Such sad news. Richard was my agent, but not just any agent. He was the greatest agent of all time. Farewell, my friend. Rest in peace.

Today, something weighs heavy on my mind.

With so much at stake, we need young people to be involved, more than ever.

With just over 200 days before the election, how can we cut through the noise and get them to the polls in November?

Here are a few suggestions:

First,…

Donald Trump selling bibles is like Marjorie Taylor Greene selling self-help books.

BREAKING: NBC News plans to drop former RNC chair Ronna McDaniel as a paid contributor, per Puck News.

This is a good decision.

I’d like to weigh in on NBC news' recent decision to hire Ronna McDaniel.

By giving her a platform, NBC has given legitimacy to the lies she helped the former president spread.

Now we come to the why. Why would NBC News hire someone as controversial? 

Here’s the reason:

News…

After giving it some thought, I am convinced that the real story isn’t just that Donald Trump’s campaign is being vastly outraised by President Biden.

It’s that Donald Trump has been forced to cancel rallies in swing states because he couldn’t afford them:

According to a…

I’m curious: how many of my followers feel they are better off now than 4 years ago?

Forgive my language, but this stood out to me: As Peter Navarro entered prison, he told reporters, “I’m pissed.”

No doubt a similar sentiment many felt when he refused to tell investigators what he knew about the plot to overthrow the 2020 election.  

And there’s even more:…

NY AG Letitia James is now allowed to seize Donald Trump's assets, starting Monday.

I hear Mar-a-Lago may have some value.

I find it awfully interesting that Donald Trump, the self-proclaimed billionaire, cannot secure a bond to cover a $454 million judgment against him.

This could mean the seizure of any number of his properties as soon as next week.

One can imagine how humiliating this is: Trump,…

Maybe I'm missing something, but I didn't figure a billionaire would have problems posting a bond.

Tonight I’m wondering if you heard this important nugget Ken Buck was quoted as saying?

House Republicans’ razor-thin margin is now down to two.

When talking to Axios, Buck hinted to what could be even bigger news: more resignations could be coming.

“I think it's the next…

At a campaign rally in Georgia, Trump mocked President Biden’s stutter. Again.

While Trump gives a new meaning to the term “bully pulpit,” the dim glow of the newsroom has taught this reporter that there are things the media can do when a candidate’s speech turns to vitriol:…

Many in the media -- including this writer -- have been saying that a second Trump administration will mean the 'end of democracy.'

But Nikki Haley's run proved Trump has difficulty persuading moderate Americans.

For those who seek it, history provides context for hope:

-…

If I may, there’s something I need to get off my chest.

As democracy remains under siege, it has been frustrating to watch how the press covers politics these days.

I am reminded by lessons that came to me during the Nixon years as a CBS News correspondent, which I’ll add here:…

The fact that the Supreme Court is even considering Trump’s immunity case is horrific.

It should be clear to anyone who cares about democracy that no one is above the law.

But while a Supreme Court packed with Trump’s appointees won’t save us, there is something we can all do:…

The media's claim that Trump's South Carolina win is 'crushing' misses a key point:

Trump is crushing his chances to win in November.

Everything he's doing to fire up MAGA voters makes him less palatable to the independents he needs to win the general.

Bad news for his MAGA…

In my view, the key CPAC story isn’t that right-wing influencer Jack Posebiec said, “Welcome to the end of democracy. We are here to overthrow it completely.”

The story is how many Republican lawmakers are absolutely silent about it.

May I suggest the media ask every…
