VIDEOImagine spending two whole years of your life working hard on a book, another in a series of books proclaiming Donald Trump a criminal, and at almost the very moment your book is published the entire premise falls apart. In the case of Michael Isikoff and Dan Klaidman this happened when their book "Find Me The Votes" which hyped Fani Willis as a dynamic prosecutor chock full of integrity was discovered to be corrupt to the tune of enriching her unqualified boy toy Nathan Wade as an overpaid investigator who in turn repaid the almost $700,000 favor by taking Fani...

Among likely GOP Primary voters, Trump comes out on top in a crowded field with almost 43% of the vote, while DeSantis lands at just under 35%. Author and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy pulls...

Ron DeSantis may be missing his moment. A number of the Florida governor’s donors and allies are worried his recent stumbles suggest he may not be ready for a brutal fight against Donald Trump. Some feel DeSantis needs to accelerate his timeline to run for the GOP presidential nomination and begin directly confronting Trump if he's to have any chance of thwarting the former president’s momentum. Others believe DeSantis should sidestep Trump altogether and wait until 2028 to run. “They liked him — many of them might even support him,” the person who was at the event said of DeSantis....

Former president Trump ripped into Fox News on Tuesday over its coverage of the political ascendance of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R). “So interesting to watch FoxNews cover the small and unenthusiastic 139 person crowd in Staten Island for DeSantis, but stay as far away as possible from coverage of the thousands of people, many unable to get in, at the Club 47 event in West Palm Beach, Florida,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social on Tuesday. “I call FoxNews the RINO Network, and their DOWN BIG Ratings accurately reflect the name. If FAKE NEWS CNN was...

Senator Bernie Sanders, the "independent" from Vermont who's made a name for himself as an outspoken and hypocritical opponent of capitalism, is once again hitting the road to hawk his latest book — which is not free — at a series of in-person events — which are also not free. That is, Bernie Sanders is again relying on the systems he claims to oppose as he pushes his views. Perhaps he's looking to get some capital to buy another vacation home because his existing private properties aren't cutting it anymore? Sanders was pressed on CBS' "Face the Nation" Sunday about...

“Moving Florida Governor Ron DeSantis into position for 2024, with careful branding and management, is one large Republican Club operation done with forethought and intent.” ..... Snip..... Going all the way back to December 2021, when DeSantis handler Christina Pushaw set about the first steps of inviting conservative influencers into the DeSantis orbit in Florida, a meeting that took place on January 6, 2022, nothing from that moment to this was organic or unplanned. Moving Florida Governor Ron DeSantis into position for 2024 with careful branding and management, is one large Republican Club operation done with forethought and intent. Everything...

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis may be months away from publicly declaring his presidential intentions, but his potential rivals aren’t holding back. No fewer than a half dozen Republicans eyeing the White House have begun actively courting top political operatives in states like New Hampshire and Iowa, which traditionally host the opening presidential primary contests. At the same time, former President Donald Trump, the only announced candidate in the race, is launching regular attacks against DeSantis — and others — while locking down key staff and endorsements in early voting South Carolina. For now, DeSantis is...

Where do we go from here? The Clintons call it Utopia. We call it Hell. During an epic 2016 presidential election campaign whose results were to dump Hillary Clinton further back into the nether regions of Never Never Land, histrionic-geared Hillary coughed and went Whoopsie! falls the whole way through. Never before had a presidential candidate coughed their way all the way through a campaign.

Omarosa Manigault-Newman appeared irritable and fumed at Savannah Guthrie before abruptly cutting off an appearance on NBC’s “Today” show on Monday morning, claiming she had another interview to get to minutes after proclaiming, “I’ve got all the time you need.” Manigault-Newman was on the morning show to share a recording of a conversation she says she had with President Trump the day after she was fired by White House Chief of Staff John Kelly.

Instead of shouting out questions about Monica Lewinsky, Caplan – as he is wont to do – bellowed out queries about Jeffrey Epstein and “the Lolita Express” in light of theories regarding an underage sex-trafficking ring. As you can see in the video below, Caplan's actions were not well-received. Among the responses was “Sit down and shut up.” Caplan didn’t abide by that request, and was escorted from the auditorium for disrupting the event. In the lobby outside the room, he was told he was “acting like an insane human” in front of an audience that included children. “If I...
