CNN legal analyst Elie Honig on Wednesday shoveled dirt on the Republican-led impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden, which was dealt a lethal blow this week after it was revealed that a key source for the inquiry admitted to having gotten information from people associated with Russian intelligence services.

At the start of his analysis, Honig explained how longtime FBI informant Alexander Smirnov managed to initially deceive law enforcement officials for so long.

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough ripped Republicans for swallowing lies that were fed to them from Russian intelligence.

The GOP's star witness in the House impeachment inquiry into President Joe Biden has been arrested for lying to the FBI, and he admitted to investigators that evidence he fed to lawmakers had come from sources with ties to Russian intelligence, which the "Morning Joe" host said that was more evidence that Donald Trump and the Republican Party are beholden to Vladimir Putin.

Prosecutors revealed that the so-called whistleblower in the Hunter Biden investigation was feeding disinformation directly from Russian spies to Republican lawmakers.

Alexander Smirnov admitted that "officials associated with Russian intelligence" were involved with passing along a story about President Joe Biden's son that became the basis of allegations in the GOP impeachment inquiry, and prosecutors said the former FBI informant was “actively peddling new lies that could impact U.S. elections.”

Fox News pundit Sean Hannity aired photographs of lines of light brown powder that appeared in Hunter Biden's newest court filing, accusing the government of mistaking sawdust for cocaine, and demanded to know if the public agreed.

"They are saying that is saw dust," Hannity declared. "Does that look like saw dust to you?"

The Lincoln Project, a group of former Republican strategists turned Donald Trump foes infamous for their ads goading him directly, took things a step further this month with a new ad featuring an AI recreation of the former president's deceased father, Fred Trump, proclaiming, "I'm ashamed of you!"

Speaking to MSNBC's Joy Reid on Tuesday evening, Lincoln Project strategist Tara Setmayer explained a bit of the thinking behind this stunt.

The Nation columnist Joan Walsh is worried Tucker Carlson is in crisis after he was lampooned on national television Monday night and she wants him to know testicular tanning is not the answer.

"It's a rough run for Tucker," Walsh told Ari Melber on the heels of a humiliating segment from Daily Show host Jon Stewart. "He's been completely neutered."

Former President Donald Trump is on track to pull the U.S. into a global crisis with help from an unexpected source: "little bunny rabbits."

That's according to David J. Rothkopf, who Tuesday slammed the Republican Party for kowtowing to Trump as the former president himself kowtows to Russian President Vladimir Putin with threats to withdraw from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization upon his return to the White House.

"The View" co-host Joy Behar mocked Donald Trump's fans for shelling out $400 for his sneakers while complaining about gas prices.

The former president unveiled shiny gold sneakers with "45" emblazoned on the side and uppers that resemble American flags, and panelists on "The View" found them ridiculous-looking and overpriced.

The leading contenders in the 2024 presidential election are two of the three oldest people ever to serve as president. President Joe Biden is 81. Former President Donald Trump is 77. Ronald Reagan took office at 69 and left it at age 77.

Both Biden and Trump have faced criticism about what can appear to be obvious signs of aging, including questions about their memory and cognitive abilities.

Nikki Haley tried to juice up her longshot bid at winning the 2024 Republican presidential nomination on Tuesday by holding a press event where she took shots at her party for rushing to fall in line behind former President Donald Trump.

In her speech, she pointed to multiple recent special election results, as well as others dating back to 2018, to argue that Trump has long been an anchor around the GOP's neck.

Christian actor Kirk Cameron speculated that the End Times might not happen in the near future as many of his religious contemporaries believe.

Despite starring in the 2000 "Left Behind" film about The Rapture, Cameron suggested to right-wing podcast host Steve Bannon that he had given up on Jesus coming back anytime soon.

Attorney Alina Habba doesn't worry about her reputation being harmed by representing former president Donald Trump.

Following a devastating judgment against her client in a New York fraud case, Habba was asked about her newfound celebrity in a Tuesday interview on Newsmax.

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner lauded Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis in a video posted to X on Tuesday, calling her exactly the sort of "street fighter" necessary to take down former President Donald Trump.

Willis -- who is prosecuting the election racketeering case in Georgia that includes Trump, several of his lawyers, and a handful of state GOP operatives -- is currently defending herself in an ethics hearing on her romantic relationship with a special prosecutor in her office, and she has grown visibly frustrated as Trump's co-defendants have made accusations of misconduct without hard evidence.
