While Republicans remain cowardly silent about the racism running amok at the White House, California’s Sen. Dianne Feinstein is having none of it. “President Trump’s vile comments about Africa and Haiti are despicable and beneath the dignity of the presidency. They unquestionably diminish our country’s standing in the world,” Feinstein said in a statement. Feinstein […]

Donald Trump is starting to realize what a political disaster he has created with his racist remarks about blocking immigration from “shitholes” like Haiti and Africa. His newest response, true to form, is to deny he said it at all, claiming it was “not the language used.” But it is too late for him to […]

The past six days have been rough for Republicans hoping to increase, or at least protect, their Senate majority.

Tuesday’s day of epic failure for Donald Trump was mainly engineered by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), and Trump reacted like the “very stable genius” he clearly is not.

Donald Trump wants “Fire and Fury,” the new book exposing his administration, removed from bookshelves as quickly as possible.

Five days into 2018 “and the “bombshell keeping falling,” CNN’s Brooke Baldwin announced Friday afternoon as she detailed the latest revelations about a Trump White House that seems to be careening out of control.

By all accounts, it was supposed to be easy for Republicans to hold the Senate this year. Ten Democratic incumbents are up for election in states Donald Trump carried. But thanks to Trump’s massive unpopularity and public malaise against the GOP, the party has failed to field good Senate candidates in most states. For months, […]
