Progressives in the House received a much-needed victory on Tuesday night with Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) winning her primary one week after her fellow “squad” member Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) lost hers. Unlike the primaries for Bush and Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.), who was also ousted recently, Omar’s race did not draw the involvement of [...]

A federal judge said that Rudy Giuliani's bankruptcy has not been officially dismissed because the former New York City mayor has refused to pay administrative expenses — even though he seems to have the funds to do so.In July, U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Sean Lane said he would dismiss the bankruptcy case at the request of Giuliani and two former Georgia election workers, Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss. Giuliani had initially declared bankruptcy after a court ordered him to pay Freeman and Moss $148 million for defamation.In a five-page order on Thursday, Lane noted that the order to dismiss the case had not been entered into the court record because Giuliani claimed he could not afford to pay related administrative expenses."The administrative expenses in question are the fees for the financial advisors retained by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors," the judge's Thursday order said. "What little we know about the Debtor's financial situation makes his stance here more troubling.""Even assuming that the Debtor does not have the funds on hand to immediately pay these bankruptcy expenses, he certainly has considerable assets upon which he can draw to pay such expenses," Lane continued. "It is undisputed that he owns two apartments of considerable value."Giuliani's New York apartment was said to be worth $5.6 million, and his Florida apartment was valued at approximately $3.5 million.EXCLUSIVE: Trump ‘secretary of retribution’ won't discuss his ‘target list’ at RNCLane explained that the "most obvious path forward" would be to hold hearings to determine Giuliani's financial conditions and possibly force him to testify."[T]here may come a point when dismissal is no longer an option because the Debtor is unwilling to pay these administrative expenses, a necessary requirement under the law for dismissal of the case," Thursday's order said. "Under such circumstances, the Court may be forced to reevaluate the alternative of a Chapter 11 trustee to supervise the administration of the Debtor's financial affairs and to promptly liquidate assets such as the New York apartment as appropriate."Lane gave Giuliani and his creditors until July 31 to submit proposals for a path forward.

A GOP strategist unleashed an attack on Kamala Harris that was dripping in sarcasm Thursday after losing his cool over positive media coverage of the Democratic Party’s presumed presidential candidate.Doug Heye was on CNN as the vice president finished a rally speech in Houston. As his co-guest, Democratic Party strategist Maria Cordona, finished praising the candidate’s performance, Heye got flustered.Raising his voice, he said, “Everything we heard is 'Oh my god, Kamala Harris is the greatest thing ever. She's the greatest cook that we've ever had near the Oval Office. She knows more about wine than anybody other than maybe Thomas Jefferson. Everything she does is amazing.'“So we should just cancel the election because clearly she's going to win by 25 points?”He then tried to bring the CNN panel back from what he saw as rose-colored adoration.ALSO READ: ‘Creepy weirdos’: Senator fears Trump WH staff would destroy government from ‘inside’“The reality is, i'm not going to get in Donald Trump's head, don't want to be there, don't know what's in there. But he sees the same polling that we do," he said.“Kamala Harris is marginally less unpopular than Joe Biden. She's not winning in the polls. Maybe that changes in a week or two, or six or eight, but at this point, Donald Trump is still winning despite this barrage of nothing but positive press for Kamala Harris and has been marinated in the public's mind.”Cardona had set him off by suggesting that Trump was “going through a mental meltdown” because of his opponent's popularity.“Not just that she is incredibly accomplished as DA, AG, senator, VP,” she said, “but the fact that she is also very attractive. I mean, I have to say it.“...In addition to that, she's not only a woman, she's a woman of African American Asian descent, daughter of immigrants, Jamaican descent.I mean, it's it's this sort of cauldron of all of the things that Trump has nightmares about every single night.”Watch the video below or click the link here.

House GOP leaders are trying to avoid a backlash over accusations lodged by their rank-and-file that Kamala Harris is a "DEI hire," so they're pushing members to take aim at her policy stances instead.Why it matters: Speaker Mike Johnson and other top Republicans are encouraging members to avoid attacking the vice president's identity as they seek to navigate a campaign against the new presumed presidential nominee. Harris is the first woman, the first Black American and the first South Asian American to serve as vice president. Johnson (R-La.) encouraged members to" focus on policy not personality" during a closed-door conference meeting Tuesday, later echoing that sentiment publicly to reporters. Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) encouraged members in the meeting to "hold off on 'editorializing' on Kamala. Just stick to her disastrous record," a GOP lawmaker who was present for the comments told Axios. The big picture: Leadership's push to quash gender- or race-based critiques of Harris follows comments from a handful of GOP lawmakers asserting that the vice president was able to quickly step in for Biden because she's a woman of color. "The media propped up this president, lied to the American people for three years, and then dumped him for our DEI vice president," Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) posted on X. During a recent television appearance, Rep. Glenn Grothman (R-Wis.) alleged Democrats had to stick with Harris as the nominee "because of her ethnic background."Yes, but: Johnson's efforts to focus on Harris' policy record are complicated by rhetoric from the top of the ticket. Sen. JD Vance — Trump's running mate — hasn't limited his criticism to Harris' stance on issues. In his first solo campaign appearance Monday, Vance drew a biographical contrast with Harris, who he accused of "collecting a government paycheck for the last 20 years" Zoom out: Reps. Tony Cárdenas (D-Calif.) and Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) are weighing introducing a censure resolution against Burchett over his remarks, Politico first reported. Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-Fla.) told CNN the comments "are just racist dog whistles. Whenever you hear DEI, I want you to think about the N-word. I want you to think about racial slurs. That's what they actually mean.""Of course it's not appropriate, for heaven's sakes. What, are they just going to say, 'If you're not a white male, it's a DEI candidate?' I'm sorry. No," Rep. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) told Huffington Post. Johnson, meanwhile, said he'd "talked with a lot of members," and he thought his message had landed.
