Emergency personnel have responded after a package with suspicious white powder was delivered to the mail room for the New York City building housing the Manhattan District Attorney's office, according to police. A law enforcement source confirmed there was a note saying "Alvin – I’ll kill you" in the envelope. District Attorney Alvin Bragg is currently weighing whether to proceed with an indictment against former President Donald Trump for alleged hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels in 2016. The envelope delivered by the U.S. Postal Service Friday has been "deemed non-hazardous" at the scene, the mail room...

Former President Donald Trump has warned about the potential of "death and destruction" should he be charged as part of the Stormy Daniels hush money investigation. In a post on Truth Social, Trump denied any wrongdoing while hitting out at Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg amid strong indications that a potential historic arrest is forthcoming. Last weekend, Trump called on his supporters to protest his apparently upcoming arrest, which he claimed was due to take place on Tuesday, March 21. The arrest never occurred, but Democrats accused the former president of attempting to rile up his supporters to carry out...

“District Attorney Bragg is a danger to our Country, and should be removed immediately, along with Radical Lunatic Bombthrower Jack Smith, who is harassing and intimidating innocent people at levels not seen before, ‘Get Trump’ Letitia James, the worst Attorney General in the United States, and Atlanta D.A. Fani Willis, who is trying to make PERFECT phone calls into a plot to destroy America, but reigns over the most violent Crime Scene in America, and does nothing about it!” Trump wrote in a post on his social media site. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) is set to meet Monday...

Donald Trump emailed voters on Monday asking them to sign a petition protesting his possible arrest. His team says they're compiling "millions and millions" of signatures decrying the "threats." He also asked for donations to his campaign, with suggested amounts ranging from $24 to $3,300.

First presidential race here. Can you support any Republican/ MAGA for President here? Can you attack any opponesnt you dont like? Can you support someone like Hogan/ moderate? just wondering out loud.

DeSantis slammed Bragg for creating a 'manufactured circus' in his first comments since rumors sparked that Trump will be indicted as early as Tuesday and soon after called on his supporters to 'protest' any arrest. 'Ron DeSanctimonious will probably find out about FALSE ACCUSATIONS & FAKE STORIES sometime in the future, as he gets older, wiser, and better known, when he's unfairly and illegally attacked by a woman, even classmates that are 'underage' (or possibly a man!),' Trump wrote. 'I'm sure he will want to fight these misfits just like I do!' the former president added in the post to...

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) testified under oath and admitted how farfetched former President Donald Trump's voter fraud claims really were. Sen.

That’s nothing compared to what the lieutenant governor has been doing. As Tennessee Republicans were busy also banning gender-affirming care for minors, some choice Instagram comments from Lieutenant Governor Randy McNally became public. McNally, 79, has supported the state GOP’s anti-trans efforts and once sponsored legislation banning same-sex marriage. He also appears not to understand that Instagram comments can be seen by everyone, because he has been liking the (mostly) nudes of a 20-year-old user named Franklyn McClur from his official account. On his verified Instagram page, McNally has been liberally using the heart and fire emojis and writing about...

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) threatened to abolish a slew of federal agencies such as the FBI and the Justice Department, accusing top officials of using their government offices for political aims. In a speech addressing supporters at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Friday, Gaetz defended his efforts to stall Rep. Kevin McCarthy’s (R-CA) speakership vote in January until House Republicans could negotiate some rules changes from the party leader. One such concession was the creation of a committee examining the “Weaponization of the Federal Government,” which was a key demand of several of McCarthy’s holdouts. “It seems like every...

The members of the Proud Boys on trial for seditious conspiracy for their actions before and leading up to the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol reportedly plan on calling former President Donald Trump to testify. Norm Pattis, attorney for Proud Boys member Joe Biggs, is said to have told Politico, "Donald Trump called on patriots to stop the steal. We’re calling on Donald Trump to take the stand." "We’re going to ask the government for assistance in serving Mr. Trump," Pattis added. skip Throughout the trial, defense attorneys have suggested Trump was responsible for encouraging their clients and...

Fox News lies to its viewers. Its most prominent personalities, among the most influential in the industry, tell their viewers things they know not to be true. This is not accusation, allegation, or supposition. Today, we know it to be fact. Early in the Trump era, news organizations were torn over whether to refer to Donald Trump’s false statements as lies, because it is difficult to know an individual’s state of mind, to know what they know. In the throes of insecurity, ideological conviction, or carelessness, people can make statements that are false without malicious intent. The argument over what...

A proposed draft of a physical education form in Florida could require all high school student athletes to disclose information regarding their menstrual history — a move that’s already drawing pushback from opponents who say the measure would harm students. The draft — published last month by the Florida High School Athletic Association, a group that oversees interscholastic athletic programs across the state — proposes making currently optional questions regarding a student’s menstrual cycle mandatory, as reported by the Palm Beach Post. The form, if approved, would ask students if they’ve had a menstrual cycle, and if so, at what...
