Former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> surrounded himself with potential running mates and other allies on Saturday during the Republican National Committee (RNC) spring retreat at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida.
Among those who joined Trump on stage in the Grand Ballroom for a lunch event were Sens. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Tim Scott (R-SC), entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, and North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum, all former 2024 presidential rivals now considered to be in the running for vice president, according to a post to X from his campaign.
House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), and Reps. Byron Donalds (R-FL) and Wesley Hunt (R-TX), who have all been mentioned as part of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/kellyanne-conway-offers-insight-into-trump-veepstakes-suggests-person-of-color" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Veepstakes</a> this election cycle, also attended.
Other Republicans who were present included House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Sens. Mike Lee (R-UT) and Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Reps. Jim Banks (R-IN), who is running for Senate; Michael Waltz (R-FL); Pennsylvania Senate candidate Dave McCormick; and Ohio Senate candidate Bernie Moreno.
During the event, Trump recognized the RNC&#8217;s fundraising efforts and &#8220;enthusiasm&#8221; for his &#8220;Make America Great Again&#8221; movement, per his campaign. He spoke for around 90 minutes about the presidential race, election integrity, the economy, the border, and protests taking place on university campuses. He also touted Johnson&#8217;s work as a speaker and advocated for party unity.

In the 2016 and 2020 elections, Trump ran with former Vice President Mike Pence, a former governor of Indiana. Pence led his own presidential campaign in the 2024 election cycle but <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/mike-pence-suspends-2024-presidential-campaign" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dropped out</a> in late October before the start of the GOP primary contests.
Trump recently met with one of his other former 2024 Republican primary rivals, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Both indicated they had a productive conversation and made plans to defeat President Joe Biden in the November election.

Former President Donald Trump has been stuck in court every day recently as he attends his trial over alleged hush money payments, but he has managed to carve out time for local campaign visits, including one to a New York City Fire Department (FDNY) station this week.
On Thursday just after court, Trump <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/05/02/us-news/trump-bearing-pizzas-met-with-cheers-at-manhattan-fdny-firehouse/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">brought</a> pizzas to an FDNY station, Engine Co. 8, Ladder Co. 2 in Midtown.

Video from the visit, which happened around 5:30 p.m. shows the former president walking into the station carrying two pizzas, shaking hands, taking photos, and chatting with station officials. People can be heard cheering in the background. The Trump campaign had dropped off 10 additional pizzas for the firefighters before Trump&#8217;s arrival.
“You gotta win!” one firefighter told Trump as he arrived.
“Sir, save us please,” another told him.
“I love you all – special people,” Trump <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/05/02/us-news/trump-bearing-pizzas-met-with-cheers-at-manhattan-fdny-firehouse/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a> in the station&#8217;s daybook.
Last month, Trump also <a href="https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2024/04/16/trump-bodega-new-york-court" target="_blank" rel="noopener">visited</a> a Manhattan bodega in West Harlem where a clerk was charged with murder after fatally stabbing an attacker in 2022.

The presumptive Republican presidential nominee is fighting 34 felony counts of falsifying business records related to allegedly covering up more than $130,000 in hush money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign. Prosecutors claim the former president illegally paid Daniels to keep her quiet about an alleged affair.
Trump has denied the allegations and pled not guilty.
Meanwhile, the judge in the case has slapped Trump with a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-responds-to-gag-order-fine-says-judge-is-rigging-2024-election">gag order</a> prohibiting him from commenting on potential witnesses, jurors, court staff, and attorneys.

Trump is back in court on Friday for day 11 of the trial.
Trump has said he plans to &#8220;make a heavy play for New York&#8221; despite the state&#8217;s heavy Democratic leaning — New York has not voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1984 when Ronald Reagan was re-elected in a landslide.
&#8220;I think we have a chance.

