The conversation got heated Wednesday as The View hosts former federal prosecutor Sunny Hostin and ex-Donald Trump staffer Alyssa Farah Griffin debated special counsel Robert Hur's testimony before Congress on Tuesday.

Hur had been questioned about his report into classified documents improperly found in the possession of President Joe Biden.

During a segment on CNN this morning, legal analyst Elie Honig ripped into Fulton County D.A. Fani Willis and her conduct surrounding the election interference case she brought against Donald Trump, saying that her multiple "screwups" have "setback" the case.

Honig was addressing Wednesday's news that six charges had been dismissed in the Georgia racketeering case after Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee determined that they failed to give "sufficient detail regarding the nature of their commission."

Financial Times columnist Edward Luce on Wednesday took stock of former President Donald Trump's third White House run — and found that much of its shock value had worn off.

However, Luce cautioned that Trump has not gotten any less shocking than he was eight years ago, and he noted that over the last week Trump made inflammatory statements and took several alarming actions that, for any other candidate, would be on the front page of every major American newspaper.

Donald Trump lavished praise on Peter Navarro Wednesday as his former White House adviser prepared to report to prison after being convicted of contempt of Congress.

The former president urged his supporters to preorder Navarro's book, due out in July from the MAGA imprint Winning Time, just days before the former economic adviser is expected to report to a Miami prison on March 19 for refusing to comply with a congressional investigation into the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Attorneys for Hunter Biden said that their client will not appear at a public hearing on the impeachment of his father, President Joe Biden.

In a letter to House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY), attorney Abbe Lowell said there was a scheduling conflict with a criminal case.

An Illinois man charged with firing a gun at the January 6 insurrection is "mind-numbingly dangerous" and must be held in detention ahead of trial, federal prosecutors warned in a new filing.

John Banuelos was charged last Friday, two years after an NBC News investigation into his identity. While many January 6 defendants were charged with using dangerous weapons against police, and some were accused of bringing firearms to D.C., Banuelos is the first to be accused of actually firing a gun during the riot itself.

Christine Blasey Ford is breaking her silence on U.S. Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh for the first time since he was confirmed in spite of her sexual assault allegations.

The research psychologist from northern California came forward during Kavanaugh's confirmation battle to accuse the federal judge of sexually assaulting her decades prior, when both were high school students. Her new memoir due next week reveals why she believes the conservative justice is unqualified to hold his esteemed position, according to excerpts published by The Guardian.

Judge Scott F. McAfee eliminated some of the Fulton County election interference charges against Donald Trump on Wednesday, and some legal analysts believe that gives a clear hint about how he will rule on disqualifying District Attorney Fani Willis.

Over the past several weeks, Trump's co-defendants have tried to have Willis removed from the case against Trump because she had a relationship with a lead prosecutor.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee dismissed six of the 41 counts that had been filed in the Rico case facing Donald Trump and his defendants in the Georgia election interference case.

"The Defendants challenge Counts 2, 5, 6, 23, 28, and 38 of the indictment by way of special demurrer," McAfee wrote in a ruling on Wednesday. "The ultimate purpose is to put the Defendant on notice and protect against double jeopardy."

A fellow Republican accused former Arizona Republican Party Chairwoman Kelli Ward of assault during the state party’s January meeting at a Phoenix church.

According to a police report obtained by the Arizona Mirror, Ward is accused of hitting a woman who criticized Ward’s involvement at the meeting, as she was no longer the party chair.

South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem shot and shared a five-minute informercial for an out-of-state dentist who repaired her teeth, and panelists on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" had a lot of questions.

The Republican governor promoted the Houston-based cosmetic dental practice Smile Texas, where she got veneers to repair her teeth damaged in a bicycle wreck, and the advertisement raised questions about the propriety of an elected official appearing in an advertisement without disclosing details involving payment.

Following the Republican National Committee's takeover by Trump loyalists, the party will be shuttering a heavily-touted program designed to boost minority engagement.

In the wake of some modest gains with Hispanic voters in 2020, the GOP invested millions in a major program they promised would help them communicate with nonwhite voters in swing states like Georgia and Arizona and grow these gains — but flash forward to today, and the whole thing is being canceled.
