Trump news – live: Mueller allegedly drafted indictment for the president, Fire and Fury author Michael Wolff claims

Here's more on Trump's bizarre anti-technology rant to sailors and marines aboard the the USS Wasp.

How do you like your catapults: steam or electric?

It's a good thing Donald Trump is so concerned about "fake news" and political bias on social media otherwise who knows what kind of misleading rubbish people might be exposed to online?

Don Jr is bashing his father's 2020 challengers in the old man's absence.

The issue of voter suppression reared its head at the midterm elections last November, particularly in the state of Georgia where Democrat Stacey Abrams warned thousands of rural African-Americans had been wrongly denied a chance to have their say.

Now an elected official has been held accountable over the same practice in Texas and forced to resign.

Republican acting secretary of state David Whitley stepped down on Monday after wrongly questioning the US citizenship of some 95,000 local residents in January.

The state's attorney general Ken Paxton, also a Republican, promptly tweeted a “VOTER FRAUD ALERT” summarising Whitley’s findings and President Trump repeated Whitley’s claims in a tweet of his own two days later.

Whitley was forced to rescind his advisory on Friday and stop the purging of the state's electoral rolls as part of a settlement with multiple voting rights groups.

Any chance Trump will admit his part in disseminating false information now that Whitley has been been forced out? Somehow I doubt it. 

By most metrics, Joe Biden is set to cruise into the Democratic nomination, but there are some worrying signs for the former vice president as he seeks to become president for the third time.

According to a new report from POLITICO, the attendance at Mr Biden's campaign launch rally in Philadelphia and during his first swing through Iowa left something to be desired compared to some others in the 2020 field. Others who are looking strong by that metric? Elizabeth Warren and Pete Buttigieg, according to that political news outlet.

“I started to think the polls were wrong about Biden because it’s not what we’re seeing on the ground,” Aimee Allison, the founder and president of She the People, told POLITICO>

Some Supreme Court news coming out today: America's highest court will not hear a challenge to a transgender bathroom policy in a Pennsylvania school district.

The court's decision not to hear the case means that children in the school will be allowed to use the restroom that aligns with their gender indentity.

Some more Supreme Court news: The court has decided that it will hear a case that could determine whether Border Patrol agents can be charged in US courts for killing Mexican citizens on the southern border.

The case involves the death of a 15-year-old boy who was shot by officers while playing a game that involved running across the border temporarily. The family is seeking damages.

And even more Supreme Court news from this morning: The court has reversed a lower court ruling to uphold a fetal remains law in Indiana, which was actually signed into law by vice president Mike Pence.

The court will not hear the larger case, but determined that requiring the remains of a fetus to be buried or cremated does not constitute an "undue burden" on women, and could therefore stand.

Amy Klobuchar is trying to gain some momentum in the Democratic primary field, and said during a recent campaign stop that the late senator John McCain recited the names of dictators during Donald Trump's inauguration.

It's quite the charge : "The day when I sat on that stage between Bernie and John McCain and John McCain kept reciting to me names of dictators during that speech because he knew more than any of us what we were facing as a nation."

Meanwhile, his daughter, Meghan McCain, pushed back and asked that her father's legacy not be invoked in presidential politics.