Former President Donald Trump slammed the Senate&#8217;s bipartisan border bill on Monday, calling it a &#8220;trap&#8221; set by Democrats for Republicans.
Senators released the final version of a long-awaited border bill on Sunday afternoon. The bill will likely face a full Senate vote soon, but it is unclear whether it will pass, especially as it continues to bleed Republican support.
&#8220;Only a fool, or a Radical Left Democrat, would vote for this horrendous Border Bill, which only gives Shutdown Authority after 5000 Encounters a day, when we already have the right to CLOSE THE BORDER NOW, which must be done,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879340091575646" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> on Truth Social on Monday morning.
&#8220;This Bill is a great gift to the Democrats, and a Death Wish for The Republican Party,&#8221; Trump continued. &#8220;It takes the HORRIBLE JOB the Democrats have done on Immigration and the Border, absolves them, and puts it all squarely on the shoulders of Republicans. Don’t be STUPID!!!&#8221;
The former president said Republicans need a separate border bill that is not &#8220;tied to foreign aid in any way, shape, or form,&#8221; saying Democrats &#8220;broke Immigration and the Border. They should fix it.&#8221;
Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879769015903043" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> again later Monday morning, saying the &#8220;ridiculous&#8221; border bill is &#8220;nothing more than a highly sophisticated trap for Republicans to assume the blame on what the Radical Left Democrats have done to our Border, just in time for our most important EVER Election. Don’t fall for it!!!&#8221;
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said the bill will have its first procedural vote on the floor on Wednesday.
However, some Republicans have already said they will not support it.
The $118 billion deal would tighten asylum requirements, shut down the southern border if immigrant encounters hit certain levels, and send billions of dollars to not only the border but Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan.
The bill faces an uphill battle in the Senate, with several conservative senators already casting doubt on whether they will support it.
“This is an open-borders bill if I’ve ever seen one. The Democrats are celebrating already,” Senator Josh Hawley (R-MO) said on X.
Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) said she will &#8220;never vote to make illegal immigration legal, and I will not support this deal.&#8221;
The two top Republicans in the House both said the bill is a non-starter in the lower chamber.
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) said the bill is &#8220;dead on arrival&#8221; in the House and called it &#8220;even worse than we expected.&#8221;
House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-LA) also <a href="https://twitter.com/SteveScalise/status/1754319765894578181" target="_blank" rel="noopener">slammed</a> the bill, vowing it will not receive a vote in the House and calling it &#8220;a magnet for more illegal immigration.&#8221;

The Biden campaign is attempting to tie former President Donald Trump to state abortion bans in a new ad as a part of a broader campaign strategy to hammer the abortion issue as the 2024 race heats up.
On Sunday, the Biden campaign debuted a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrtvE4bSwKY" target="_blank" rel="noopener">new spot</a> titled &#8220;Forced,&#8221; which features Dr. Austin Dennard, a Dallas OBGYN and mother of three, who obtained an abortion out of state for an unborn child she says had a fetal condition with &#8220;absolutely no chance of survival.&#8221;
&#8220;In Texas, you are forced to carry that pregnancy, and that is because of Donald Trump overturning Roe v. Wade,&#8221; Dennard says in the 60-second video.
&#8220;I was to continue my pregnancy, putting my life at risk,&#8221; she adds.
&#8220;We need leaders who will protect our rights and not take them away, and that&#8217;s Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,&#8221; Dennard says.
Dennard&#8217;s baby was <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/01/21/us/politics/biden-abortion-ad.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> diagnosed at 11 weeks with anencephaly, a condition where a baby is born without parts of the brain and skull.
Dennard is one of several women suing Texas to clarify the “medical emergency” exception to the state’s abortion ban.
She <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/07/20/us/texas-abortion-ban-doctor-testimony/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">testified</a> in July that her pregnancy would have put her at “significant risk,&#8221; but that she did not think she would be granted an abortion under the exception because she was not &#8220;critically ill.&#8221;
“I was not hemorrhaging, I was not septic. I was pregnant with a lethal anomaly, and I did not believe that I would be able to receive an abortion in my state at that time for the sole purpose of my lethal anomaly,” she said at the time.
It is not clear what specific health risks the pregnancy posed to Dennard.
Texas had a six-week abortion ban that was triggered into effect when the Supreme Court overturned Roe vs. Wade in 2022. The law bans all abortions after six weeks, except those performed to protect the life of the mother.
The new Biden ad will run for a week in seven battleground states — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
The campaign <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/21/politics/biden-campaign-abortion-rights-donald-trump/index.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">hopes</a> to target suburban women and young voters, so the ad will run on programs and channels known to attract women, including the season premiere of &#8220;The Bachelor&#8221; and HGTV, TLC, Bravo, Hallmark, and the Food Network. It will also run during Sunday&#8217;s NFL conference championship games.

