The big news from Donald Trump’s Manhattan criminal hush money trial Monday was Judge Juan Merchan clearing the courtroom so he could reprimand the Trump legal team’s combative witness, Robert Costello — who had spent the last several days publicly attacking the judge and the proceedings.
Costello, a lawyer, previously advised Michael Cohen, the longtime Trump fixer who is now prosecutors’ key witness in their case against the former president. During his testimony, Merchan admonished Costello for audibly and visibly reacting — including apparently rolling his eyes — in response to...

Rep. Elise Stefanik does not like being reminded that she once called Donald Trump a “whack job” and “insulting to women.” During a Fox News interview, the New York Republican got heated when host Shannon Bream read excerpts from a New York Times article that included quotes showing Stefanik was initially critical of Trump’s candidacy in 2016.
The Times article quoted Stefanik telling a radio station in 2016 that Trump was “insulting to women” in the Access Hollywood tape where he bragged that he liked to “grab” women “by the pussy.

Self-avowed pro-First Amendment, anti-government repression Senators Tom Cotton (R-Ark.) and Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) are demanding President Joe Biden unleash the full force of the state’s National Guard to suppress pro-Palestinian student protests at Columbia University.
“If [New York City Mayor] Eric Adams won’t send the NYPD and [New York Governor] Kathy Hochul won’t send the National Guard, Joe Biden has a duty to take charge and break up these mobs,” Cotton wrote Monday on X, formerly Twitter, describing the protests as “nascent pogroms” against Jews — invoking the term used to describe historic massacres against Jewish communities.

The House of Representatives has advanced a bill that could effectively ban TikTok within the United States. The legislation will now advance to the Senate, where it will likely face a steeper road to adoption.
The bill, titled the Protecting Americans From Foreign Adversary Controlled Applications Act, would require TikTok to sever itself completely from its Chinese parent company ByteDance or face a potential ban from mobile app stores and web-hosting services. The bill would also create a process through which the president can designate certain social media applications with...

On Monday, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that states could not remove Donald Trump from their ballots using the 14th Amendment’s insurrection clause.
However, the Supreme Court justices were divided about how broadly this decision would end up sweeping. A five-to-four majority wrote that no state could exclude a federal candidate from any ballot – but four justices argued that the court should have kept its opinion limited.
A five-justice majority – Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh – wrote that states cannot remove any federal officer from the ballot, especially the president, unless Congress first passes legislation.
“We conclude that States may disqualify persons holding or attempting to hold state office. But States have no power under the Constitution to enforce Section 3 with respect to federal offices, especially the Presidency,” these justices said.

Donald Trump’s fascistic rhetoric about how immigrants are “poisoning the blood” of the country, as well as the GOP’s embrace of the “great replacement theory,” are repellent to many Americans. But for a startling number of people, new survey results exclusively provided to Rolling Stone reveal, the message that immigrants pose a dark threat to the nation is being met with enthusiasm — or a dangerous shrug of indifference.

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-New York), the House Republican Conference Chair, declared that she would have handled the certification of the 2020 election results on January 6, 2021, differently than former Vice President Mike Pence.
In an interview with CNN on Thursday evening, Stefanik stated, “I would not have done what Mike Pence did. I don’t think that was the right approach.”
However, Stefanik did not provide any specific details about what she would have done differently. When questioned about whether she would be comfortable with Vice President Kamala Harris rejecting state votes in the event of Trump’s reelection, Stefanik changed the subject and did not directly address the question.
Stefanik’s remarks came about a month after she declined to commit to certifying the results of the 2024 presidential election and stated that she would only do so if they were deemed “constitutional.” She voiced concerns about what she perceived as unconstitutional actions in the 2020 election,...

