 U.S. Supreme Court rules to keep Trump on Colorado ballot The US Supreme Court on Monday ruled that former President, Donald Trump should appear on the ballot in Colorado. The Supreme Court ruled 9-0 in favour of Trump. According to the CNN, it is a decision with nationwide implications that followed months of debate over whether the front-runner for the GOP presidential nomination violated the 14th Amendment’s “insurrectionist clause” because of his role in the January 6, 2021, riot. The court was unanimous on the idea Trump could not be unilaterally removed from the ballot, but justices were divided on how broadly the decision would sweep. A 5-4 majority said no state could dump a federal candidate off any ballot, but four justices asserted that the court should have limited its opinion. Colorado had barred Trump from its Republican primary, arguing he incited the 2021 Capitol riot but the court ruled that only Congress, rather than the states, had that power. Court rules Trump ...

 A truly shocking and breaking story out of Louisiana! Convicted sex offender stabbed to death by woman he attempted to sexually assault.  40-year-old Nicholas Tranchant was found on Sunday, unresponsive, with a visible stab wound.

USA BLACKLISTS ZIMBABWE’S MNANGAGWA FOR CORRUPTION  The United States on Monday imposed sanctions on Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa and other senior leaders, denouncing what it said was a campaign of rights abuses and corruption.
