Rapper 50 Cent has become an unlikely supporter of Donald Trump’s reelection campaign, with the hip hop artist reacting in horror to Joe Biden’s tax plan, which hikes rates on high earners, and calling on fans to “vote for Trump.” The ‘Get Rich or Die Tryin’ star threw his weight behind the president in an Instagram post on Monday, sharing a screencap from a news broadcast […]
Here’s a question for you. You live in Los Angeles. You have a laptop that’s acting up; needs some work. Do you: A) Find a computer repair shop in your neighborhood via Google or whatever and take it there; B) Send it back to the manufacturer; C) Say to yourself, “Oh, I know, I think I’ll go to Wilmington, Delaware, and take it to a legally […]
Huntergate was meant to be the WikiLeaks 2.0. Trumpworld hoped the story of the contents of Hunter’s laptop would mimic the trajectory of the story about the contents of Anthony Weiner’s laptop. It was literally a reprise of October 2020. Rudy Giuliani hoped another laptop might save the self-devouring Ouroboros snake of fuckery that is the Trump campaign. Hunter Biden, of course, had a drug problem. […]
CNN anchor Jake Tapper ended a combative Sunday interview with Trump campaign senior adviser Lara Trump by pressing the presidential daughter-in-law for openly mocking Joe Biden’s well-known stutter, prompting a tense exchange over the Democratic nominee’s mental fitness for office. At the top of CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday morning, Tapper noted that he had attempted to book members of the White House coronavirus […]
Rudy Giuliani thinks it’s hilarious. He says the questions mounting around him—including those about whether his efforts to dump Hunter Biden’s documents and photos are part of some foreign election-interference operation—are “a bunch of bullshit.” He’s unconcerned about intelligence assessments that one of his former associates was a Russian agent, a proposition that he gave more or less even odds. In fact, Giuliani said, he has […]
Alfred Gescheidt/Getty Images Alfred Gescheidt/Getty Images When President Trump and Joe Biden faced off for the first — and so far, only — presidential debate late last month, Trump attacked his Democratic rival with a false claim about Hunter Biden. “Hunter got thrown out of the military,” Trump said. “He was thrown out, dishonorably discharged, for cocaine use.” That’s factually wrong. Hunter Biden, age 50, received […]
On Wednesday morning, the New York Post published a story alleging that Hunter Biden dropped off a laptop at a Delaware computer store for repair and that the device contained nefarious emails and photos. The item was immediately viewed with suspicion, both for the timing of it—coming less than three weeks before the elections—and the path the laptop supposedly took. The Post said that “before turning […]
Emails obtained by the New York Post suggest that Hunter Biden introduced a Ukrainian energy boss to his father, then-vice president Joe Biden. The former VP has insisted he knew nothing about his son’s dodgy dealings. A year after Hunter Biden joined the board of Ukrainian energy firm Burisma in 2014, the then-vice president’s son’s family connections apparently paid off – at least that’s what the […]
Joe Biden’s son-in-law is advising his presidential campaign on Covid-19 response while overseeing investments in health-care startups, a potential conflict of interest, Politico reported – to the chagrin of its leftist readers. Howard Krein, who married Ashley Biden in 2012, has been advising her father’s campaign on Covid-response policies while at the same time leading investment firm StartUp Health in staking fledgling companies with products or […]
Joe Biden’s campaign stop in Toledo, Ohio was slightly overshadowed by some enthusiastic supporters of Donald Trump who drowned out his speech by chanting “four more years!” While trying to speak about the economy during a drive-in event, Biden found himself talking over Trump supporters several times. Every time he mentioned the president by name, the MAGA supporters would honk their car horns and chant things […]
Despite the US mainstream media and the FBI appearing uninterested in the latest GOP study concerning Hunter Biden’s financial transactions and occupations during his father’s vice presidency, the investigation may go full throttle if Joe Biden is defeated in the 2020 campaign, suggests US investigative journalist George Eliason. The FBI has refused to either confirm or deny the existence of any ongoing investigations concerning Hunter Biden, […]
Joe Biden’s penchant for gaffes and cringy moments involving girls has resurfaced, as the Democrat presidential candidate told a group of “beautiful young ladies” that he wants to “see them dancing when they’re four years older.” “The good news for me is, I’m here,” Biden told a group in Miami on Monday. “The bad news for you is, I’m coming back. And I want to see […]
Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who is currently awaiting coronavirus test results, coughed through a Fox News interview on Monday night in which he attacked Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for consistently wearing a mask, claiming it was a “political statement” meant to “scare” people. Moments after President Donald Trump returned to the White House despite still battling COVID-19—a homecoming that included a photo-op moment featuring the […]
On Friday night, Jimmy Kimmel was one of the few late-night hosts on to address the total chaos that’s transpired in the last 24 hours—wherein the president, the first lady, several of their advisers, a number of Republican senators, a trio of White House journalists, and Kellyanne Conway all came down with COVID-19. President Trump is currently at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center under observation, […]
Joe Biden has worried both his supporters and critics after having prolonged coughing fits while giving speeches in Pennsylvania. The concerns over his health were reignited after Trump tested positive for Covid-19. While doing a small interstate campaign tour on Wednesday, the 77-year-old politician was filmed frequently coughing to the point of sometimes having to clear his throat before continuing speaking. Biden appeared to have put […]

