Kamala Harris has announced that she will not be entering the race to become the next Governor of California.

The former Vice President of the United States has spent the “past six months” reflecting on how she can continue fighting for the American people and while many have asked her to run for Governor, she has decided not to run in this election.

“For now, my leadership—and public service—will not be in elected office,” Harris said in a statement released on Wednesday (July 30).

It was believed that Harris would be the frontrunner in the election had she decided to enter the race. Now, the field appears to be wide open.

President Donald Trump continued his Profit Off the Presidency World Tour this week with a stop in Scotland, where he opened a new private golf course. You, dear taxpayer, footed the bill for most of the trip.

On Monday, Trump cut the ribbon at the Trump International Golf Links Aberdeen, which will officially open to the paying public on Aug. 13. The president was accompanied by his sons, Eric and Don Jr., who have taken the helm of their fathers real estate, licensing, and growing cryptocurrency empire while he occupies the White House.

The White House lashed out at Joy Behar after she said on ABC’s The View that Donald Trump’s attacks on his predecessor, Barack Obama, were motivated by jealousy, while noting the current president’s role in the attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021.

On Wednesday, Behar and the other View co-hosts talked about Obama’s response to Trump’s claim that his predecessor was guilty of treason. The Trump administration claims that Obama and his team conspired to alter intelligence assessments to boost the notion Russia was attempting to help Trump get elected in 2016.

Obama’s spokesperson called the allegations “bizarre” and a “weak attempt at distraction.”

On The View, Behar said, “First of all, who tried to overthrow the government on January 6th? Who was that again?”

Behar added, “The thing about him is he is so jealous of Obama, because Obama is everything that he is not.

The 2025 Espy Awards will likely be remembered for Shane Gillis’ monologue, even if the comedy was largely forgettable.

Gillis, a standup comedian and the co-creator and star of Netflix’s Tires, is probably best known for lasting like four hours at Saturday Night Live — Lorne Michaels felt compelled to fire Gillis after some non-pc clips of a 2018 episode of Matt and Shane’s Secret Podcast were resurfaced — though he has gone on to host the show, twice.

By now, you’ve probably read both praise and criticism on Gillis’ monologue — he’s that kind of comic. Gillis is wildly popular among his base, and controversial among non-fans. This was always gonna go some sort of way, and ESPN executives knew that when they gave Gillis the gig. Gillis has appeared on the network’s College GameDay show, where he (internet-)famously got into it with Nick Saban, an all-time great...

Comedian Shane Gillis was met with mixed reactions from the crowd as he hosted the ESPYs on Wednesday night, though he did make one move that “The View” host and former stand-up comedian Joy Behar didn’t appreciate.

Early on in his monologue, Gillis made a joke about Donald Trump’s desire to host a UFC fight at the White House, with the punchline being “the last time he staged a fight in D.C., Mike Pence almost died.” When the joke fell flat but got some scattered applause, Gillis told the crowd, “you don’t have to do that. It was fine, I didn’t write it.”

And that shade toward his writers irked Behar pretty good.

“Never do that,” she said on Thursday’s episode of the ABC talk show. “Johnny Carson was on the air for, I don’t know, a 100 years? Never once did he say,...

You know you’re having a tough night at the ESPYs when People calls you out for a performance “that appeared to fall flat.” For Shane Gillis, host of the sports awards show, the boos were another sign it wasn’t going great.

Gillis did get laughs at some points during his opening monologue. Bill Belichick and his girlfriend Jordan Hudson are always fair game, apparently, and the comedian got his biggest laughs with jokes like this after a Shohei Otani bookie bit: “A bookie is what Bill Belichick reads to his girlfriend before bedtime. They read, Very Horny Caterpillar, The Little Engine That Could But Needed A Pill First and, of course, the classic, Good Night Boobs.”

His follow-up Belichick joke wasn’t as well received, for obvious reasons: “He won six Super Bowls. He’s dating a hot 24-year-old. Maybe if you guys won six Super Bowls, you...

