As he approaches the one-year anniversary of the launch of Truth Social, former president Donald Trump is facing a decision about the future of the struggling social media platform.

According to a report in Newsweek, Trump's exclusivity agreement with Truth Social is up for renewal in June, a renewal decision that takes on increased importance now that he is being welcomed back to Twitter by new owner Elon Musk. Meta -- formerly Facebook -- is also opening the door to Trump's return after a two-year ban.

The "staggering volume" of texts from Fox News personalities showing they knew they were lying to their viewers about 2020 election fraud could lead the judge overseeing the $1.6 billion Dominion lawsuits to quickly rule against the conservative network without even going to trial.

That is the opinion of legal scholars — some of whom were stunned by the mountain of evidence presented in the legal brief submitted to the court by Dominion Voting Systems — who spoke with the Guardian's Charles Kaiser.

Former President Donald Trump lashed out at Rupert Murdoch's media empire on Sunday after The New York Post published what he said was a "puff piece" about Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL).

In a message posted to his Truth Social platform, Trump called attention to Salena Zito's profile of DeSantis.

Former acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller said he is not sure if President Donald Trump installed him to slow the response to the Capitol attack on Jan. 6.

During a Sunday discussion on C-SPAN's Washington Journal program, a caller confronted Miller about his role in the Jan. 6 attack.

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley struggled on Sunday to make the case for her presidential bid.

In an interview on Fox News, host Shannon Bream told Haley that the Wall Street Journal had called on her to "provide a rationale" for her 2024 candidacy. Aaron Rupar first highlighted the clip on Twitter.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Sunday addressed whether he regrets his testimony to Georgia's special grand jury investigating former President Donald Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election.

During an interview on ABC, host Martha Raddatz noted that portions of the grand jury report released last week indicated jurors believed some witnesses committed perjury.

According to former prosecutor Glenn Kirschner, special counsel Jack Smith should expand his investigation into the Jan. 6 insurrection by including Fox News for spreading election lies that helped incite the violence that occurred that day.

Appearing on "The Katie Phang Show," the attorney noted the text messages between high-profile Fox News hosts admitting they knew the election fraud claims were lies but spread them on-air anyway because it was helping with their ratings.

Conservative pundit Matt Lewis joined in the pile-on aimed at Fox News after a report was released showing hosts on the conservative network were totally aware that claims of 2020 election fraud from Donald Trump and some of his closest advisors were bogus yet promoted them on-air just the same.

In his column for the Daily Beast, the stalwart conservative, who briefly left the Republican Party over Trump, claimed he was taking a small measure of joy at the network being exposed, and called the Fox crew's subsequent new PR problem "delightfully pathetic."

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Thursday called to end Social Security and Medicare, and instead replace them with a "better deal" for younger Americans.

During an interview on Fox News, Pence was asked about his plan for entitlements like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid.

During an event at the conservative Heritage Foundation, Hawley was interrupted when an activist walked onto the stage.

On Thursday, Cortes blasted Haley's qualifications on Steve Bannon's War Room podcast.

Newsmax correspondent James Rosen used his time at an official White House briefing on Tuesday to ask if President Joe Biden is "woke."

Rosen posed the question after first asking White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre if Biden was an effective communicator.
