ABC News' Jonathan Karl this week warned that former President Donald Trump's vision for a second term would be far darker than even that of his first, which infamously ended with a deadly riot at the United States Capitol.

While talking with anti-Trump conservative Bill Kristol, Karl outlined how Trump's 2016 campaign, while dark, at least made gestures toward building a prosperous America.

Special counsel Jack Smith likely seized a broad amount of information related to former Donald Trump's Twitter account.

A redacted search warrant unsealed this week showed the large swath of data Smith's team ordered Twitter to hand over that could be related to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The existence of the search warrant was first revealed earlier this year after media organizations sued.

President Joe Biden has a problem with younger voters, and some of them are turning to Donald Trump, according to a new report.

New polling finds the current president trailing the former president in key battleground states, and voters are being seen not to be receptive to Biden's messaging on the economy or the threat Trump poses to democracy and reproductive rights, reported The Bulwark columnist A.B. Stoddard.

One of Donald Trump's former staffers is joining the chorus of voices saying the ex-president is in cognitive decline.

Trump in recent days has tried to scramble to explain away some of his mistaken references during speeches and interviews over the past several months, including repeated instances where he seems to think that former President Barack Obama is still in the Oval Office.

When voters go to the polls in the upcoming presidential election, there's a very good chance Donald Trump supporters will be backing a man who has his criminal cases still unresolved. According to the former chief of the fraud and public corruption section at the U.S. Attorney’s Office, having an election under such circumstances is unthinkable.

"As Richard Nixon might have put it, voters have a right to know whether their candidate is a crook. It can be avoided, but it’s going to require the judiciary to take some extraordinary steps. And whether it happens will be decided by a relative handful of federal jurists — including a number appointed by Mr. Trump himself," Randall D. Eliason writes in The New York Times.

The infamous right-wing network of organizations created by the Koch brothers is wading back into politics — and committing tens of millions in a last-gasp effort to deny former President Donald Trump the 2024 nomination, reported The New York Times Tuesday.

Presently, Trump tops all competitors by nearly 50 points in polls. However, the race to consolidate the anti-Trump vote is up for grabs, with Nikki Haley battling Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for second place.

Former President Donald Trump's fundraising pitches, like his social media posts, have long had a recurring theme of persecution. Democrats, Never Trump conservatives and the "Deep State," Trump has emphasized, are out to get him — and they will stop at nothing.

Trump often makes it personal for his supporters, telling them that when the "Deep State" attacks him, they're attacking you.

Former Vice President Mike Pence is saying that a typographical error in his book obscured a serious moment in which he admonished former President Donald Trump against his plan to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

Specifically, the former vice president told special counsel Jack Smith's team about the errant insertion of a comma in the statement "You know, I don't have the authority to change the outcome of the election," which made it look as if Pence was simply explaining it wouldn't work, when in reality he was scolding Trump that he knew it was illegal and was doing it anyway.

For years, former President Donald Trump has avoided agreeing with intelligence assessments that Russian President Vladimir Putin interfered on his behalf during the 2016 presidential election.

Most infamously, Trump rejected the American intelligence community's assessment about Russia's actions at a press conference in Helsinki, Finland where he stood next to Putin and said, "President Putin says it's not Russia, I don't see any reason why it would be."

Two legal experts delivered a linguistic smackdown of former President Donald Trump's latest claims during the latest episode of the "Prosecuting Donald Trump" podcast released after Thanksgiving.

Former longtime prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord walked through the accusations Trump made over the holiday, claiming that he is being selectively prosecuted in a manner that is retaliatory and vindictive.

There was no quid pro quo, and Gov. Ron DeSantis is offended anyone implied there was.

The Florida Republican blasted former President Donald Trump for insinuating he paid six figures to win the endorsement of Iowa evangelical leader Bob Vander Plaats, president and CEO of The Family Leader.

Lev Parnas and Igor Fruman were the two associates of Rudy Giuliani who funneled campaign money from foreigners to Donald Trump, according to a Justice Department indictment. But more than their scheme, their work with Giuliani as he worked to dig up dirt on Joe Biden in Ukraine.

Parnas was sentenced to 20 months in prison and three years of supervised release in June 2022, after pleading guilty. He did work with congressional committees when asked for information in 2020.
