Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) switched districts to improve her chances of keeping a seat in Congress — but she might have walked into more of a battle than she expected.

A straw poll conducted by Colorado Politics after the first debate of the election season in Colorado’s 4th district had her come in fifth among nine GOP candidates.

A new conservative conspiracy theory that the Super Bowl will be rigged to prop up Taylor Swift’s imminent endorsement of President Joe Biden is being torn to shreds by critics who call it “by far the dumbest.”

The Bulwark’s Sonny Bunch Monday took to X to vent frustrations over the strange theory — centered on Swift’s relationship with Kansas City Chiefs tight-end Travis Kelce — detailed in a new Rolling Stone report.

Donald Trump tried to take credit for the booming stock market more than three years after leaving office.

U.S. stocks set a record high for five straight days, following 12 winning weeks in the last 13, and the former president insisted in an all-caps post on Truth Social that he deserved the credit.

CNN's Briana Keilar on Monday got into a heated exchange with Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) over the Biden administration's Middle East policy, which he said was emboldening Iran to sign off on proxy attacks on American soldiers.

During an interview, Keilar argued to Waltz that figuring out how to deter Iran-backed proxies had plagued multiple administrations, including Trump's whose policies Waltz touted as a better alternative.

Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley praised a jury that found Donald Trump liable for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll.

During a Monday interview on Fox News, Haley stood firm on earlier comments about American juries after Trump was ordered to pay Carroll $83 million.

During a segment on The View this Monday, co-host and former Donald Trump communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin said the recent $83.3 million judgment against the former president from writer E. Jean Carroll's second defamation case has him "feeling like the walls are closing in."

Griffin attributed her speculation to the fact that she knows Trump "personally."

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is hoping for a bipartisan deal on military aid to Ukraine and border security that both House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and President Joe Biden will agree to.

But according to Politico reporters Jordain Carney and Burgess Everett, some allies of former President Donald Trump are doing everything they can to drive a wedge between McConnell and Johnson.

Ron DeSantis’ humiliating defeat in his presidential race against former President Donald Trump isn’t funny to the large group of Floridians who fear their governor’s return — and the entire nation should beware, a new political analysis contends.

Salon’s Chauncey Devega Monday issued a warning about the much-mocked Republican contender who rose to political stardom implementing far-right policies aimed to appease his ultra-conservative base.

Writer E. Jean Carroll, who last week won a second defamation suit against Donald Trump, says she plans to spend the $83.3 million in damages she was awarded in a way that causes "pain" to the former president, she said on ABC's Good Morning America Monday.

“If it’ll cause him pain for me to give money to certain things, that’s my intent," she said.

Former Internal Revenue Service contractor Charles Littlejohn on Monday was sentenced to five years in jail for leaking former President Donald Trump's taxes to the New York Times.

NBC News reports that Littlejohn, who pleaded guilty to illegal tax disclosure this past October, not only leaked Trump's tax documents, but also for Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.

Donald Trump could be within days of having his real estate empire ordered "dissolved" by a judge in a rarely used penalty for repeatedly lying on financial statements.

Nearly 70 years of cases under New York's powerful anti-fraud law shows that penalty has been imposed only a dozen previous times for scam marketers and con artists, and the former president's family business is the only large business threatened with getting shut down without showing obvious victims or major losses, according to an analysis by the Associated Press.

Should Donald Trump once again become president in 2024, close advisers hope to make changes to the Department of Justice's Office of Legal Counsel that would give him free rein to do as he pleases while in office without fear of ever being prosecuted, according to a report.

The exclusive story from Rolling Stone claims MAGA advisers are working with lawyers to tie the hands of the DOJ by making the independent OLC more beholden to Trump if he takes office again.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) has spent almost $210,000 on private charter flights for herself and her staff using taxpayer cash, according to a report from The Daily Beast.

"Given that senators have limited annual budgets to fund their operations, Sinema’s use of private flights also raises questions about why she is prioritizing that expense over other essential functions of her office," writes the The Beast's Sam Brodey.
