Deep dives
Former President Trump Faces Fraud Charges in New York Civil Case
Former President Donald Trump appeared in a New York courtroom to face charges of engaging in fraudulent business practices. State prosecutors accused him of lying about his business operations and deceiving banks, insurers, and customers. Trump's defense argued that his business practices were legitimate and his properties were undervalued. This civil case could have significant implications for his business and properties in New York.
Governor Gavin Newsom Appoints Abortion Activist to Replace Senator Diane Feinstein
California Governor Gavin Newsom appointed Lefanza Butler, the president of abortion activist group Emily's List, as the successor to the late Senator Diane Feinstein. Newsom fulfilled his promise to appoint a Black woman to the senatorial seat. Butler, an openly gay individual, is hyper-progressive and has a strong background in political consulting and advocacy for pro-abortion Democrat women. The appointment has sparked controversy, as other candidates, including Barbara Lee, were also being considered.
California Implements Court-Ordered Treatment Program for Homeless People with Severe Mental Illness
California has implemented a new court-ordered treatment program that targets severely mentally ill homeless individuals. Under the Community Assistance Recovery and Empowerment (CARE) Act, families and healthcare providers can file petitions in civil court to pressure individuals into getting treatment and housing. If approved, a judge can order a year-long care plan. While the program is technically voluntary, judges have some leverage, and non-compliance can lead to more severe measures. In contrast, San Francisco's mayor proposed legislation to make homeless benefits contingent on drug testing and treatment.
Former President Trump faces fraud charges in an NY Civil case, Diane Feinstein’s successor is selected, and a newly implemented CA program seeks to help mentally ill homeless. Get the facts first with Morning Wire.
