President Donald Trump reactivated a feud with singer John Legend and his wife Chrissy Teigen on Sunday night, as the president watched an NBC special on criminal justice reform. Trump ripped Legend for taking credit on the issue, despite doing very little to work with Trump to get the First Step Act passed in December. “Guys like boring musician John Legend and his filthy-mouthed wife, are talking now about how great it is – but I didn’t see them around when we needed help getting it passed,” he wrote. Teigen has a history of criticizing Trump on Twitter long before he ran for president. She spoke about being a “hater” of Trump in a 2017 interview: I’ve actually been a big Donald Trump hater for a long time. If you go back, I’ve been trolling him for about 5 to 7 years now. I’ve been doing this forever and I take pride in that. If you go back to my old ones [tweets] I was like: “You’re the fucking worst” many years ago. I can’t believe somebody could actually do this all day, every day, and still be president. It’s insane. I think he’s the fucking most vile person on this planet and if I mysteriously go missing in the next 4 years then that’s what happened. Teigen immediately took the bait after Trump called her “filthy-mouthed.” “Lol what a pussy ass bitch,” she wrote. “Tagged everyone but me. An honor, mister president.” lol what a pussy ass bitch. tagged everyone but me. an honor, mister president. — christine teigen (@chrissyteigen) September 9, 2019 As her followers rallied to her defense, Teigen wrote, “No guys no please do not make this trend, for it is my fight with #PresidentPussyAssBitch, not yours!!!!!!” Trump appeared incredulous the NBC special on criminal justice reform hosted by Lester Holt did not even mention his successful effort signing an important bill on the subject in 2018. “I got it done with a group of Senators & others who would never have gone for it,” he wrote. “Obama couldn’t come close … I SIGNED IT ...

Former President Donald Trump Leaves Door Open For Possible 2024 Presidential Run
Former President Donald Trump left open the possibility that he may throw his hat into the 2024 presidential race in a Wednesday interview on Newmax. Trump appeared by phone on “Greg Kelly Reports” and discussed with host Greg Kelly his potential level of support for running again, as well what he sees as his administration’s accomplishments. (RELATED: ‘Either Not Telling The Truth Or Mentally Gone’: Trump Rips Biden Over Vaccine Claim) “You know you still command enormous attention, so I want to go back, again, look it’s a no brainer. You’re going to run for president in 2024 right? I mean you got all the support. Why wouldn’t you run?” Kelly began. “Well, we have tremendous support. I won’t say yet, but we have tremendous support, and I’m looking at poll numbers that are through the roof. You saw what happened yesterday when we went up again. I’m the only guy who gets impeached and my numbers go up. Figure that one out,” Trump responded. “Let’s say somebody gets impeached, typically, your numbers would go down. They would go down like a dead balloon. But the numbers are very good. They’re very high. I think they’re higher than they were before the election. And they were high at the election,” he continued. A Politico/Morning Consult poll was released Monday that showed Trump leading a hypothetically crowded Republican primary field with an overwhelming 53% support. The person with the second highest percentage of the vote was former Vice President Mike Pence with 12%. All other potential candidates were in the single digits. “And I like the job. Look, we did a great job. We rebuilt our military. Think of it. We lowered taxes, got rid of regulations. How about Space Force? Just space force alone would be a big achievement. First time in seventy four years, a new branch of the U.S. military. So all of the things we’ve done,” Trump continued. He went on to describe how his administration “built the wall” along the southern ...

BUTLER, Pa. (KDKA/AP) — The Butler County Republican Committee of Pennsylvania voted to censure Senator Pat Toomey (R-PA) over his vote to convict former President Donald Trump during his second impeachment trial. “The BCRC considers his votes to be in blatant violation of the U.S. Constitution and the Rule of Law,” the committee said in an email.

Pat Toomey Republican Party committee members in Pennsylvania were meeting remotely Wednesday night, possibly for hours, in what is expected to include a discussion of whether to censure U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey . A censure vote is a symbolic gesture that may have no real effect on Toomey, who announced in October that he will not run again for office. Following his vote to convict, Toomey said in part of the former president that “His betrayal of the Constitution and his oath of office required conviction.” President Trump was acquitted of inciting the insurrection during the impeachment trial in the Senate.

Murkowski's comments come two days after rioters breached the Capitol as Vice President Pence and lawmakers were counting the Electoral College vote. ADVERTISEMENT Trump, who has since said he will support an orderly transfer of power, has issued unsupported claims for weeks that the election was "rigged" and encouraged his supporters to gather at the Capitol on Wednesday ahead of the violence. Murkowski also appeared to acknowledge that Trump is unlikely to resign, even as House Democrats appear poised to impeach him for a second time and there are growing calls for Pence and the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment. “I think he should leave. He said he’s not going to show up. He’s not going to appear ... at the inauguration. He hasn’t been focused on what is going on with COVID. He’s either been golfing or he’s been inside the Oval Office fuming and throwing every single person who has been loyal and faithful to him under the bus, starting with the vice president," Murkowski said. "He doesn’t want to stay there. He only wants to stay there for the title. He only wants to stay there for his ego. He needs to get out. He needs to do the good thing, but I don’t think he’s ...
