she arguably should have reported as soon as possible. Some of it is gossipy and weird and somewhat funny stuff that really fleshes out the character of a man who tried to overthrow the government when he lost an election.
Like the stuff Kimmel talked about.“This book says that after the election in 2016, Melania renegotiated her prenuptial agreement,” Kimmel said while chuckling. “You know, those two love birds, they’re so romantic.
And it’s really sweet.”“Years ago, before he proposed to his second wife, Marla Maples, they broke up and she started dating Michael Bolton, the singer,” Kimmel said next. “So of course Trump had to get her back.
And once he did, he took her to a Michael Bolton concert, just to rub it in.”“He really showed Michael Bolton,” Kimmel joked, “by buying two tickets to see him in concert. Going to see Michael Bolton to assert dominance in a relationship? That’s gotta be the whitest thing I’ve ever heard anyone do.”Kimmel went on from there, including another pretty gross story about Trump’s love live, and his workplace habits during his presidency.
You can watch the entire monologue at the top of the page. The Trump stuff begins at approximately 2 minutes in.

It is rare for any journalist to land an interview with President Biden, who has been historically hidden from the press in comparison to his predecessors. With just weeks left of 2022, the president has only given four televised sit-downs this year, most recently with CNN anchor Jake Tapper. Last week, The Washington Post reported that anonymous federal agents allege they have "sufficient evidence" to charge Biden's son Hunter with tax and gun crimes. During his interview with the president, Tapper allotted just one question about his embattled son in light of the latest developments. "Personally and politically, how do you react to that?" Tapper asked on Tuesday. Biden responded by reiterating how "proud" he was of his son, who he stressed has overcome his drug addiction and acknowledged the allegation that Hunter falsely claimed he was not addicted to drugs on his gun purchase application. Tapper failed to ask any follow-up questions like whether he would pardon his son if criminal charges were brought.The anchor didn't even touch the looming questions over Hunter Biden's foreign business ties that could implicate his father, avoiding concerns about whether the president was involved in any of his son's financial dealings and if he himself ever received kickbacks.There were also no inquiries about revelations that several of Hunter Biden's associates visited the Obama-Biden White House even after Biden claimed on the campaign trail that he never talked business with his son.
Former President Trump published a letter Friday ripping the House Select Committee on Jan. 6 for failing to investigate what he considers basic questions surrounding the riot. The committee issued a subpoena for testimony from Trump at its business meeting Thursday.
Republicans are questioning the timing of the January 6 Committee's subpoena of former President Trump – more than a year after it started its investigation and just weeks before Republicans are expected to disband the committee if they win back the House. "The Select Committee’s unenforceable subpoena is just another made-for-TV prop," Rep.
Today was the last of the Jan. 6 hearings before the mid-term elections — which means, depending on how things go, they could be the last Jan.
from her impending divorce that actually makes a lot of sense: Hook up with Kanye West.Obviously the inspiration was some very bigoted statements both West and Greene have made in recent days. “One of Putin’s biggest cheerleaders in the United States, Congressdemon Marjorie Taylor Greene, she’s busy trying to scare voters to the polls,” Kimmel said as he got to the topic in his monologue.
Fox News host Greg Gutfeld reflected on former presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard's decision to leave the Democratic Party on "The Five" Tuesday, saying she is the "definition of an individual" and predicting she will be former President Trump's running mate in 2024. The thing I like about Tulsi is that if she were to give you two opinions, you could not predict a third one. Right? She's the definition of an individual.
Democrat Senate candidate Rep. Val Demings of Florida has repeatedly criticized walls in the past, calling for Americans to "tear down" the walls that separate Americans, despite living in a gated community with walls separating her neighborhood from other neighborhoods. Demings has been a staunch opponent of former President Trump’s border wall and called on her supporters to "tear down all of the walls that still separate us from one another" in 2018 while commemorating the fall of the Berlin Wall.
Kanye West has released a new 30-minute documentary titled LAST WEEK. The film, uploaded to YouTube on Monday (October 10), depicts West taking meetings and attending a children's basketball game with his family and ex-wife Kim Kardashian. Watch above.
reported that Walker, who has been vocally anti-abortion, paid for a girlfriend’s abortion in 2009, including images from the woman of a “Get Well” card Walker reportedly sent along with his check covering the expenses. Later in the week, it was reported again by The Daily Beast that the woman leveling the accusations did actually have a child with Herschel Walker in 2011 — though he reportedly encouraged her to have an abortion then, too.
Incumbent Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski is in danger of losing the seat she has held for two decades to a challenger from her own party backed by former President Trump.
Ahead of former President Trump’s rallies this weekend in the key general election battlegrounds of Arizona and Nevada, a recently formed Trump super PAC is launching ads in crucial midterm races in both states. The spots by Make America Great Again Inc., which start running on TV Saturday, were shared first with Fox News Friday. The new ads follow by a day the first commercials released by the super PAC targeting hotly contested Senate races in Ohio and Pennsylvania, where GOP-held open seats are being heavily targeted by the Democrats in November's midterm elections. Fox News' "Hannity" and the Wall Street Journal first reported about the ads. The commercial in Arizona takes aim at Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly and Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, the Democrats’ gubernatorial nominee.
Trevor Noah had plenty to say about the new conservative dating app, The Right Stuff, during Monday’s episode of “The Daily Show.”The app was created by three former Trump officials and is backed by right wing billionaire Peter Thiel. Noah’s segment began with a clip from a Fox News interview with Jon McEntee, one of the founders, who claimed he was motivated to create the app because “girls would just get up or leave abruptly” during dates after learning that he and his friends worked for the Trump administration.“To be fair, you can’t assume these women left the date because of your politics. You can’t assume that,” Noah teased.

New York magazine, “Well, in my own mind, I’ve already made that decision, so nothing factors in anymore.” He added, “I would say my big decision will be whether I go before or after.
