Bethany Mandel, the controversial right-wing pundit, home-schooling advocate, and prolific social media poster, is running for county school board — as a Democrat.
Though the school board race in deep-blue Montgomery County, Maryland, is technically nonpartisan, Mandel’s campaign published a graphic on Tuesday listing her as a Democrat. The move quickly raised eyebrows online, and prompted a community note on X (formerly Twitter) stating, “Bethany Mandel has identified as a Republican numerous times on her personal Twitter account.”

After a year of getting roundly humiliated by Donald Trump and failing to unseat him as the leader of the Republican Party, Ron DeSantis finally dropped out of the race and endorsed Trump’s bid to reclaim the White House. But while the former president publicly retired his “DeSanctimonious” nickname, Trump has privately made clear over the past two weeks that he’s not ready to let go of his grudge against the Florida governor and former ally.
According to two sources with knowledge of the matter and another person briefed on it,...

Donald Trump is scheduled to appear on Fox News Wednesday night for a town hall discussion ahead of next week’s Iowa caucuses. He began his morning by bashing the network that serves as his primary propaganda arm in the media.
“So funny to watch Steve Doocy of Fox & Friends desperately trying to save Ron DeSanctimonious, a sinking ship. Whatever happened to that guy??? Also, the CNN Poll used by Fox, even though I’m winning big, is a Fake outlier,” he wrote early Wednesday morning on Truth Social.

Former President Donald Trump will take part in a Fox News town hall on Tuesday, one night before the next Republican debate that he is expected to skip.
Sean Hannity will host the pre-taped event, which will be held in Davenport, Ia. Hannity moderated Thursday night’s debate between California Governor Gavin Newsom and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, the latter one of Trump’s main rivals for the GOP nomination. The town hall will start at 9 p.m. Et.
Trump is expected to once again skip the next debate, to be held on Wednesday and hosted by NewsNation, the upstart cable news channel. The debate will be moderated by Elizabeth Vargas, Megyn Kelly and Eliana Johnson, and it will feature a much slimmed down field compared to the first gathering of the GOP candidates in August. Nikki Haley, DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy are likely to be on the stage, but...

A Florida Republican wants to expand the some of the state’s “Don’t Say Gay” gender identity restrictions into the Sunshine State’s workplaces.
On Tuesday, Florida state Rep. Ryan Chamberlin introduced Hb 599, a bill that would ban government employees from being required to use the preferred pronouns of their colleagues, prohibits the penalization of employees on the “basis of deeply held religious or biology-based beliefs,” and makes it unlawful for nonprofits or employers receiving state funds to require employees to undergo training on matters of sexual/gender identity or gender expression.

Ron DeSantis may be leading the Republicans he shared the debate stage with on Wednesday night, but he had just as much — if not more — at stake than any of them. Once upon a time, the Florida governor had high hopes to dethrone Donald Trump atop the GOP, but his campaign has been floundering amid a series of unforced errors and questions about his ability to connect with voters. The debate was a golden opportunity to generate momentum by, at the very least, asserting himself as the alpha of the...

Robert Bigelow has realized that building inflatable, orbiting motels is only the second-most ridiculous way he’s burning cash. The ultra-wealthy hotel magnate, who has donated more than $20 million to the pro-Ron DeSantis super Pac “Never Back Down” told Reuters on Friday that the presidential candidate needs to make major changes before he’ll give him another cent.
Bigelow is the largest individual contributor to “Never Back Down,” and his comments to Reuters reflect a pattern of discontent amongst DeSantis donors, who are guarding their wallets as the Florida Governor’s polling slips.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’ campaign is firing 38 staffers, about one-third of its total roster, in an effort to cut back on spending as the Florida governor’s presidential bid stumbles. According to a report from Politico, which confirmed the layoffs with advisors from the campaign, the cuts to staff revealed today expand on a downsizing announced earlier in July and the sudden departures of senior advisors Dave Abrams and Tucker Obenshain.
The DeSantis campaign has floundered in recent months, and while the Florida governor remains in second place in the race for the 2024 nomination,...

After a days-long back and forth, Trump’s short fuse burned out in a Wednesday night statement ripping into Ron DeSantis. The former president once again resorted to name-calling the Florida governor, which DeSantis has said he “kinda” likes, and listing off a slew of criticism over the state.
“Now that Ron DeSanctimonious is finally admitting he’s in the Race by beginning to fight back, and now that his Polls have crashed so he has no other choice, let me explain the facts,” Trump wrote in a statement released via his campaign.

Jj Abrams is one of the most powerful people in Hollywood right now. Over his career in the movies, he's written, directed, produced, acted and played a wicked keyboard solo on Cool Guys Don't Look At Explosions, and through his production company Bad Robot, his name is counted among the credits of massive franchises like Cloverfield, Mission: Impossible, Star Trek and of course Star Wars. He's more of a household name than most filmmakers of his generation and we sometimes wish we wanted anything as much as he wants that Steven Spielberg status.
You can't blame him when you hear about his first paid job in the film industry. Returning a bunch of Spielberg's personal super-8 home movies that he discovered after his...