The ad&#8217;s release comes around the 51st anniversary of Roe v. Wade&#8217;s decision in 1973.
Trump has vaunted Roe vs. Wade&#8217;s demise on the campaign trail, emphasizing that he appointed the justices that gave the court the conservative majority needed to overturn it.
“For 54 years they were trying to get Roe v. Wade terminated, and I did it. And I’m proud to have done it,” the former president said during a recent Fox News town hall.

Well, 2024 has arrived and, before it gets fully underway, I’d like to pause and give you my predictions of what we can expect from this exciting new year.
With the war in what used to be Ukraine turning sour for the future citizens of Russia and the war in what used to be Gaza spreading to encompass Lebanon, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Harvard University, AOC’s fantasy life, a falafel stand on 53rd Street, the empty place in the minds of college students where knowledge would be if they had ever learned anything, and anywhere else where there are members of Hamas or supporters of Hamas or customers at the falafel stand who asked “How much?” and it sort of sounded like &#8220;Hamas,&#8221; or anyone wearing one of those sinister black-and-white scarfs who can’t prove he’s an extra in the remake of &#8220;Lawrence of Arabia,&#8221; or anyone who thought remaking &#8220;Lawrence of Arabia&#8221; was a good idea, I think we can expect China to seize the moment to invade Taiwan. 
The American military will of course respond immediately with a delightful transgender musical extravaganza featuring the joint Chiefs of Staff forming a kickline in matching pleated lame gowns. During intermission, the Chinese army will take time out to enjoy a tasty falafel at the stand on 53rd Street after they finish invading New York City, where of course they&#8217;ll be entirely wiped out by the Israelis. After that, the seventh seal will be opened, the sun will turn as black as sackcloth made from goat’s hair, and the people will hide in caves praying for death before they face the wrathful judgment of the Lamb of God.
Then, in February, President and venal houseplant Joe Biden will suddenly sit up in bed and shout, “Ice cream!” as he finally remembers the answer to the question, “What’s your favorite food?” which Ryan Seacrest asked him on New Year’s Eve.
<h4><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/ep-1162-the-andrew-klavan-show" target="_blank" rel="noopener">WATCH: The Andrew Klavan Show</a></h4>
In April, Biden will announce that he will not run for re-election but will instead lie in state after having passed away last July. Kamala Harris will also step aside after Mexico rewards her for the job she did securing the border by giving her her own cartel. Known by her Mexican nickname &#8220;El Stupido Beyond Believamente,&#8221; Kamala will then make history by becoming the first sort of black sort of woman to run a multi-national crime organization while being unable to spell fentanyl.
After some inter-party jockeying, Gavin Newsom will become the Democrat candidate, running under the slogan, “Let’s Make Everything California,” accompanied by a picture of a beautiful blue sky with a smiling sun shining down on a flaming toilet. Newsom will demonstrate his commitment to public safety by promising to make every American wear a mask unless he’s looting a Walmart, in which case there’s no need.
Finally, in November, Donald Trump will be re-elected president and will celebrate his victory by hanging a poster of Rita Hayworth on the wall of his prison cell and then disappearing without a trace until guards look behind the poster and find Trump used a plastic spoon to dig a tunnel to the Oval Office. There, Trump will already be hard at work filling his administration with people who absolutely detest him and want to sabotage everything he does. Nevertheless, in his first hundred days, Trump will order the building of a spectacular new D.C. headquarters for the FBI so they can continue their important work of investigating Trump for crimes committed by Hillary Clinton; Trump will sign an executive order allowing trans-women athletes to compete in pissing contests in ladies rooms across the country, and he’ll announce a second Operation Warp Speed to ramp up the manufacture of his perfect vaccine until Dr. Fauci announces the pandemic is over.
Trump supporters, meanwhile, will celebrate Trump owning the libs by taking the perfect vaccine and then dying of heart attacks.
In sports, we can look forward to NFL referees announcing that the Chiefs were offsides in last year’s Super Bowl and the Eagles are now the 2023 champions. And leftist documentarian Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy will direct a new feminist &#8220;Star Wars&#8221; film to prove that there’s something even emptier than outer space, namely theaters showing the new Star Wars film by leftist documentarian Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy.

