With new figures stating that Trump now sits at 33 percent with voters, with Haley within striking distance at 29 percent, the embattled former president lashed out at what he called the "fake poll" and, once again, slurred his former U.N. ambassador as "Birdbrain."

"FAKE NEW HAMPSHIRE POLL WAS RELEASED ON BIRDBRAIN. JUST ANOTHER SCAM!" he wrote.

As she closes the gap in the polls between herself and Donald Trump, former Gov. Nikki Haley's bid to become the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nominee is facing more scrutiny — including on a recent 11-month period where she made an estimated $2.5 million.

According to a report from the Washington Post, Haley stepped down as Trump's U.N. ambassador in late 2018, not long after a process server attempted to serve her with papers at the United Nations building over the foreclosure of her parents’ lake house on which she was listed as a defendant.

Many supporters of former President Donald Trump don't just like him for his policy ideas.

Rather, as a new report from the Boston Globe makes clear, they think he was literally chosen by God to lead the United States.

Three years after the Capitol riot, extremists are still pushing the conspiracy theory that many of the rioters were actually Antifa agents dressed as Trump supporters in a false flag operation to frame the right.

But those claims are being debunked as those Jan. 6 rioters are getting arrested and their identities revealed, NBC News reported Friday.

Legal and political experts are responding to Thursday night's bombshell news of secret recordings of then-President Donald Trump, two weeks after the 2020 election, allegedly personally pressuring two Wayne County, Michigan election officials to not certify the results for Joe Biden. It "sounds like a classic case of bribery," says one expert, and is being called a "huge, systemic plot" to "seize power despite losing an election," by another.

"We've got to fight for our country," Trump told the two officials, called "canvassers," in the November 17, 2020 recordings, according to The Detroit News which broke the story. "We can't let these people take our country away from us."

The town of Huntington Beach, California is mulling a ban on celebrations centered on women, as well as on Black and LGBTQ Americans.

The Guardian reports that the ban would impact celebrations such as Pride Month in June and Black History Month in February, as it would ban groups commemorating such events from using town property.

When the Colorado Supreme Court ruled that former President Donald Trump is ineligible for the state's 2024 Republican presidential primary ballot, the other candidates were quick to rush to his defense.

The justices, in a 4-3 decision, ruled that he is disqualified from running for president in the state under Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment. Section 3 states that an "officer" who has engaged in "insurrection" cannot run for office, and the justices believe he did that when he tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election results despite the fact that now-President Joe Biden clearly won.

Reacting to reports that Republican National Committee chair Ronna McDaniels was on the phone call that Donald Trump made to election officials in Michigan to pressure them to not certify the 2020 election results, one law professor claimed she could be investigated for bribery for promising legal help if they complied.

Based on the recently unearthed phone call the former president made to officials Monica Palmer and William Hartmann, imploring them not to sign the election document, the RNC head is heard chiming in with, "If you can go home tonight, do not sign it. ... We will get you attorneys."

Georgia election board officials have asked the FBI to investigate a Texas activist who sent a series of emails demanding an investigation into the state's 2020 election, The Atlanta Journal Constitution reported.

Activists Kevin Moncla and Joe Rossi previously filed a claim saying there were errors in Fulton County's recount of the 2020 election ballots. During a hearing Tuesday, the State Election Board delayed taking up the case, which angered the activists and supporters of Donald Trump.

After Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) was ousted as House speaker, some Democrats worried that Republicans would nominate someone even further to the right — which is exactly what happened when Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) stepped up.

Johnson isn't known for being loud, boisterous or flamboyant — he has even been described as "soft spoken." But his history is hardly that of a moderate, and critics — including veteran Democratic strategist James Carville — are sounding the alarm about his long history of pushing far-right Christian nationalism.

The new recording of Donald Trump apparently pressuring Michigan canvassers not to certify the state’s 2020 election result is bombshell evidence that Jack Smith will waste no time grabbing, CNN legal expert Elie Honig said Friday.

“If prosecutors have not already done this, I assure you they’re knocking out subpoenas right now,” he said.

A newly unearthed phone call that Donald Trump made to Michigan officials in an attempt to get them to refuse to certify the 2020 presidential election is causing no small amount of grief within the former president's inner circle because they have a new fire to put out.

Late Thursday the Detroit News reported it had obtained a recording of the call where Trump and RNC head Ronna McDaniel proposed undermining the election results with McDaniel suggesting they would supply lawyers if needed.
