Joe Biden

Former President Donald Trump appears to believe that he has been indicted again.

Fulton County, Georgia's grand jury released ten indictments as part of their work that included an investigation into the 2020 election overthrow attempts. Ten indictments don't mean ten people, and no people were cited as being indicted yet, but clearly, the Trump campaign thinks he is among them.

Former Georgia Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan warned that former President Donald Trump is leading the GOP to ruin on CNN Monday — and the party has to move beyond him to do anything constructive.

This comes after Duncan gave testimony to the Fulton County grand jury ahead of the indictment vote, and after Trump tried to intimidate him out of doing so on social media.

Republicans in the House are so worried about their narrow majority they're warning members not to do any activities that could endanger themselves, Punchbowl's Jake Sherman said on Monday.

House Majority Whip Tom Emmer (R-MN) told Republicans on a caucus conference call, "Please take care of yourselves. We do not need to lose anybody else."

Donald Trump’s use of incendiary rhetoric is nothing new – it started long before the former president’s arraignment earlier this month in the Jan. 6 election conspiracy case.

But Trump signed a pretrial release form that, at least on paper, should have eliminated the possibility that the former president’s propensity for trying to intimidate anyone standing in his way would be a factor in his legal proceeding.

Former President Donald Trump, according to polling, is the frontrunner in the crowded 2024 Republican presidential primary field. But party insiders are beginning to worry that Trump falling short "could spell a voter turnout disaster" come Election Day, The Hill's Alexander Bolton explains.

"GOP strategists say there's growing concern that if Trump is not the nominee, many of his core supporters, who are estimated to make up 25 percent to 35 percent of the party base, 'will take their ball and go home,'" increasing the odds that President Joe Biden secures a second term, Bolton writes.

Donald Trump on Monday continued to test a Washington D.C. federal judge who last week warned the former president against making “inflammatory” remarks against those in connection with his case.

Trump on his Truth Social website accused President Joe Biden of indicting him in his latest fiery post – and urged the country not to let it happen.

U.S. Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) is criticizing Republicans in the House and Senate over what he suggests is their "hypocrisy" after Attorney General Merrick Garland elevated David Weiss on Friday. Weiss is the Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney who was granted special counsel status to continue his investigation into Hunter Biden after Republicans specifically asked the Attorney General to do so.

"93 House Republicans last year called for Trump appointee David Weiss to be named special counsel. Now that he has been, they’re labeling their own recommendations as 'weaponization,'" Moscowitz said on social media, while suggesting they are taking orders from Donald Trump: "The hypocrisy is endless, but they must’ve received new instructions beamed from Truth Social."

Reuters is reporting that a two-page docket posted apparently accidentally on the Fulton County court's website showed multiple charges that could be filed against former President Donald Trump this week.

According to Reuters, the docket report, which was quickly deleted shortly after being posted, showed Trump indictments for charges including racketeering, conspiracy, and making false statements.

A private company aided by Republican "election integrity activists" is "attempting to sell software to Georgia election officials and residents that would enable them to aggressively cancel voter registrations," Mark Niesse reports in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Monday.

EagleAI's "software could be used by local governments as well as individuals who have challenged the eligibility of tens of thousands of voters since the 2020 presidential election," Niesse explains. "EagleAI's sales pitch has alarmed voting rights organizations that say it could be abused to attempt to disenfranchise legitimate voters."

On Monday morning, MSNBC host Joe Scarborough blasted Republican lawmakers who wanted a special counsel to investigate President Joe Biden's son Hunter, and then proceeded to flip out on Attorney General Merrick Garland for bestowing that status on the U.S. attorney who has already been investigating Hunter Biden.

On Friday Garland announced he was granting a request from David Weiss -- a Donald Trump appointee -- to be given special counsel status in an effort to continue his investigation.

That created a growing uproar among some vocal Republican critics who are still angry with Weiss for agreeing to a plea deal with the younger Biden.

As "Morning Joe" host Scarborough explained, there appears to be nothing that will please Republicans who want to make Hunter Biden a campaign issue in the 2024 election.

He then noted that all of their investigations under House Chairs James Comer (R-KY) and Jim Jordan (R-OH) have gone nowhere and they "keep making fools of themselves."

"So they have to keep that issue alive even though they keep making fools of themselves," he ranted. "Even though they say 'We don't care whether Hunter Biden is guilty or not, We don't care if there is anything on the tape that we are raising hell about or not. We've got a secret informant who ends up being an agent of China who ends up being an international fugitive -- who ended up being the guy who tried to illegally smuggle Iranian oil to the Communist Chinese party. An illegal arms trafficker.'"

"But they keep making fools of themselves and they ask for a special counsel and so they finally get what they want, they get their special counsel and they go, 'Oh no no, now we don't want that. I think the special counsel is a great idea."'

Colleagues of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) have become concerned about his increasing health issues, reported POLITICO on Monday.

This comes after McConnell, 81, has had at least three slip-and-fall accidents this year alone — he is a survivor of childhood polio and has dealt with minor mobility issues all his life — and after a peculiar incident in which he froze up for 20 seconds during a statement to reporters and needed to be escorted away from the podium temporarily by his fellow senators.
