What we know about Trump’s latest criminal indictment.
Former President Donald Trump is facing his fourth criminal indictment — this time for attempting to overturn election results in Georgia.
A Fulton County court brought 13 counts against Trump and his allies for aiming to overturn the 2020 election results in Georgia.
At the heart of the indictment is the The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, which targets “criminal enterprises.”

Jazz at 100 - Episode 99 out of 100 - Highlights of the 2010’s
This is the last of a series of five programs featuring jazz since 1990, presented as a single selection for each year to reflect trends, career highlights and new artists, at least as the narrative appears from the temporally-challenged context of the last 25 years.
The idea to attempt such an abbreviated one-track –per-year survey comes from a terrific essay from critic Gary Giddins, “Postwar Jazz: An Arbitrary Roadmap (1945 – 2001).” As we approach the present our perspective gets more-and-more limited. In this hour, our 99th of 100, jazz since 2010.
