Nathan Wade, the Georgia lawyer tapped to prosecute former President Donald Trump by his onetime lover, Fulton County prosecutor Fani Willis, had extensive communications with the Biden-Harris White House, new records show. Wade billed the Fulton County office for hours of meetings with the White House, the congressional January 6 committee, and other D.C. officials, according to records obtained by the House Judiciary Committee and released Monday. The committee released a transcript of an interview with Wade, which was compelled by subpoena, in which he said that Willis was preparing to prosecute Trump even before she took office, and that...

SUNNY HOSTIN: Would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?KAMALA HARRIS: There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of — and I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.Photo via Flickr by Kevin Krejci – Our National Debt – CC BY 2.0.On Friday, the Treasury Department released a report showing the kind of impact Harris is talking about.

In presidential politics, you have to meet potential voters where they are. So every four years, churches, college campuses and even barbershops become the mainstays of the presidential campaign circuit. But, this year, the contenders have added the McDonald’s fry station. On Sunday, Donald Trump walked into a Bucks County, Pa., McDonald’s and told the store owner that he was looking for a job, explaining that “I’ve always wanted to work at McDonald’s.” The public’s image of the typical McDonald’s employee has overlapped with the elusive voter both parties are hoping to secure in the last days of the race....

On Sunday, former President Donald Trump made good on his promise to work at a McDonald’s to see what it was really like. Trump worked the fryer and drive-thru at a McDonald’s in Bucks County, a key swing area in Pennsylvania, and drew massive crowds for it. The stunt was supposed to troll Kamala Harris over her dubious claim of working at the fast-food chain in the 1980s, but the move actually turned out to be a masterstroke. The event appeared to genuinely humble Trump. When a customer asked Trump if he appreciated McDonald’s more from the experience, Trump said...

Lawmakers’ unabated desire to spend money we don’t have jeopardizes our national security — and our future.The cliché holds that a picture is worth a thousand words. But a recent chart from the Congressional Budget Office is worth nearly 2,000,000,000,000 (that’s two trillion) words. It illustrates the size of the budget deficits Washington continues to run, year in, year out.The downward trend of the chart, which shows budget deficits for 2023 and the fiscal year that ended on September 30, echoes the downward trend of our nation’s fiscal trajectory, as lawmakers’ unabated desire to spend money we don’t have jeopardizes...

In a biography set to release just before the election, Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell openly sides with Biden-Harris special counsel Jack Smith and expresses his hope that former President Donald J. Trump will “pay a price” for his alleged role in January 6. McConnell’s statements to journalist Michael Tackett for The Price of Power reflect the 82-year-old’s ongoing antipathy to Trump, despite their shared party affiliation. McConnell’s endorsement of the lawfare campaign against the America First leader reveals just how deep his bitterness runs. “If he hasn’t committed indictable offenses, I don’t know what one is,” McConnell complains. He...

Vice President Kamala Harris is shamelessly trying to run away from her 'Border Czar' responsibilities, often with the assistance of a compliant 'news' media, but that wasn't the only major job with which she's been tasked in the Biden-Harris administration. The president also tapped her to help lead and oversee a number of expensive 'green' and infrastructure initiatives. On a costly plan to install new electric vehicle chargers (Harris is suddenly pretending she has nothing to do with EV mandates she has supported and co-sponsored), Politico described its 'progress' in late 2023: "Congress at the urging of the Biden administration...

538 uses polling, economic and demographic data to explore likely election outcomes. Trump wins 53 times out of 100 in our simulations of the 2024 presidential election. Harris wins 47 times out of 100. There is a less than 1-in-100 chance of no Electoral College winner.

New polling shows Kamala Harris leads Donald Trump with women over the age of 50 by more than any presidential candidate since 2016. The survey shows that 54% of women in that demographic plan to vote for the vice president, over just 42% for Trump. It's a huge improvement from Joe Biden, who only led Trump by three points with women over 50 in January. The numbers are also better than Hillary Clinton's numbers in 2016, who polled 48%-40% over Trump. AARP, who conducted the survey, believes that women over 50 can potentially sway the election. 'Our polling over the...

Generation Z is poised to flex its growing political muscle in the 2024 presidential election, and in my surveys and focus groups with these voters, I’m seeing the strong potential for a turning point in American political alignment. Unlike other recent Republican presidential nominees, Donald Trump is making young men a central focus of his campaign. If effective, his effort could peel enough away from the Democratic Party to transform the country’s electoral math for years to come. Recent data from the Harvard Youth Poll, a national survey I oversee for the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics, reveals an...

Mail-in ballots are being requested, by the thousands, in locations which are undeliverable – in Wisconsin. If nobody is there, who the hell is requesting that ballot?

Four days after Election Day is the over/under for when Fox News will likely declare a presidential election winner, Arnon Mishkin, the head of the network’s decision desk, said. Mishkin’s prediction indicates the race will be too close to call for several days after the election, a predicament that mirrors the 2020 election. “The over/under is Saturday,” Mishkin told Politico. “Which was when the call was made last time.”

McDonald’s said it couldn’t necessarily confirm Vice President Kamala Harris ever took a job at one of its burger joints — but added it was “proud to hear” she had “fond memories” of working there as a teen. The fast-food giant on Sunday extended an invite to Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, to visit one of its restaurants “in order to share how McDonald’s provides meaningful pathways to economic opportunity and feeds and fosters local communities.” The invite came the same day former President Donald Trump manned the french fry cooker at one of the Golden...

After obtaining American citizenship in 1994, the Muslim immigrant quickly began climbing the political ladder, working for Willie Brown, becoming a ‘human rights’ commissioner, and getting to know everyone in Democratic politics. Hijazi’s social media feed is decorated with photos of her posing with Bill Clinton, Hillary, Pelosi, the Obamas, and above all else, Kamala. “I’ve raised over $12 million for the Democratic Party,” Hijazi boasted at the anti-Israel panel. After the Hamas massacres of Oct 7, Hijazi relaunched her activism, claiming shortly afterward that 40 members of her family had been killed by Israeli bombing campaigns against Hamas. At...

Former Rep. Liz Cheney is facing renewed backlash after a handwriting expert’s analysis suggested potential misconduct during the January 6 Committee investigation. The scandal centers around Cassidy Hutchinson, a former White House aide who testified that she wrote a key note on January 6, 2021—evidence that Cheney prominently showcased during the committee’s hearings. However, a handwriting expert has now confirmed that former Trump White House lawyer Eric Herschmann, not Hutchinson, authored the note. Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA), who chairs the House Administration oversight subcommittee, hired a handwriting expert to analyze the note. Loudermilk has since revealed that the expert concluded...

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate, said Donald Trump is "spiraling down" after being asked on ABC's "The View" about the former president's recent lewd comments. "It's very clear that, as you said, Donald Trump is spiraling down, unhinged," Walz said. "What worries me about these comments, some of these are just so strange that they're hard to imagine, are the dangerous ones in the middle of that -- the 'enemy from within' and some of that."
