Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani forcefully disagreed with former President Donald Trump after he endorsed Mike Sapraicone as the Republican choice to take on Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY).

On his Sunday WABC radio program, Giuliani told Newsmax contributor John Tobacco that he was "angry" and "disappointed" by Trump's endorsement because Sapraicone had donated to Letitia James, the New York attorney general who sued Trump, his family and his business.

The former chief of the Fraud Section in the Department of Justice blew off the worries Judge Aileen Cannon expressed on Friday about a DOJ policy about initiating a trial that would be looked upon as "political" based on who is under investigation.

At issue, is the so-called "60-day" limitation that he said is less than a rule and more of a policy that can be easily overridden.

Speaking with MSNBC host Jen Psaki, attorney Andrew Weissmann — who was the lead investigator working for former special counsel Robert Mueller — dismissed Cannon's concerns about a policy that should not be any concern to her.

"I think it's first so important for people to understand this: the 60-day rule in this case is not a thing," host Psaki prompted her guest. "Can you explain what the DOJ rule actually is, and your level of concern that Judge Cannon, with who should know better, asked about it and raised it?"

'There are two issues with Judge Cannon raising it," he began, "First of all it's an internal rule it's not a law, it's not something that gives any rights to any defendant. And Judge Cannon had been at the Justice Department; she knows that so the idea that she raised it is issue number one."

"That's red flag number one," he continued. "As to why is she even raising something that is just internal department guidance that the guidance could be changed by [Attorney General] Merrick Garland any day of the week. Second, the rule does not apply! For anyone that has been at the Justice Department this is such a red herring!"

"This is why it completely wrong!" he excitedly continued. "That rule is intended so that the Justice Department does not take action in a covert case that is suddenly overt shortly before an election. Why? Because you don't want to influence the election when that person the candidate doesn't have an opportunity to get to trial."

During an appearance on MSNBC, columnist Jennifer Rubin — a conservative until Donald Trump came along — pointed to the former president's latest "inanities" delivered in rally speeches and went so far as to call the presumptive GOP presidential nominee a "crackpot."

Speaking with host Ali Velshi, the opinion columnist was asked, "You just published a piece for the Washington Post this morning, titled 'Four ways Biden can make inroads with anti-Trump Republicans.' Talk to me about those."

Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren blasted House Republicans' effort to impeach President Joe Biden because it failed in the eyes of voters.

During a Sunday discussion on Fox News' Media Buzz program, host Howard Kurtz asked Lahren why Republicans had not come up with proof that impeachment was warranted.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) admitted on Sunday that he was sharing controversial information about China even though federal officials had not briefed him.

During an interview on Fox News, host Maria Bartiromo claimed that China was sending "largely military-aged men" to cross into the United States through the southern border.

Reacting to a Donald Trump rant during a rally appearance where he claimed the GOP is now "96 percent and maybe 100 percent" MAGA, former RNC head Michael Steele fired back on Sunday morning that the former president "needs to chill" and that moderate Republicans will "be coming after" the former president.

From his platform as a co-host on MSNBC's "The Weekend," Steele took particular exception at Trump calling Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) a RINO (Republican In Name Only).

Steele then launched into his own tirade.

“Game on, Trump, game on," he began. "I’ve been in this party since 1976. If anyone is the biggest RINO, it’s you. And we are coming for you. So, just so you understand, you drew the line, baby. I’m stepping up to it, and a whole lot of Republicans out there, at least 40 percent or more, are stepping to that line, too. So you just need to chill on that.”

With the encouragement of his co-hosts, he continued, "Just on notice: you bring it, baby. You wanna punk? Let’s punk, baby. Let’s go, one-on-one.”

"So, all of these folks, these late to the table RINOs, you want to throw a RINO — Donald Trump, you’re the biggest RINO in the room," he added. "The biggest one. And you’ve duped these folks into thinking that you’re somehow the conservative standard-bearer? Come on. You want to try to build a party and grow? You’re not doing it — you’re shrinking. What elections have you won? What elections have you won? None, except your own, and you’re not winning this one because you didn’t win the last one."

Fox News host Shannon Bream reminded Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) that former President Donald Trump had ordered lawmakers in the Republican Party to kill a deal that would have slowed illegal border crossings.

During an interview on Fox News Sunday, Bream noted that "many people think" Trump is "ruining the party."

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley suggested she might not endorse Donald Trump even though she signed a Republican National Committee (RNC) pledge to back the eventual presidential nominee.

During an interview on Sunday, NBC host Kristen Welker asked Haley if she had ruled out endorsing Trump.

Fox News host Rachel Campos-Duffy, mother of a child with Down syndrome, praised comedian Shane Gillis, who called kids like hers the R-word.

According to HuffPo, Gillis "casually dropped the R-word" while talking about Down syndrome children in his Saturday Night Live monologue.

Reacting to the latest primary results that show Donald Trump has not consolidated conservative support for his third bid for the Oval Office, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) offered some friendly advice to the former president that the numbers likely won't be there in November for him.

Appearing on MSNBC's "The Weekend," the California Democrat — and Trump antagonist — claimed that Trump may be the GOP frontrunner, but his outreach to voters is coming up short with a substantial number of Nikki Haley voters professing they won't vote for him if he is the GOP's presidential nominee in 2024.

Asked about Trump's prospects, Swalwell stated, "I would rather be us than Donald Trump right now."

"I'm hearing the concerns about uncommitted voters in Michigan and the president [Joe Biden] has work to do there, certainly, but when you look at Michigan, ten different counties voted for 30 percent or more for Nikki Haley," he elaborated. "Across the board in the primaries, 30 percent of Republican voters say they are never going to vote for Donald Trump."

"That is a helluva math problem for Donald Trump, especially when you look back in 2020 it was only 5 percent of Republican voters who said they were never going to vote for Donald Trump — he has a real math problem here," he continued. "He has a ceiling that keeps coming down every week when he shows us and reminds us who he is. Every day that Nikki Haley stays in this race, it shows Joe Biden who the voters are that are gettable for him in the campaign."
