Billionaire Elon Musk issued a call Thursday evening to free the law enforcement officer serving a 22-year sentence for murdering George Floyd, but in doing so was also accused of embracing a controversial far-right figure who has predicted the emergence of a new “superior” race of hyper-intelligent elites.

Posting on his social media platform X, Musk called for the release of Derek Chauvin, the police officer who killed Floyd in 2020 after kneeling on his neck for more than nine minutes. In the same online post, Musk shared a similar call issued by Nick Land, a controversial far-right British philosopher and key figure in the anti-democratic philosophy known as “Dark Enlightenment.”

House Democrats are already making plans to overwhelm President Donald Trump, his administration and his family with a tidal wave of investigations after the midterm election.

Anticipating flipping the chamber as the president's poll numbers drag his party down to depths never seen before, Democratic leaders told Politico that nothing "will be off the table" including impeachment hearings.

The White House is scrambling to prop up President Donald Trump's image as a figure of influence after a public gaffe spurred ripples of ridicule, according to a new report.

The gaffe was Sen. Darline Nordone's, the sister of the late Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-NC), who Trump has endorsed to replace her brother despite some setbacks that include her openness about her own lack of qualifications, CNN reported Friday.

MS NOW's Jen Psaki kicked off "The Briefing" on Thursday with pointed mockery at first lady Melania Trump's first public appearance in a month — and the reason why it had to be organized.

"There are a lot of times in the Trump era that we have to remind ourselves ... that what's happening is not in any way normal," said Psaki. And one of those many things, she said, is "for the first lady of the United States to have to come out and remind us all that she exists."

While President Donald Trump gilds horse statues and swaps out brick paver steps at the White House, dumpsters overflow and wildfires threaten remote parks across America, insiders told The Atlantic that the rot is only beginning.

The National Park Service now runs a three-tier funding scheme, according to documents and five current and former officials cited by The Atlantic's Michael Scherer. There's the untouchable "White House priorities" list, a "high priority" list, and a "low priority" pile where 1,573 projects languish. Many of those projects would have sailed through under past administrations, officials told the outlet.

Lifelong conservative and former Ronald Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan had a glum assessment of her party — and America at large — when it comes to President Donald Trump's corruption.

Writing for the Wall Street Journal, she said that the ways Trump has used his own office to perfect the "art of the self-deal" should be obvious and horrifying to everyone.
