Rudy Giuliani has been suspended from WABC radio and had his show canceled.

Station owner John Catsimatidis says Giuliani had been warned twice by station management about his on-air comments questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 election on his daily talk show.…

So it's okay for Republicans to BUY VOTES when it's the 1% Right Wing Billionaires, but Biden forgiving student loans to EVERYONE so they can boost the economy is Socialism? Got it.

Before Republicans clutch their pearls about whatever Barron Trump is trending for again, maybe they should apologize to Malia and Sasha Obama, Chelsea Clinton, David Hogg, Greta Thunberg, and every single little girl they forced to give birth.

Katie's Sidebar:

IMO it was a bad defense strategy to try to 'slut-shame' Stormy Daniels today on cross for her professional choices. Directly accusing her of being a liar because she works in the adult film industry was a poor decision.

Blonde Patriot 1. Rates fell to 3.5 under Biden in April 2023.

Thanks for coming.

It’s day 12 of the NY election interference trial.

This week, expect the prosecution to focus on proving that he intentionally falsified his business records to cover up payments for his catch and kill schemes.

Also expect a ruling from Merchan re: the additional gag order…

Forecast today: Stormy with a chance of meltdowns.

Judge Merchan, finding Trump violated his gag order a 10th time:

'It appears that the $1,000 fines are not serving as a deterrent.'

'The last thing I want to do is to put you in jail. You are the former president of the United States, and possibly the next president as well.…
