The conservative Supreme Court has surprisingly chosen not to help out their buddy Donald Trump for once. On Monday, the high court declined to postpone Trump’s hush-money trial sentencing, after Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey tried to sue the state of New York to delay the legal proceedings. Bailey also sought to remove Trump’s gag order on claims that it violated the First Amendment rights of voters who could not hear the former president and convicted felon speak.The case was a long-shot effort, but still, it is surprising given the Supreme Court’s decision to grant Trump near total immunity last...

(The Center Square) – U.S. Rep. Ronnie Jackson, R-Texas, the former White House physician, said neither President Joe Biden nor Vice President Kamala Harris were fit to serve as president.

Vice President Kamala Harris is currently the only serious candidate to be the new Democratic nominee following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the race Sunday. A host of party bigwigs swung right in behind her, but there are still some extremely notable silences.After announcing his own departure, Biden offered his “full support and endorsement” to Harris to succeed him at the top of the ticket in November. Other major Democratic players quickly followed suit but some of the biggest party figures—including former President Obama—are yet to do so.One of the reasons Biden hesitated to abandon his own campaign was because...

SEATTLE - We all heard the phrase "when one door closes, another opens," and for 53-year-old Senator from Florida Marco Rubio, the popular saying could not be more true. Eight years ago, he missed out on the chance of being elected as the Republican presidential nominee for 2016. More recently, many people believed Rubio was a top candidate to be Donald Trump's running mate for the 2024 elections, which eventually went to Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. But Florida Republicans argue that there is another door that could open for Rubio, as they see him as top contender for another high-profile job in a future Trump administration.

Even Colbert’s audience got a kick out of that one. Listen, I don’t have to tell you the problems with our media right now. Cable news networks are pretty much just activists posing as journalists at this point, and though they try to hide behind their job to pretend to be objective, it’s pretty clear that everybody on these networks has an agenda these days.

Kamala Harris is once again on the cover of TIME magazine. But the artwork—a sketch of the vice president surrounded by supporters holding her campaign signs aloft—isn’t for an interview. Instead, it’s for a story by Charlotte Alter with the headline: “The Reintroduction of Kamala Harris.” The piece looks at how Harris has “pulled off the swiftest vibe shift in modern political history” following her replacement of President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket. Harris also featured on the cover of the magazine last month, literally stepping into the frame as Biden exits. Her reappearance on the hallowed cover comes amid Republican attacks on Harris over her lack of media interviews since obtaining the Democratic nomination, with her most recent TV interviews coming in June, according to Politico. Last week, Harris said she wants to “get an interview scheduled before the end of the month.”The reintroduction of Kamala Harris https://t.co/noW5TOgawP pic.twitter.com/iLmQIhxOeF— TIME (@TIME) August 12, 2024
