sit with CNN for a televised town hall discussion on Monday, this time moderated by Anderson Cooper. From the top, he was grilled about the second criminal indictment and 37 counts former president Donald Trump faces for taking hundreds of classified documents to his Mar-a-Lago estate after losing the 2020 election to Joe Biden.
Asked for his take on the most damning part of the 41-page document, Christie struggled to pinpoint just one component. “The most?” he asked.
“Can I get the three most? Because, you know, there’s so much.”Before having the former New Jersey governor break down those three “most egregious” elements to Trump’s indictment from special counsel Jack Smith out of Florida, Cooper asked Christie to explain why he thinks a reelected Trump would be “worse than the original show was.”“Because he’s so angry now. He’s angry and he’s vengeful and he said: ‘I will be your retribution.’ Well, I don’t want him to be my retribution, I don’t need him to do that and I don’t think anyone in America needs it, either.

attorney, to give his professional legal opinion of “the most egregious” of the 37 charges against Trump.“Well, the most? Can I get the three most? Because, you know, there’s so much. I mean, first it’s the nature of the documents that he kept,” the politician

“Rob Schneider: Woke Up in America,” a hilarious take on the current events of modern America that debuted on Fox Nation earlier this week.The actor and comedian proved he hasn’t lost his luster, keeping the audience in stitches by wisecracking on everything from today’s culture wars, COVID-19 mask mandates and his own vasectomy to making a movie with Donald Trump. Schneider told “Fox & Friends” on Monday that the secret to modern comedy comes from appealing to the demand for someone who isn’t afraid to push back against censorship or “go against the grain.”Here are some can’t-miss moments from the actor-comedian’s latest endeavor, exclusively available on Fox Nation:Schneider said he voted for Trump – a few times – in 2016.“It was in California, and I was writing on my kitchen counter – I had the ballot because, you know, in California, they mail you like 100 of them,” he joked. “I was just filling them out.
@chrislhayes: The ritual humiliation of Hunter Biden—a mainstay of the right-wing media—is an attempt to wage a sort of psychological warfare upon the president. Joe Biden has no control over the actions of his adult son—his sole surviving son—who he obviously loves deeply.
