3:18 PM PT -- Ted Goodman, spokesman for the Michigan Republican Party, tells TMZ ... "Mallory McMorrow just revealed her deep disdain for Middle America, which is exactly in line with where the Democrat Party has been trending for decades.
He adds ... "McMorrow and today's Democrat Party abandoned hardworking families across Middle-America decades ago, and these deleted tweets only reaffirm this fact."
Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow has reportedly deleted thousands of tweets ... including some complaining about Michigan, the state she's running to represent.
The purge was reported Wednesday by CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski ... notably one year after the New York Post shared several of her eyebrow-raising X tweets. McMorrow was born in New Jersey, then spent time as a California resident. In an alleged 2014 tweet, she crapped all over Michigan, writing ... "Aaaand it's snowing. Screw you, Michigan. #NYCtoLA."
An alleged January 2017 tweet reads ... "There are days like these that make me miss California even more" in reply to a user who suggested "California should have its own diplomats" to "make sure we don't get nuked because of morons from the other side of the country."
President Donald Trumpis making waves over James Comey's "86 47" post ... and he's not letting it wash away.
Trump lit up Truth Social with a fiery post Wednesday night ... insisting the phrase isn't harmless slang -- it's a straight-up threat. In his words, "'86' is a mob term for 'kill him.' They say 86 him! 86 47 means 'kill President Trump.'"
He didn’t stop there ... Trump went full attack mode, branding Comey a "Dirty Cop, one of the worst," before dropping a chilling line: "EIGHT MILES OUT, SIX FEET DOWN!" -- that's one interpretation of what "86" means to some ... despite the term widely recognized as originating in the food service industry, a term for tossing someone out, or a menu item being out of stock.
Martha Stewart sounds like she's got a pretty informal relationship with King Charles III ... she says he's just "Chuck" to her.
We got Martha on her way out of The Whitby Hotel in New York City on Wednesday and our photog asked her if she was heading out to see King Charles and Queen Camilla.
Martha seemed confused about this Charles character ... saying she calls the King, "Chuck."
Our own Jacob is both bold and beautiful, because with a new haircut, he mustered the courage to ask a United States Senator out on a date ... well, sort of.
Jacob ran into Senator Katie Britt Wednesday near her office, and she actually came a runnin' ... because the two have history. Jacob tweeted Tuesday, asking if anyone had a recommendation for a barber, and Senator Britt stepped up and recommended the Senate barbershop.
Jacob went and got a Congressional styling and then ran into Senator Britt, who was more than impressed. She requested a pirouette, so Jacob happily obliged.
Senator Lindsey Graham says there's no return to Disney World on his calendar, but he does want to set the record straight on the ol' bubble wand ... and tells TMZ DC why he's about to be super busy.
Our guy Charlie Cotton got LG on Capitol Hill and asked him if he's going back to Florida during next week's recess -- yes, they're off AGAIN -- and the Gentleman from South Carolina took the occasion to explain why he was clutching the toy in Fantasyland during his previous two-week break.
Lindsey says he'd bought the bubble wand for a "friend's girl," and he has no clue of its current whereabouts.
Erika Kirk's tired of all the criticism she gets on a daily basis ... and, it sounds like the comedian Druksi may have pushed her over the edge.
Charlie Kirk's widow blasted all her haters during an episode of "The Charlie Kirk Show" ... starting off by talking comedians using "whiteface" to put her on blast.
ICYMI ... this seems to be an obvious reference to a viral video Druski shared back in March, which featured the Black comedian dressed in tons of makeup which did have him looking very similar to the media personality.
James Comey has turned himself in on Wednesday, after being indicted for allegedly threatening Donald Trump through a photo of seashells.
The former FBI director surrendered himself over to law enforcement before appearing for a brief hearing in Alexandria, Virginia ... and was reportedly in and out of court within 10 minutes.
There were no conditions of release set when Comey left court Wednesday ... and he wasn't asked to enter a plea, reports say.
In fact, his lawyers are reportedly planning to file motions against Trump's Justice Department ... telling the judge the DOJ was selectively and vindictively prosecuting their client.
ICYMI ... Comey posted a pic last year of a series of seashells arranged to read "86 47," implying he wanted to "86" the 47th president.
The DOJ argues this is a threat of violence against DT ... however Merriam-Webster says "86" is a slang term "meaning 'to throw out,' 'to get rid of,' or 'to refuse service to.'"
The ex-FBI boss had deleted the post because he didn't intend to imply he wanted Trump's presidency to come to a violent end ... but was still slapped with an indictment Tuesday that accused him of threatening DT.
This new indictment is Comey's second in 7 months ... and comes after Trump sacked Pam Bondi as attorney general and replaced her with Todd Blanche.
Rumor has it Bondi was ousted because Donald wanted her to be more aggressive in going after his enemies ... and Comey reportedly made that list.
When he was last indicted in September, it was for other charges -- making false statements and obstruction related to oral testimony -- that were ultimately dismissed.
So far, no date's been set for Comey's arraignment ... and it'll be interesting to see if anything sticks this time.
Especially since Matt Gaetz used that same slang when talking about how former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy, former RNC chair Ronna McDaniel, and former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell had all stepped down or been ousted from their positions.
Donald Trump's OG pick for Attorney General last year could torpedo the case against former FBI Director James Comey, all because Gaetz may have had Donald Trump's number.
