ExploreBiden campaign launches pre-debate offensive across GeorgiaThe Savannah field office opening comes amid a broad push across the state by the Trump campaign. Last week, the Trump organization opened headquarters in suburban metro Atlanta and began training volunteers for a voter mobilization effort. Trump lost Georgia by fewer than 12,000 votes four years ago, with the winner, Joe Biden, benefitting from a 20% increase in voter turnout in 2020 compared to 2016.

Republican Sens. Tommy Tuberville (AL) and Mike Braun (IN) on Monday introduced a joint resolution under the Congressional Review Act that if passed would repeal the federal overtime rule set to go into effect on July 1. Introduction of the resolution follows action in the House of Representatives earlier this month also designed to block implementation of the rule. Given the Senate’s control by Democrats and a president who is a Democrat, however, it is unclear whether the legislators’ effort would be successful in blocking the rule. The current pay threshold for overtime pay exemption is $35,568 per year or…

Ahead of the first big showdown between Donald Trump and Joe Biden at the debate this week, the Trump campaign’s attacks on Biden are getting a big boost from the Kremlin’s propaganda machine.A pool reporter for Russian President Vladimir Putin and several popular pro-Kremlin outlets claimed on Thursday that the “top news” for the week included, among other things, that Biden “could not get into a car on his own”—a claim made by none other than the Trump campaign.“Crooked Joe Biden—who is hardly ambulatory at this point—had a really hard time getting into the SUV,” the Trump War Room account…
In today’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, U.S. Senator Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) pressed one of President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees, Karla Marie Campbell, on why she repeatedly lied under oath about her ties to a left-wing organization that has advocated for the abolition of America’s police and the destruction of Israel. “I have to say, I’ve never seen a witness—never—in five years on this committee, sit here and lie to us and change the story person to person,” said Senator Hawley. Watch the full exchange here or above. Senator Hawley further signaled his opposition to Campbell’s nomination after she wouldn’t explain her previous financial support for a…
Former president Donald Trump expanded his portrayal of migrants as violent with a suggestion that they could be pitted in fights for entertainment.During a speech to Christian conservatives on Saturday afternoon, and again at a rally in Philadelphia that evening, Trump claimed that he told his friend Dana White, president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, that he should start a spinoff competition featuring migrants, as part of his riff on restricting immigration.“Did anyone ever hear of Dana White?” Trump asked during his speech at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s “Road to Majority” conference in Washington. “ … I said, ‘Dana,…
Former Attorney General Bill Barr is backing his old boss in the November election despite their very public fallout — because he believes the “far left” is an even greater threat to the US. Barr, 73, disputed the notion that former President Donald Trump will be worse for democracy than President Biden, and warned about the rise of the “far left.” “The Biden administration is in fact the greater threat to democracy,” Barr told Fox News’ “Cavuto Live” on Saturday. The former attorney general clashed with Donald Trump over the 2020 election. AFP via Getty Images “I think that they have…
A farm bill championed by Senate Republicans provides a safety net for grain producers and ranchers, key lawmakers contend. Sen. John Boozman of Arkansas, the ranking member of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry, stated in a news release that the framework answers the call of helping farmers and ranchers. “We believe that our framework reflects the chamber’s shared commitments across all 12 titles while putting more farm in the farm bill, something we’ve been calling for since the onset,” Boozman said. “Our farmers, ranchers, foresters, consumers, lenders and other stakeholders helped us fashion a farm bill that meets their…
The fundraising pitch from Donald Trump was neither accurate nor subtle.It read: “1 MONTH UNTIL ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE! THEY WANT TO SENTENCE ME TO DEATH.”The message blasted out to his supporters was a reference to the former president’s sentencing scheduled for July 11, when he faces fines or possible jail time after being convicted on 34 charges of business fraud in connection with hush money paid to an adult-film star. A death sentence is not under consideration in the case. Neither is a “GUILLOTINE,” as another fundraising pitch suggested last week.The incendiary emails are part of a concerted strategy…