Elise Stefanik, who many view as a top contender to be Donald Trump’s 2024 pick as vice president, says she would not have certified Joe Biden’s election if she, not Mike Pence, were VP at the time.
“I would not have done what Mike Pence did,” the GOP conference chair told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins Thursday night when asked what she would have done as vice president on Jan. 6, 2021, when thousands of Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol as Pence was presiding over the certification of the Electoral College votes.

The Supreme Court heard arguments on Thursday pertaining to whether states can throw Donald Trump off the 2024 presidential ballots if they determine he violated the 14th Amendment — which essentially disqualifies insurrectionists from holding office. The former president shouldn’t be too worried, however, as the conservative-controlled court seems unlikely to permit what Chief Justice John Roberts described as a “pretty daunting consequence.”
The justices did not seem very concerned with the question of whether Trump is actually an insurrectionist, only addressing it briefly during the proceedings. Trump lawyer Jonathan Mitchell...

In a show of support for former President Donald Trump, Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-Florida) and Elise Stefanik (R-New York) unveiled a concise resolution on Tuesday, declaring that Trump “did not engage in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.”
The one-page resolution, which boasted over 60 co-sponsors from the GOP, emerges amidst efforts by various groups across the nation who seek to disqualify Trump from the 2024 presidential election ballots.
These groups argue that Trump’s involvement in the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack constituted an insurrection, invoking the language of the 14th Amendment, which disqualifies individuals who have engaged in such acts from holding office.
In December, the Colorado Supreme Court excluded Trump from the Republican Party ballot in the state. This decision will now be reviewed by the Supreme Court.
Gaetz referenced this case during a press conference, accompanied by over 10 co-sponsors.

House Republicans announced a resolution Monday to “authoritatively express” that Donald Trump “did not engage in insurrection or rebellion.” The stunt comes days before the Supreme Court hears oral arguments Thursday in an appeal of the Colorado Supreme Court’s ruling that the former president “engaged in an insurrection” on Jan. 6, 2021, and is constitutionally ineligible to be president.

The Senate has finally released its long-discussed, much-debated, bipartisan border package. Despite their demands for many of the increased security measures the bill would provide, House Republicans are setting aside their self-proclaimed commitment to border reform in favor of blocking a potential PR victory for the Biden administration.
Only hours after the 370-page document was released, House Republican leadership was already shutting the doors on its prospects in the lower chamber.

U.S. District Judge Royce Lamberth, an appointee of former President Ronald Reagan, said he is “shocked” that some Republican politicians are trying to rewrite history by labeling the January 6 Capitol rioters as “hostages.”
Lamberth’s statement was part of a ruling tied to the sentencing of James Little, a January 6 defendant who was convicted of misdemeanor offenses and has sought to argue that he had been politically prosecuted.
The court ordered that Little be committed to the custody of the Bureau of Prisons for 150 days.
He had appealed, and the federal appeals court sent it back to Lamberth for resentencing despite the fact that the defendant already completed his incarceration.
“Mr. Little has consistently refused to take responsibility for his actions on January 6 – today is the first time he has come close to accepting responsibility,” Lamberth wrote in a ruling on January 26. “He has denied the gravity of what...

Donald Trump’s campaign refused to agree to let an NBC News correspondent travel with him on New Hampshire campaign stops today as the designated pool reporter, leading to access being cut off for the day.
According to a pool report obtained by Deadline, correspondent Vaughn Hillyard was informed “that if he was the designated pooler by NBC News that the pool would be cut off for the day.”
“After affirming to the campaign that your pooler would attend the events, NBC News was informed at about 2:20pmET that the pool would not be allowed to travel with Trump today,” the pool report stated.
It’s believed by sources at the network that the campaign refused to allow Hillyard in the pool because of his questions on Saturday to Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-ny), a Trump surrogate, about the E. Jean Carroll case. A jury last year found Trump liable...

