The Republican National Committee will stop covering former President Donald Trump's legal bills if he announces a presidential bid for 2024 too soon, according to reports. The RNC has paid almost $2 million in legal fees for the former president as he faces different investigations into his financial dealings and conduct during the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, a committee official told ABC News. However, those payments will end soon after Trump announces a reelection bid because of the RNC’s policies on maintaining neutrality in elections — meaning if the former president announces a bid too soon, the RNC could stop contributing to his legal costs.

The GOP establishment is part of the problem, not the solution.

Petty move. You think Trump cares about $2M in RNC-paid legal fees? This is a never-Trumper move that further shows how petty and disconnected the RNC is from boots-on-the-ground America. When Trump wins, he needs to gut and replace the RNC as it smells just like a swamp (or better yet--a sewer).

Which idiots at the RNC came up with this?? THEY didn't earn a penny of whatever money they give to any candidate. That money comes directly from people in the party who have, for decades, believed that they are contributing to a cause that represents their wishes and principles. But, over and over again the RNC fails to honor their members. RNC mailings have either been directly dropped into my circular file OR returned in their postage-paid envelopes with a few carefully-chosen sentiments written inside. This "threat" of theirs merely serves to expose them as our enemy. I hope PDT had a good laugh when he read about the pittance they are holding over his head.

I return RNC solicitations I get with a note telling them to get back to me AFTER the Party ditches McConnell and McCarthy and gets some REAL leadership. My money goes to candidates NOT the incumbent support committee.

Neither party is looking out for the country. Quite the opposite. They have wrecked it. The RNC is a reflection of Washington Republicans, and it's clear they do not want Trump. They should all be fired. Both parties. They are doing the country a huge disservice.

Stupid move. Don’t they know President Trump never backs away from a challenge? If the RNC does this, it will likely have the opposite effect.

The RNC is dead to me. I thought I had finally escaped their mailing list but I was wrong. I received a “please donate” envelope that had only my name and address with Donald J. Trump in the upper right corner. I was about to open it when as I turned it over there it was … from the RNC. Straight into the trash.

The RNC paying for Trump? They ARE the RINO party, only supporting other RINOs! Only those currently elected get money from them-- Newcomers, even those who won their primaries, don't get support, only the old low-T RINOs like McPain The grassroots public has figured this out, and only donates to INDIVIDUAL candidates who are not part of the Establishment swamp in league with the demonrats

If this is verified, Ronna Romney must be FIRED immediately! President Trump needs to tell everyone to donate to candidates directly. Stop all funding of the RNC and similar Republican PACs. This is a final battle between the establishment and MAGA for control of the money.

The dumbest thing President Trump could do is announce before the mid-terms are over. He would give the Democrats what they want, and that would be to stop talking about inflation, high gas prices, and the horrible economy the Democrats have given us. He'd take all the oxygen out of the room, and none of the candidates would break through.

Trump is the engine that gets contributions to the RNC. I think they should go back and think about this. Let's be frank, Trump is the most popular politician in America. I don't see any lines to hear anyone else speak.

Former CNN host Chris Cuomo is set to join NewsNation as a prime-time host beginning this fall. The hire was revealed as Cuomo appeared for an interview with NewsNation on Tuesday, his first television appearance since he was fired from CNN last year for his role in helping his brother, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, combat sexual misconduct allegations. "I want to build something special here," Cuomo said, adding that he does not think he cannot go back to what people see as the "big game" and touted a need for "insurgent media." A statement from NewsNation was also released.

There is a multitude of remedies for digging an economy out of a recession or avoiding an economic recession altogether. There tends to be, however, a common thread amongst each of these methods. Since conditions that drive a recession typically emerge over long periods of time, it generally takes a comparable amount of time for our government officials and the Federal Reserve to correct our collective course. If our Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is lagging due to certain contributors, for instance, an injection of cash into the economy via government spending can jump-start our economy and push GDP growth back to the positive side of the ledger.

Delaware State Police considered Hunter Biden the victim in an October 2018 incident in which his handgun was discarded in a grocery store trashcan near a Delaware high school, according to a source with knowledge of the investigation into the incident. No arrests were made as a result of the incident because Hunter declined to press charges against his sister-in-law, Hallie Biden, the source said. Hallie, who was in a tumultuous relationship with Hunter at the time, took Hunter's gun from his car on Oct. 23, 2018, wrapped it in a shopping bag, and threw it in a trashcan outside a

A progressive movement to install liberal activists in district attorney's offices across the country is beginning to backfire, with voters in some cities reconsidering their choices and Republicans in others organizing ahead of the next election . Liberal billionaire George Soros has sunk millions of dollars over the past several years into boosting candidates that have advocated reforms such as ending cash bail, barring prosecutions of minors as adults, and declining to bring cases against a host of less serious, but frequently disruptive, violations of the law. Some of the candidates he helped install have presided over severe increases in violence.

We have heard it before, “No, Hollywood is not responsible for America’s unique gun culture.” This is often followed by a “gun grab” narrative. Of course, Hollyweird wants you to believe this – they have a financial interest in doing so. Others would disagree. Finally, we have one Hollyweird celebrity willing to come out and say so publicly. A recent “Real Time” with Bill Maher’s monologue gave a scathing indictment that Hollyweird has a significant responsibility regarding the cause of gun violence in America. Below are some excerpts from Mahar’s monologue. “When liberals scream do something after a mass shooting, why aren’t we also dealing

Senate Republicans may yet sink House-passed legislation that would essentially codify federal same-sex marriage rights granted by the Supreme Court in 2015. But that was far from certain Wednesday as the Senate began informally considering the Respect for Marriage Act, which cleared the House 24 hours earlier with unanimous Democratic support and 47 out of 204 available Republican votes. There immediately appeared to be four GOP votes for the bill, while several other Senate Republicans, including Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, were noncommittal.

