I’m no legal expert, but I’ve got a sneaky suspicion that if you’ve just asked a judge to reconsider your guilty verdict in a defamation case, you probably shouldn’t repeat similarly defamatory statements during a televised press conference later that same day.

The judge overseeing Donald Trump’s hush-money case in Manhattan has postponed sentencing until after the 2024 election, meaning voters won’t know if the former President will face jail time as they head to the polls.

Greenhouse farmers will be able to write off their agricultural equipment from their personal property taxes permanently under a law signed Friday by Gov. Jared Polis.

Trump was asked at the Economic Club of New York what he plans to do about making childcare more affordable if he wins in November and outside of repeating the term childcare over and over, he veered off into how much money his tariffs on other countries are going to bring in. When will the media look at this guy's mental acuity on policy proposals and questions?
