up being mostly struck down in a 5–4 Supreme Court decision in 2012. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has said the Supreme Court got the Arizona decision wrong and that it needs to be relitigated.

New York Police Commissioner Resigns Amid Federal Probe

 

New York City Police Commissioner Edward Caban on Sept. 12 resigned from his position, days after his phone was seized in a federal investigation.

 

Caban said he made the decision to resign after the “news around recent developments” had “created a distraction for our department,” according to an email to the police department obtained by The Associated Press.

 

“I am unwilling to let my attention be on anything other than our important work, or the safety of the men and women of the NYPD,” he added.

University of Michigan to use $500,000 for ‘anti-racism’ projects

 

One of the projects is titled ‘Racial Capitalism and Anti-Racism in Kenyan Conservation.’

 

‘The work these teams are pursuing is key in understanding how to dismantle the effects of systemic inequalities across multiple communities,’ a DEI official at the school said.

 

The University of Michigan’s Office of the Vice President for Research (OVPR) has granted almost $500,000 to research subjects tied to “anti-racism.”

 

The announcement was made by the OVPR and published by The University Record on Wednesday. The $500,000 was distributed to eight different research teams.

 

One of the “anti-racism research projects” is titled “Ubuntu-AI: Empowering Design Collaborations Across the Black Atlantic with Artificial Intelligence,” which will examine how “AI might reverse its potentially debilitating impact on Black artisans.”

 

Another group will study “Racial Capitalism and Anti-Racism in Kenyan Conservation,” a project that seeks to “identify how and why racialized conservation injustice occurs and how it can be prevented in the future.”

 

Another project is “Ways of Knowing and Storytelling as Diversity Training Mechanisms,” which “will examine the effectiveness of ‘ways of knowing’ and storytelling interventions on diversity training activities.”

 

The OVPR began its Research Catalyst and Innovation Program in 2021, which fosters research that looks into “complex societal racial inequalities to inform systemic action that achieves equity and justice.”

 

In the three years since, OVPR has granted almost $2 million in “anti-racism grants” to support research into “anti-racism.”

 

“The work these teams are pursuing is key in understanding how to dismantle the effects of systemic inequalities across multiple communities,” said Trachette Jackson, a top Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) official at the school.

 

Other schools have also been using research grants dedicated to promoting DEI and “anti-racism.”

 

This August, the National Science Foundation gave $4.5 million to Louisiana State University to found a “Center for Equity in Faculty Advancement” focused on working “to understand mechanisms that drive bias, along with policy and training interventions to mitigate it.”

IMF backs BRICS expansion

 

Enhanced international economic cooperation should be “welcomed and encouraged,” the fund’s spokeswoman has said

 

When asked if the IMF “sees any dangers in BRICS,” Kozack replied, “our view is that improved and expanding international cooperation and deepening trade and investment ties among groups of countries should be welcomed and encouraged,” especially if aimed at “reducing fragmentation and lowering trade and investment costs” among participating nations.

Israel strips foreign journalists of accreditation

 

The Qatari network “constitutes a threat to the IDF,” according to a government statement

 

On Thursday, the Israeli government’s press office (GPO) stated on X that it is “revoking the GPO cards of Al Jazeera journalists working in Israel (subject to a hearing), following the unanimous government decision in May to shut down the channel in Israel and prohibit its broadcasts.”

 

The statement also quoted press service director Nitzan Chen as saying that “Al Jazeera disseminates false content, which includes incitement against Israelis and Jews and constitutes a threat to IDF soldiers.”