For many of us, we never particularly cared for Curt Schilling during his MLB playing days. Schilling played for five different teams – including the much-despised Red Sox and Phillies – and was considered a staff ace for most of his career. Yet while many of us rooted against Schilling and his teams, very few of us ever questioned his skills or tenacity; see Schilling’s 2004 ‘bloody sock’ incident for reference. If we’re being honest, most of us would have loved to have him pitching for our team. During his career, Schilling was famous as a ballplayer and nothing else. If he ever weighed in on political

More than 150 buses traveling from Arizona and Texas have transported nearly 6,000 migrants to the nation’s capital over the past three months, and Democrats in Washington are complaining that they cannot accommodate the mass releases. The operation has collectively cost both border states millions of taxpayer dollars, including $6.8 million in Texas to date. But Republican Gov. Greg Abbott, who initiated the operation in mid-April, said the move is having the desired results — getting Washington politicians a little taste of how communities have been inundated under President Joe Biden.

As an 82-year-old man, Donald Pierce likely had vague recollections of the end of World War II and vivid memories from the decades that followed. There’s no doubt Mr. Pierce witnessed examples of beauty over those years, as well as episodes of utter viciousness. He could likely recall instances of the violence that accompanied Jim Crow prior to 1964. He would have seen detailed footage and coverage of the 1970 slaughter of four protesting students at Kent State University, and of course, he saw extensive documentation of the mercilessness that was unleashed on September 11th, 2001. While Mr. Pierce was coming down the home stretch in the November of his years,

Inflation accelerated to an explosive 9.1% for the 12 months ending in June, according to the consumer price index, the highest level in four decades. The much-anticipated numbers reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Wednesday revealed that inflation is still going strong despite the Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes and is near the worst it has been since the Great Inflation that helped bring President Ronald Reagan to office. The soaring inflation has eaten into President Joe Biden’s approval ratings as he and Democrats approach the midterm elections. Consumer prices have been rising fast since last August, especially for staples such as food and gas.

There are certain numerical milestones that hold particular significance, and that’s especially true for certain statistical categories. For instance, when a baseball player’s batting average dips below the .200 level, a point at which he is considered to be below “The Mendoza Line” in traditional baseball vernacular, we know he’s having a rough time at the plate. But if the numbers also show that he is on pace to strikeout 190 times during a season, it sheds even more light on his poor performance. He’s not just making a lot of outs; he’s making a lot of unproductive outs.

Rob Reiner has made many wild and unsubstantiated claims on Twitter. On Friday, he managed to top himself by declaring that Joe Biden is the best president in nearly 60 years. The result has been widespread ridicule, with the term “Meathead” trending on Twitter late Friday. (“Meathead” refers to the dim-witted character Reiner played on the sitcom All in the Family). Reiner, who was one of Biden’s biggest Hollywood fundraisers during the 2020 election, trumpeted his opinion while acknowledging that it goes against the prevailing popular sentiment. As Breitbart News reported, a recent Yahoo News/YouGov survey found that just one in five Americans want Biden to run for reelection in 2024.

The people who really run the United States of America have made it clear that they can’t, and won’t, if they can help it, allow Donald Trump to be president again. In fact, they made this clear in 2020, in a series of public statements. Simply for quoting their words in an essay for The American Mind, I was mercilessly mocked and attacked. But they were quite clear. Trump won’t be president at noon, Jan. 20, 2021, even if we have to use the military to drag him out of there. “Anti-Trump hysteria is in the final analysis not about Trump.” If the regime felt that strongly back then,

I have no idea where the video came from, but I think it’s worth noting because it seems to show that the Democrat party has so successfully racialized America in the last 15 years or so that we are beginning to live out Charles Manson’s “Helter Skelter” madness. Manson’s dream was to destroy society, so it’s up to us to recognize what’s going on and fight back against this almost apocalyptic racial division. The video is a simple one: Someone inside a busy urban venue (it seems like a coffee shop) is filming a brutal beatdown on the street outside. Two young Black men are attacking an older White man.

Hershey Co (HSY.N)said on Thursday it would fall short of meeting demand for the all-important Halloween and Christmas holiday seasons this year, blaming a scarcity of raw ingredients and difficulties in securing suppliers. Pandemic-induced global supply chain disruptions and the Russia-Ukraine war have crunched supplies of cocoa, edible oil and other food ingredients, pinching production lines of packaged food companies around the world. Hershey Chief Executive Officer Michele Buck said those issues, along with the company's focus on meeting demand during non-holiday periods, would lead to a likely shortage during Halloween, but added that sales will still top last year.

The U.S. government has reached a new deal with Moderna for 65 million additional COVID-19 vaccine doses, the Biden administration announced on July 29. The deal is valued at $1.7 billion. Moderna will sell doses of its vaccine that target Omicron subvariants, according to the agencies that announced the agreement. The actual contract has not yet been made public. Moderna and other vaccine makers have been updating their COVID-19 vaccine formulations because the vaccines are based on the Wuhan strain, which has not been prevalent since 2020. The vaccines have proven increasingly worse at protecting recipients as newer variants emerge.

The nationwide baby formula shortage has worsened with 70 percent of all brands reported out-of-stock, despite President Joe Biden's efforts to make infant milk more accessible. Families in Rhode Island and Vermont have been hardest hit by the shortage with out-of-stock rates at 79 percent and 78 percent, respectively. Biden and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have made it easier for foreign manufacturers to get shipments into the country, and appealed to companies such as Nestle and Reckitt to step up production. French consumer goods company Danone on Wednesday said it had shipped more than 750,000 cans of its flagship Aptamil baby formula to the U.S. from Europe,
