DA Willis fights to reinstate charges for Trump | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: Fulton County DA Fani Willis is seeking to have six charges against former President Donald Trump and five others reinstated. Judge Scott McAfee had previously ruled that the solicitation charges in the 2020 election interference case were too vague, hindering the defendants’ ability to defend themselves. Willis argues that the charges clarify the defendants’ actions and would enable an intelligent defense. Prosecutors contend that Trump and others unlawfully pressured Georgia officials to hold a special legislative session for appointing pro-Trump electors. There is currently no timeline for the appeals court’s ruling on this matter.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis has filed an appeal in a judges decision to toss several charges against former President Donald Trump and his co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case.

Man missing in Lake Lanier after jumping in to swim
SUMMARY: Ramon Diaz Soria went missing in Lake Lanier after jumping from a boat during a birthday party around 7 p.m. despite wearing a life vest, as he couldn’t swim. Rescue crews, including Forsyth County Sheriff’s and Georgia DNR teams, searched through the night and resumed efforts today, but rough conditions halted sonar use. Ramon’s family, devastated, describes him as their light and father figure who cared for them and the community. They found a life vest floating but no sign of Ramon. The family pleads for prayers and community help in continuing the search if he isn’t found by tonight.
The family says he was boating with friends when he jumped in to swim. Family members told FOX 5 the man was wearing a lifejacket.

Best summer jobs for teens | FOX 5 News
SUMMARY: Teens across the U.S. are searching for summer jobs, but employers like Morey’s Piers in Wildwood, New Jersey, are finding it increasingly difficult to hire enough local teens. The amusement park hires over 1,500 part-time workers each summer, often relying on international students with J-1 visas due to a shrinking domestic workforce. Summer job participation among teens is trending downward, despite decent pay in some sectors like construction. Still, resort jobs like those at Morey’s offer a fun and engaging environment. The challenge remains: while summer jobs exist, fewer teens seem interested in filling them.
Now that school is out, teenagers will be looking to make a little extra money. Here’s a look at some of the best jobs out there.
