Joe Biden

Fox News is auditioning hosts for its 7 PM "Fox News Primetime" show and on Thursday night longtime Fox contributor Tammy Bruce went full-force far right extremist to get the job.

Bruce is no stranger to controversy. In the mid-1990's she exited as president of the Los Angeles chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) after being accused of "racially insensitive comments." Later, during the first months of the Obama presidency she remarked, "We've got trash in the White House."

The pharmaceutical industry is targeting vulnerable Americans with predatory pricing that is forcing them to ration life-saving drugs, according to a three-year congressional probe released Friday.

Investigators focused on 10 drugmakers they accuse of raising prices of common brand-name drugs by nearly four times the rate of inflation over the past five years.

In an interview with Business Insider, a Texas realtor and "life coach" who has been sentenced to prison for participating in the Jan 6th insurrection aimed at keeping Donald Trump in power says she is studying up on prison culture before serving her sentence.

Jenna Ryan became one of the more prominent participants in the Capitol riot after flying with friends to Washington, D.C., in a private jet to protest the former president's loss to President Joe Biden.

Substantial majorities of Republicans believe Donald Trump had the 2020 election snatched away from him, and those voters are the most enthusiastic about casting ballots in next year's midterms.

Trump's claims about election fraud depressed turnout in a pair of Georgia runoff elections that gave Democrats a slim majority in the U.S. Senate, but those conspiracy theories now appear to be driving GOP enthusiasm, according to a recent CNN/SSRS poll.

On CNN Friday, Israeli reporter Barak Ravid discussed the falling out between former President Donald Trump and former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the latter's congratulation of Joe Biden — and suggested their relationship was never as close as they wanted people to think.

"I interviewed Trump twice, once in April and second time in July as part of my work on my book that just came out here in Israel," said Ravid. "And what was interesting in this interview is that it broke the myth that there was this bromance between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. And this was a myth that both politicians cultivated for their own domestic politics ... until today, everybody thought they were best friends. And from now on, it is clear this was bull."

Donald Trump's endorsed candidates have lost U.S. Senate campaigns in Alabama in three elections — and is once again seeing one of his hopefuls struggle.

In 2016, Rep. Mo Brooks (R-AL) slammed Trump for "serial adultery" and "gutter-mouth tendencies," vowing he would not endorse him even if he won the Republican nomination.

According to a report from the Daily Beast, former Georgia Sen. David Perdue's decision to challenge Gov. Brian Kemp in the 2022 midterm primary at Donald Trump's behest has Republicans in the state despairing that a "scorched earth" primary will hand the seat over to the Democrats.

Still bruised from losing both U.S. Senate seats in 2020 after run-offs that were conducted under the cloud of Trump complaining about election fraud and dampening turnout, Republicans fear his interference will cost them again.

An appeals court rejected Donald Trump's bid to keep his White House documents shielded from the House select committee, and MSNBC's Joe Scarborough said the ruling was especially "harsh" to the twice-impeached one-term president's efforts to undo his election loss.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit unanimously upheld a lower court's opinion that held President Joe Biden's decision to allow the documents' release, and the the "Morning Joe" host noted that the three-judge panel bluntly linked Trump to the Jan. 6 insurrection in their 68-page ruling.

At least 53 migrants were killed Thursday in Mexico after the truck they were hiding in hit a retaining wall and overturned in the southern state of Chiapas, a major transit point for those trying to reach the United States.

Another 58 people also were hurt, three of them seriously, according to a preliminary report from the prosecutors in Chiapas, which borders Guatemala.

On Thursday, at the global democracy summit, President Joe Biden gave a speech about preserving human rights that closely paraphrased the Declaration of Independence.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident," said Biden. "That all women and men are endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights, among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Democracy doesn't happen by accident. We have to renew it with every generation."

Former President Donald Trump is still very bitter that former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called President Joe Biden to congratulate him on his victory in the 2020 presidential election.

Forward senior political reporter Jacob Kornbluh brings word that a new book written by Israeli journalist Barak Ravid features an interview with Trump in which he confirms his rage at Netanyahu for recognizing Biden's victory.

A federal appeals court's decision Thursday rejecting former President Donald Trump's effort to keep Jan. 6 documents secret could be "the end of the road" for his executive privilege claims, according to former U.S. attorney Harry Litman.

"It's really big," Litman told MSNBC on Thursday afternoon. "They absolutely shut down Trump's claims."
