2024 Elections

A group of powerful Republicans with decades of service in Washington D.C. have thrown their support behind Vice President Kamala Harris' presidential campaign, the conservative network Fox News was first to report.

Twelve White House lawyers who represented former presidents Ronald Reagan's, George H.W. Bush's and George W. Bush's administrations endorsed Harris over former President Donald Trump, whom they dubbed a danger to the nation.

Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) was furious that Democrats claimed the mantle of patriotism during this week's convention.

Delegates wore red-white-and-blue attire and attendees waved flags and chanted "U-S-A" as speakers touted their patriotism and service to the nation, but the Florida Republican insisted to CNN's Dana Bash that was all for show and that Donald Trump's party loved their country more.

Democratic political operative David Axelrod on Friday argued that former President Donald Trump was deeply rattled by what he saw from Vice President Kamala Harris at this week's Democratic National Convention.

Appearing on CNN, Axelrod said that Harris had surprised him by being a much stronger political candidate than she had been back in 2020, when the massive anti-police brutality protests that erupted in the wake of George Floyd's killing made her reluctant to talk about her background as a prosecutor.

While Trumpism might be here to stay, Donald Trump himself might be finally done if he loses in November.

Washington Post columnist Philip Bump penned the potential future in a Friday piece that the end might be on the horizon.

A Fox News contributor Friday received a stern warning from an influential Republican commentator who said his attack on a neurodivergent teenager's family should be retracted or used against him.

Fox News contributor Joe Concha expressed disdain — in a since-deleted tweet — that Gov. Tim Walz tugged his neurodivergent son Gus' hand as they mounted the stage of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago this week.

Right-wing election officials in Georgia have passed a series of significant changes to counting ballots in this November's elections, and they may not be finished.

The five-member state election board has adopted rules that would allow local election boards to conduct a nebulously defined "reasonable inquiry" into the voting results and allow any individual board member to "examine" all the documentation created during the election before certifying the vote, which experts say violates state law, reported The Guardian.

Former President Donald Trump raised immediate hackles on Friday when he pledged that his administration would be a champion for women's reproductive freedoms.

Writing on his Truth Social platform, Trump claimed that "My Administration will be great for women and their reproductive rights."

Former Fox News and Newsmax host Eric Bolling on Friday had a full-blown freak out about the state of the 2024 presidential race.

In a video flagged by former federal and state prosecutor Ron Filipkowski, Bolling offered a candid opinion of the current election, which he warned was slipping from former President Donald Trump's grasp. Filipkowski referred to the statement as an "epic rant."

Donald Trump's swift backtrack from blatant attacks on Georgia GOP Gov. Brian Kemp spurred hilarity among political pundits who called it an act of desperation Friday.

Trump's social media blasts praising Kemp — whom he slammed as a "disloyal" Republican and poor governor during an Atlanta rally earlier this month — suggested the former president held deeper concerns about his ability to claim the swing state he lost in 2020, analysts said.

Lance Trover, the former spokesperson for Gov. Doug Burgum's (R-ND) presidential campaign, tried to make the case Friday that former Donald Trump lawyer Michael Cohen was inconsequential.

CNN anchor Jim Acosta wasn't buying it.

On Friday morning, the entire panel on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" reacted with hoots of laughter over reporting on Donald Trump's frenzy of posting on Truth Social during Vice President Kamala Harris' nomination acceptance speech late Thursday night.

In particular, a Trump post that asked, "WHERE’S HUNTER?" just before he complained, "[Tim] Walz was an ASSISTANT Coach, not a COACH," drew laughter.
