Former US president Donald Trump's legal team has moved for his classified documents trial to be pushed forward past the 2024 US presidential election. Each delay works in the 2024 presidential candidate's favour, as any further move against him becomes more political. If elected as US President in 2024, Mr Trump could potentially pardon himself from any federal charges.

The Staten Island St. Patrick's Day parade, traditionally held on the first Sunday of March, seems to be losing stature each year while calls for the event to be inclusive are growing stronger, judging by the 2023 edition of the parade which is believed to be the only one in New York, or at least the greater New York area, that bans gay groups from participating with their own banners. Once again, the parade organizers, led by long-time leader Larry Cummings, barred the Pride Center of Staten Island and the Gay Officers Action League from marching.
