Cannon ultimately threw out the case earlier this year following a recent Supreme Court decision that held presidents have immunity for official acts taken while in office.

In a new indictment filed on Tuesday, Routh was charged with attempted assassination of a major presidential candidate—a charge that comes with a maximum term of life in prison and fines up to $250,000.

The Real-Life Bonnie and Clyde Whose Love Ended in Disaster
NetflixLove can make people do reckless and stupid things, as it did to Vicky White, an Alabama assistant director of corrections at Lauderdale County Detention Center who, in 2022, broke a violent inmate out of jail and fled with him in the hopes of achieving a happily-ever-after together. Jailbreak: Love on the Run is an up-close-and-personal recap of Vicky’s saga, enhanced by copious security camera footage that depicts her carrying out this daring scheme, and audio recordings of her phone calls with her incarcerated beau. Netflix’s latest true-crime documentary (Sept. 25) flails in trying to cast itself as a heartening story about seizing happiness, but as a snapshot of the foolhardy acts that amour can drive sane individuals to commit, it plays as an eye-opening cautionary tale.In 2020, Casey White (no relation) was transferred to the Lauderdale County Detention Center, a temporary holding facility that’s described as a “very intimidating environment” where parking-ticket violators and capital murder suspects coexist side by side. Casey was in the process of serving 75 years behind bars for attempted murder and other felonies. Moreover, he was facing an additional capital murder charge that was still under investigation and to which he had confessed. While awaiting trial for that latest slaying, he had been moved to Lauderdale, and it was there that he met Vicky.Read more at The Daily Beast.

Opinion: This Ex-Firefighter Defied Trump. It May Cost Him the Presidency
Reuters/Nebraska State LegislatureNebraska State Sen. Michael McDonnell was a firefighter for 24 years and proved his mettle by striding into burning buildings long before he ran for office.Even so, political courage is so rare these days that it came as a surprise to many people when 58-year-old McDonnell resisted pressure by Republicans—including Vice Presidential candidate JD Vance—to support a last minute change in how his state allocates its five electoral votes that would potentially give Donald Trump a decisive edge in the upcoming election.The measure would have all but assured Trump one more electoral vote in a contest close enough that it could determine who goes to the White House. And the vote on the bill itself promised to be so close that it was doomed when McDonnell announced his decision on Monday.Read more at The Daily Beast.
