Trump's Dictatorship Dreams: J.D. Vance and Michael Cohen Weigh In

J.D. Vance, Republican senator from Ohio, dismissed concerns about Donald Trump potentially abusing presidential power, stating that Trump would not be radically different from his previous term. Vance ignored Trump's own statement about being a dictator on "day one" of a potential second term. Vance also denied that Republicans were trying to limit access to contraceptives and accused the media of colluding with Twitter and the government in 2020. He argued that the cost of having a child in the U.S. is too high and criticized the media for suppressing the New York Post report on Hunter Biden's laptop. Vance did not acknowledge that Trump was the president during that time.

"DeSantis' Private Jet Controversy: Campaigns Clash Over Lavish Travel"

A spokesperson for Ron DeSantis has accused the Washington Post of "Trump-legacy media collusion" in response to a report about undisclosed trips on donors' private jets. The spokesperson directed further questions to a former aide to DeSantis, who in turn deferred to the Trump campaign. Trump's spokesperson dismissed the accusations and criticized DeSantis for unethical behavior. The report detailed at least six undisclosed trips and raised questions about gift disclosures and the governor's travel records. DeSantis, a close challenger to Trump in primary polling, faces mounting scrutiny as he attempts to outflank the former president on the right.
