Online critics are pointing out glaring oversights after the Republican National Convention posted the schedule for President Donald Trump's midterm convention.

On Tuesday, a schedule made the rounds on social media that showed that Trump and Vice President JD Vance will headline the first night of the convention in Dallas on September 9, with Trump coming back to headline on September 10 as well. The two-day event has already been plagued by reports of the GOP dreading the event and fearing tiny crowds.

"Going way out on a limb to say this is going to suck," wrote Democratic political strategist Addisu Demissie in a post on X. "And I actually have some experience in this area!"...

A Trump biographer flagged how a secret call Donald Trump made to an NFL owner ties him to Epstein's Palm Beach world.

During an episode of Inside Trump's Head, Trump biographer Michael Wolff explained how Trump made a call to get New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft off the hook after he was caught in a massage parlor sting in 2019.

"This would be in the first administration," Wolff explained. "His friend Bob Kraft, who owns the New England Patriots, is in trouble because he's been busted for frequenting Korean massage parlors in Palm Beach, and it's not a good moment for Bob."...

Several former NFL players are among a growing number of people calling out the White House for using their images in Trump administration videos trying to sell Americans on the war in Iran, according to a Washington Post report on Thursday.

Far-right Trump strategist Stephen Miller's wife invited the co-owner of the Dallas Cowboys onto her podcast to talk about a Super Bowl controversy that has become a hot-button issue for the MAGA movement, reported the Daily Beast — and she didn't get the answer she was likely hoping for.

Katie Miller turned her discussion with Charlotte Jones, who also serves as the Cowboys' chief brand officer, to Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican rap artist who will be delivering the Super Bowl's halftime show — a move that has enraged Trump supporters both because he will be performing in Spanish, and because he has been outspoken against Immigration and Customs Enforcement mass deportation operations around the country.

Jones, however, did not take the bait....

A "sneer of disgust" from Donald Trump during his recent NFL game attendance could be a sign he is "struggling," an expert on body language said Tuesday.

Judi James told The Mirror US the president was not expecting the negative reception he received during his attendance of a Washington Commanders match at the weekend. Trump was booed by the crowd at the Commanders' match against the Detroit Lions, and the "sneer of disgust" he responded with could be a sign that he didn't know how to deal with it.

James said, "Trump tries a range of contrasting non-verbal responses from his repertoire here, but the way they occur in a short space of time suggests he’s struggling....

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump’s demand the Washington Commanders NFL team revert to its recently retired “Redskins” name is being laughed off on Capitol Hill — by veteran Democrats from the region, at least.

“We already went through that battle,” Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA) told Raw Story as he was hopping an elevator in the Capitol.

“Let’s stick with what the team’s name is.” ...