President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> enters 2024 with job approval and poll numbers that bode ill for the incumbent, a political analyst told an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/msnbc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MSNBC</a> audience on New Year&#8217;s Eve.
National political correspondent Steve Kornacki <a href="https://www.mediaite.com/news/msnbcs-kornacki-has-devastating-report-on-bidens-epic-bad-polling-for-new-year/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">explained on Sunday</a>, armed with his signature charts, how NBC&#8217;s final poll of the year compares with the statistics for other presidents heading into a re-election year.
Biden stood at 40% approval and 57% disapproval  in November, which Kornacki said is the &#8220;lowest&#8221; dating back to President George H.W. Bush, who lost his attempt to secure a second term, and others who won or got defeated in the intervening years.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
MSNBC&#39;s Steve Kornacki: Biden&#39;s approval rating is &quot;the lowest NBC poll for an incumbent facing a re-election year&quot; <a href="https://t.co/W8MEDKLO77">pic.twitter.com/W8MEDKLO77</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Moving on to an average of 2024 general election polls, which over course of 2023 has flipped from favoring Biden in a head-to-head rematch against former President Donald Trump by 2 points to giving Trump a plus-two margin over Biden, Kornacki noted that it looks to be a &#8220;very close race.&#8221;
Kornacki said the &#8220;big thing&#8221; on his radar is how voters — three out of four of them — have major to moderate concerns about Biden&#8217;s age (81) and fitness to continue serving as commander in chief.  As for Trump, Kornacki continued, the X factor appears to be rising anxiety about his legal situation, particularly if there is a conviction.
Though Biden and Trump are dominating in their respective parties, at least in the polls, less than a month before the caucuses and primary contests get under way, Kornacki also unpacked some data showing that both candidates came up short behind a &#8220;generic&#8221; member of their own party in the November poll from NBC News. Though unlike Trump, Biden trailed by double digits.
&#8220;Broadly there’s not a big appetite for Trump versus Biden, even though it seems that each party, at least as we enter 2024, is poised to go in that direction,&#8221; Kornacki said.
He showed another graphic, this one for a recent poll from The Wall Street Journal, which broadened the scope of a presidential contest beyond just the two major parties amid big names such as Robert Kennedy Jr. and potential Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV).
&#8220;They included a bunch of third party options and against Biden and Trump. They added up to 17%. That’s a big question heading into 2024. Is it going to be a real third party candidate to create a wild card in this?&#8221;

Brennan said, &#8220;A lot of people up at night with that concern, Catherine. At least in this town,&#8221; alluding to Washington, D.C.
Other panelists also gave their predictions for 2024.
CBS News chief national affairs and justice correspondent Jeff Pegues said that he expects crime across the country, in particular violent crime, will stick to a downward trend next year.