On June 24, it was announced that comedian Shane Gillis would be hosting this year’s Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Awards. The news was met with some excitement among fans, but when he walked onto the stage at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles, things changed.

Unfortunately, Gillis’ jokes seem to have fallen flat as he struggled through his long monologue where he took a dig at anyone and everyone. From Donald Trump to basketball player Caitlin Clark, Gillis spared no one.

While he received a few laughs here and there, the audience present at the venue just seemed a little too uncomfortable and this didn’t go unnoticed by the comedian himself.

No One Was Safe From Shane Gillis at the Espy Awards Shane Gillis hosting the Espy awards | Credits: ABC

Hosting an award ceremony comes with certain expectations and jokes at the expense of famous names are pretty common.

Host Shane Gillis brought his trademark brand of combative humor to the opening monologue of Wednesday night’s Espy Awards in Hollywood, drawing a mixed response from the audience of professional athletes and Hollywood celebrities.

The host’s jabs came in contrast to the high volume of kudos bestowed on major figures in women’s sports, including gymnast Simone Biles, rugby star Ilona Maher, recently retired soccer superstar Alex Morgan, retired WNBA great Diana Taurasi, tennis star Sloane Stephens and Penn State volleyball coach Katie Schumacher-Cawley. Olympic gymnast Suni Lee got the nod for best comeback athlete, a gender mixed category.

Morgan and Taurasi were jointly honored with the ESPYs Icon Award for their work beyond the game to advance women’s sports and improve working conditions for players.

“The way you opened up doors for women outside the game is legendary,” Taurasi told Morgan. The two-time Olympic soccer medalist...

Vaughn Hillyard will join MSNBC as senior White House correspondent, as the network has hired a group of journalists for its team in advance of its split from Comcast and sister network NBC News.

Hillyard has been an NBC News White House correspondent but has contributed to MSNBC.

Also joining MSNBC will be Laura Barrón-López as White House correspondent, David Noriega as MSNBC correspondent, and Marc Santia as an investigative correspondent.

The split, expected to be completed later this year, has left questions of who will go where. Figures like Andrea Mitchell and José Díaz-Balart are staying with NBC News, while figures like Ken Dilanian are landing at MSNBC.

MSNBC will be part of Versant, the newly branded entity of cable networks and other media properties formerly owned by Comcast. With NBC News no longer a sister network, MSNBC is building up its own news division.

Hillyard has covered three presidential elections for the network,...

A jury convicted a former Republican political strategist on two counts of stalking Friday after prosecutors alleged that Daniel Duffey sent harassing text messages and letters to the victim and his family, the Montana Free Press reported. According to witnesses, Duffey also created a fake Grindr account under the victim’s name and asked app users to attend the victim’s wedding to have sex with him.

Duffey was political director for Greg Gianforte’s 2020 gubernatorial campaign until he was fired because he allegedly repeatedly hit a parked car with his car door,...

When I was growing up, the lessons of 1984 – the dystopian novel by George Orwell – were all thought to pertain to the Soviet Union. Big Brother was Josef Stalin – controlling the thoughts of his people, punishing dissenters.

If that had been correct, the dissolution of the Soviet Union and freeing of its similarly totalitarian satellite regimes would have rendered the novel irrelevant to our present times. 1984 would have been a mere artifact reflecting outdated concerns of an earlier era marked by sinister eradication of personal liberties. Turns out that’s not the case.

Raoul Peck’s vital documentary Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5, which premiered tonight at the Cannes Film Festival, makes it startlingly clear the degree to which we are living in Orwellian times. The parallels between the nightmare of 1984 – where Big Brother dictates every facet of life – and Trump’s America have not been properly acknowledged. This film does that.

Kamala Harris is stepping out for the 2025 Met Gala!

The 60-year-old 49th Vice President of the United States posed for photos before heading to the big fashion event held on Monday evening (May 5) at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

For the event, VP Harris looked sophisticated in a black and cream-colored silk dress, by Off-White, featuring a silk scarf and dramatic sleeve.