House Republican leader, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-New York), rescinded her endorsement from Craig Riedel, a House of GOP candidate, due to the criticisms he made against former President Donald Trump.
On January 4, Stefanik announced on X that she would no longer endorse Riedel.
“Earlier this week, I informed Craig Riedel (Ohio-9) that I will be withdrawing my endorsement,” she wrote. “I was very disappointed in his inappropriate comments regarding President Trump.”
“As we begin 2024, my focus is on ensuring we nominate the strongest candidates on the ballot who are committed to electing President Trump this November and expanding our House GOP Majority,” Stefanik declared.
Riedel is a GOP former state representative running for Congress.
He made it clear in an audio recording that he would not endorse Trump and noted that his habit of insulting others does not seem presidential.
The recording was posted by the right-wing activist Charlie Kirk on X.

“Would you vote to certify, and will you vote to certify, the results of the 2024 election, no matter what they show?” Kristen Welker, the host of Meet the Press, asked.
“Well, I voted not to certify the state of Pennsylvania, because as we saw in Pennsylvania and other states across the country, that there was unconstitutional acts circumventing the State legislature and unilaterally changing election law,” Stefanik responded.
“What about 2024, Congresswoman?” Welker asked.
“We will see if this is a legal and valid election,” Stefanik replied. “What we’re seeing so far is that Democrats are so desperate, they’re trying to remove President [Donald] Trump from the ballot.

Cecily Strong, a former Saturday Night Live cast member, made a surprise return to the show ahead of the December 9 edition. The actress and comedian, who departed SNL at the end of 2022, took part in rehearsals portraying Rep. Elise Stefanik. However, when the show aired, Strong had been replaced by new featured cast member Chloe Troast in the same role, according to sources. Saturday Night Network also confirmed the news. Speculation arose about Strong possibly postponing her return to appear on the next week’s episode, where Kate McKinnon, another alum, was set to host. The reason for Strong’s substitution in the cold open was unclear. It was also unknown how much preparation Troast had before taking on the role and interpreting the political character in her own way. The sketch itself faced mixed reactions, with lukewarm laughs and a predominantly negative response from viewers online. Additionally, there were errors in the sketch,...

So was Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-ny), the Trump-supporting congresswoman whose queries nevertheless triggered a bipartisan furor directed at university presidents, who have been faced with weeks of protests on their campuses over the Israel-Gaza war. In clips that went viral this week, Stefanik asked whether someone calling “for the genocide of Jews” would violate the schools’ code of conduct. The university presidents did not answer “yes” or “no” and instead gave nuanced responses.
In the SNL skit, staged as C-span coverage, the three gave even more opaque answers.

Update: Rep. Mike Johnson (R-la) won the vote for speaker, ending three-weeks of Republican intra-party divisions and bitter argument that paralyzed the House.
Johnson won 220 votes while Hakeem Jeffries drew 209 votes. The manual roll call was a contrast to previous ones, as Republicans were unified in their support of the Louisiana Republican, who is little known on the national stage. Yet late on Tuesday, he managed to win a GOP closed-door vote to win the nomination, with members quickly predicting that they would finally coalesce around a speaker candidate.
“The challenge is great, but the time for action is now, and I will not let you down,” Johnson told members after taking the gavel. He said that the first bill he will bring to the floor will be a resolution in support of Israel. He also said that he planned to create a bipartisan commission on the national debt, and...

Donald Trump got indicted again on Tuesday and, once again, it’s all pretty damning.
The former president is accused of perpetrating an illegal scheme to circumvent the democratic process and stay in power despite losing the 2020 presidential election to Joe Biden, leading to, as Special Counsel Jack Smith described it, “an unprecedented assault on the seat of American democracy.”
Trump’s lawyers, allies in Congress, and propagandists across right-wing media, however, want you to believe he was indicted merely for voicing concerns about the integrity of the electoral process.

