Some House Democrats proved willing this week to honor former President Donald Trump's legacy with the official dedication of a government building in his name: a Florida federal prison.

Reps. Gerry Connolly (D-VA) and Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) on Friday will introduce legislation to rename Federal Correctional Institution, Miami — where Trump's former adviser Peter Navarro is currently incarcerated — as the Donald J. Trump Federal Correctional Institution, according to CBS News' congressional correspondent Scott MacFarlane.

One of the key architects of Donald Trump's effort to overturn the 2020 election spoke out on a judge's recommendation that he lose his law license in California due to “serious ethical violations.”

State Bar Court of California Judge Yvette Roland said attorney John Eastman should be disbarred for making false claims, such as the notion that then-Vice President Mike Pence had the power to refuse to certify the election's results.

The Nation's legal analyst and opinion writer Elie Mystal unleashed on former Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer for expressing a desire to see justices on the court be friends with one another.

Breyer penned a column for the New York Times this week where he looked back fondly on an easier time when justices could disagree and still have honor and respect.

As Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) prayed Friday that America would heed God's warning that had been supposedly been delivered by a relatively minor earthquake, many other Americans prayed someone would tell her about science.

Greene issued a stern warning on social media Friday after a magnitude 4.8 earthquake rumbled east coast cities from Philadelphia to Boston and three days before a solar eclipse is slated to cross over the northern hemisphere.

The far-right House Freedom Caucus is threatening to derail any federal funding legislation to rebuild the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore that was destroyed last week in a deadly accident. Their statement comes ahead of President Joe Biden's planned trip to visit the wreckage Friday afternoon, where he will deliver remarks scheduled for 2:30 PM ET.

The pro-MAGA nationalist group, chaired by U.S. Rep. Bob Good (R-VA) (photo), who is fighting to retain his congressional seat, issued a statement demanding the insurance from "foreign shipping companies" should pay all costs to rebuild, before the federal government even "considers" appropriating any additional funds, rather than have the federal government be reimbursed by insurance.

Supporters of former President Donald Trump are pumping money into Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s presidential campaign, according to a new report.

Steve and Tracy Slepcevic are the subject of an in-depth Mother Jones investigation into the gray political area between Kennedy and Trump where anti-vaccination, QAnon followers and Christian nationalists lurk.

According to CNN legal analyst Elie Honig, the pool of potential jurors who will sit in judgment during Donald Trump's hush money trial will not be to his liking when the court finally convenes.

Now that New York Supreme Court Judge Juan Merchan has dispensed with all of the former president's lawyers' filings to delay the trial — or toss out the charges filed by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg — jury selection is expected to begin on April 15.

A California bank, along with its largest individual shareholder, has doled out over $500 million in financing that has benefited Donald Trump by helping him pay off debts and even helped him make a profit off a lease on his cash-strapped former Washington hotel.

Axos Bank and California billionaire Don Hankey have also helped Trump cover the $175 million bond on his civil fraud judgement, the Associated Press reported this Friday.

Anyone who bought shares of President Donald Trump's Truth Social parent company late last week is seriously hurting right now, as they have lost roughly a third of their value in just the last five days.

Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank, however, believes that the crash of Truth Social shares was entirely predictable given the past ways that past Trump business ventures have ended.

Top Lawfare editor Roger Parloff doesn't buy the argument that special counsel Jack Smith can have Judge Aileen Cannon removed using the legal tactic called "mandamus."

Several legal experts argued that Cannon's refusal to rule on several motions violated her duty as a judge. When Cannon ruled over the Presidential Records Act (P.R.A.) on Thursday, she said that, for now, she is dismissing Trump's defense before the trial. She said that she reserves the right to bring it back up during the trial.

Rep. Bob Good (R-VA), the chair of the House Freedom Caucus, is begging House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) to save his job.

This comes as he faces a credible primary threat from retired Navy SEAL and far-right Virginia state Sen. John McGuire, who attended former President Donald Trump's "Stop the Steal" rally on the National Mall that coincided with the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Former Biden family business partner Tony Bobulinski made good on his warning from last month where he said he planned to sue Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) over an X post from the lawmaker accusing Bobulinski of making false statements.

On March 21, Goldman took to X and wrote, "Tony Bobulinski has used a Trump campaign-paid lawyer to make false allegations since October 2020. When Cassidy Hutchinson said he met with Mark Meadows with a mask on, he called her a liar. Then she produced a photo."

The latest jobs report showed another month of enormous growth, with over 300,000 new jobs created, far above the expected number of 200,000 — and Fox News' Maria Bartiromo struggled to find a negative spin to put on things.

Ultimately, she told viewers that the economy was probably "too" good.