Robert Costa, chief election and campaign correspondent for CBS News, predicted a &#8220;crisis&#8221; might happen within the GOP if former President Donald Trump becomes a convicted felon and the party has no &#8220;real plan&#8221; for a general election in which he is the presidential nominee. Costa&#8217;s colleague, chief legal correspondent Jan Crawford, surmised that the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-asks-federal-appeals-court-to-dismiss-2020-election-case" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Supreme Court will not &#8220;save&#8221; Trump from criminal prosecution</a>.
CBS News national security correspondent David Martin joked that he would have to predict the discovery of alien life to compete with the other &#8220;shockers,&#8221; but settled on North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reaping the &#8220;rewards&#8221; of sending munitions to Russia — as was <a href="https://apnews.com/article/north-korea-russia-us-munitions-ukraine-war-7091eaba254b680888a9b1ec8a68135f" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported by the White House</a> in October — such as technical aid for his country&#8217;s nuclear weapons program.
Brennan concluded that &#8220;the only certainty is uncertainty.&#8221;
She added, &#8220;And anyone who tells you what is going to happen with this election, and how it&#8217;s going to play out over the next year is selling you something because there are just so many different variables that all of us are tracking, and all of us are weighing &#8230; But it&#8217;s also why none of us will sleep very much in the next few months.&#8221;

Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri endorsed former President Donald Trump for president on Tuesday.
Hawley had previously said he believed Trump would win the GOP nomination but had stopped short of officially endorsing him. Hawley became the 18th Republican senator to back Trump in an interview with <a href="https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2023/12/12/congress/hawley-endorses-trump-00131430" target="_blank" rel="noopener">POLITICO</a>.
“President Trump doesn’t need to worry. I’m with him. He&#8217;s asked me several times to support him. I said yes. And I&#8217;ve been saying for a year that I think he’s gonna be the nominee. I support him. I&#8217;m gonna vote for him,” Hawley said. “Don&#8217;t worry — you can put me down as support, endorsed, stand with.”

On Sunday, the former president <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111557139378057622" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posted</a> a warning to Hawley and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) about upcoming election battles they face, saying the senators should be &#8220;very careful.&#8221;
&#8220;So interesting that the Democrats are looking hard at the Senate races in both Missouri and Texas. Josh and Ted must be very careful, stranger things have happened!!!&#8221; Trump wrote.
Trump is leading the primary field with 60% support nationally, according to the <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2024/president/us/2024_republican_presidential_nomination-7548.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RealClearPolitics</a> polling average. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley are battling for second at 12.6 points and 12.1 points, respectively. The rest of the field sits under 5 points.
Haley’s campaign received a boost in New Hampshire, the second primary state, on Monday with the endorsement of New Hampshire Republican Governor Chris Sununu.
“This is an opportunity for New Hampshire to lead this country, for New Hampshire to say we’re not looking in the rearview mirror anymore,” Sununu said at a town hall event in Manchester alongside Haley. “You bet your a** I am. We’re all in for Nikki Haley.”
The primary race is closer in New Hampshire, but Trump still leads the field by about 26 points, according to the <a href="https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2024/president/nh/2024_new_hampshire_republican_presidential_primary-7396.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">RealClearPolitics</a> polling average. Trump leads with about 44% support, Haley is in second at about 19%, and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is in third with 13%.
DeSantis has invested heavily in early states, especially in Iowa, where he is sitting second in polling behind Trump, though the state nominates by caucus instead of popular vote. DeSantis has received endorsements from influential names in Iowa, such as Republican Governor Kim Reynolds and evangelical leader Bob Vander Plaats.

<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/david-axelrod" target="_blank" rel="noopener">David Axelrod</a>, a former adviser to President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/barack-obama" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Barack Obama</a>, openly pondered on Sunday whether President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/joe-biden" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joe Biden</a> should run for a second term in 2024.
A series of <a href="https://twitter.com/davidaxelrod/status/1721187586268389858" target="_blank" rel="noopener">posts to X</a> by Axelrod offered an analysis of the political situation in response to The New York Times publishing poll results showing former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> topping Biden in <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/05/us/politics/biden-trump-2024-poll.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">five out of six</a> key battleground states.
&#8220;It&#8217;s very late to change horses; a lot will happen in the next year that no one can predict &amp; Biden&#8217;s team says his resolve to run is firm. He&#8217;s defied [conventional wisdom] before but this will send tremors of doubt thru the party&#8211;not &#8216;bed-wetting,&#8217; but legitimate concern,&#8221; Axelrod wrote.