“The precise simplicity of this black and cream look for Kamala D. Harris complements her own strength and confidence, two qualities I consider to be the core of dandyism,” Off-White Creative Director Ib Kamara shared in a statement.

VP Harris was joined by husband Doug Emhoff, who looked sharping in a coordinating black tux.

The Met Gala will focus on menswear and suiting this year with a “Tailored for You” dress code. The event will celebrate the opening of the museum’s new exhibition “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,...

As Donald Trump’s tariffs continue to keep the stock market spiraling, “The View” host Alyssa Farah Griffin says there is another man encouraging the president — one who was actively kept out of meetings with Trump during his first term for worry over something like this.

In discussing the current stock market situation on Monday morning, Farah Griffin argued that Trump’s ideas on tariffs and trade wars might work, “if we were the 13 original colonies.” But, considering America is decidedly not those colonies anymore, it is simply unfeasible to have every good that Americans use and/or consume be manufactured in the country.

Farah Griffin also pointed out that, having worked in the first Trump administration, there’s one man who is steering Trump in this ill-advised direction.

“I want to talk about one person who’s having an outsized influence on this trade war that has tanked the markets,...

Financial markets are taking a nosedive for the second straight day amid global panic and investor anxiety over Donald Trump’s implementation of broad tariffs on foreign imports. Economists are warning that the president’s actions are putting not just the United States but the world at risk of a global recession, and that working-class Americans will experience acute economic pain. Fret not, says the president, he is apparently playing chess while the world is playing checkers — whatever that means. Even some of his most prominent GOP supporters aren’t buying it.

Cruel Intentions will not return for a second season. The 2024 followup to the 1999 movie of the same name released its first (and now, only) installment last November.

The show endured a long road to release, starting first at Freevee in 2021 before moving to Prime Video in 2023. Before that, NBC had ordered and cancelled a different pilot inspired by the movie in 2016, and an attempted prequel series from Fox also never made it to air.

Amazon’s series starred Sarah Catherine Hook, Zac Burgess, Savannah Lee Smith, Sara Silva, John Harlan Kim, Khobe Clarke, Sean Patrick Thomas and Brooke Lena Johnson. Neal H. Moritz and Roger Kumble who produced (the former) and wrote and directed (the latter) the original film, also served as executive producers.

Per the description, Cruel Intentions “follows the elite students of Manchester College, a Washington, D.C.-adjacent university, where reputation means everything, fraternities and sororities are the gold standard,...

It’s a bittersweet symphony, that’s life: Prime Video’s series-adaptation of Cruel Intentions has been cancelled after one season, TVLine has confirmed.

The show — which debuted Nov. 21, 2024 — transported the iconic 1999 movie that starred Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon to the Washington, D.C.-adjacent Manchester College. It followed sorority president Caroline Merteuil (played by First Kill’s Sarah Catherine Hook), who was determined to have Annie Grover (the Gossip Girl reboot’s Savannah Lee Smith), the daughter of the Vice President of the United States, join her sorority, thereby saving the Greek system from being...

Hamilton will no longer play the Kennedy Center next season in light of President Trump’s takeover of the institution.

The hit musical was set to perform at the Kennedy Center in March 2026, at what would have been the show’s third engagement at the theater. However, lead producer Jeffrey Seller cited the firings of the Kennedy Center president and the chairman of the board, as well as the cancellation of programming at the center, as reasons not to move forward.

“Given the recent actions, our show simply cannot, in good conscience, participate and be a part of this new culture that is being imposed on the Kennedy Center,” Seller said in a statement.

In February, Trump became chairman of the institution and ousted Democratic members of the Kennedy Center Board. The contract of Kennedy Center president Deborah F. Rutter was terminated, as was that of chairman David M. Rubenstein,...

Meghan McCain can’t seem to quit talking about The View and directed her latest shot at conservative co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin.

McCain, a former co-host of the ABC daytime talk show, went out of her way to defend her friend Tulsi Gabbard, who recently was confirmed as U.S, Director of National Intelligence.

