Arizona’s attorney general says former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani has been served an indictment in the state’s fake elector case alongside 17 other defendants for his role in an attempt to overturn former President Donald Trump’s loss to Joe Biden in the 2020 election. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes posted the news regarding the Trump-aligned lawyer on her X account late Friday. “The final defendant was served moments ago. @RudyGiuliani nobody is above the law,” Mayes wrote. The attorney general’s spokesman Richie Taylor said in an email to The Associated Press on Saturday that Giuliani faces the same charges as the other defendants, including conspiracy,…

Slovakia’s Prime Minister is steadily approaching a “positive prognosis” after undergoing further surgery, the country’s deputy leader says. Robert Fico, 59, was gravely injured after being shot in the small town of Handlova on Wednesday. He is currently in a serious but stable condition. Officials said it was unlikely he could be moved back to Bratislava in the next few days. Meanwhile, the man charged with his attempted murder appeared in court.

As the Houston area works to clean up and restore power to thousands after deadly storms that left at least seven people dead, it will do so Saturday under a smog warning and as all of southern Texas starts to feel the heat. Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez said three people died during the storm, including an 85-year-old woman whose home caught fire after being struck by lightning and a 60-year-old man who had tried to use his vehicle to power his oxygen tank. Houston Mayor John Whitmire previously said at least four people were killed in the city when the storms…

Lam has been public security minister since 2016 and has taken a hard line on human rights movements in the country. In March, President Vo Van Thuong resigned after a little more than…

A complex mission to Mercury that began its epic space voyage six years ago has encountered critical thrust problems that controllers say could imperil plans to study the closest planet to the sun.  BepiColombo, a joint European and Japanese mission, is on its way to reach Mercury on Sept. 5 for the first of three crucial flybys intended to put the robotic spacecraft on the correct course around the planet next year. In October 2025, its two science probes — one operated by the European Space Agency and the other by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency — would separate from…

When he catches up to her, he grabs her and throws her on the floor, causing her to drop some luggage. He kicks her while she is on the ground, before picking up her bags and kicking her a second time then attempting to drag her by her shirt.

A lawyer for R&B singer Ms Ventura, Douglas Wigdor, said in a statement: “The gut-wrenching video has only further confirmed…

Volkswagen AG’s all-in on electric vehicles plan is no more. The namesake VW brand, which pitched its ID family of electric cars as central to its future, admitted last week it will need more plug-in hybrids as EV sales decelerate. This marks just the latest adjustment VW has made to its electrification strategy after the company botched several model releases and fell behind in China, where local brands now dominate. The manufacturer has also shelved efforts to seek outside investors for its battery unit and scrapped plans for a €2 billion ($2.2 billion) EV factory in Germany. In fact, the automaker is selling so many cars still running on combustion engines that it’s on track to overshoot…

Amethi/Rae Bareli, India – Irfan*, a tea stall owner, is convinced that change is afoot. “There has not been much traffic on this road from Rae Bareli to Amethi ever since the Congress lost power in 2014,” he says, referring to two towns and a party that for decades have been synonymous with one family – the Nehru-Gandhis, or as they are more commonly known, the Gandhis. The first family of Indian politics has ruled the country for almost half of its journey since independence in 1947, with three generations of prime ministers: Jawaharlal Nehru, his daughter Indira Gandhi, and…

There’s an elegance to efficiency. Doing as much as possible with as few resources as you can requires coming up with clever solutions that you might not have otherwise needed. That’s part of what makes Logitech’s G Pro X 60 keyboard so impressive. It’s a 60 percent variant of our top keyboard pick but manages to keep nearly everything we like about its larger sibling. A 60 percent keyboard is one of the smallest, most compact keyboard layouts you can find. In addition to lopping off the Numpad like most TKL boards (including the G Pro X) do, the Pro…

There are few topics as controversial as safe sun exposure. Sunbathing and tanning often get a bad rap, but mounting evidence reveals that moderate sun exposure is not only safe but necessary. In fact, the most recent in-depth review found that avoiding the sun was similar to smoking as a risk for all-cause mortality. Put simply, avoiding the sun may be as dangerous as smoking cigarettes! Is Sun Exposure Safe? First, let’s collectively pause and take a deep breath. As I mentioned earlier, this is a controversial topic. I’m just here to share insights gleaned from personal research and blood…
