There's not much difference between a typical MAGA influencer and the right-wing, former champion boxer expelled this week by the World Boxing Council for repeatedly hurling racial slurs against Black people and disparaging Muslims, a new editorial contends.

That's according to Ja'han Jones, a futurist writer for MSNBC's The ReidOut Blog, who wrote Friday about Ryan Garcia's expulsion from the boxing organization.

Experts are calling Donald Trump's former national security advisor's proposal to resume detonating nuclear weapons after a three-decade pause a "terrible idea," as he insists that "if you want peace, prepare for war."

Robert C. O’Brien made his case in the July-August issue of Foreign Affairs magazine that the United States ought to bring back nuclear weapons testing as China and Russia have "modernized their nuclear arsenals."

Former President Donald Trump invoked the Supreme Court's recent immunity decision to demand Judge Aileen Cannon rule special counsel Jack Smith's appointment is unconstitutional, according to a new filing in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case.

The Supreme Court ruled that presidents have a presumption of immunity from prosecution for "official acts," but gave lower courts very little guidance on what type of acts are official or unofficial.

Arizona's political landscape has changed a great deal since conservative Republican Jan Brewer was sworn in as governor in January 2009.

Back then, Arizona was still considered a red state and a bastion of Barry Goldwater/John McCain conservatism. But these days, Arizona is regarded as a swing state — not unlike Pennsylvania or Virginia — and Arizona Democrats are winning more statewide races than they used to.

On Friday morning, former CNN media analyst and host Brian Stelter returned to the network that fired him to weigh in on the fall-out from President Joe Biden's disastrous CNN debate performance which led to questions about Vice President Kamala Harris taking his place at the top of the ticket.

Since the debate, Stelter has been on his X account providing blow-by-blow reports about Biden's ongoing difficulties and, on Friday, he addressed those issues with CNN's Jim Sciutto.

Former President Donald Trump bragged Friday that he never called a group of neo-Nazis "very fine people" — but cited a controversial fact-check that has been partially disclaimed as proof.

Trump published his boast to Truth Social in the form of a quotation which he attributes to a report from the conservative tabloid the New York Post, but actually originates with a Fox News post.
