WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump’s judicial nominee Emil Bove on Tuesday refused to say that Joe Biden won the 2020 presidential election, claiming it would be “political” to do so. During his nomination hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Bove was asked point blank by Sen. Peter Welch (D-Vt.) who won the 2020 election. “President Biden was certified as the winner of that election,” said Bove, 44, who is up for a lifetime seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit.

WASHINGTON ― Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) on Tuesday deleted a series of disgusting tweets he posted in response to a gunman assassinating Minnesota Democratic state Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband. Lee posted several tweets from his personal account on Saturday, baselessly claiming that the man who went to the homes of four Minnesota state lawmakers with the intent to kill them has ties to the political left.

I was interviewing Chuck Schumer a bit ago and brought up the escalating Musk-Trump feud on X. He didn't know about it, so I mentioned the Epstein tweet from Musk, and said Trump responded by threatening revoke Musk's federal contracts. Schumer: "Ho ho ho hooo." 😂