House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) is backing two resolutions introduced by Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and Elise Stefanik (R-n.Y.) looking to expunge Donald Trump’s two impeachments by the House of Representatives.
Speaking to reporters while exiting the Capitol on Friday, McCarthy said that he felt it was “appropriate” to expunge the impeachments “because it never should have gone through.”
Trump was impeached twice over the course of his presidency. First in 2019 over allegations that he tried to extort Ukrainian government officials into launching a public investigation into...

“Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough was outraged on Friday morning, this time by the response from some Republicans to Donald Trump’s second indictment. According to the MSNBC host, those responses are nothing but “sleazy” sentiments that demonstrate an “absolute contempt for the United States of America.”
The second indictment officially came down on Thursday, as part of Jack Smith’s ongoing investigation into the mishandling of classified documents that were eventually seized from Mar-a-Lago. It’s unknown exactly what charges Trump faces next, but Scarborough noted on Friday morning that he believes Trump will have to plea out to avoid jail time.
Of course, some prominent Republicans — from House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to Steve Scalise to Elise Stefanik — have thrown their support behind the twice-impeached former president once again, instead attacking Biden and saying that he has “weaponized” his Department of Justice to attack his own political opponents.

For a second time this year, Donald Trump is facing criminal charges. The former president is reportedly being slapped with a seven-count federal indictment amid an investigation into his unauthorized hoarding of classified documents after leaving office.
A source with knowledge of the matter previously told Rolling Stone that the charges include items related to possession of documents, obstruction, and false statements. Republican lawmakers, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, rallied around Trump, denouncing the indictment.

Responding to a New York Times report that former president Donald Trump is telling friends and associates that getting arrested would be a “fun experience,” “Morning Joe” hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough agreed that he’s just “talking big,” despite being “horrified.”
“Trump, for his part, is reportedly downplaying his predicament behind closed doors,” panelist Willie Geist said in his intro to the report. “According to the New York Times, the former president has told friends and associates he welcomes the idea of being paraded around by the authorities, as long as he’s surrounded by the media.”
To this, Brzezinski audibly sighed over Geist’s continued set-up.
“He also reportedly mused openly about whether to smile for the cameras during that possible perp walk and described the potential situation as a fun experience,” Geist said, which earned a “Really?” from Brzezinski before she and Scarborough weighed in.

When the White House called up Twitter in the early morning hours of September 9, 2019, officials had what they believed was a serious issue to report: Famous model Chrissy Teigen had just called President Donald Trump “a pussy ass bitch” on Twitter — and the White House wanted the tweet to come down.

Kevin McCarthy kicked off his tenure as House Speaker by stocking the chamber’s committees with bigots, conspiracy theorists, and election deniers. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Paul Gosar, who both have a history of cavorting with white supremacists, were part of the new appointments — despite having been previously removed from their committee assignments for suggesting violent action be taken against Democratic lawmakers.
Gosar didn’t waste any time reminding Americans what the Republican Party represents, pushing the idea that President Joe Biden may be trying to flood the United States...

Republican lawmakers have rushed to the defense of far-right TV network Newsmax after the channel was dropped by AT&T’s DirecTV. According to the satellite television provider, the split stemmed from a carriage fee dispute that would have resulted in “significantly higher costs” and increased customer fees. The channel claims they are being wrongfully censored for their political viewpoints, and have already found allies amongst Republican lawmakers.
The party of free-market capitalism has responded to DirecTV booting Newsmax by arguing that the network should carry the Trump-loving propaganda network, financial considerations be damned.

The House gave final passage on Thursday to legislation to ensure federal recognition of same-sex and interracial unions, clearing a final milestone in Congress before going to President Joe Biden.
The legislation passed by a vote of 258-169. One member of House Republican leadership, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-ny) joined with 38 other GOP members in voting for the bill. Rep. Tom Emmer (R-mn), who chaired the National Republican Congressional Commitee in the most recent midterms, also voted for it, along with Rep. Liz Cheney (R-wy).
Democrats erupted in cheers as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the final tally, with some LGBTQ members, including Sean Patrick Maloney of New York and Mark Takano of California hugging their colleagues. Barney Frank, the former congressman who was one of the most prominent openly gay members, was present on the floor for the vote, chatting and shaking hands with former colleagues.