Griffin quoted a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, from Christopher Miller, the Financial Times‘ Chief Correspondent in Kyiv. In the post, Miller shares Gabbard’s “talking points that could have come straight from the Kremlin.”

“How serious Republicans supported Tulsi Gabbard for Odni is beyond me,” Griffin posted.

Feeling the urge to defend Gabbard, whom she got close to after making an appearance on The View, McCain quoted Griffin’s post and said, “How anyone thinks you represent any Republican woman in America is beyond me.”

At the first rally to kick off his 2024 campaign, Donald Trump played a bizarre rendition of the national anthem in which he himself recites the Pledge of Allegiance while a “choir” of January 6 rioters sing the national anthem. It would become a regular feature at his rallies.

Some of the choir on that recording were convicted of assaulting police officers. The song was released as a single, with proceeds going to the prisoners and their families. One of the producers of that single was Kash Patel, who also established a...

Production is underway on Season 3 of The Diplomat, Netflix's political thriller starring Keri Russell (The Americans) as Ambassador Kate Wyler and Rufus Sewell (Dark City) as her husband, Hal. Allison Janney plays U.S. President Grace Penn, and in a stroke of casting genius, her The West Wing cast mate Bradley Whitford has been cast as Todd the First Husband.

Adding to The West Wing reunion is The Diplomat's creator, showrunner, and executive producer, Debora Cahn, who was also a producer and writer on the famous, multiple award-winning NBC political series. Cahn said of the casting of Whitford (via Netflix), “Brad was the fantasy version of Todd — for all of us. We still can’t believe it came true.”

And things are going to be quite interesting for the characters, as Cahn explained:

“Season 3 flips the chessboard. In Season 3, Kate lives the particular nightmare that is getting what you want.

Former Fox News host Pete Hegseth was confirmed as Defense Secretary Friday night on a narrow vote in the U.S. Senate, a victory for President Donald Trump despite disturbing allegations about Hegseth’s conduct and questions about his fitness for the job.

Hegseth’s appointment was secured in a late-night vote only when Vice President J.D. Vance stepped in to break the tie after three Senate Republicans voted against him. Hegseth has been accused of sexual assault and of having a history of alcohol abuse. His candidacy seemed in doubt earlier in the week when another person came forward with allegations that Hegseth had been abusive to his former wife.

Hegseth was co-host of Fox News’ “Fox & Friends Weekend” daytime show from 2017 until late last year when he stepped down after Trump nominated him to oversee the nation’s military. He previously served in the National Guard and...

In June of last year, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-Ga.) was considering subpoenaing former Trump staffer Cassidy Hutchinson as part of the GOP’s counter investigation into the work of the Jan. 6 committee. The idea was shut down by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), ostensibly over concerns that Hutchinson’s testimony would mean a repeat of the firestorm her 2022 testimony created.

According to a Thursday report from The Washington Post, Johnson’s office was also concerned that subpoenaing Hutchinson would unearth a much more embarrassing scandal: lawmakers sending her sexually explicit text messages.

“President McRib is back for a limited time: only four years,” said Jimmy Kimmel during his post-inauguration day Jimmy Kimmel Live! show on Monday night.

“Today at noon Eastern, our long, national nightmare was officially sworn in another time, a second time,” Kimmel continued. “Donald Trump became the first convicted felon to be sworn in as president of the United States today. He’s selling inauguration bibles to celebrate, he launched a new meme coin over the weekend to the tune of some say $41 billion — he launched his own cryptocurrency days before he became president. I hope we all understand how crazy that is; the president of the United States, following in the footsteps of the Hawk Tuah Girl.“

When reacting to Trump’s Inauguration Day events, the ABC late night host began his monologue by quipping about the ceremony being moved indoors due to the cold (“harder for Melania...

Donald Trump became president for the second time yesterday, offering a lot of comedic fodder for Jon Stewart on the latest episode of The Daily Show. The late-night host recapped the inauguration, calling it “this most historic vibe shift of a day.” Stewart began his monologue by explaining how Trump returned to the same room where he incited a riot only four years ago.

