Speaking with Fox's Martha MacCallum, McEnany called Kirk's endorsement powerful before adding a word of caution for the party. I think it's very important that the Republican party have a competitive primary, she said. It makes you tougher. We see how much weaker, in my opinion, the left was by not having a primary [in 2024]. I hope we have that competitive primary, she stressed.

(AP Photo/Matt Rourke) Vice President JD Vance brushed off online scrutiny over a viral photo, both unverified and of uncertain origin, claiming to show him arguing with his wife Usha at a restaurant. The image, which depicts Vance in a white T-shirt and Usha with her head bowed and hand to her face, triggered a familiar rush among political antagonists keen to diagnose the state of the couple's marriage.

Wouldn't it be the most perfect MAGA fairytale if he finally sees the light that he needs a white queen, instead of this brown Hindu? Reid said. I'm not saying that's happening, or maybe that Usha's not even in on it, but that's one entrant.

If it's convenient for him to be a fascist, he'll be a fascist. Maybe later on, he'll go back to being a Silicon Valley Democrat. He'll be whatever he needs to be, Buttigieg said.

I would say that I've thought about what that moment might look like after the midterm elections, sure. But I also, whenever I think about that, I try to put it out of my head and remind myself the American people elected me to do a job right now and my job is to do it. And if you start getting distracted and focused on what comes next, I think it actually makes you worse at the job you have.

If we do what I say, they'll likely never obtain power.

He's getting squeezed because the Groypers are on the one hand saying, Hey, listen, fat boy, we want America first. You want to run for president? We want to hear you say America first.' And on the other side, he's got his donors, and they're saying, They're horrible anti-Semites. You have to disavow them. You have to forcefully condemn them. Condemn Tucker. Condemn the Groypers,' Fuentes began, referring to his followers, who are widely known as Groypers.

Millions of Americans yearn for 7 November 2028, the scheduled date of the next presidential election. That's the day the Trump era effectively ends. Probably. That's the day the Democrats will atone for Kamala Harris's calamitous 2024 failure. Possibly. That's the day US democracy is reborn. Hopefully. Succession talk is tantalising Washington. Gavin Newsom, California's governor, has given the clearest sign yet that he'll run and glossing over past blunders, Harris reckons she deserves a second chance.

President Donald Trump theorized about an unstoppable ticket for the 2028 presidential election on Monday, naming Vice President JD Vance and Secretary of State Marco Rubio as potential running mates who could hang onto the White House. The president answered a slew of questions aboard Air Force One on his way to Tokyo, where he will meet with new Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi on the second leg of his Asia tour.

I think the little Manchurian candidate, JD Vance, wants to be president more than anything else, opined Psaki. I always wonder what's going on in the mind of his wife. Like, are you okay? Please blink four times, we'll-, come over here. We'll save you. I mean, he's scarier in certain ways, in some ways. And he's young, and ambitious, and agile in the sense that he is a chameleon who makes himself into whatever he thinks the audience wants to hear from him.

The White House joined Bluesky on Friday evening, and less than 48 hours later, it has been blocked by more than 92,000 users, according to VQV, an app that tracks Bluesky stats. Vance has racked up 166,000 blocks since joining the platform in June. That means at this rate, the White House will leapfrog the vice president for the infamous, or venerable, depending on who you ask, position of being the most-blocked account on Bluesky.

you know what? He did it. And A, he deserves some credit for it, the longtime Democratic strategist said. He added, I don't have any problem with saying they did something which, as of now, other people failed to do. Carville called the peace deal an undeniable accomplishment and urged people to celebrate even a temporary pause to the war.

The definition of insanity is to do the same thing again and again expecting a different result. The reason we're here is because the president actually charted a different course with a different team. He vested a lot of authority in Steve Witkoff in particular, and that's why we're here. It's because you did something different, and I think it's important to recognize that.

If that's how we're doing it, JD, then we here at The Late Show also enjoy humor, the host declared. He proceeded to roll a heavily censored AI animation of Vance humping a sofa while wearing a sombrero in callback to an internet hoax that falsely claimed Vance once wrote about such an encounter in his memoir. The rumor, long debunked, was recycled through online memes during the 2024 campaign.

It sure looked like 25th Amendment day in the White House today, where Donald Trump was not publicly visible, and the vice president of the United States took to the microphone on day one of the government shutdown to basically assure the country, I guess, that he's in charge. And very specifically and deliberately to draw attention to Donald Trump's public insanity by actively seeking out an opportunity to talk publicly about Donald Trump's manifestations of outright insanity.

The political leadership of their party has got it into their heads that the only way to be compassionate is to be compassionate to illegal aliens, rather than American citizens, Vance said.

Is it helpful to post pictures of Leader Jeffries in a sombrero if you're trying to have good faith talks with him? asked the reporter Oh, I think it's funny! The president's joking, and we're having a good time. You can negotiate in good faith while also poking a little bit of fun at some of the absurdities of the Democrats' positions and even, you know, poking some fun at the absurdity of the Democrats themselves, replied Vance.

One Trump adviser who insisted that Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner are both at their wits' end with Israel, told Axios that Netanyahu would be to blame for enabling Hamas and doing nothing for the Palestinians who have so many humanitarian needs, if he didn't accept the terms of Trump's proposed deal. Another member of the administration remarked that Everyone and I mean everyone is exasperated with Bibi. And yet another complained about Netanyahu's recent war of words with Tucker Carlson.

KRISTIN DAVISON: We have to include the media and social media. The fact that tonight the first thing we started talking about was J.D. Vance instead of what actually happened is irresponsible and we have to start holding them accountable. (CROSSTALK) DAVISON: Why do we why is that right where you go? MOCKLER: It's the vice president. (CROSSTALK) DAVISON: That's immediately that's immediately tearing people apart.

This is now the fifth or sixth time he's posted a political take contradicted by facts from his own law enforcement agencies. Favreau's post included a suggested community note, citing an NBC News report, regarding Vance's comments that read, According to an ICE spokesperson, the three individuals shot were ICE detainees, leaving two individuals dead and one injured. No law enforcement were injured in this shooting, according to law enforcement and news reports out of Dallas, Texas.