As we reported, the Justice Department has charged Comey with threatening Trump by posting on his IG last May ... "86 47," captioned, "Cool shell formation on my beach walk." DOJ says 86 is a clear threat to kill the 47th President -- Donald Trump.
Webster's Dictionary defines 86 this way ... "Eighty-six is slang meaning 'to throw out,' 'to get rid of,' or 'to refuse service to.'" So there are multiple meanings of 86 ... even if you interpret "to get rid of" as to kill, there are other meanings.
King Charles is cracking jokes now??? Yup, the British monarch had the White House in stitches, dragging America’s colonial past with a royal wink!
During Tuesday night’s event, Charles clocked Donald Trump’s comment that without the U.S., Europe would be speaking German ... before quipping, "Dare I say, if it wasn’t for us, you’d be speaking French!"
Jimmy Kimmel is in the middle of another political dustup after a joke he made about President Trump ... but one person is in the talk show host's corner -- and it's somewhat surprising.
Waiting for your permission to load TikTok Post.
Adam Carolla defended Kimmel on a recent episode of his self-titled podcast ... saying Kimmel wasn't out of line with the joke he's being hammered for by the White House and MAGA after the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.
Adam said of the now infamous first lady "widow" joke ... “That’s a pretty typical roast joke. It is also a trope: Any younger, beautiful woman who’s married to an older guy, especially if the guy’s rumored to be sort of a douchey, you would make that joke at any roast.”
Jimmy Kimmel is loving PresidentTrump ... well, he's loving Trump's humor, at least, because the comedian just busted POTUS cracking the same exact death joke that has Kimmel on the hot seat.
On Tuesday night, Kimmel gleefully teed up the clip of DJT's speech for King Charles III's visit to the the White House ... where Trump turns to Melania and tells her there's no way they'll make it to 63 years of marriage, because ... well, he's too damn old.
This comes after FLOTUS and POTUS demanded ABC fire Kimmel from his late-night show, claiming he'd made a tasteless joke about Trump dying -- insinuating the remark somehow influenced the White House Correspondents Dinner shooter.
ICYMI ... Jimmy's quip last Thursday was that Melania"had the glow of an expectant widow."
New photos show the alleged White House Correspondents' Dinner gunman snapping off a selfie minutes before the feds say he opened fire during the assassination attempt.
A memo submitted by the government Wednesday shows Cole Allen taking the snapshot in his Washington Hilton hotel room while armed to the teeth with weapons, including a knife, and several accessories ... and he took it less than 30 minutes ahead of allegedly charging into the lobby outside the WHCD.
The image shows Allen smirking while posing in the mirror, sporting a sheathed knife, a shoulder holster, pliers, wire cutters, and a small leather bag "consistent in appearance" with the ammo-filled bag he allegedly had on him when he was apprehended ... according to the doc.
Under the category of No Hard Feelings, George Washington himself was an invited guest to watch King Charles address Congress, and he was thoroughly impressed!
G.W. was the guest of Rep. Michael Cloud, and America's 1st Prez watched intently as the King spoke to members of Congress and other dignitaries Tuesday.
His review -- BRILLIANT!!!
The OG non-religious father is well aware his experiment -- which is now 250 years old -- is still a work in progress. George feels like the thing that brought us together as a nation is still an important aspirational goal: Unity.
Gotta say ... he looks good for being 300. Looks like Kris Jenner's plastic surgeon put in some hours!
Stephen Miller's wife, Katie, wants everyone to know her husband was not using her as a human shield during the alleged assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner Saturday night ... despite what photos seem to show.
She went on Monday's episode of "The Ingraham Angle"on Fox News to set the record straight ... insisting the White House deputy chief of staff was protecting her, not hiding behind her.
Katie told Laura Ingraham ... "I went first because the threat was behind us."
Waiting for your permission to load the Twitter Tweet.
If you look at the picture circulating social media ... it's easy to see why people thought Stephen was shielding himself behind his 8-month-pregnant wife.
Looks like James Comey's facing another indictment ... seven months after his last one. Two sources familiar tell CNNthat Donald Trump's Justice Department has indicted the former FBI director once again.
This new investigation is in connection with Comey's Instagram post from last year ... the one-time Trump official was accused of making threats against his ex-boss. Comey posted a photograph of seashells arranged on beach sand spelling out "8647" ... which some officials accuse him of covertly, or not so covertly, saying he wanted Trump -- who's the 47th American president -- removed from office, perhaps violently.
In hospitality/restaurant shorthand, to "86" someone is to throw them out of a location -- usually a bar or restaurant. It also means the restaurant has run out of a menu item. But "86" could also be taken to have more violent connotations ... and Comey deleted the post shortly after the accusations of a threat on Trump's life.
The last time this happened ... the ex-FBI boss was interviewed by the Secret Service, and the case was quietly dropped in May last year.
Rep. Rashida Tlaib thinks Senator Lindsey Graham is living in Fantasy Land by asking taxpayers to foot the bill for the White House ballroom, because she says it's the LAST thing Americans want.
Charlie got the Congresswoman from Michigan Tuesday on Capitol Hill, and she gave him an earful over the proposal that your tax dollars could pay $400 million for the structure.
As for the argument it's a secure location, thus preventing another shooting at an outside venue ... Tlaib says this is the first time there's been such an incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, and she blames it on lax security measures. She says there was no metal detector -- in fact, there was, but the shooter sprinted past it.
