WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Vice President Mike Pence testified Thursday before a federal grand jury investigating efforts by then-President Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election, according to a person familiar with the matter. Pence's appearance before a grand jury in Washington scrutinizing the president he once loyally served is a milestone in the Justice Department's investigation and likely gives prosecutors a key first-person account of certain conversations and events in the weeks preceding the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the US Capitol. It also carries significant political implications, coming as Pence hints at entering the 2024 presidential race and a potential run against Trump, the Republican front-runner. The testimony, confirmed by a person familiar with the matter who insisted on anonymity to discuss a secret grand jury matter, came hours after a federal appeals court in a sealed order rejected a bid by Tr...

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The outcome of the race for an open Wisconsin state Senate seat that's been under Republican control for decades was too early to call Tuesday, with only a few hundred votes separating the candidates in a contest that could put the GOP a step closer to being able to override Gov. Tony Evers' vetoes or even impeach him. Republican Rep. Dan Knodl held a narrow lead over Democratic attorney Jodi Habush Sinykin. The Associated Press will continue to track the vote count and consider declaring a winner as election officials confirm they have completed their tabulation of all outstanding ballots. The 8th Senate District, which includes Milwaukee's northern suburbs, came open in November after longtime Republican incumbent Alberta Darling chose to retire after serving 30 years in the Senate. Evers called a special election to fill the position to coincide with Tuesday's state Supreme Court election. A Knodl victory would give Republicans the 22nd vote the...

The "Made for Google" accessory program is delivering a new charging dock for Google Pixel owners that can charge both your Pixel phone and your Pixel Buds at the same time with a 2-in-1 design. Available starting today, this new 2-in-1 Pixel charging dock is made by "Made for Google" partner Wasserstein. The 2-in-1 dock has a black design that has two USB-C ports on board. One port at the front is meant for your smartphone, with a support behind it to help hold the device upright while it's charging. Behind that, another USB-C port is set up to hold your Pixel Buds upright, and there's also a dial to adjust the position of the front USB-C port to better fit your phone (such as if it's in a case). It's a pretty simple design, but one that will probably get the job done. The Pixel Buds slot works for both Pixel Buds Pro and Pixel Buds A-Series (or the 2020 Pixel Buds, if you've still got them)....

Kremlin propagandist Vladimir Solovyov launched an attack on the United States on state television, sharing an image of a map that divides up the U.S, seemingly contesting the legitimacy of its territorial gains throughout history. A clip of Solovyov, a prominent state television host, was shared on Twitter by Anton Gerashchenko, an adviser to Ukraine's minister of internal affairs, on Thursday. "Russian propagandist Solovyev drags his idea of dividing the United States between different countries from show to show," he tweeted. Solovyov regularly lashes out at the West's support of Ukraine in the ongoing war against Russia. In the clip, he seems to contest U.S. support for Ukraine's goal of securing its 1991 borders. He does this by pointing out on a map some of the territorial gains the United States made in the 1800s, seemingly drawing a parallel to Russian ambitions. Russian President Vladimir Putin has, in various declarations, denied Ukraine's national i...

Trump has been indicted, and the GOP reaction to criminal charges against the former president has come with a hefty side of antisemitic conspiracy-mongering.  Virtually everyone in right-wing politics — from lawmakers, to political pundits, to the former president himself — has accused Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg of being a George Soros-funded puppet prosecutor. The connection is pretty weak. On Friday, Soros gave a rare rebuke of attempts to link him to progressive prosecutors, stating that he neither knew Bragg nor donated to his election campaign. "As a matter of fact I did not contribute to his campaign and I don't know him," he told Semafor, "I think some on the right would rather focus on far-fetched conspiracy theories than on the serious charges against the former president." Soros, a Jewish-Hungarian billionaire, is a prolific donor to progressive causes. His wealth and religious affiliation have made...

Joe Maring/Digital Trends Even though Google is the company that makes Android, they don't have a true flagship phone, besides possibly the Pixel 7 Pro, but even then, it doesn't easily compete with the likes of the Samsung S23 Ultra or the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Even so, Google has done well in the 'flagship killer' category, and the Pixel 6a is a great example. Even better, there's a massive sale on Best Buy right now that discounts the Pixel 6a by a whopping $200, bringing it down to just $249 from $449. Why you should buy the Google Pixel 6a While the Google Pixel 6a might not necessarily be a flagship, it still manages to pack a big punch in a small body and at budget pricing. Under the hood, you'll find the Google Tensor chip, which easily competes with the Snapdragon 888, and provides an excellent overall experience. That means you can also get a lot of graphics-heavy gaming done, although that, unfortunately, comes with the side-effect of running rat...

If you had to guess which of the 25 most populous cities in the U.S.A.  were considered the funniest cities in  America,  would you put  Las Vegas  in the top five? How would you even rank the funniest cities? Well,  ShinySmileVeneers.com  has released findings in a new study which ranks the funniest cities in the nation. Their findings were not based on how funny a city's residents are, but rather on how many comedy clubs there are per capita (40 points), how many comedy festivals a city hosts (30 points), how many movie and television comedy specials have been filmed in a city (20 points), and internet search volume for comedy specials, clubs and festivals per capita (10 points). If the study had been based on which city has the funniest residents, I'm sure  Las Vegas would have topped the list, right? However, in this particular study, we ranked at #13. In the state rankings,...

It's been a difficult few years for International Consolidated Airlines Group (LSE:IAG) shareholders. Airline stocks are volatile at the best of times, but public health restrictions to limit the spread of Covid-19 dealt a severe blow to IAG shares. The FTSE 100 group, which owns a number of operators including Aer Lingus, British Airways, and Iberia, is yet to recover from the pandemic. I don't own shares in the company, but if I'd invested £1,000 four years ago, what would I have today? And is the stock now a cheap buy for my portfolio? Let's explore. Four-year return They say a picture paints a thousand words. Well, the chart below tells a sorry story about the recent performance of the IAG share price. Shares in the airline group nosedived in late February 2020. They've been grounded below £2 almost ever since. In fact, the share price briefly dipped into penny stock territory at various points over the past few years. ...

CNN  —  Lawyers for Hunter Biden are scheduled to meet next week with US attorney David Weiss and at least one senior career official from Justice Department headquarters to discuss the long-running investigation into the president's son, multiple sources familiar with the matter told CNN. The Hunter Biden legal team had reached out to Justice officials in recent weeks, asking for an update on the case. As is routine when lawyers request a status update, they were invited to meet next week, according to one source familiar with the meeting. Weiss, the US Attorney in Delaware who was appointed by former President Donald Trump, is overseeing an ongoing criminal case into President Joe Biden's son. After prosecutors narrowed down the possible charges Hunter Biden could face last year, there haven't been any public developments. According to sources familia...
