The New Republic

Joe Biden had many lucid moments at his Thursday evening
press conference, but the idea that we’re going to judge Biden day by day on
the latest speech or press conference is terrifying, for two reasons. First, it
sets a ludicrously low bar that is bound to favor standing pat with Biden as
the nominee. This is because every one of these appearances is going to be
judged on whether he was better than he was at the June 27 debate, and every
time, the answer to that question is almost certain to be yes, because he can
hardly be worse. But is “He was better than...

Democrats: “He Was Better Than the Debate” Is Not Remotely Good Enough

Colorado State

Representative Lauren Boebert made an embarrassing display Wednesday when trying to speak about a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision, and got slammed with a sorely needed fact-check from one of her Democratic colleagues. During a House Oversight Committee hearing, the MAGA Colorado Republican attempted to interrogate Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Michael Regan about the fallout of the Supreme Court’s ruling in Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, which changes how the courts answer questions about ambiguous statutes. It became clear from her questions, however, that Boebert had no clue what Loper Bright was, or how it affects federal agencies, as she...

Boebert Gets Brutally Schooled on Supreme Court Ruling

Washington, DC

President Joe Biden’s poor debate performance and the consequent Democratic outburst of panic and rage largely overshadowed the end of this year’s U.S. Supreme Court term, which concluded last week with a bombshell decision on presidential immunity. The court held that presidents have absolute immunity from prosecution for official acts taken while in power, although private actions are not subject to immunity. It was a significant victory for Trump, as it all but ensured he will not face a criminal trial ahead of the upcoming presidential contest regarding his efforts to remain in power despite losing the 2020 election.“This is...

Written by Amy Lieberman , The Conversation ; Jeff Inglis , The Conversation , and Naomi Schalit , The Conversation. The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that a president, including former President Donald Trump , “may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts.”

Supreme Court Rules Trump Had Partial Immunity as President, but Not for Unofficial Acts

Donald Trump’s donors are reportedly fighting with each other over the prospect of Senator J.D. Vance becoming Trump’s running mate. The Daily Beast reports that Republican donors are sharply divided over Vance, with criticisms over his lack of political experience and business expertise. Some are also upset about one of Trump’s campaign managers, Susie Wiles, reportedly playing favorites with Vance.“The person who’s had some outside influence here is Susie Wiles,” one GOP strategist said, based on conversions with donors, adding that “she certainly wants Vance. Vance is like her little pet.”Donors are more inclined toward Senator Marco Rubio and North...

Trump’s Donors Really, Really Hate J.D. Vance

Delaware State

Delaware, OH

Donald Trump shocked nobody on Monday when he announced J.D. Vance as his running mate. All signs had been pointing toward the Ohio senator in recent weeks, and it’s hardly surprising that he would choose a sycophant and relative neophyte to share the stage with at this week’s Republican convention. Yet the decision does in fact represent a serious departure for Trump, one that ought to raise more concerns about his plans for a potential second term as president.Trump has a singular obsession in life, and that’s to win—at all costs, by any means. If he has to cheat, like...

The Scary Message Trump Sent by Choosing J.D. Vance

Georgia State

In the wake of the horrific attempt to shoot Donald Trump, Jim VandeHei and Mike Allen of Axios reported Monday that advisers close to the former president say he “plans to seize his moment by toning down his Trumpiness” and by “dialing up efforts to unite a tinder-box America.” Because Trump has suddenly stared death in the face, the report suggested, he has attained benevolence toward his political foes, which will manifest itself at this week’s GOP convention with a “unifying” display. As Tucker Carlson told Axios: “Getting shot changes a man.”Tell that to Trump himself. Only a few hours...

When Senator Mitch McConnell walked out on stage Monday at the Republican National Convention to nominate Donald Trump for president, he instantly got showered with a host of boos. The jeers inside the Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee were clearly audible as McConnell read out Kentucky’s delegate vote in favor of Donald Trump with a very small smile.Mitch McConnell gets booed at the RNC pic.twitter.com/6bZA4CcLb7— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 15, 2024Did McConnell expect a more favorable response?

A dramatic divide is erupting in the far-right House Freedom Caucus after the group voted to oust a third member in the span of a year. The ejection of Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, was led by allies of Chairman Bob Good, R-Va., Politico reported. Good recently lost a primary election for his district in Virginia – the only congressional Republican to do so – and Davidson openly backed Good’s challenger, the Trump-ensorsed John McGuire.

NBC faces a defamation lawsuit after a judge ruled that MSNBC hosts made “verifiably false" statements about a doctor performing unnecessary hysterectomies.

Doral, FL

Donald Trump gave a particularly incoherent speech during a recent rally, as he rattled through a lengthy list of odd grievances that didn’t quite ring true, devoid of some very necessary segues. In front of a crowd of about 700 people (although Trump claimed it was 45,000) in Doral, Florida, on Tuesday, the former president hit all of the normal beats of his campaign trail speeches, and then some. Trump attacked President Joe Biden for his weak performance in the presidential debate last month, and for many of his policies. He dropped Kamala Harris’s name more than a few times,...

Never mind about Project 2025: A Republican congressman just wants to go back to the good old days of 1960, before “the angry feminist movement” ruined things for men. In a speech on the House floor Thursday, Representative Glenn Grothman railed against government programs such as subsidized childcare, calling out President Lyndon Johnson’s “war on poverty” as taking “the purpose out of the man’s life, because now you have a basket of goodies for the mom.”“They’ve taken the purpose of the man to be part of a family,” Grothman said. “And if we want to get America back to, say, 1960,...

ABC News anchor George Stephanopolous was caught on film expressing doubt that President Joe Biden will be able to handle another term in the White House, only a few days after he did an exclusive interview with the embattled commander in chief. In a low-quality video published by TMZ Tuesday, a pedestrian approached Stephanopoulos on the street in New York City. “Do you think Biden should step down? You’ve talked to him more than anybody else has lately,” the man asked. “I don’t think he can serve four more years,” Stephanopolous replied, in a candid moment.It’s a troubling response from...

Biden’s Attempt to Prove His Fitness Just Blew Up in His Face

In October
2020, just a few weeks before he would defeat President Donald Trump, Joe Biden
made his clearest statement yet on whether Democrats—if so empowered by
voters—should expand the Supreme Court. “I’m not a fan of court-packing, but I
don’t want to get off on that whole issue,” Biden said. “I
want to keep focused. The president would love nothing better than to fight
about whether or not I would, in fact, pack the court or not pack the court.”But
Republicans had already packed the court. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death
handed President Trump the third opportunity to appoint a justice (Amy Coney
Barrett), and thereby to create...
