Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) insisted she achieved a "great victory" after her effort to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) was overwhelmingly defeated.

During a Thursday interview, right-wing podcast host Steve Bannon reminded Greene she had been booed by her colleagues when she brought the "motion to vacate" to the House floor on Wednesday.

Former President Donald Trump's attorneys on Thursday tried to get under adult film star Stormy Daniels' skin -- but legal reporter Adam Klasfeld says that those efforts were largely unsuccessful.

While watching Daniels undergo hostile cross-examination during the former president's Manhattan hush-money trial, Klasfeld observed that "Daniels is a lot more confident, wry, and controlled during this cross-examination than when her testimony first began.

The public airing of sordid details of Donald Trump's alleged wooing of adult film star Stormy Daniels, while his wife was at home with a newborn, is an extraordinary change in fortune for a man who has long used and misused women.

That is the opinion of political commentator Molly Jong-Fast in a column for MSNBC, in which she noted the former president is seeing the tables being turned on him in real-time, coinciding with the aftereffects of his presidency increasing harm to women.

Donald Trump's attorney Susan Necheles was dogged in her pursuit of Stormy Daniels on the witness stand Thursday — and experts warned her approach could backfire.

In day 14 of Trump's trial over charges that he falsified business records involving a hush money deal with Daniels in 2016, Necheles hammered Daniels on everything from discrepancies about whether they ate dinner during a tryst to what was, and wasn't, the adult movie star's signature.

MANHATTAN CRIMINAL COURT — Adult film star Stormy Daniels may have scored a major point in former President Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial as his lawyer pursued a line of questioning that accomplished "nothing," legal experts said Thursday.

Trump attorney Susan Necheles hammered Daniels with repeated questions trying to disprove one small detail of the adult film star's account of her sexual encounter with Trump in 2006: that she never ate dinner.

CNN's Anderson Cooper on Thursday struggled to politely describe Stormy Daniels' latest testimony in former President Donald Trump's hush-money trial.

During a contentious exchange on the stand, Daniels was asked about old social media posts she made in which she belittled and ridiculed Trump.

Adult film actress Stormy Daniels clashed with Susan Necheles, Donald Trump's attorney, over whether she told a "phony" story about having sex with the former president.

On the second day of Daniels' cross-examination in Trump's hush money trial, tensions rose in the courtroom as Necheles confronted the actress about her claim that she had sex with Trump in a hotel room.

Stormy Daniels appeared in court again Thursday as cross-examination took a testy turn — and analysts said Donald Trump had a specific aim.

The former president's attorney, Susan Necheles, questioned Daniels and asked about repeated denials by her of an allegeged sexual relationship — which she has since gone into lurid details of in her testimony. On Tuesday, Daniels said she made the denials to comply with a non-disclosure agreement.

MANHATTAN CRIMINAL COURT — Stormy Daniels earned kudos from legal experts who applauded the deft way she responded to brusque questioning from former President Donald Trump's attorney Susan Necheles Thursday.

“You’re trying to trick me into saying something that’s not entirely true," Daniels snapped at Necheles during a line of questioning about contract agreements.

Donald Trump made a transactional offer that reportedly "stunned" top oil executives at an event last month at his Mar-a-Lago resort.

One executive complained about environmental regulations they continued to face despite spending $400 million to lobby President Joe Biden's administration, and the former president pitched what some attendees perceived as a blunt and transactional offer, reported the Washington Post.

Reacting to reports that attorneys for Donald Trump plan to aggressively go after adult film star Stormy Daniels as she takes the stand again in the Manhattan hush money trial, a former federal prosecutor appearing on CNN suggested it would be a strategic misfire.

According to Jennifer Rogers, who formerly served as the Chief of the Organized Crime Unit in the Southern District of New York, harassing the adult film star and asking her more about her interactions with Trump will be detrimental to the former president's case.

Former President Donald Trump attacked Jewish Americans who voted for President Joe Biden on Thursday.

Before heading into his Manhattan hush-money trial, Trump complained to reporters after Biden said he would not provide Israel with offensive weapons if it invaded the city of Rafah in Gaza.

MANHATTAN CRIMINAL COURT — Former President Donald Trump's lawyer was immediately shut down Thursday morning at the onset of her cross-examination of adult film star Stormy Daniels.

Susan Necheles hit a brusque tone when she demanded of Daniels, "You recall you did an interview and said the claims you had sex with President Trump was bull----?"