“Now, generally, if this were a Dateline documentary, he would return to that room to express a form of repentance in maturity and acknowledgement of the...

Jon Stewart took swipes at President Trump’s Monday Inauguration during the post-ceremony “Daily Show,” including torching Democratic lawmakers who followed decorum.

While showing footage of Democrats arriving and making nice during traditional event, Stewart criticized the leaders — except for no-show Michelle Obama — for acting as if it was business as usual in Washington.

“Also attending were all those people who warned Americans to shun this wannabe fascist dictator called Trump,” he said. “‘Look at me, Ma! Oh, let’s go see Hitler and get a quick selfie first! Hello! Look at us! A quick one for the ‘Gram!’ Former President Obama was there. George Bush seemed kind of there. Even Mike Pence showed up, I guess to let the crowd finish the job. Only Michelle Obama seemed to have the consistent ethical stance of saying, ‘When they go low, I stay the fuck home.'”

Stewart also lampooned Elon Musk...

Jimmy Kimmel addressed the presidential inauguration of Donald Trump on Monday night’s edition of “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” and noted how odd the ceremony turned out to be — just as “our long national nightmare was officially sworn in.”

“It’s still pretty hard to wrap your head around,” he said of the fact that Trump, a convicted felon, was nonetheless elected president once again. And the grift has already started: Selling inauguration Bibles, and a new meme coin that has already minted him a fortune.

“I hope we all understand how crazy that is,” he said, “the President of the United States – following in the footsteps of the Hawk Tuah girl.”

As for the decision to hold the inauguration inside to the cold, “they had to move the festivities indoors – which was actually better for Trump. Harder for Melania to escape.”

And Kimmel noted that President Biden and Dr. Jill Biden...

While some might say Donald Trump’s inauguration marked a somber day in U.S. history, The Daily Show‘s Jon Stewart had dick jokes aplenty.

The comedian and political host incised the D.C. affair with one-liners aimed at those in attendance (from their fashion choices to their general decision to show up at all), X owner Elon Musk’s odd/potentially terrifying salute and outgoing Potus Joe Biden’s down-to-the-wire blanket pardon.

Regarding the peaceful transition of power, which began with Biden’s tea-time with Trump, Stewart quipped: “I’m not saying Biden should have done his own insurrection, but there’s gotta be a happy medium between storming the Capitol and ‘would you like a crumpet?'”

As for those present, Stewart marveled at the people who had previously denounced Trump — as a fascist and otherwise — who dropped by: “George Bush seemed kind of there — definitely high. Even Mike Pence showed up,...

The living former U.S. Presidents and their First Ladies are attending Donald Trump‘s inauguration on Monday (January 20) in Washington, DC with two notable absences.

Former Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton were seated together in the Rotunda of the U.S. Capitol to witness the 78-year-old president elect be sworn back into office.

Former First Ladies Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush were also present. However, Michelle Obama notably skipped the event.

Former Vice President Mike Pence, who was Donald’s vice president in his first term, also attended the inauguration. However, his wife Karen was not present.

Current First Lady Jill Biden and Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff were also seated alongside the group. We’ve got photos of everyone in the gallery!

According to reporting by People, former Presidents Obama and Clinton and former Vice President Pence were booed by members of the crowd.

J.D. Vance is being sworn in alongside Donald Trump as the Vice President of the United States on Monday (January 19) during the inauguration ceremony happening in Washington, D.C.

With his name dominating the headlines, citizens are wondering about J.D.‘s personal life, including more about his wife and their kids.

The 40-year-old Republican Ohio Senator-turned Vice President is married to Usha Vance, with whom he shares three children: Ewan, Vivek and Mirabel.

The dad of three has shared glimpses of his kids on social media over the years, including a picture of his family of five at the Ohio State Fair in 2022.

“Eleven years ago I brought my new girlfriend to the Ohio state fair. We came back today with three kids in tow and I got to judge the rib competition (the toddler helped). What an awesome birthday!” he captioned the post at the time.

