Lara Trump told NBC News in a new interview that her father-in-law's 2020 election loss is "in the past," a stark departure from the election denialism that former President Donald Trump and his allies, including Lara Trump herself, have peddled for years. The new co-chair of the Republican National Committee, Lara Trump has previously promoted lies about the 2020 election and said that President Joe Biden was not legitimately elected. But when asked whether the RNC holds the position that the...
Last week, the Supreme Court let Texas’ extreme immigration law take effect. The dissenting Democratic appointees explained how that decision flew in the face of long-standing precedent that gives the federal government exclusive authority over entry and removal of people in the country illegally. As it turned out, Senate Bill 4 took effect only briefly, because the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals blocked it shortly after the Supreme Court condoned it. But the Supreme Court’s action was a...
The list of Donald Trump’s money-making schemes is not short. Sure, the gold sneakers and the NFT trading cards stand out as some of the more recent and cringeworthy examples, but we don’t have to look back too far into the recent past to find a series of related grifts. Remember Trump University? And Trump Steaks? And the Trump board game?

Donald Trump and his defense attorneys have gone to great lengths of late to delay the criminal cases surrounding the former president. The goal isn’t a secret: The Republican and his team, fearing possible convictions, want to push off trial dates until after Election Day 2024. The strategy might very well work in response to some of the pending indictments, but not all. This week, New York Supreme Court Justice Juan Merchan announced that jury section in Trump’s hush-money-to-a-porn-star case...
As a rule, it’s probably unwise to draw sweeping conclusions from a state legislative special election held more than seven months before national elections. That said, a whole lot of political insiders — in both parties — were keeping a close eye on Alabama’s 10th district this week, and it’d be a mistake to dismiss the results too quickly. NBC News reported overnight: This Huntsville-area seat was held by a Republican who resigned last fall after pleading guilty to voter fraud. It was against...

Repealing the Comstock Act — the Victorian-era anti-vice law that anti-abortion lobbyists aim to use to ban abortion nationwide, even in states where abortion rights are protected — has just turned from an urgent question to an absolute necessity. And it’s all thanks to the Supreme Court. Oral arguments at the court Tuesday morning suggested the court was likely to side with the White House in its appeal of lower court rulings restricting access to the abortion medication mifepristone. But...
