CNN political commentator Charles Blow flipped a conservative panelist's guilt-by-association attack back on Donald Trump during a heated Monday night clash, invoking Jeffrey Epstein and Trump's affinity for authoritarian leaders in a comeback that quickly ricocheted across social media.

The clash unfolded on "NewsNight" with host Abby Phillip, where Blow and National Review columnist Caroline Downey are frequent sparring partners. Downey was pressing the argument that Democratic candidates campaigning alongside progressive streamer Hasan Piker should be judged by that association.

Conservative judge Michael Luttig warned Monday that President Donald Trump seems likely to push Congress into a "high noon" scenario if the midterms don't go well for Republicans.

If public polling is any indication, Democrats could win both the House of Representatives and the Senate after the midterms, which would significantly imperil the Trump administration. Trump seems to have preemptively dispatched his son-in-law Jared Kushner to negotiate some kind of truce with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), as reports of a meeting between the two men have rankled political analysts across the spectrum.

President Donald Trump seems to have dispatched his "secret weapon" in hopes of staving off the one thing he is terrified of happening, according to one expert.

David Rothkopf, global affairs columnist for The Daily Beast and a former international trade official in the Clinton White House, argued during a new episode of "The Daily Beast Podcast" that Jared Kushner's secret meeting with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) signals that Trump is terrified of being impeached again. Kushner wouldn't have met with Jeffries unless the White House is preparing for Democrats to regain control of the House of Representatives after the midterms.

The Supreme Court undermined its own prior rulings to give President Donald Trump a win on his mail-in ballot executive order, GOP legal expert Ben Ginsberg told CNN's Kaitlan Collins.

The order requires the U.S. Postal Service to restrict delivery of mail ballots to states that haven't handed over vast troves of voter information to the Department of Homeland Security — which, if implemented now, could lead to widespread chaos.

Fox News host Jesse Watters was cornered during a fiery interview on Fox News over a "personal question."

Watters interviewed Abdul El-Sayed, a progressive in Michigan who earned the Democratic nomination for the U.S. Senate race, on Monday, where the two got into a tense back-and-forth about one political topic that made Watters a little uncomfortable. During one debate about health care, El-Sayed backed Watters into a corner that the host was all too eager to escape.

CNN's Erin Burnett rocked President Donald Trump's past claims about mail-in voting in a devastating supercut on Monday.

The Supreme Court issued a narrow ruling on Monday blocking a lower court's injunction that prohibited the Department of Homeland Security from creating its own voter roll. Experts sounded the alarm after the 6-3 ruling because it could throw the midterm elections, just 10 weeks away, into chaos.

Legal experts raised chilling questions about the Supreme Court's latest ruling, which gave President Donald Trump's administration a temporary win in its crusade to restrict mail-in ballots.

On Monday, the court lifted a lower court's injunction that prevented Trump's mail-in ballot executive order from being implemented. The order required the Postal Service to list voters who use mail-in ballots and told the Department of Homeland Security to create its own voter roll. The order is part of Trump's long-standing attacks against mail-in voting, which he has described as "fraud" despite having voted by mail in multiple recent Florida elections.

A veteran New York Times reporter spotted a revealing detail in House Speaker Mike Johnson’s response to a news-making bipartisan meeting: his reluctance to anger the president or his inner circle.

Maggie Haberman, who has covered Trump extensively, made the observation Monday on CNN while discussing Johnson’s reaction to Jared Kushner’s private meeting with House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries.

Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann was aghast over new reporting that President Donald Trump intervened directly to broker a sweetheart settlement for the Live Nation concert monopoly case.

Live Nation's anticompetitive practices, partly carried out through its subsidiary Ticketmaster, have unfairly cost millions of people extra to get tickets to live venues, and even some of Trump's own allies, like Kid Rock, have condemned the settlement as a disaster. The new reporting reveals the breakthrough happened when Live Nation retained a law firm Trump himself has used to get out of many legal snafus.

A GOP strategist broke ranks on Monday after the Supreme Court handed down a bombshell ruling on President Donald Trump's mail-in ballot executive order.

The Supreme Court lifted a lower court's injunction preventing the executive order from going into effect on procedural grounds. The narrow order is likely to cause chaos ahead of the midterm elections, which are about 10 weeks away, according to some experts.

President Donald Trump's new plan to import hundreds of thousands of tons of beef will spell nothing but disaster, said John Boyd Jr., a cattle and soybean farmer who heads up the National Black Farmers Association, on MS NOW Monday.

"I believe that this is a raw deal," Boyd told anchor Katy Tur, noting that Trump "keeps making the announcement that he loves farmers, he loves cattlemen, and then undermines us with 300,000 metric tons of foreign beef that we don't even know where it's coming from," Boyd noted that there was a significant recall of Argentinian beef imports in the United States.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford tore into President Donald Trump on Monday as a bully, a dictator, and a man unfit to give lessons on economics.

Ford unloaded at a press conference in Hamilton after Trump's Monday announcement of 50% tariffs on Canadian autos and steel — the latest blow after trade talks between the two nations collapsed Friday.
