'It was inspiring to join friends and meet voters with the Harris-campaign in Pennsylvania this weekend, she told People. 'I’m hopeful they'll move our country forward and protect women’s rights,' added Bush, 42. It was a low key gesture, but nevertheless made her the latest person identified with the...

BREAKING: Former CNN host Don Lemon says sources have told him George Bush could be speaking at the DNC.

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) says former President Trump should stop questioning the size of Vice President Harris’s crowds at her campaign rallies and instead focus on her as a candidate. “You’ve got to make this race not on personalities,” McCarthy said Monday in an interview on Fox News. “Stop questioning the size of her crowds and start questioning her position, when it comes to: What did she do as [California] attorney general on crime? … What did she do when she was supposed to take care of the border as a czar?” The former Speaker said Trump should also...

Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that some of her Republican colleagues have told her that if Vice President Kamala Harris can defeat Donald Trump, they can get “back to our debate on the issues.” Pelosi said, “Let’s just talk about the glory of Kamala and Tim, the promise that they have put out there, the enthusiasm.” Mitchell said, “You talk about John McCain and talking to him and he gave you a heads-up he was going to vote, the key vote to save The Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, so there used...

"We have no evidence..." Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's state Senate impeachment trial is underway in the heart of Texas, and the prosecution's case appears to be crumbling before our eyes. While media outlets have long portrayed Paxton as a controversial figure, the trial's proceedings reveal a different story – one of weak evidence and a politically motivated agenda. The central accusation against Paxton revolves around allegations that he abused his office to benefit a friend and donor, Nate Paul, an Austin real estate investor. However, a closer look at the prosecution's case reveals a glaring lack of concrete evidence...

@bwaltens BOMBSHELL in Ken Paxton Impeachment Trial: A “whistleblower” says he reported Paxton to the FBI with NO EVIDENCE!

As you’re probably aware, Republican RINOs in the Texas House have impeached Ken Paxton, arguably the most popular and effective Attorney General in the nation. Paxton was laser focused on challenging the Biden administration at every turn — and not through empty rhetoric or heated tweets — but through old-fashioned, traditional litigation. Naturally, the GOP establishment united to take him down. The silver lining is that, so far, Paxton has secured the backing of eight out of the ten Texas Senators he’ll need to overcome this unjust political witch hunt. ... There’s an impeachment going on in the Texas legislature...

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Texas state Sen. Angela Paxton said Monday she will “carry out my duties” ahead of the historic impeachment trial of her husband, Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton, but did not outright say whether or not she will recuse herself on a vote to remove him from office.

VIDEO When you conduct an impeachment, it is a good idea to have EVIDENCE to back it up. Unfortunately the drunken Speaker of the Texas House rammed through an impeachment of state Attorney General Ken Paxton without any regard as to evidence. Fortunately, the Texas Senate was made aware by Paxton's defense team, notably the INCREDIBLE Tony Buzbee, that there was NO EVIDENCE. In this video we see some liberal whining over the acquittal of Ken Paxton on all EVIDENCE-FREE articles of impeachment. Of note is the reaction of the Harold Stassen of the Pecos, that perennial parasitic candidate Beto...
