It's not just that Comer and Bartiromo spent the morning pretending to be amazed at the same "revelations" Comer's been peddling for months. It's that they layered new debunked nonsense on top of it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/16/comer-biden-inquiry-noncitizen-voting/

A new national poll shows that younger voters are less enthusiastic about voting and view Biden less favorably than Trump. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/16/biden-polling-democratic-voters/

In 2016, Trump ran as the outsider challenging the system.

In 2020, he ran as the incumbent who'd conquered it.

Now, he's running as its victim.

Spent some time trying to answer two questions: How many people would be affected by a mass deportation under Trump and what would the social and economic costs be? https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/15/trump-immigration-deportation-plan/

Biden seemingly took a lesson from the 2020 primaries and the 2022 midterms that things work out despite the polls. Making the same bet in 2024, particularly given how things look now, is a much bigger gamble. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/14/biden-trump-polling-swing-states/

Merrick Garland's warnings about threats to election workers overlap with Trump allies' refusals to say they'll accept the 2024 results.

In his first day of testimony, Michael Cohen presented robust evidence of a crime. Whether his testimony convinces jurors Trump committed the crimes he's accused of, though, is a different question. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/14/michael-cohen-outlined-crime-did-he-prove-that-trump-committed-one/

It is a presidential election year which means it is time once again to roll our eyes at the idea that rally turnout is predictive of election outcomes.

The Siena-Times poll's most interesting questions, to my mind, centered on the desire for a candidate to break the system. I think the responses help illuminate how younger Americans view Biden vs. Trump. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/13/biden-trump-polling-battleground-states/

Stripped of context, Trump's praise for Hannibal Lecter was bizarre. In context? It was an escalation of his rhetoric about the purported dangers of immigration.

After 15 non-starter impeachment resolutions and a humiliating impeachment probe, House Republicans have an idea: Why not try impeaching Biden? https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/10/republicans-have-new-new-theory-why-biden-should-be-impeached/

Worth highlighting testimony from Trump's former Oval Office aide about how he continued to engage with the Trump Organization as president — despite his promises not to. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/10/course-trump-intertwined-trump-organization-into-his-presidency/

What Trump offered oil executives for a $1 billion boost to his candidacy was what he offers all of his supporters: to advocate their side in their cultural battle. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/10/trump-green-culture-war-donation/

Stephen Miller's claims about the vote to add a citizenship question to the census are false. Also, adding such a question is redundant, fraught and would probably lead lots of people to skip it. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/09/citizenship-question-census-stephen-miller/

According to Hannity, supporting John Kerry, backing affirmative action or advocating clean energy indicates "extremism." Because, to many Republicans, mainstream Democratic positions are extreme. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/09/hannity-rfk-extremeism-republicans/

The event hyping an redundant, fear-mongering bill targeting "non-citizen voting" featured various election denial celebrities and a stream of dishonest rhetoric.

It's not clear what a judge overtly trying to submarine Trump's Florida trial would do that Cannon hasn't. He and his fans have noticed. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/08/judge-trump-classified-documents-trial-date/

So the obviously false statement Stormy Daniels released in 2018 that, rather than disproving she had sex with Trump as Trump and others have recently suggested, demonstrated she’d been paid not to talk about it? Turns out that statement was false. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/07/stormy-daniels-trump-trial-statement/

Trump's style, reflected and encouraged in the broader right-wing mediaverse, is apocalyptic hyperbole. It's a path that increasingly looks like it leads to a jail stint. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/05/07/trump-jail-gag-order-fox-news/
