Quick Glance: Ted Cruz's Worries Over Senate Seat
  • Ted Cruz, the Texas senator, is under pressure due to his questionable podcast deal with iHeartMedia, amidst his increasingly desperate fundraising efforts.

  • Cruz is being outpaced by his opponent Colin Allred in fundraising by three times, which might explain his fundraising concerns for reelection.

  • The payments from iHeartMedia to a Cruz-affiliated Super PAC raise questions of potential unlawful contributions, as federal officials are prohibited from soliciting over $5,000 to PACs.

  • Cruz is struggling to retain his Senate seat as Texas, once a reliable red state, is swiftly turning into a purple battleground, causing concern within the Republican Party.

Quick Glance: Trump faces Legal Setbacks Over Dismissal Calls
  • Donald Trump suffered two legal setbacks on Thursday as judges rejected his requests to dismiss criminal charges related to his efforts to overturn his 2020 loss in Georgia and holding classified records after leaving office.

  • An ally of the Republican presidential candidate, former Justice Department official Jeffrey Clark, also faced potential disbarment after violating attorney ethics rules in trying to help overturn Trump's loss.

  • These cases are among the legal entanglements Trump faces as he challenges President Joe Biden in the upcoming election, with the first-ever trial of a sitting or former U.S. president set to start on April 15 in New York.

  • Trump's argument justifying his retention of highly sensitive documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida post-presidency was rejected, with prosecutors arguing that the documents related to military and intelligence matters could not be considered personal.

  • Trump, along with allies, faces 10 charges in Georgia related to the election, with his attorney pressing a First Amendment defense while other defendants like David Shafer also challenge their charges.

  • McAfee presided over the hearing, where various legal arguments were presented, including challenges to the indictment's language regarding Shafer's involvement in sending alternate electors and Trump's alleged false votes.

Quick Glance: Trump Appeals Ruling Allowing DA Fani Willis in Georgia Election Interference Case
  • Former President Donald Trump and several co-defendants filed an appeal against the ruling that allowed Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to stay on the Georgia election interference case.

  • The appeal argues that Judge Scott McAfee erred by not requiring dismissal and Willis' disqualification.

  • A three-judge panel will be assigned to review the appeal application and decide whether to take it up.

  • Even though Wade has resigned, the case maintains an appearance of impropriety as long as Willis and her office are involved.

Quick Glance: Lead Prosecutor in Georgia Election Subversion Case Under Scrutiny Over Alleged Affair with DA
  • Nathan Wade was appointed lead prosecutor in the 2021 Georgia election interference case to prosecute former President Donald Trump and some of his closest allies.
