Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie criticized President Donald Trump’s legal team Sunday morning, calling its continued legal challenges and allegations of widespread electoral fraud “a national embarrassment.” On ABC’s “This Week,” Christie repeatedly chastised Trump’s lawyers for alleging fraud in interviews and press conferences despite their lawsuits pleading otherwise, and called for their legal challenges to end. “The legal team has been a national embarrassment… They allege fraud outside the courtroom, but when they go inside the courtroom, they don’t plead fraud and they don’t argue fraud,” Christie said. He also called out Trump lawyer Sidney Powell, criticizing her...

President Donald Trump’s confidant former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said Sunday that the president should end his legal fights challenging the results of the election and concede to president-elect Joe Biden. “Listen, I’ve been a supporter of the president, I voted for him twice but elections have consequences and we cannot continue to act as if something happened here that didn’t happen,” Christie explained on “This Week with George Stephanopoulos.”

Longtime GOP adviser Karl Rove will oversee Senate Republicans’ fundraising effort as they fight to keep their majority with the two runoff elections in Georgia, according to a report. The former adviser to President George W. Bush will serve as national finance chairman of the Georgia Battleground Fund, a joint fundraising effort organized by the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Politico reported Monday. Rove, who now serves as a Fox News commentator, will be joined by an array of high-profile GOP names, including former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former Vice President Dan Quayle and former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley.

Many knew that we would not have immediate election results to determine who the next president of the United States would be. Now, four days later, we have just received a final determination, however, the amount of illegal activity surrounding the votes and the counting of the ballots is astronomical. Many GOP leaders have been staying tight-lipped about all of it, and it is not going unnoticed. As President Trump and his team are laying the framework for a historic legal battle over the extreme bias and down right unlawful compromise of the election system, the “deafening” silence from key...

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, an ally of President Trump, blasted the commander-in-chief’s comments about claiming victory and threatening to ask the Supreme Court to halt more vote-counting. Christie said there is no evidence to back Trump’s claim that Democrats are trying to fraudulently steal the election away from him. “I talk tonight not as a former governor, but as a former US attorney. There’s just no basis to make that argument tonight. There just isn’t,” Christie told ABC News.

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Thursday blasted Montana Democratic Lt. Gov. Mike Cooney for unwittingly using him to troll his Republican opponent in the state's gubernatorial race. In a Cameo video message posted earlier Thursday to Cooney's Twitter account, Christie pleads with a person named "Greg," urging them to move back to New Jersey. Cameo is a website that allows users to pay for personalized video messages from celebrities, sports figures or musical artists. Cooney's campaign appears to have used Christie to take a swipe at his opponent in the race, Montana Rep. Greg Gianforte. The congressman moved...

Chris Christie, the former New Jersey governor, on Thursday became the latest Republican politician to be fooled into making a campaign video on behalf of a Democrat. Mr. Christie is one of many of Mr. Trump’s current and former associates available for hire on Cameo, an app that allows users to commission personalized videos from minor — and increasingly major — celebrities. The video, which cost $200, was framed as a jovial message to a person named Greg, who Mr. Christie was prompted to encourage to return to New Jersey, Greg’s former home. What Mr. Christie did not know was...

Jeb Bush Retweeted It was a serious failure for me, as a public figure, to go maskless at the White House, writes @GovChristie. I am lucky to be alive. https://t.co/vll08yVLXM via @WSJ— Governor Christie (@GovChristie) October 22, 2020

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie admitted it was a “big mistake” to let his “guard down” by going mask-free at the White House event where he contracted the virus. In his first televised appearance since his coronavirus diagnosis, Christie, 58, said he had a “false sense of security” in believing that everyone at the event for Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett had been tested for COVID-19. “For seven months, I was able to avoid the virus in one of the worst-hit states in the country, New Jersey,” Christie said on “Good Morning America” Friday

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie left the hospital on Saturday after a week-long stay that began shortly after he tested positive for COVID-19 last week. *snip* "In consultation with my doctors, I checked myself into Morristown Medical Center this afternoon. While I am feeling good and only have mild symptoms, due to my history of asthma we decided this is an important precautionary measure," he said. *Twitter Snip* Christie was part of Trump’s debate prep team ahead of the Sept. 29 debate between Trump and Democratic nominee Joe Biden. Christie later said that when people gathered the night before...