Attorney General Merrick Garland has released former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on his investigation into President-elect Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. The 130-page report is damning, and concludes that “the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial.”

“As set forth in the original and superseding indictments, when it became clear that Mr. Trump had lost the election and that lawful means of challenging the election results had failed, he resorted to a series of criminal efforts to retain power,...

Mike Pence spoke to President-elect Donald Trump at Jimmy Carter‘s funeral after not speaking for the past four years.

The 65-year-old former vice president and the 78-year-old President-elect of the United States were both in attendance at the state funeral for the former President on Thursday (January 9) in Washington, D.C., in their first reunion since 2021.

When Trump and his wife Melania arrived, Pence stood up from the row behind and extended his hand to Trump for a handshake. They also spoke a few words briefly.

In an interview with Christianity Today, Pence revealed what he said.

Keep reading to find out more…

“He greeted me when he came down the aisle. I stood up, extended my hand. He shook my hand. I said, ‘Congratulations, Mr. President,’ and he said, ‘Thanks, Mike,’” Pence recalled.

Pence also addressed his wife Karen seemingly staring ahead and declining to acknowledge Trump and Melania.

All five living presidents – Joe Biden, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, George W. Bush and Bill Clinton— were reunited on Jan. 9 to honor former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral in the Washington National Cathedral. The event saw civility between political foes. Trump and Obama were even seen laughing during a friendly exchange.

But former Trump White House adviser Steve Bannon claimed that Bush snubbed Trump.

On his political podcast, WarRoom, Bannon called Bush “the worst president in the history of the country.”

“Bush walked past Trump, the man fixing the mess he created,” Bannon said. “This is who they are — arrogant, out-of-touch elites.”

Obama was also not spared on the podcast, even though Trump and Obama put their clashing politics aside.

Former president Barack Obama raised some eyebrows on Thursday after he was seen laughing with President-elect Donald Trump — who regularly pushed birther conspiracy theories about Obama — during fellow former President Jimmy Carter’s funeral. So, on Friday morning, the hosts of “The View” tried to decipher what Trump could’ve possibly said to elicit the laugh.

Playing the clip for the audience, the ladies all agreed that they enjoyed trying to read the body language of everyone in attendance, not just Trump and Obama. Behar joked that she desperately wanted to “be a fly on Mike Pence’s head” for the event, so she could’ve heard everything. Still, she had a guess as to what Trump might’ve said.

“It looks like Trump is asking Obama which country the Panama Canal is in,” she joked.

On Friday’s (January 10) new live episode of The View, the cohosts started the hour by talking about the memorial service for former President Jimmy Carter, which was attended by all five living presidents and some of their spouses — Bill and Hillary Clinton, George and Laura Bush, Barack Obama (Michelle Obama was absent), Donald and Melania Trump, and Joe and Jill Biden — as well as some of the vice presidents — Dan Quayle, Al Gore, Mike Pence (with wife Karen), and Kamala Harris (with Doug Emhoff). “I couldn’t take my eyes off of the body language,” Joy Behar said before showing a much-seen moment in which Trump made Obama laugh. “It looks like Trump is asking Obama which country the Panama Canal was in!… I wish I was a fly on Mike Pence. I would have liked to have really seen what was going on, but I didn’t have any sound.

When Joe Biden eulogized Jimmy Carter in the majestic surroundings of Washington National Cathedral on Thursday, he said of his predecessor, “Many think he was from a bygone era, but he saw into the future.”

As other speakers noted, Carter was prescient on a host of issues including climate change and women’s rights, but inside the cathedral were reminders that when it comes to politics, the future looks much different than the late president probably could have ever envisioned it.

Carter’s adviser Stuart Eizenstat noted that much of Carter’s agenda passed with bipartisan support in the 1970s; at the cathedral today, in the area reserved for members of Congress, there were only a handful of Republicans. Many seats were empty.

