Mark Meadows, who tried to fake a wave of voter fraud for the cheater, is now being investigated for voter fraud himself.

Some of the right-wingers accused of plotting to kidnap Michigan governor Whitmer are arguing that the FBI entrapped them into a plot that the FBI planned.

Minnesota is considering a bill to prohibit large social media companies from using recommendation algorithms for users that are minors.
