And speaking of Donald Trump's lies about Minnesota: Donald Trump lost Minnesota by seven points to Joe Biden in 2020, but at a Minnesota campaign rally tonight, Trump claimed that he won that state. Earlier today, Donald Trump told a local Minnesota TV station that he never said in 2020 that he wou...

And after claiming that "we have deranged Jack Smith in New York" (wrong case, Donald!), this happened:

Trump also said of President Biden: "I just want to debate this guy, but, you know. And I'm going to demand a drug test."

Around the time jury selection was under way for this trial, Donald Trump complained that Judge Merchan was preventing him from traveling to the high school graduation for his youngest son, Barron, which was scheduled for today. Never mind that the judge had only said he couldn't promise so early th...

The Dow did not remain above 40,000 today and in fact closed slightly down (-0.097%) from yesterday, but the Biden campaign still seized the moment. And there it is! Today the Dow Jones closed above 40,000. That's never happened before. And as noted above, Donald Trump said in 2020 that if Joe Bide...

An intruder broke into the home of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and attacked her 82 year old husband Paul Pelosi with a hammer, injuring him significantly. While no motive has been established, it is reported that the intruder was yelling "where is Nancy" before attacking her husband...

Ah, thanks for that correction. I thought the defense argument was, in part, that Michael Cohen did this on his own (and as far as I have heard, we haven't seen a copy of the agreement signed by Donald Trump himself) out of the goodness of his heart rather than at the direction of Trump and then Tru...