I just received word that I am positive for COVID-19. I want to thank all of my friends and colleagues who have reached out to ask how I was feeling in the last day or two. I will be receiving medical attention today and will keep the necessary folks apprised of my condition.

Paunchy former New Jersey governor Chris Christie once threatened to sit on Mike Bloomberg — during a bizarre, jealous rant involving the Queen of England. The asinine threat is alleged in former governor David Paterson’s dishy new memoir, “Black, Blind & in Charge.” It was July 8, 2010. Paterson was leading New York and Christie was the Garden State’s top exec as they awaited the arrival of Queen Elizabeth at Ground Zero, where the royal was to lay a wreath. […] “I was told by the protocol people that nobody escorts the Queen but Prince Philip,” the rotund Jersey chief...

The thousands of people who descended upon the Jersey Shore town for President Donald Trump's 'Keep America Great' rally at the Wildwoods Convention Center left behind a sea of trash in the parking lot — including their abandoned beach chairs and blankets — after the rally wrapped up.Rally-goers were allowed to bring chairs as they waited in line — some for up to 48 hours before the event — but they weren't allowed to bring them inside the venue.Factor in the blankets they used to stay warm, and all their drinks and food they were snacking on during the long wait...

Wednesday morning on The View, Whoopi Goldberg was out and Chris Christie was in. “Did you like that applause? All that adoration?” Joy Behar asked the former New Jersey governor after introducing him. “It beats booing, you know,” he replied. “That’s good. I’ll take it.” Abby Huntsman warned that it was “just the beginning of the show,” and she was right to be concerned because things got heated very fast when Behar asked Christie to weigh in on the impeachment of his one-time political ally Donald Trump.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Thursday said that “leftist” Democrats pressured House Speaker Nancy Pelosi into launching the impeachment inquiry into President Trump, and warned that the inquiry will ultimately go “nowhere.” “I think we now go to a very long and unproductive road,” he said during a chat on political civility at Seton Hall Law School with former N.J. Gov Chris Christie, according to The New York Daily News. “Speaker Pelosi was dealing with pressure from her caucus and...there is a heightened leftist component to the Democratic Party that she was feeling pressure for,” Cuomo said. “She is...

I was driving in my F-150 down the main drag in Morristown, NJ around 8pm last night. A door of a car that is parked on the side of the street opens. Out pops El Heffe Shamu! Chris Christey!It was in front of all the restaurants. He must have been hungry.True. Story. I guess it makes sense because he lives in Morris County I think. I am surprised he was driving himself. I guess he isn't rolling like the big dogs like Rush Limbaugh and Donald Hump (I mean Trump)!

The FBI is going to court to fight the public release of a small number of documents the State Department sent to agents from Christopher Steele, the British intelligence operative and Hillary Clinton-paid political muckraker, during the 2016 election. Normally, such Freedom of Information Act cases don’t merit public attention. This one does. To hear the FBI tell it, the release of former Deputy Assistant Secretary Kathleen Kavalec’s documents is tantamount to giving up the keys to President Trump’s nuclear briefcase, aiding the enemy or assisting terrorists. “We know that terrorist organizations and other hostile or foreign intelligence groups have...

On fellow freshman Democrat Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., who leapt to Omar's defense, Christie dismissed her as nothing more than a flash in the pan. “This is the problem with people like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They like to talk a lot, but they don’t want to be held responsible for anything they say, and the fact is that to diminish the attacks on 9/11, the greatest attack ever perpetrated on this country, on our soil from a terrorist organization, is to demean the lives that were lost that day, both among those who were in those buildings and on those planes, and those...