&#8220;The greatest concern is that his biggest liability is the one thing he can&#8217;t change,&#8221; Axelrod added. &#8220;Among all the unpredictables there is one thing that is sure: the age arrow only points in one direction.&#8221;

Already the oldest person to be president at 80, Biden would be 86 at the end of a second term. His tendency to lose his train of thought while speaking and moments caught on camera where he has tripped or fallen over have spurred concerns about his ability to lead effectively.
Axelrod served as a top strategist for Obama&#8217;s two winning presidential campaigns and as an adviser in the Obama White House in which Biden served as vice president. Despite their shared history, Axelrod has consistently voiced worry about <a href="https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/politics/david-axelrod-biden-age-political-viability" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Biden&#8217;s age becoming a political liability</a>. Axelrod did so again on Sunday, even as he touted the incumbent&#8217;s work as president.
&#8220;The [president] is justly proud of his accomplishments. Trump is a dangerous, unhinged demagogue whose brazen disdain for the rules, norms, laws and institutions [of] democracy should be disqualifying. But the stakes of miscalculation here are too dramatic to ignore,&#8221; Axelrod said in his X thread.
&#8220;Only [Biden] can make this decision,&#8221; he added. &#8220;If he continues to run, he will be the nominee of the Democratic Party. What he needs to decide is whether that is wise; whether it&#8217;s in HIS best interest or the country&#8217;s?&#8221;

A left-wing group has sued in yet another state to try and keep former President <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/donald-trump" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Donald Trump</a> off the 2024 ballot.
This time, the nonprofit known as Free Speech For People filed suit in the Wolverine State to block Trump, citing his actions during the January 6 Capitol protest as sufficient legal evidence to bar him from the ballot under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment.
Mark Brewer, the former Michigan Democratic Party Chair and an attorney for Free Speech For People, filed the suit on behalf of Michigan voters Robert LaBrant, Andrew Bradway, Norah Murphy, and William Nowling on Friday, <a href="https://www.courthousenews.com/trumps-2024-ballot-eligibility-challenged-again-in-michigan-lawsuit/">according</a> to Courthouse News.
“Despite knowing that violence was ongoing at the Capitol and that his violent supporters would heed a call from him to withdraw, for 187 minutes, Trump refused repeated requests that he instruct his violent supporters to disperse and leave the Capitol,” Brewer wrote in the suit. “Instead, he reveled in the violent attack as it unfolded on television.”
The attorney claimed, &#8220;The events of January 6, 2021, amounted to an insurrection or rebellion under Section 3: a violent, coordinated effort to storm the Capitol to obstruct and prevent the Vice President of the United States and the United States Congress from fulfilling their constitutional roles by certifying President Biden’s victory, and to illegally extend then-President Trump’s tenure in office.&#8221;
Michigan isn’t the first state in which this group is trying to block Trump’s ballot presence. It also filed suit in Minnesota and attempted the same gambit in New Hampshire, but the group&#8217;s effort was blocked by the Granite State&#8217;s Secretary of State.
&#8220;As long as he submits his declaration of candidacy and signs it under the penalties of perjury and pays the $1,000 filing fee, his name will appear on the presidential primary ballot,&#8221; Secretary of State David Scanlan said in a press conference.
Scanlan also <a href="https://apnews.com/article/trump-new-hampshire-gop-ballot-block-consitution-insurrection-56f75ee5d650988d304308c5c912e9b2" target="_blank" rel="noopener">explained</a> that barring Trump could prove disastrous for the electoral process.

“In a situation where some states permit a name to appear on the ballot and other states disqualify it, chaos, confusion, anger, and frustration will be the result,” he said. “At a time when we need to ensure transparency and build confidence among voters around the country, the delegate selection process should not be the battleground to test this constitutional question.”