When Rep. Steve Scalise (R.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene has endorsed Carl Paladino, a far-right Republican running to represent New York’s 23rd District in the House of Representatives, and who hired a convicted sex offender to work on his campaign. “Carl is the America First, pro-Trump candidate in the race,” Greene wrote in a statement.
I am honored to have the endorsement of America First warrior @RepMTG. No one is standing up to Joe Biden’s radical agenda better than her. I look forward to working with her to stop Joe Biden and push pro-Trump policies in Congress.

Republican congressional candidate Carl Paladino told Breitbart listeners last week that Attorney General Merrick Garland “probably should be executed” following the FBI’s raid of former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate last Monday..
In an interview with Breitbart’s Matthew Boyle, Paladino said that “people like Garland, who should not only be impeached, he probably should be executed.”
“He’s a lost soul. He’s trying to get an image, and his methodology is just terrible,” Paladino elaborated. “To raid the home of a former president is just … people...

The House of Representatives on Tuesday passed legislation that provides rights to same-sex marriage, following concerns that future Supreme Court decisions could roll back precedent.
The legislation passed 267-157, with all Democrats joined by 47 Republicans in support.
The Respect for Marriage Act also would ensure rights to interracial marriage.
The bipartisan nature of the vote has given Senate sponsors hopes that the bill could clear the 60-vote threshold in that chamber, but it is unclear when or if it will make it to the floor.
After the Supreme Court’s conservative majority overturned Roe v. Wade last month, Democrats have warned that other precedents are also in jeopardy, in part because Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in his concurrence that past decisions on same-sex marriage and access to contraception should be reconsidered.

Republican congressional candidate Carl Paladino has hired a convicted sex offender as the new “assistant treasurer” of his campaign, the New York Post reported on Wednesday.
Joel Sartori, a former controller of Paladino’s development firm, was convicted on charges related to possessing and promoting child pornography in 2017, and sentenced to 10 years probation. Paladino has kept Sartori on his payroll as assistant controller for Ellicott Development. “Joel has been with me for ages,” Paladino told the Post, ”He served his punishment for what he did. He’s a wonderful employee.

Lots of Republicans are close with the gun lobby. But for Elise Stefanik, the third-ranking Republican in the House, the relationship is more like: Until death do us part.
Stefanik’s husband, Matt Manda, is the public affairs manager for the firearm industry’s top trade association, the National Shooting Sports Foundation. Despite the sporty branding, Nssf does the bidding of hardcore gunmakers. Its board of governors includes the CEO of Daniel Defense, the gunmaker whose Ar-15 was the massacre weapon in Uvalde, as well as executives from Smith & Wesson,...

House Democrats will ask their chamber on Wednesday to condemn last month’s massacre at a grocery store in Buffalo, New York. They will also ask them to rebuke the great replacement theory, a white supremacist conspiracy the 18-year-old gunman cited as motivation for the killing spree that left 10 Black people dead. No one expects any Republicans to vote for this resolution, which they’ll surely consider to be a partisan maneuver. Democrats will ask for it anyway because “Congress has to do something,” says Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-n.Y.

The hosts of “The View” are very, very hopeful that Americans will make a point to watch the upcoming hearings of the Jan. 6 committee. At the very least, they hope it’s given the same amount of attention as the defamation trial between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard.
Starting this Thursday, testimony from some key players in Donald Trump’s administration about the insurrection at the Capitol on Jan. 6 will be televised, including that of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner. Republican congresswoman Liz Cheney has said that these hearings need to be appointment television for all Americans, and the hosts of “The View” largely agreed.
“It’s at least as important as Amber Heard and Johnny Depp,” Whoopi said seriously. “So people should make sure that they’re watching.”
