Former Biden Communications Director Kate Bedingfield on Monday tore into Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump for her attacks on Larry Hogan after he said that Americans should respect the guilty verdict leveled against former President Donald Trump.

Donald Trump shares a lot of similarities with Adolf Hitler, according to an expert on Nazi Germany.

The former president has reportedly praised Hitler for doing "some good things," and shared a video on social media dreaming of a "unified Reich" if he wins re-election. And Henk de Berg, a professor of German at the University of Sheffield in the United Kingdom, told The Guardian that he saw many similarities in the rhetorical strategies and self-promotion of Trump and the notorious German leader.

Conservative attorney and Never Trump activist George Conway has a fiery message for the people he says are going after his daughter.

"I don't make personal requests on here often, if ever.

Conservative Janelle King is the latest appointee to the Georgia State Board of Elections — and she's already causing questions about whether she intends to subvert democracy to ensure Donald Trump recaptures the state after he lost it in 2020.

King, however, claims that the allegations are unfounded and she hasn't had any contact with the Trump campaign, The Guardian reported Monday.

The Proud Boys, a right-wing gang that saw many of its leaders jailed for leading the January 6th riots at the United States Capitol building, is reportedly regaining strength ahead of the 2024 presidential election.

Texas Republicans have charted an extreme right-wing course that could sow the seeds of their own destruction — even as they seek to lock down permanent control of the state.

The party approved a 50-page platform last month that would require the Bible to be taught in public schools and place chaplains to offer guidance based on so-called Judeo-Christian principles, deport noncitizens who are legal residents of the U.S. if they're arrested in a protest that turns violent, reverse name changes to military bases honoring Confederate "heroes," and criminally charge doctors who perform abortions with homicide — all of which Washington Post columnist Karen Tumulty described as "hair-raising."

In 2016, the Rev. Darrell C. Scott — a fundamentalist Pentecostal minister in Cleveland's African-American community — expressed his skepticism about Donald Trump's presidential campaign. But in 2024, Scott is an outspoken Trump supporter who is urging other Blacks to vote for him.

Former President Donald Trump's embattled ally Rudy Giuliani, faced with bankruptcy and financial destitution, is reportedly drawing income from an unexpected source: A charity founded in memory of a firefighter killed in the September 11 attacks.

According to The New York Times, "In a filing last week, attorneys for Mr. Giuliani said that one of the former New York City mayor’s companies, Giuliani Communications, receives about $16,300 per month in income from his internet show 'America’s Mayor Live.' Mr. Giuliani’s attorney said that money comes 'mainly' from the Sept. 11 charity, the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation."
