Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson are holding a big press conference at Mar-a-Lago on Friday where they will reportedly propose a bill that was already passed 28 years ago in 1996.

According to USA Today, the men will demand passage of a bill that would prevent immigrants from voting in an election. The problem is that this is already a law on the books.

An ongoing false claim from former President Donald Trump about the Russia investigation may have had the unintended consequence of dismantling a longstanding surveillance program that was a threat to American civil liberties, analyst Hayes Brown wrote for MSNBC on Thursday.

Specifically, Trump's "Spygate" claims that his campaign was illegally snooped on by federal authorities led him to demand the expiration of the wrong statute, and now the passage of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) reauthorization is up in the air as a small group of House Republicans are joining all Democrats to oppose it.

A major newspaper mixed up Donald Trump's name for O.J. Simpson's in an obituary for the NFL star-turned-accused murderer.

The Los Angeles Times used the former president's name in a prewritten obituary, which media outlets typically have at the ready for celebrities, political figures and other noteworthy individuals, instead of using Simpson's name in a published version that was quickly corrected.

A lawsuit filed in Georgia seeks to recover a $100,000 donation to Rudy Giuliani's legal defense fund. The donation came from Matthew Martorano, a Donald Trump supporter accused of participating in an online skincare product scam.

The lawsuit alleges that the donation should be returned to victims of the alleged fraud, according to CNBC. Martorano's software was accused of helping the scammers hide the number of chargebacks they received, which is a sign of potential fraud.

Rep. Matt Gaetz's "firebrand" reputation is being questioned by a self-described "good-natured midwesterner" journalist who greeted the Florida Republican with a "Congressman, hi!" then watched him run away.

Atlantic staff writer Elaine Godfrey Thursday shared her strange chase after Gaetz in a lengthy profile that spends much of its time detailing the firebrand's frantic flight from a reporter with questions.

The campaign of Donald Trump — who skipped every GOP primary debate — has written to the Commission on Presidential Debates asking that they arrange to increase the amount planned before the election, Washington Post reporter Josh Dawsey reported on Thursday.

Though he did town hall events with CNN and Fox News, he refused to take part in any debates with his Republican competitors for the nomination.

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell lashed out at the Republican National Committee for encouraging early voting and ballot harvesting.

During his Wednesday night show on FrankSpeech, Lindell said RNC attorney Charlie Spies might discourage Arizona Republicans from filing a brief supporting his Supreme Court case against voting machines.

Steve Bannon’s attempt to talk up a Donald Trump “secretive scheme” on the campaign trail blew up in his face when he exposed a large lie instead, according to a new political analysis.

“Bannon no doubt thought he was being deviously clever,” Greg Sargent wrote for the The New Republic Thursday.

Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones is finally facing an investigation into his role as a fake elector for former President Donald Trump in 2020.

The fake electors scheme, in which several Trump partisans signed paperwork falsely declaring themselves their states' legitimate electors, is a major piece of Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' sprawling racketeering case against Trump and his allies.

Former President Donald Trump spoke out Thursday against the dangers to personal safety, and democracy, that arise when criminal court judges are publicly targeted by powerful people.

Trump — who has been hit with gag orders from three judges who said his character attacks triggered a barrage of violence threats against them and others — was condemning the Justice Department and President Joe Biden, whom he accused of harassing Judge Aileen Cannon.

During a segment on the Fox News show The Five, Jessica Tarlov pushed back against fellow host Jeanine Pirro who claimed that Donald Trump isn't scared to go to prison.

Tarlov, who's generally presented as a liberal voice on the show, was addressing Trump's recent comments in which he called President Joe Biden a "threat to democracy," saying that such a characterization is "complete insanity" in light of his actions on Jan. 6, adding that he's doing “his darnedest” to not show up to the courtrooms as he’s “definitely afraid of what’s going to happen there.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) will travel to Mar-a-Lago as he faces a leadership threat from Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), and Donald Trump's inner circle is indicating they're not thrilled with the drama.

The Georgia Republican filed a motion to vacate last month that so far has not come up for a vote, and Trump insiders aren't happy that Greene has threatened to throw the House back into chaos in a presidential election year, risking the GOP's chances of keeping Congress and retaking the White House and Senate, reported Politico Playbook.

Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) revealed Thursday that his investigators had spoken with a so-called whistleblower who formerly worked in Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis' office.

Jordan made the remarks during an interview with Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo after the Washington Free Beacon first reported on the former staffer.
