House Jan 6 comittee releases report blasting Trump for Capitol assault

The House Jan. 6 committee's final report asserts that Donald Trump criminally engaged in a multi-part conspiracy to overturn the lawful results of the 2020 presidential election and failed to act to stop his supporters from attacking the Capitol, concluding an extraordinary 18-month investigation into the former president and the violent insurrection two years ago. The 814-page report released Thursday comes after the panel interviewed more than 1,000 witnesses, held 10 hearings and obtained millions of pages of documents. The witnesses ranging from many of Trump's closest aides to law enforcement to some of the rioters themselves detailed Trump's actions in the weeks ahead of the insurrection and how his wide-ranging pressure campaign to overturn his defeat directly influenced those who brutally pushed past the police and smashed through the windows and doors of the Capitol on January 6, 2021. The central cause of January 6th was one man, former President Donald Trump, who many

Maryland Guv Hogan raises money amid speculation of White House bid

Term-limited Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan raised money and launched a political action committee on Wednesday amid speculation he will run for president in 2024, telling hundreds of supporters he'll make a decision after he leaves office in January. Hogan has positioned himself to run as an alternative to Donald Trump. The former president already has announced he's running for president in 2024. The governor acknowledged the speculation about his political future in a speech to supporters. Next year, I'm going to sit down and talk to my family, talk to my friends and determine how I can best serve our great nation," Hogan said. Hogan, who has been a fierce critic of Trump, would be an underdog in a Republican primary, a point he noted that in his speech. I know there is no shortage of naysayers, but I've always been an underdog, and people have always counted us out, but every single time, we've beaten the odds, Hogan added. The Republican candidate Hogan endorsed for governor, Kel

US President Joe Biden on Wednesday launched an acerbic attack on his predecessor and potential rival in the 2024 elections, Donald Trump, saying he has "failed America" and alleged that Trump rule was marked by "record-breaking unemployment". Trump, facing several criminal investigations of his conduct related to his presidency, announced from his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Tuesday that he will run for the US president in 2024 to make America "great and glorious" again. Trump, 76, is seeking a potential rematch with Democratic President Biden. "In order to make America great and glorious again, I am tonight announcing that I will run for President of the United States. This will be our campaign altogether, he told his cheering supporters. Donald Trump has failed America,'' Biden tweeted from Bali in Indonesia, where he is attending the G-20 summit with world leaders including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Donald Trump signals he might run for US presidential election 2024

Donald Trump has strongly indicated that he might run for the 2024 US presidential election, claiming that "everyone" wants him to contest the polls once again, a decision he said will make a "couple of people unhappy." The 76-year-old Republican leader who has still not conceded defeat in the 2020 US presidential election to his Democratic Party rival Joe Biden, asserted that "we didn't lose." In an interview to NDTV news channel at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, the former president said, "Everyone wants me to run, I'm leading in the polls...I'll make a decision in the very near future, I suspect. And I think that a lot of people are going to be very happy." "I think so. A lot of people will be (happy); and a couple of people will be unhappy," he said without naming those who won't be pleased with his decision to seek another term in the White House in 2024.

Joe Biden's political standing fuels Democratic worry about 2024

It was supposed to be a moment of triumph for Joe Biden. The Democratic president had just signed into law the most significant infrastructure package in generations. And he had done it by bringing Democrats and Republicans together, just as he promised during last year's campaign. But when Biden arrived in New Hampshire last week to promote the USD 1 trillion package at the foot of a crumbling bridge, not all of his VIP guests were in the mood to celebrate. Democrats are concerned, former state House Speaker Steve Shurtleff, a longtime Biden supporter who attended the ceremony, told The Associated Press when asked about Biden's political standing. I'm concerned about where we may be in another couple of years when people really start to gear up and start making trips to New Hampshire. Shurtleff was openly saying what a growing number of Democrats have been whispering for months: Biden's political standing is so weak less than a year into his presidency that he may not be able to