The former US Presidents, Donald Trump, Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush, were all photographed at the state funeral for former President Jimmy Carter on Thursday (January 9) in Washington, DC.

Also seen paying respects for the former President were former First Ladies Melania Trump, Hillary Clinton, and Laura Bush, as well as President Joe Biden, First Lady Jill Biden, VP Kamala Harris, her husband Doug Emhoff, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, former VP Al Gore, and former VP Mike Pence. It does not appear as if former President Obama‘s wife, Michelle Obama, joined him.

Stephen Colbert channeled Kay Jewelers on Monday’s (January 6) edition of The Late Show as he commemorated the January 6 Capitol attack for those who deem the attempted coup as “a day of love.” In a video, clips played of President-elect Donald Trump praising the 2021 attack, saying things like, “It was a day of love,” “There was a beauty to it,” and “They were there with love in their heart.” This then transitioned into a spoof Kay Jewelers commercial, the voice-over saying, “This January 6, give her the perfect gift to commemorate that special day of love.” A woman then opened a gift box to reveal a “diamond-encrusted noose.” “It’s the most romantic way to make sure she never forgets those three little words,” the voice-over continued before throwing to a clip of Trump supporters in the Capitol building chanting, “Hang Mike Pence!” The video ended with a spin on the jewelry brand’s iconic jingle,...

Donald Trump’s victory in the November presidential election was certified by Congress on Monday, and this time the only thing storming the Capitol was the heavy winter snowfall hitting Washington, D.C.

Vice President Kamala Harris presided over the certification, announcing Trump’s 312 Electoral College votes, to her own 226. Republicans stood and applauded as she announced Trump’s total.

The contrast between the procedure to finalize Trump’s victory ahead of his inauguration stands in stark contrast to what followed his 2020 election loss to outgoing President Joe Biden. Trump denied his loss,...

Throughout Netflix's history, the streaming service giant has hired A-list actors to headline films and produced TV shows featuring many celebrities. Despite how much those stars must have been paid, many users care much more about Netflix's reality shows. While there is some debate about which Netflix reality shows are the best, Queer Eye has been celebrated since the revival of the influential original series premiered.

As every Queer Eye fan knows, the show's stars have become so famous that Jonathan Van Ness can charge a fortune for a haircut. However, that doesn't mean that Queer Eye's fans have always been happy with the show's cast. For example, Karamo Brown once suffered a backlash from some fans for one of his political opinions.

Fox News Media says its prime-time commentator Sean Hannity will launch a long-form interview series on the streaming platform Fox Nation.

The show, called “Sean,” promises to feature conversations with leading figures in the worlds of sports, entertainment and politics.

The first episode debuts on Fox Nation this week, with a conversation between Hannity, actor Sylvester Stallone and model Jennifer Flavin Stallone. Forthcoming episodes will include conversations with ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith and celebrity fitness trainer Jillian Michaels.

“Throughout the course of my career, I’ve had the honor of meeting the world’s most interesting people,” Hannity said in a statement. “It is often the struggles and obstacles they have overcome that makes them most captivating. I look forward to sharing these conversations with Fox Nation viewers.”

Plot: Follows the elite students of Manchester College, a Washington, D.C.-adjacent university, where reputation means everything, fraternities and sororities are the gold standard, and two ruthless step-siblings, Caroline Merteuil and Lucien Belmont, will do anything to stay on top of the cutthroat social hierarchy. After a brutal hazing incident threatens the entire Greek Life system, they’ll do whatever is necessary to preserve their power and reputation – even if that means seducing Annie Grover, the daughter of the Vice President of the United States. Hearts will be broken, loyalties will be tested, and secrets will be revealed in this modern-day royal court that is Manchester College.

Most figures at the forefront of America’s anti-abortion movement were less than enthusiastic when Donald Trump announced last week he plans to nominate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services — the agency that governs federal policy related to reproductive health.

Rfk Jr.’s position on abortion shifted over the course of his campaign: In May, he defended the viability standard that was the basis of Roe v. Wade, before declaring his support for a federal 15-week abortion ban and then walking that declaration back in August.

