Marjorie Taylor Greene

During an appearance on MSNBC on Saturday morning, former Watergate prosecutor Jill Wine-Banks advised the Republican party to think twice about making Donald Trump their 2024 presidential nominee when there is a reasonable chance the Supreme Court could make him ineligible to serve should he win.


Speaking with fill-in host Charles Coleman Jr., the legal analyst said she feels the decision by the Colorado Supreme Court that the former president should not be allowed to run for office based on the 14th Amendment is solid and that the Supreme Court would likely agree.

Having said that, she explained the GOP could be saddled with a candidate at the top of the ticket who would be barred from taking office if he should win in November.

"I just see this as a very clear case of fact and law, coming together, with no possible conclusion other than that he is not eligible to be on the ballot and he is not eligible to hold office," she told the MSNBC host. "So you might say he could be on the primary ballot because it's up to the states and the state political parties. but why put someone on the ballot who then could not be inaugurated, because he can't hold office?"

"That would be much worse to me, than taking him off the ballot, so that the people can choose from people who are qualified," she added.

'It seems to me that if you can bar someone who's not old enough or who is not a natural born citizen, or who hasn't lived in the United States long enough as a U.S. citizen, natural born, then you can also bar someone who doesn't meet the 14th Amendment, Section 3 qualification requirements," she later added.

Donald Trump's drive to round up as many GOP delegates as part of a legal strategy in his battle with U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia Judge Tanya Chutkan is unlikely to persuade her to go easy on him.

That is the opinion of a former prosecutor when asked if Trump is a guaranteed lock for the 2024 presidential nomination would that bolster his argument that his prosecution is politically motivated.

According to a report from the Messenger's Marc Caputo, the former president is frantically trying to add to his committed delegate total before his Washington, D.C., trial over alleged 2020 election interference begins as part of a wide-ranging defense strategy.

While special counsel Jack Smith is endeavoring to keep the former president and his legal team from pushing election interference conspiracies before the jury, Trump reportedly believes it will help him in the court of public opinion.

Caputo is reporting one Trump insider explaining, “The closer to the election this gets, the more pressure there is and the more people will see the politics. Judge Chutkan said she doesn’t care about Trump’s status as a candidate. This hasn’t worked. But if that trial date moves, will she be so steadfast in pursuit of a verdict and ignore the reality of an impending election? What does Jack Smith do?”

In the middle of the night, Donald Trump took to his Truth Social account to issue a warning to his own party and then attack Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY).

After days of lashing out at prosecutors involved in his multiple criminal trials and posting screenshots of polls showing him beating his GOP opposition for the 2024 presidential nomination, the former president took his own party to task and worried that the influx of immigrants will hurt the Republican Party's prospects.

Pouncing on the border crisis, Trump claimed "Crazed Democrats" are allowing "millions and millions" of immigrants to flood the country — and then put the blame on Republican McConnell.

During an appearance on MSNBC's "Morning Joe," former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade was asked about a decision on Thursday by Maine's secretary of state to bar Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot and how the Supreme Court will react to it.

Speaking with host Willie Geist, McQuade praised Secretary of State Shenna Lee Bellows for her reading of the 14th Amendment and use of testimony from the House select committee on the Jan. 6 riot to arrive at her decision.

Donald Trump's legal team has been attempting to stall various legal proceedings against him, but an expert said the former president would be wise to allow one of them to proceed.

The ex-president has been indicted four times on 91 counts and found liable for both fraud and sexual abuse, although his lawyers are working to push trial dates in those criminal cases past the 2024 election. But MSNBC legal analyst Danny Cevallos told "Morning Joe" that Trump would be smart to go ahead and face trial in Manhattan.

GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley's Wednesday night gaffe where she neglected to name "slavery" as a cause of the Civil War is "worse" given that she removed the Confederate flag from the South Carolina capitol during her time as governor.

At a campaign event in New Hampshire, Haley was asked by a voter identified only as "Patrick" by CBS News, what the cause of the Civil War was.

An attempt to generate support and pity just 13 days before she has to turn herself in to serve the prison phase of her almost 93-month sentence on nine counts related to the Jan. 6 riot did not go well for the unapologetic insurrectionist known as the "Bullhorn Lady."

Just days after Christmas, Rachel Powell, a mother of eight from Western Pennsylvania, took to X to assert she has no "criminal history" — despite her conviction in July for the attack on the Capitol where she was filmed hacking at a window with an ice axe.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) is switching congressional districts in a move her GOP detractors call a "desperate stunt" to avoid losing her seat in Congress.

The Colorado Republican announced Wednesday she would run in the state’s 4th congressional district, after serving two terms in the 3rd district — and her GOP primary rivals pounced on her move to replace the retiring Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO), reported the Sentinel.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) has called on Congress to talk with embalmers to prove a theory about the COVID-19 vaccines being dangerous.

In a Thursday social media post, Greene shared an interview from the right-wing Real America's Voice network that claimed embalmers are finding "fibrous clots" in dead bodies.

For a second week in a row, former co-host of "The View" Meghan McCain complained about something Ana Navarro said during a pre-Christmas appearance on the show.

The discussion earlier this month was about Hunter Biden and the way some people use their name for "influence-peddling."

The Democratic mayors of New York City, Denver and Chicago have come together to place restrictions on when and where migrant buses from Texas and Florida can arrive. The regulations have been made in order to be able to provide help to the passengers.

The mayors came together on a joint video call to announce new regulations. Eric Adams of New York issued an executive order requiring 32 hours' notice of the arrival of a bus with migrants, according to the New York Times. Adams' order also requires migrant buses only go to certain locations in the city and only during the workweek between the times of 8:30 a.m. and 12 p.m.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) may not win her election after switching Colorado congressional districts, but her move should help Republicans hold onto the seat she's vacating.

The controversial congresswoman barely won re-election last year, and her Democratic opponent Adam Frisch has far outraised her this year for their rematch — but now he will instead face a GOP opponent who does not have the same baggage that Boebert will carry with her to the 4th congressional district, reported Politico.