Left-Wing Group Sues To Keep Trump Off Ballot In Michigan

As was made evident after the GOP&#8217;s second 2024 primary debate, Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) relishes the spotlight even in hostile territory. He&#8217;s a slimy politician who rarely makes verbal errors. Sure, he lies through his teeth, but that hasn&#8217;t stopped his political success.
That made his reaction to Sean Hannity&#8217;s comment about President Joe Biden&#8217;s mental ability, or lack thereof, all the more interesting Wednesday night.
From the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, Hannity tried goading Newsom into admitting that he wants to run for higher office in 2024. The two yukked it up, smiling and laughing as Hannity laid out the scene, positing that the pomp and circumstance might appeal to Newsom&#8217;s presidential ambitions.
&#8220;I know the truth, in your heart, in your mind, you want this,&#8221; Hannity said as Newsom grinned and shifted in his seat. &#8220;But you have basically gone on a media tour sucking up to Joe Biden, and you know he&#8217;s a cognitive mess.&#8221;
Newsom looked him dead in the eye, and said, &#8220;I also know he’s got an extraordinary record to run on,&#8221; before getting into a back-and-forth. (emphasis added)
It was easy to miss, but Newsom acknowledged that  Biden is a &#8220;cognitive mess.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Hannity: “You basically have gone on a media tour sucking up to Joe Biden, and you know he’s a cognitive mess.”

Did Newsom just admit Biden is a cognitive mess? <a href="https://t.co/WbOSjSteYr">https://t.co/WbOSjSteYr</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Given his political prominence and apparent lust for power, it stands to reason that Newsom knew what he was doing with that answer.
<a href="https://onelink.to/dwapp" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-9096" data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://onelink.to/dwapp&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1696011031102000&amp;usg=AOvVaw1725QljG4qoXJl_mG2Blr2">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP</a>
By praising Biden, he gave himself cover and avoided overtly criticizing the president. Yet by gently admitting Biden&#8217;s obvious mental handicaps — and they are obvious— he opened the door for Democrats to consider another possibility.
Today, Newsom finds himself holding a great deal of power in choosing the late Sen. Diane Feinstein&#8217;s replacement pick.  Will he use that to his advantage to try and position himself in 2024 or beyond? Only time will tell.
For now, it seems evident that Biden is going to be the 2024 Democratic nominee. But should his health get in the way and actually force him off the ballot, Newsom has primed himself as the heir apparent.

NBC&#8217;s Kristen Welker claimed &#8220;no one&#8221; is arguing for legal abortion up to birth in her new interview with former President Donald Trump, but that claim is demonstrably false.
The new &#8220;Meet the Press&#8221; moderator sparred with Trump for over an hour on abortion and other issues in an interview released Sunday.
&#8220;The radical people on this are really the Democrats that say after five months, six months, seven months, eight months, nine months, and even after birth, you’re allowed to terminate the baby,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/kevin-tober/2023/09/17/nbcs-welker-attempts-fact-check-trump-live-fails-miserably" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told</a> Welker during the interview.
&#8220;Mr. President, Democrats aren&#8217;t saying that,&#8221; Welker responded.
Moments later Trump said, &#8220;I said with Hillary Clinton when we had the debate, I made a statement, &#8216;rip the baby out of the womb&#8217; in the ninth month. You&#8217;re allowed to do that, and you shouldn&#8217;t be allowed to do that.&#8221;
&#8220;Again, no one is arguing for that. That&#8217;s not a part of anyone&#8217;s platform, Mr. President,&#8221; Welker said.
Besides the <a href="https://www.ncregister.com/blog/many-abortion-advocates-back-abortions-up-until-birth" target="_blank" rel="noopener">untold number</a> of abortion activists who advocate for abortion on demand up to birth, a slew of states currently allow abortion at any point in the pregnancy.
<div class="page" title="Page 1">
<div class="section">
<div class="layoutArea">
<div class="column">
Alaska, Colorado, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Vermont, and Washington, D.C. all <a href="https://states.guttmacher.org/policies/dc/abortion-policies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">allow</a> abortion with no gestational limits.
While high-profile Democrats often hedge on whether they support any gestational limits on abortion, some have come right out and admitted they support abortion up to the moment of birth.
Senator Ben Cardin (D-MD) was direct about his stance during a Fox News segment in June.
&#8220;Is there a cutoff for you before [the due date]?&#8221; host Shannon Bream <a href="https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/democratic-senator-admits-he-opposes-any-legal-limit-on-abortion-before-a-babys-due-date/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">asked</a> Cardin.
&#8220;No, to me, it&#8217;s a reproductive, it&#8217;s a health care decision. It&#8217;s up to women to make that decision,&#8221; Cardin responded.
Dozens of House and Senate Democrats <a href="https://johnfetterman.com/issue/protecting-womens-reproductive-freedom/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">also</a> <a href="https://democraticwomenscaucus-frankel.house.gov/media/press-releases/democratic-womens-caucus-joins-house-democrats-introduce-womens-health" target="_blank" rel="noopener">support</a> the Women&#8217;s Health Protection <a href="https://www.baldwin.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/whpa_of_2023_bill_text.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Act</a>, which would legalize abortions after fetal viability, usually around 23 weeks, if in the abortionist&#8217;s &#8220;good faith medical judgment&#8221; the pregnancy poses a risk to the mother&#8217;s health. Mental health is not excluded in the bill&#8217;s language.
The Biden administration supports the Act as well, and President Biden <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/05/11/statement-from-president-biden-on-the-senate-vote-on-the-womens-health-protection-act/#:~:text=The%20protections%20that%20the%20Women%27s,access%20to%20women%27s%20reproductive%20care." target="_blank" rel="noopener">lamented</a> Senate Republicans blocking the bill last year.
&#8220;The protections that the Women’s Health Protection Act would ensure are essential to the health, safety, and progress of our nation,&#8221; Biden <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/05/11/statement-from-president-biden-on-the-senate-vote-on-the-womens-health-protection-act/#:~:text=The%20protections%20that%20the%20Women%27s,access%20to%20women%27s%20reproductive%20care." target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> at the time.