President-elect Donald Trump made a lot of promises on the campaign trail when it comes to tax policy, from ending the federal income tax in favor of tariffs to eliminating taxes on Social Security benefits, tips, and overtime pay. But if the past is prologue, there’s only one he’s certain to fulfill: massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.

Let’s review the game tape. When Trump was elected in 2016, economists, policy wonks, and Washington elites frequently criticized his policy agenda as unworkable, unrealistic, and unserious. But...

Hollywood has been very vocal about their political stance and election opinions for the US presidential elections. Multiple celebrities boldly endorsed their preferred Democratic or Republican candidate. The results have shocked many, but Jimmy Kimmel was brought to tears during his monologue.

Owing to their banter, the long-standing friction between Donald Trump and the late-night talk show host has become public knowledge. The duo has been quite harsh and critical of each other’s actions and performances in their respective fields. But when and how exactly did the Television show host locked horns with the 45th President of the United States is an interesting story.

“Hey there. How you doing? If you watch this show regularly, I’m guessing you’re not doing great,” Colbert began. “Yeah, me neither. Today, some people said to me, ‘Sorry you have to do a show tonight,’ which is nice of them to say but I don’t have to do a show. I get to do a show tonight.”

Colbert then took time to express his gratitude for his crew, the audience at the Ed Sullivan Theater, and the viewers at home, “because, especially at times like this, what do we most want to be? Not alone. So thanks for being here.

“We’re gonna do a comedy show,” he continued.

Late night hosts Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Colbert and Seth Meyers are offering their takes after Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris in the 2024 election.

The host of Jimmy Kimmel Live! kicked off his monologue, telling his audience, “Let me tell you, that was the worst Taco Tuesday of my whole life. We had the choice between a prosecutor and a criminal, and we chose the criminal to be president of the United States. More than half of this country voted for the criminal who’s planning to pardon himself for his crimes. I guess this election wasn’t rigged.”

Later during his opening segment, Kimmel got emotional as he listed off everyone who was impacted by the “terrible night last night.”

“It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hard-working immigrants who make this country go,” he said, trying to hold back tears. “For health care,...

Following the 2024 presidential election results, the hosts of late night are addressing the serious elephant in the room while attempting to keep things light.

Seth Meyers opened Wednesday’s Late Night show by saying it’s “a privilege to be here with you, to not feel alone,” and how “we’re not going to let anything take that joy away, even when we’re talking about things that are not particularly joyful.”

After admitting he voted for Kamala Harris, Meyers continued his opening speech by saying what many Democrats already know. “I don’t think Donald Trump is a good person. I’d even go so far as to say he’s a bad person. Now in my defense, I’m only basing that on everything I’ve ever been taught about what makes someone good or bad.”

While acknowledging that it’s still a privilege to to live in a democratic country,...

Donald Trump Jr. has come out with some very serious allegations against the celebrities who have endorsed Kamala Harris for the next president of the United States of America. Trump ran for the third time, securing a second term in the White House after being tossed out by Joe Biden in 2020.

Donald Trump Jr. spoke on his own podcast, Triggered, alleging that Diddy’s arrest was all an orchestrated plan to allow celebrities to endorse Kamla Harris, Trump’s chief opponent in the 2024 US Presidential Elections.

Earthquakes usually happen on the west coast of the U.S., but this weekend’s political earthquake was centered squarely in Iowa.

The Des Moines Register/Selzer poll that showed Vice President Kamala Harris leading former President Donald Trump sent shockwaves through the political world. And it caused NBC’s Meet the Press to tear up some of its best laid plans.

“When I went to bed last night, I felt really great about where the panel was, and then I looked at it today, and some of those questions just had to change after Iowa,” recalls Meet the Press moderator Kristen Welker. “It is an ongoing process right up until we go to air. It’s a living, breathing set of documents and interviews that we are constantly changing and tweaking right up until we go on … the fact that we’re a country that’s very divided, we have a real responsibility,...
