The reactions from Republicans in Congress to Donald Trump’s documents indictment have ranged from the rare acknowledgments that he may have committed a crime to more extreme statements like comparing the U.S. to a dictatorship under Joe Biden. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
Of the 271 Republicans in the House and Senate, more than half have issued statements or commented on social media about the indictment.

A small number have made statements about the indictment that did not immediately dismiss the investigation. nytimes.com/interactive/20… A graphic shows a grid with...
At least 100 Republicans, from across the party’s ideological spectrum, have questioned the circumstances around the indictment, the timing of its release or a perceived unfairness in how the law has been applied. nytimes.com/interactive/20… A graphic shows a grid with...

America’s fragmented electric grid, which was largely built to accommodate coal and gas plants, is becoming a major obstacle to efforts to fight climate change. nyti.ms/3p7DWJg
We often talk about the grid like a single, cohesive machine. But, in reality, there are three grids in the U.S — one in the West, one in the East and one in Texas — that only connect at a few points and share little power between them. nyti.ms/3p7DWJg A map with the headline: “T...
Those grids are further divided into a patchwork of operators with competing interests — a fractured system that makes it hard to build the long-distance power lines needed to transport wind and solar nationwide. nyti.ms/3p7DWJg A map with the headline: “A...

The relentless noisiness of daily life is more than annoying — it can have lasting effects on the body. Noise is an under-recognized health threat that increases the risk of hypertension, stroke and heart attacks. nyti.ms/3MYGtO1
The New York Times measured noise exposure in rural Mississippi, New York City, and suburban California and New Jersey, and consulted more than 30 scientists to examine how noise could take years off your life. nyti.ms/3MYGtO1
When unpleasant noise enters your body through your ears, it is relayed to the stress detection center in your brain, which triggers a cascade of reactions. Your nervous, endocrine and cardiovascular systems are among the areas negatively affected. nyti.ms/3MYGtO1

Trillions of dollars in family wealth are set to be passed down in the next few years — and the transfer will largely reinforce U.S. inequality. nyti.ms/3W312gr
Total family wealth in the U.S. has tripled since 1989, reaching $140 trillion in 2022.

Of the $84 trillion projected to be passed down from older Americans to millennial and Gen X heirs through 2045, $16 trillion will be transferred in the next decade. nyti.ms/3W312gr A chart that shows a breakd...
The top 10% of households will be giving and receiving a majority of the wealth. The top 1% — with about as much wealth as the bottom 90%, — will dictate the broadest share of the money flow. The bottom 50% will account for 8% of transfers. nyti.ms/3W312gr A chart that shows wealth b...

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s longtime incumbent leader, will head to a presidential election runoff for the first time in his career after falling short of the 50% needed to win in national elections on Sunday. nyti.ms/3M0eQ6G A bar chart that shows the ...
Erdogan still had the most votes, including more than the opposition leader Kemal Kilicdaroglu, as of Monday. But the provinces that contain Istanbul and Ankara, Turkey’s two largest cities, voted for Kilicdaroglu after both voted for Erdogan in 2018. nyti.ms/3M0eQ6G A map shows election result...
Erdogan appears to have the edge as he heads into the runoff. Even so, almost every part of the country shifted against him compared with the presidential election in 2018, according to preliminary results from a state news organization. nyti.ms/3M0eQ6G A map shows whether Mr. Erd...

A group of conservative operatives used robocalls to raise millions of dollars using pro-police and pro-veteran messages. But a New York Times analysis shows that nearly all the money went to pay the callers and themselves. nyti.ms/42SaxkL
Since 2014, a group of nonprofits has pulled in $89 million from donors who were pitched on building political support for police officers, veterans and firefighters. But just 1% of the money was used to that end according to our findings. nyti.ms/3Ibq2w9 Image
About 90% of the money the groups raised was simply sent back to their fund-raising contractors, to feed a self-consuming loop where donations were spent to find more donors. The contractors had no significant operations other than fund-raising. nyti.ms/3Ibq2w9 Image
