Former President Donald Trump’s team of tag-along Republican senators and representatives traveling to New York City to rage against the criminal hush money trial and help him violate the gag order is not going to do him any real favors, argued former Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) on MSNBC Friday evening. In fact, he told anchor Katie Phang,…
During a rally in Wildwood, New Jersey on May 11, former President Donald Trump praised fictional serial-killing cannibal Hannibal Lecter and confused President Jimmy Carter for tennis great Jimmy Connors.

Joe Biden and Donald Trump are set to face off in June for the first 2024 presidential debate, but the former president said he doesn’t mind going against one other opponent on stage, which experts warn could be a spoiler for Biden: independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Some critics have warned that Kennedy, an…
Nearly one-third of Donald Trump‘s supporters believe Taylor Swift will vote for the former president in November, according to a new poll. Speculation about who Swift will support in the presidential election has grown as she has remained quiet about the race, though the Fortnight singer has historically supported President Joe Biden and progressive social causes such as LGBTQ+ rights. A new…
The altercation everyone’s been waiting for finally happened when Trump’s attorney cast doubt on whether Cohen actually spoke with the ex-president on a fateful night in 2016. Donald Trump calls them “Perry Mason moments.” The 77-year-old likes to reference the TV series from his childhood and the dramatic legal showdowns in real life which so far…
The phallic balloons delivered an unexpected message that was revealed by the artist behind them. This was one political gathering for Donald Trump whose numbers had to be inflated. Pink balloons shaped like penises flew into the Manhattan sky outside of the former president’s hush money trial Thursday to protest those prosecuting him and other perceived enemies, the artist…
A photo supposedly showing former U.S. President Donald Trump with his daughter Ivanka as a child, posing on a bed, has circulated online for years. Critics of the former president have shared it as alleged evidence of him supposedly acting inappropriate toward her. But whether the photo depicted an authentic moment between the father and…
Donald Trump’s promise to oil bosses at a Mar-a-Lago meeting last month, in which he reportedly spoke bluntly of a “deal” with executives that would see him scrap troublesome environmental regulations “on day one” if they raised $1 billion to get him back in the White House, not only shocked the executives involved, but The New Abnormal’s Andy Levy and Danielle…
Jurors have heard a secret recording of Donald Trump allegedly talking about making hush-money payments to Playboy model Karen McDougal. On Monday, Trump’s former attorney Michael Cohen told the jury that he made the recording without the ex-president’s knowledge. Prosecutors say the recording shows that Trump was fully aware he would have to pay $150,000 to silence McDougal before the 2016…
Kristi Noem, Katie Britt, Kari Lake, and Nikki Haley were all once seen as top contenders in Trump’s veepstakes. Just a few months later, they all seem to have blown their shot. A few short months ago, the conventional wisdom emanating from Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign seemed to be that the former president was looking for…
President Biden is courting Black voters this weekend in a flurry of high-profile events, in a bid to reclaim support among a once-reliable voting bloc now showing a lack of enthusiasm. The marquee event is delivering the commencement address at Morehouse College, the prestigious, all-male historically Black college and the alma mater of Dr. Martin…
Just when you thought President Joe Biden’s America couldn’t get any worse, this happens: Chuck E. Cheese locations across the country are phasing out their signature animatronic band. Real American patriots have, for years, taken their kids to Chuck E. Cheese for pizza, games, a chance to win prizes and the opportunity to witness and be forever…
Tuesday’s primaries weren’t quite the wins Donald Trump wishes they were. Nikki Haley may have dropped out of the presidential race back in March, but she’s still getting votes from Republicans who don’t want another Trump presidency. But that doesn’t mean it’s a win for President Joe Biden. Haley received 20% of the vote in Maryland’s Republican…
We still don’t know if former President Donald Trump will tell the jury his side of the sordid hush-money scheme still unfolding in his New York criminal court case. But now we know the odds. The oddsmakers at BetOnline, who have been setting lines on who will or won’t show up to support Trump in court, took a…
It was just after noon when giant, agitprop penises began flying past the sooty limestone facade of the criminal court in Manhattan. It was just one of the political pranks seen outside the hush-money trial Thursday — and it was a heck-of-a-lot more interesting than the testimony droning on inside. Up on the 15th floor,…
Donald Trump whines constantly about not being able to campaign around the country because he’s stuck in a New York courtroom facing trial on felony charges. Since court is only convened three or four days a week and Trump has his own plane, he could certainly be out on the campaign trail every week if…
Because Donald Trump himself wasn’t indicted, there was a surprisingly muted response to the announcement, late on Wednesday, that Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes had indicted a school bus full of Republican activists and operatives on felony charges related to Trump’s efforts to steal the 2020 election. There’s a real “Trump himself or it doesn’t count” bar…
President Joe Biden and Donald Trump have agreed to participate in two general election debates: One in June and one in September After months of questions about whether general election debates would happen, President Joe Biden and Republican nominee Donald Trump have agreed to participate in two of them: one in June and one in September. But…
If you or I decided to go wild with our credit cards and didn’t pay off those balances regularly, we would see what we owe expand rapidly as high interest rates make the debt increasingly hard to manage. There’s a price to pay for unwise financial decisions. Most of us understand the economic consequences of…
In 2020, the top enlisted leader of the Air Force went public with his fear of waking up to the news that a Black airman had been killed by a white police officer. Then four years later, a Florida deputy shot and killed Senior Airman Roger Fortson in his apartment. “I doubt if that police officer knew or cared…
