The first federal execution in 17 years was carried out in Indiana this morning after a...

Trump says he “aced” a recent cognitive test and claimed that the doctors were “very surprised.” Trump has been kind of sulky recently, so his aides have been trying to cheer him up with big trucks and video mashups of his “adoring fans.” There might be a second round of stimulus checks --but the GOP is working hard to restrict those eligible to receive the financial aid.

It doesn’t look like the strategy will be as successful as the GOP hopes, as research indicates that Trump’s...

Trump’s re-election strategy is all over the place, but the hill he seems ready to die on is passionately defending the use of the Confederate flag, protecting racist statues and more.
