President Donald Trump just spilled the beans on why he won't cave to the demand of GOP senators holding up Todd Blanche's confirmation, MS NOW's Nicolle Wallace said on Friday.

"Donald Trump is saying the quiet part out loud today when it comes to exactly why Todd Blanche still has not put an official end to the almost $1.8 million slush fund that could potentially award payouts to January 6th insurrectionists," wrote Wallace — the major holdup of Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Thom Tillis (R-NC), and likely a number of other Republicans in the background.

President Donald Trump quietly restarted a court battle Thursday to save an IRS audit deal that is also blocking acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's confirmation.

Trump, his sons, and the Trump Organization filed the notice of appeal to the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, according to court records, challenging a July 13 ruling by U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams.

A Trump administration official pushing for "retribution" against the president's enemies was formally accused of committing assault inside a State Department elevator.

Gavin Wax, chief of staff to the State Department's undersecretary for public diplomacy and public affairs, is under formal investigation after a colleague filed a complaint accusing him of issuing a physical threat and shoving him inside an elevator at the agency's Washington headquarters, the Daily Mail reported.

President Donald Trump has been blocked at every turn by Sens. John Cornyn (R-TX) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) from appointing Todd Blanche as the permanent attorney general.

But their opposition is just the tip of the iceberg, conservative journalist David Drucker told MS NOW's Laura Barron-Lopez on "The Moment" Friday — and the first signs of a broader revolt brewing in the GOP.

President Donald Trump's decision to keep acting Attorney General Todd Blanche in his current position should be used in a third impeachment proceeding, according to a new column.

Longtime DC insider Michael Tomasky wrote that the president would rather leave the attorney general seat open with an acting administrator rather than agree to forgo his "slush fund" and IRS immunity deal in writing.

President Donald Trump has failed in his attempt to force a federal judge to recuse himself after a ruling against one of the president's plans to "disrupt" elections, court records and reports show.

U.S. District Judge Stanley A. Bastian, the chief district judge of the Eastern District of Washington and an appointee of former President Barack Obama, denied Trump's motion to remove him from the case on July 30. The case centers on Trump's decision to fire a court-appointed U.S. attorney less than an hour after he was sworn in. Bastian has repeatedly ruled against Trump, including in a case that would have impacted the 2020 election.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, the former Fox News personality and current ambassador to Greece, set off a firestorm of controversy just by sharing pictures of her visit to a monastery.

Guilfoyle posed in front of a row of clerics swathed in black at the Ormylia Monastery in Halkidiki — but the ambassador wore something quite different: a bright peacock blue form-fitting dress with a plunging neckline.

President Donald Trump's strange comment on the two assassination attempts he faced before his return to office raised serious concerns for Maggie Haberman, she admitted Friday.

Haberman told New York Times colleague Ezra Klein on Friday the sequence of events before the 2024 election has led Trump to make questionable connections in his mind — as the comment proved.
