Reports over the weekend suggested that Donald Trump was considering picking Nikki Haley to be his running mate, but insiders said that this was only if Haley agreed to pay his legal bills. Trump was not happy about this leaked information, and he blasted the report on Truth Social claiming that Haley is NOT under consideration. At this point, Haley as VP might be Trump's only shot at winning in November.
Also, the bankrupt former Mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani, just watched as his financial problems became so much worse as ABC Radio abruptly cancelled his radio show - right in the middle of the show! Giuliani's recent financial statements at bankruptcy court revealed that the radio show was one of his only sources of income, and given the high profile that Giuliani has, it is safe to bet that he was getting paid way too much for his show to begin with, but now that's gone. Farron explains how Giuliani's repeated lies about the 2020 election cost him this source of income.
And a former Trump campaign aide from his 2016 campaign has filed a lawsuit against the campaign, alleging that they not only fired her for becoming pregnant, but also that they hid the payment they made to her from the public by illegally funneling it through other entities. Groups are now calling for the Federal Elections Commission to investigate the claims made in this lawsuit to find out if the campaign did, in fact, break the law by concealing the payments to keep the woman quiet.
Finally, Donald Trump held a rally in New Jersey this past weekend that was allegedly attended by upwards of 80,000 people. The tens of thousands who showed up were treated to gems such as Donald Trump praising fictional serial killer and cannibal Hannibal Lecter, and Trump being joined on stage by a registered sex offender. This campaign is almost too comical to even joke about at this point, but the crowd seemed to love every second of mayhem that Trump brought with him.
