EXCLUSIVE: The Trump campaign is calling for additional 2024 presidential debates and for them to take place "much earlier" than initially proposed by the debate commission, with former President Trump telling Fox News Digital that he is "totally committed" to debating President Biden "anytime, anywhere, anyplace." Fox News Digital exclusively obtained a letter Trump co-campaign managers Susie Wiles and Chris LaCivita sent Thursday to The Commission on Presidential Debates co-chairs Frank Farenkopf Jr. and Antonia Hernandez. Wiles and LaCivita told the commission they were writing "in agreement with the pending letter," reported by The New York Times, "from television networks...

Speculation is heating up about former President Trump’s choice of running mate. But the bigger question is, does it matter? The former president is so uncommonly polarizing that there will be few voters who can be shifted one way or another by a vice presidential candidate. Trump being Trump, his eclipse of whoever is on the lower half of the ticket is likely to be total.

(Apr. 2, 2024) — Introduction In 2015, two former high officials in the Office of the Solicitor General in the U.S. Department of Justice – Messrs. Paul Clement, a Republican, and Neal Katyal, a Democrat – jointly authored an article on the Constitution’s “natural born Citizen” term (hereafter, for brevity, “nbC”). Entitled “On the Meaning of ‘Natural Born Citizen,’” the article appeared in the March 2015 edition of the Harvard Law Review Forum (128 Harv.L.Rev.F. 161), which describes itself as the “the online companion to the print journal (i.e., the Harvard Law Review) and where “[i]t hosts scholarly discussion of...

Joe Biden is the least religion-friendly president in United States history despite his claims of being a “devout Catholic,” writes Catholic League President Bill Donohue. The latest case in point is the Biden administration’s attempt to portray its controversial ban on Christian-themed Easter eggs as standard White House practice. This misinformation — which Snopes and Politifact have echoed — is verifiably false, Dr. Donohue noted in an essay on Wednesday, citing former President George W. Bush’s practice of allowing religiously themed eggs.

Bill Maher says he’s committed to ensuring that former President Trump doesn’t return to the Oval Office. “I’ll do everything I can to make sure that doesn’t happen, but none of us have much influence,” the HBO “Real Time” host said of Trump winning his rematch against President Biden, in an interview with Variety that published Wednesday. “What I have decided to do is not preemptively give up my nervous system to Donald Trump like I did last time, or maybe the last two times,” Maher, 68, said. “If he wins, he wins,” he added. “The country is polarized. It’s...

On Friday’s edition of NBC’s “MTP Now,” Biden Senior Advisor and Assistant and Director of the White House Office of Intergovernmental Affairs Tom Perez responded to critics who say the Biden administration’s policies are too pro-Israel by saying that the White House hears “the concerns of our friends in Michigan, in Illinois, and across the country. And that’s why the President has called for a six-week ceasefire.” Host Kristen Welker asked, “What do you say, though, to these leaders and to these communities who say not enough is being done, that they want to see a permanent ceasefire — and...

No Labels may finally have a candidate in consideration for its third-party "unity ticket" in the 2024 presidential election. Sources familiar with the group's efforts to field a third-party ticket tell ABC News that No Labels representatives have had meetings with former Georgia GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan about running as the group's presidential candidate. Duncan wouldn't comment on this report, but isn't shutting down speculation. On Friday, No Labels voted to move forward with the effort to field a bi-partisan challenge to the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. According to the...

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said Friday on ABC’s “The View” that former President Donald Trump was not qualified to be president because he “sucks up” to dictators like Russian President Vladimir Putin. Schumer said, “Putin is a threat. Look, there’s no doubt about it. You know, I was just in Ukraine, by the way, and I saw the bravery of Zelenskyy and the Ukrainian people. They are just fighting as hard as they can for a country they love. They’re beautiful.” He continued, “When Trump says Putin is not a danger to our society, that sends shivers down my...

CNN — President Joe Biden delivered his annual State of the Union address on Thursday. His statements were mostly accurate, a CNN fact check found, but he also made a smattering of claims that were false, misleading or lacking key context. Biden repeated his familiar misleading boast about how he had supposedly reduced the federal budget deficit, failing to explain that the decline overwhelmingly occurred because emergency pandemic spending from President Donald Trump’s tenure expired as schedule. He falsely claimed that “not anymore” would big companies be able to pay no federal income tax, overstating the impact of the 15%...

Podcast host Joe Rogan speculated the Democratic Party is preparing to swap out President Biden with California Gov. Gavin Newsom on the 2024 presidential ticket. Biden has been dogged by questions about his mental acuity since before his presidency, but those concerns reached a fever pitch when Special Counsel Robert Hur released his report, which described Biden as a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” “Basically, you can’t prosecute this guy because he’s non compos mentis, but you can let him run for the President of the United States in November… so that’s the that’s the world that...

Republican presidential candidate former Gov. Nikki Haley (R-SC) said Tuesday on “The Hugh Hewitt Show” that former President Donald Trump was “unhinged.” When asked about Trump questioning where her deployed husband was, Haley said, “This is about every military family who sacrifices and knows what it’s like to have their loved one deployed. And this is about a pattern of Donald Trump. I mean, he has said this before where he calls military members suckers or losers. We know that when he was at Arlington Cemetery, he said, ‘What was in it for them?’ He has never even been close...

KENNEBUNKPORT, Maine (AP) — It seems former President George H.W. Bush felt the need for speed in the waters off Maine, where he kept a nearly 1,000 horsepower speedboat. And for the right price, someone else can experience its excitement. The vessel is set to go up for auction on Thursday during the 2024 Presidential Salute auction in Houston, said Hutton Higgins, a spokesperson for the George & Barbara Bush Foundation. Proceeds from selling the 38-foot (11.5-meter) speedboat “Fidelity V” will be used to expand offerings at the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library & Museum and The Bush School of...

Hungary's first female president, Katalin Novak, resigned on Saturday after mounting pressure for pardoning a man convicted of helping to cover up sexual abuse in a children's home. Novak, 46, a close ally of conservative Prime Minister Viktor Orban and the youngest person to hold the office of president, resigned just a week after her presidential pardon was first reported. The revelation caused a public uproar and demands from the opposition for her and former Justice Minister Judit Varga to quit. Varga, a rising star in Orban's ruling Fidesz party, resigned as a lawmaker on Saturday. 'I made a mistake......