In Sunday&#8217;s &#8220;Meet The Press&#8221; interview Trump also said, &#8220;the Democrats are able to kill the baby after birth. Nobody wants that.&#8221;
&#8220;Democrats don&#8217;t want that either,&#8221; Welker responded.
No Democrat lists infanticide on their platform, but some have appeared to support it, most infamously former Virginia Governor Ralph Northam.
Northam, a physician, was asked in 2019 whether he would support abortion occurring when the mother is already in labor.
&#8220;In this particular example, if a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen,&#8221; Northam <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-democratic-va-governor-endorses-murder-born-ben-shapiro">told</a> WTOP. &#8220;The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable. The infant would be resuscitated if that&#8217;s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.&#8221;
The same year, all but three Senate Democrats <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/senate-blocks-bill-on-medical-care-for-children-born-alive-after-attempted-abortion/2019/02/25/e5d3d4d8-3924-11e9-a06c-3ec8ed509d15_story.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">killed</a> a bill that would have protected babies born alive after a failed abortion, requiring doctors to “exercise the same degree of professional skill, care, and diligence to preserve the life and health of the child” as they would to “any other child born alive at the same gestational age.”
At least 10,000 late-term abortions <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/08/23/abortion-democratic-position-rfk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">are performed</a> every year. Democrats like to claim most late-term abortions happen because of a fetal abnormality or to save the life of the mother, but there is data to the contrary.
&#8220;Data suggest that most women seeking later terminations are not doing so for reasons of fetal anomaly or life endangerment,&#8221; reads 2013 <a href="http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1363/4521013/abstract" target="_blank" rel="noopener">research</a> published by Perspectives on Sexual and Reproductive Health, <a href="https://www.guttmacher.org/journals/psrh" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a journal</a> of the Guttmacher Institute.
As far as the American public goes, NBC&#8217;s Welker is correct in downplaying the popularity of legal late-term abortion — a recent Associated Press poll <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/most-americans-dont-support-unrestricted-abortion-even-though-most-dont-want-total-bans" target="_blank" rel="noopener">showed</a> only half of Americans want abortion to be legal after 15 weeks, which is still just the beginning of the second trimester.
Democratic politicians, however, are another matter.
