Former California Lt. Gov. Abel Maldonado, a staunch supporter of former President Donald Trump, clashed with CNN's Anderson Cooper on Wednesday as he tried to go after the character of decorated generals who served under the former president and, like many other former Trump administration officials, have now come out against him as unfit to lead.

"Speaking on General Milley, he was like, you stated he was standing with him next to the Bible and so forth and —" began Maldonado.

Georgia Republicans lashed out after a judge smacked down seven election rule changes as "illegal, unconstitutional and void."

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox found the rules violated state laws, including one that would have required county election officials to conduct a “reasonable inquiry” into election results and another that would have required officials to hand-count ballots.

MSNBC host Chris Hayes shredded Fox News host Bret Baier on Wednesday night for playing a “selectively edited clip” of former President Donald Trump during his interview with Kamala Harris – which the vice president and social media users also criticized.

“Breit Baier came at Kamala Harris with every attack in the Trump playbook, including one moment where he got caught using an edited sound bite of Trump,” Hayes said as he began his show “All In” just hours after Harris’ first formal interview with Fox News aired as a “special report” on the network.

If Vice President Kamala Harris slips in support with Black men, as some polls have warned, there are a few factors that could be behind it, New York Times columnist Charles Blow wrote in a lengthy analysis Wednesday.

Blow remains skeptical that the shift in the polls, which has prompted urgent calls to arms from key leaders like former President Barack Obama, is capturing a real phenomenon, and even so, Harris is certain to win Black men overall — but in his anecdotal experience, he has run into some Black men who have grown frustrated with the Democratic Party, and there are multiple reasons for it.

With 19 days until Election Day, Donald Trump allies are concerned that X owner Elon Musk's efforts to "boost turnout" for the ex-president are "failing in critical battleground states," according to an exclusive Wednesday Rolling Stone report.

Three sources tell the publication that some of the former president's allies have told Trump directly that some Republicans "partly blame the group’s lead strategists, who are linked to the failed 2024 primary run of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis."

One of the strongest moments Kamala Harris had during her often confrontational interview with Fox News on Wednesday came when the vice president forcefully defended democracy and hit back at Donald Trump’s increasingly dark rhetoric, according to a New York Times reporter and CNN contributor.

Lulu Garcia-Navarro made the analysis shortly after Harris appeared in her first formal interview with Fox News in the battleground state of Pennsylvania, which Garcia-Navarro said went “really good.”

Vice President Kamala Harris found herself under heavy fire from the word go when she sat for an interview with Fox News host Bret Baier, who pressed her on everything from immigration to transgender rights to the economy and sought to soften Trump's threats to use the military on his political opponents when Harris broached the subject.

But while Harris knew she was in unfriendly territory going on the nation's largest right-leaning cable network, she had a very distinct plan going into it, CNN media analyst Brian Stelter said on a panel afterward.

A judge has smacked down a slew of election rule changes passed by a Donald Trump-backed board in Georgia, according to a report.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Thomas Cox found the rules violated state laws, including one that would have required county election officials to conduct a “reasonable inquiry” into election results and another that would have required officials to hand-count ballots.

Kamala Harris pushed back Wednesday evening during a Fox News interview when the network’s chief political anchor played a clip of Donald Trump that was set up after the vice president spoke about the dangers of Trump’s “enemy of the people” rhetoric.

“He’s the one who talks about an enemy within – an enemy within – talking about the American people, suggesting he would turn the American military on the American people,” Harris told host Bret Baier in an interview that aired Wednesday, her first formal interview with the network.

Vice President Kamala Harris sat for a tense and confrontational interview with Fox News host Bret Baier, during which they clashed on topics including immigration, President Joe Biden's fitness for office and former President Donald Trump's threats against his political opponents.

The interview marked Harris' first on the network and was part of a broader media circuit as she tries to reach voters who may have seen little of her. The interview generated a strong reaction from commenters on social media — many of whom were stunned by the way Baier constantly tried to talk over her and steer the conversation in favor of pro-Trump talking points.

Donald Trump gave a rambling answer when a migrant farmer who was born in Mexico and now lives in the United States asked him at a town hall Wednesday who would do that job if he followed through with threats of mass deportation.

Trump repeated campaign talking points to an audience member at the Univision town hall that African American and Hispanic populations are losing jobs because “tremendous numbers” of illegal immigrants are coming into the country from mental institutions, insane asylums and jails.

As soon as Vice President Kamala Harris' interview with Fox News host Bret Baier began, the two sparred on the topic of immigration — with Harris reminding Baier that the Biden administration fought for a comprehensive border security solution only for former President Donald Trump to work behind the scenes to kill it.

"When you came into office, your administration immediately reversed a number of Trump border policies," said Baier, specifically noting the Remain in Mexico policy. "Looking back, do you regret the decision to terminate Remain in Mexico at the beginning of your administration?"
