'Isn't pro wrestling fake?': The Internet reacts to Trump's latest threat to CNN with humor -- and horror

On CNN Wednesday, analyst John Avlon laid out the importance of former President Donald Trump's legal battle with Congress and the National Archives to prevent the release of White House communications related to the January 6 Capitol attack — and argued that moving quickly is key to setting a precedent to prevent a similar coup attempt in the future.

"As someone who deals with the National Archives, these are — these papers are the property of the American people. They're not owned privately by the president," said Avlon. "And consistently what we're seeing is this Trump playbook of trying to delay and apply frivolous lawsuits and all that. The underlying issue is to apply the law. Apply the law. This is going to be pressure on Merrick Garland, the question of supporting criminal contempt charges which was done successfully during Watergate, less successfully during the 1980s."

New footage from the Jan. 6 insurrection shows Donald Trump supporters shocking police Officer Michael Fanone with a stun gun.

The clip will air Wednesday night in the HBO documentary, "Four Hours at the Capitol," which details the violent assault that nearly killed Fanone, left five people dead and injured 138 other police officers.

Sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska lashed out after the FBI raided two homes connected to him on Tuesday.

"Deripaska, a politically connected tycoon whose name came up repeatedly in recent investigations involving Russia and the 2016 presidential campaign of Donald Trump, is tied to the home on 30th Street NW through a company incorporated in Delaware, according to property records. Property records also link him to a home in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of Manhattan that officials said was also searched Tuesday," The Washington Post reported.
