New York CNN —Only 80 hours elapsed between NBC News announcing Ronna McDaniel as a paid contributor and the network ousting her from that very role. But for the leadership at NBC Universal News Group, those were 80 painful hours. “What a sh*t show!” a media executive exclaimed to me Tuesday shortly after Conde relieved McDaniel of her NBC News credentials. “These Radical Left Lunatics are CRAZY and the top people at NBC ARE WEAK,” Trump raged on his Truth Social platform. The objection to McDaniel from both within and outside of NBCU was not that she is a Republican.

And in the most important moment of the 2024 election campaign so far, Biden appeared to succeed. “President Biden is clearly not on his A-game and I think that’s a charitable way to describe it. Republicans complain Biden politicized a great state eventSome Republicans faulted the president’s delivery and said he mistook loudness for strength. And in his speech on Thursday, Biden was advocating a different kind of strength – one rooted in democracy rather than in trying to destroy it. That debate about two vastly different visions of the meaning and the soul of the country will decide the fates of both Biden and Trump come November.

Security has been tightened and seats added to accommodate a wave of new attendees who decided to come after the Oct. 7 attacks. Speakers at the Las Vegas gathering will also include Senator John Thune, the second-ranking Senate Republican; Gov. Mr. DeSantis and Mr. Scott strongly denounced those remarks, and Mr. Trump spent several days walking them back. He also cut aid for Palestinians, and his administration took steps to designate a campaign to boycott Israel as antisemitic. Marc Goldman, a Boca Raton, Fla., investor on the group’s board, said he backed Mr. Trump in 2020 and was likely to support him again.

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump's court appearances are no longer distractions from his campaign to return to the White House. The appearance demonstrated how deftly Trump has used his legal woes to benefit his campaign. Trump spent the day seated at the defense table observing the proceedings, at times leaning to confer with his lawyers. Kevin Wallace, a lawyer in James’ office, promised to link the cited incidents to a more recent loan agreement. Plans for Trump to attend the New York trial's first days were first revealed in legal filings last week.

"Donald Trump is the only Republican that would lose" in 2024, he said. Trump launched a fresh campaign for the Republican nomination on Tuesday, before the final midterm votes have even been tallied. "We have to stay strong and we have to fight and frankly, you better hope a certain person wins the election in 2024," Trump said to cheers. The man who could pose the largest threat to Trump, DeSantis, also received a fervent response as the final featured speaker on Saturday night. Trump's false claims that the 2020 election was fraudulent had "diminished" the party, he said.
