(CNN) — Un juez federal rechazó por segunda vez este lunes la solicitud del expresidente Donald Trump para retrasar el juicio que enfrenta por agresión y difamación en Nueva York, el cual se prevé que comience la próxima semana.Los abogados de Trump solicitaron aplazarlo bajo el argumento de que se necesita un período de “calma” que permita conseguir un jurado justo e imparcial, luego de la atención de los medios de comunicación sobre la histórica acusación contra el exmandatario por cargos de falsificación de registros empresariales para encubrir un pago de dinero para silenciar una relación extramatrimonial anterior, algo que él niega.La selección del jurado comenzará el próximo martes en la demanda en la que E. Jean Carroll afirma que Trump la violó en un vestidor de Nueva York a mediados de la década de 1990 y luego la difamó años después cuando él negó los hechos y dijo que ella no era su “tipo”, sugiriendo que había inventado la historia para prom...

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 15:40:00 GMT

DENVER (KDVR) - After a Kansas City man was charged with shooting a teen who showed up at the wrong house while trying to pick up his sibling, a prosecutor said the shooting was not in self-defense and that Missouri's "stand your ground" law does not allow it.Investigators said 84-year-old Andrew Lester shot 16-year-old Ralph Yarl in the head and arm last week as he knocked on his front door. Lester claimed he thought the teen was trying to break in.

The EU greenwashed fossil gas. Today, we are suing.

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 15:40:00 GMT

Last July, EU policymakers decided to greenwash fossil gas. Today, the WWF European Policy Office, Client Earth, BUND and Transport & Environment are taking them to the European Court of Justice.We are doing it to reassert a basic truth: all fossil fuels are dangerous for the planet. Only last summer, European cities baked under fierce heatwaves, rivers across our continent ran dry, and whole swathes of France, Spain, and Portugal were burned by unprecedented wildfires. In the midst of this devastation, the EU approved a new chapter of its supposed green investment guidebook — the EU Taxonomy — which stated that fossil gas-fired electricity is ‘green’. In fact, fossil gas is a fossil fuel that can cause plumes of methane that harm the climate just as badly as coal.However, under the guise of climate action, the gas Taxonomy could divert tens of billions of euros from green projects into the very fossil fuels which are causing those heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires. This is whi...
