Nikki Haley recently stated that she “had no interest in being in [Trump’s] cabinet,” after reportedly talking with a Trump ally.

Rep.

Popular radio host Charlamagne tha God weighed in on President Joe Biden’s cordial meeting with President-elect Donald Trump at the White House on Wednesday, and he admitted to having a hard time wrapping his head around how that all went down. During his Thursday morning broadcast, he recalled how Biden — along with the rest of his party and a whole host of media talking heads — had been referring to Trump as a “fascist” or suggesting that he was the second coming of Adolf Hitler just days earlier. What he didn’t understand, he said, was how Biden had pivoted so easily from calling Trump an “existential threat” to inviting him into the White House for a pleasant conversation. WATCH: Charlamagne on Biden welcoming Trump to White House: "What happened to the threat of democracy talk? What happened to the fascist talk? … I'm just trying to figure out, how do you go from, 'He's an existential threat to democracy' to 'Welcome back'?"@DailyCaller pic.twitter.com/b8a9jfvhGJ — Jason Cohen ?? (@JasonJournoDC) November 14, 2024 “I just don’t understand the White House visit,” he began. “Granted, I’m glad there’s a peaceful transition of power, but what happened to the threat of democracy talk? What happened to the fascist talk?” “By the way, I know I’ve said those things about Trump as well,” he continued. “But I’m not talking about me. I’m talking about his political opponents like President Biden. When they say it, it holds way more weight than me. I’m just trying to figure out, how to you go from ‘He’s an existential threat to democracy’ to ‘Welcome back’?” DJ Envy, Charlamagne’s cohost, weighed in then, noting that Biden had looked happy during the meeting and had been “cheesing” for the cameras. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Charlamagne went on to say that he understood Biden held himself up as an advocate for certain political “norms,” but still couldn’t quite make it all make sense in his mind. By the end of the segment, he appeared to give up entirely, saying, “I’m gonna stop minding white people’s business.” The popular host had broached the subject earlier, asking last Friday why prominent members of the Democratic Party had suddenly stopped referring to Trump as a “threat to democracy.” “Don’t y’all find it strange that now that he’s won, they’re not calling him a threat to democracy? They’re not calling him a fascist. I mean, damn, on Monday, they was just calling him that. I would think that, you know, if you really believe that, then somebody’s speech would be about how America ‘effed up and how things are about to be really bad. It just makes you wonder how much of it did they really believe, or how much of it was just politics. That’s all,” he said at the time.

“The View” cohost Sunny Hostin admitted that in her attempt to give Vice President Kamala Harris a softball, it actually backfired and might have been one of the things that resulted in the VP’s loss in the election to President-elect Donald Trump. During the show’s “Behind the Table” podcast, Hostin said even she was surprised with the answer after she asked Harris if there was anything “she would have done differently” from President Joe Biden in the last four years. Harris’ response — “there is not a thing that comes to mind” — was immediately used in Trump campaign ads across the country. “I followed up because I was surprised at the answer,” Hostin admitted. “Look, I think it wasn’t so much about the question, but it was really more about the answer. The reason I followed up was because that wasn’t a gotcha question. That was a layup, really.” Hostin said she thought the question was a chance for Harris “to explain to all the people who are saying ‘I want a change agent’” that she was that person based on things like having a different “lived experience” from Biden. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ “And I thought she would then say, ‘I would build on the wins we’ve had,’ and I had a laundry list of wins in my head, and she didn’t answer it that way, she said not a thing comes to mind,” Hostin explained, adding that it showed Harris’ loyalty to Biden.

Hostin was a staunch Harris supporter during the election, even downplaying evidence in polls that the VP was losing ground with certain parts of the electorate, as well as an NBC poll that showed that any lead the vice president had garnered from the September 10 debate has since evaporated, as previously reported. “Look, I think that Kamala Harris has been running a flawless campaign,” the host said, arguing that she would not have been able to raise $1 billion if there was no real momentum behind her. “I think it’s because people believe in her, and I think people are showing that by the amount of money that they are willing to give to the campaign.” “I think we have the press to blame for a lot of this,” she added. “Whoopi, you always say that you don’t believe in polls. I’m with you now, because I’m reading the press. First it was, ‘Kamala’s not doing enough press.’ Then she goes on this huge press tour, she was here, with us, I thought she was fantastic.” Virgina Kruta contributed to this piece.

Collegiate women’s volleyball players filed multiple lawsuits on Wednesday against the Mountain West Conference over the inclusion of trans-identifying male players in their sport. A dozen women have cited violations of their First Amendment rights and Title IX protections in response to San Jose State University’s biologically male star player Blaire Fleming’s participation in the MWC, prompting four schools in the conference to forfeit games against SJSU, OutKick reported. Several of Flemings’ SJSU teammates, like Captain Brooke Slusser and two former Spartans — along with female athletes from four other colleges — are part of the suit against the conference, its commissioner and SJSU officials over the conference’s adoption of the “Transgender participation policy” in September after the first school, Boise State, forfeited its game. The suit said that the policy is “intended to chill protests and other expressive conduct, including boycotts, on a women’s rights issue” of women athletes in the MWC. It also claims that the trans policy was adopted outside the “normal course of MW rules and procedures” and that it was an effort to prevent schools from exercising their First Amendment Rights, the outlet noted. This is HUGE. Female volleyball players in the Mountain West conference drop a bombshell lawsuit against the @MountainWest citing First Amendment & Title IX violations. Several of his SJSU teammates signed on as well. This is the way. Hold the line!!! ??https://t.co/Co6bFPUfEo — Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_) November 13, 2024 “Recently, the MWC, SJSU, and the other Defendants have collectively manipulated MWC rules, diminished sport opportunities for women, spread inaccurate information, used their positions to chill and suppress speech with which they disagree, and punished dozens of female collegiate volleyball student-athletes for taking a public stand for their right to compete in a separate sports category, all in a concerted effort to stamp out debate over women’s rights in sport,” the lawsuit read. “The NCAA, Mountain West Conference, and college athletic directors around the country are failing women,” Bill Bock, lead attorney for the plaintiffs and the pro-woman organization Independent Council On Women’s Sport (ICONS), which is funding and backing the lawsuit, said. “Because the administrators don’t have the courage to do their jobs, we have to ask the federal courts to do their jobs for them,” he added. The lawsuit requests emergency injunctive relief in advance of the MW women’s volleyball tournament in Las Vegas, which starts on Nov. 27. It also calls on either disqualifying SJSU and Fleming from competing in the tournament and/or removing the losses from the records of teams who forfeited SJSU games and therefore the wins from SJSU. Five schools have forfeited playing SJSU in protest of the biologically male star player on the CA team. Those schools include Southern Utah University, Boise State University, the University of Wyoming, Utah State University, and the University of Nevada.