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s attempt to woo estranged left-leaning voters with an economic plan presented as a 21st-century New Deal has been slammed by progressive voters as too little, too late. The Democratic challenger’s economic policy, dubbed “Bidenomics” and aimed at propping up the country’s ailing healthcare, education, and infrastructure with a hefty infusion of taxpayer dollars, has triggered a backlash from the Left, after […]
Dr. Ronny Jackson, the former White House physician now running for Congress as a Trump-boosting Republican, showed up on Fox News on Monday night for the sole purpose of backing President Donald Trump’s baseless accusation that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is taking secret memory-enhancing drugs to assist his debate performance. Over the past year, Fox News host Sean Hannity—an informal adviser and close confidant of […]
Win McNamee/Getty Images After shadow boxing for months, taking jabs and lobbing insults, Donald Trump will meet his challenger in a socially distanced way Tuesday evening for the first of three debates. The bar is high for Trump in the age of COVID. Can he con the country into wanting the chaos he generates for four more years when there are 200,000 Americans dead from the […]

In anticipation of the potential nomination of a staunch Catholic woman to the Supreme Court, allies of President Donald Trump are mounting a preemptive attack on Democrats who may seek to question Judge Amy Coney Barrett about her faith—before any such questions have even been raised. But Democrats say that they have zero interest in taking the bait. “There’s no evidence in the run-up to this […]
US President Donald Trump has repeatedly accused Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden and his son of engaging in corruption in Ukraine during the administration of US President Barack Obama, allegations that the Dem presidential hopeful rejects. Senate Republicans have issued a report lashing out at former vice president and current Democratic presidential hopeful Joe Biden’s son, Hunter Biden, over his role on the board of a […]

Donald Trump has publicly challenged his Democratic presidential rival Joe Biden to take cognitive ability test on numerous occasions, following several slips-of-the-tongue made by the ex-vice president throughout his election campaign. But it’s Russia which has now been apparently blamed for making “allegations” about Biden’s mental health. The United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has released an intelligence bulletin warning about Russia’s alleged efforts to […]
If you want to know who will win the presidency in 60 days, the real question may be this: What crazy story will dominate the news between now and then? In politics, the battle isn’t just over which candidate you prefer. Often, that determination is downstream from a more urgent question: What issue are you thinking about when you go to the ballot box? This explains […]
As nearby volunteers in reflective vests and medical-grade face masks swept broken glass and righted overturned trash cans in Wilmington, Delaware, earlier this summer, former Vice President Joe Biden promised to heal the pain of civil unrest sparked by racist violence. “We are a nation enraged, but we cannot allow our rage to consume us,” Biden vowed, one day after a night of protests and scattered […]
On Thursday, Biden held a community meeting in the small city of Kenosha in Wisconsin, where riots have been taking place since Jacob Blake Jr was shot by police. Democratic candidate Joe Biden attempted a joke when speaking about his corporate tax plan if elected president. “I’m not gonna lay it out for you. I won’t now because they’ll shoot me”, he said . Social media […]
For much of the pandemic presidential cycle, President Donald Trump has invariably cackled at what he deems to be Joe Biden’s “sleepy” and “slow” nature, constructing an image for voters of an older guy “who never leaves his basement,” public health precautions be damned. After the Democratic nominee announced that he would soon phase in physical appearances to several battleground states, it still didn’t seem to […]
