“Nobody should be shocked that the Republican governor’s supporting the Republican president,” said Governor Chris Sununu, who has long been at odds with Trump.
Donald Trump started Monday by staking his official incoherent position on abortion in a too-many-minutes-long speech packed with lies. Like ending Roe v. Wade was something that “all legal scholars—both sides—wanted, and, in fact, demanded.” And his assertion that Democrats “are the radical ones on this position because they support abortion up to and even beyond the ninth month.” CNN’s Jim Acosta quickly fact-checked both of those claims. “Democrats do not believe in execution after birth,”...
In the recent past, several news channels in India have received blocking orders from YouTube on the Indian govt's request. MediaNama spoke to representatives of those channels as well as legal experts to uncover the forces at play behind this growing trend.
On Monday, I wrote that we should “expect this week to include rejections of desperate defense attempts to further delay” Donald Trump’s hush money trial. With the former president already striking out three separate times at the state appeals court this week, he has exceeded my modest prediction — and it’s only Thursday. The serial rejections show that the New York state courts — so far — are not entertaining the presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s delay gambits. Jury selection in the first...
Donald Trump revealed exactly how terrified his campaign is of the Republican effort to end abortion nationwide when he supposedly backed the right of states to regulate abortion early Monday morning. “The states will determine by vote or legislation or perhaps both," Trump said in a rambling nearly 5-minute video, "whatever they decide must be the law of the land—in this case, the law of the state.” President Joe Biden immediately took the opportunity to slam Trump, saying he "just endorsed...
WASHINGTON — Major political donors will gather Saturday in Donald Trump's fiefdom of Palm Beach for a fundraising event that his campaign hopes will mark a new phase in a swaggering, high-stakes race for big money with Joe Biden. While spending huge sums of money on campaigning may not be something to brag about in some countries, it's often a source of pride for U.S. political candidates. And this year, raising big bucks is as important as ever, with the November 5 presidential election...
Former President Donald Trump's latest filing in the presidential immunity case that will be heard before the Supreme Court next week has shocked one legal expert for its "audacious" claims. Trump's attorneys Monday filed a 33-page response to special counsel Jack Smith's argument that the former president is not protected from prosecution by blanket immunity and therefore can be tried on election interference charges in Washington D.C. federal court. In this new filing, Trump's attorneys build...
ABC News host George Stephanopoulos clashed with GOP New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu over his support for Donald Trump on Sunday in a heated debate over the Republican governor's past condemnation of the former president. Sununu, who endorsed Haley in the GOP primary until she dropped out, said in March he would endorse Trump, the presumptive GOP nominee, in the presidential election. Stephanopoulos asked if his support for Trump would continue if he's convicted in the hush money case. "This...
Known as 'Squeeze.Benz' on social media, he calls out the NYPD for their lack of driving skills on the highway and for having helicopters that can't keep up with him
There must be some nostalgia out there among those who support former President Donald Trump and remember when he appeared in public for the first time wearing his signature “Make America Great Again” red hat some nine years ago.
President Biden has nearly erased Donald J. Trump’s early polling advantage, amid signs that the Democratic base has begun to coalesce behind the president despite lingering doubts about the direction of the country, the economy and his age, according to a new survey by The New York Times and Siena College. Mr. Biden and Mr. Trump are now virtually tied, with Mr. Trump holding a 46 percent to 45 percent edge. That is an improvement for Mr. Biden from late February, when Mr. Trump had a sturdier...
Former President Donald Trump already understands the legal threat posed by the criminal hush money trial set to begin in Manhattan next week, said former January 6 investigator Temidayo Aganga-Williams on CNN Friday evening.The trial centers on the allegation that the former president effectively interfered in the 2016 election by using a secret hush payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels to conceal their former affair from voters. Trump's lawyers are reportedly resigned to the fact that...
