Rita Palma, a campaign consultant for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., stated that her top priority is to prevent Joe Biden from winning this year’s presidential election.
“Things, I guess, will change overtime because you do only pick one candidate at the end of the day,” Palma stated during a meeting with Republicans in New York.
“But the Kennedy voter and the [Donald Trump] voter – the enemy – our mutual enemy – is Biden,” she added. “Since Biden is counting on us with [Kennedy] in the mix, my – my thought is for the Republicans.”
“See Bobby – right now – he’s pulling from both sides,” she continued. “Right now, he’s actually pulling a bit more from Biden, which explains why the DNC [Democratic National Committee] is kind of ganging up on him. They have a special committee to go after independent candidates.”

Vice President Kamala Harris’ appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” has been postponed.
The VP will no longer appear on the late night show on Tuesday, April 16, and the appearance is set to be rescheduled to a later date, according to an individual with knowledge of the decision.
No reason was given for the postponement, and ABC did not provide a comment. According to a report from Deadline, who first reported the news, Harris’ appearance was postponed after her trip to Los Angeles was cut short ahead of her travels back to Washington, D.C.
The news comes just days after Harris was announced to join Kimmel from his Los Angeles stage. The last time the VP appeared on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” was in March 2019, when Harris was campaigning for president.

Three key communication staffers in Sen. John Fetterman‘s (D-Pennsylvania) office have resigned and moved on to other left-leaning politicians within one month due to Fetterman’s stances on issues such as Israel and immigration.
Joe Calvello, formerly the director of communications for Fetterman’s Senate office and his 2022 campaign, has joined Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson‘s office as the chief strategy officer. Calvello expressed his excitement in a statement released by the City of Chicago, “It’s an absolute honor and a privilege to come to Chicago and serve the people of this great city.”
Nicholas Gavio, Fetterman’s deputy communication director, announced on X that he would be assuming the role of mid-Atlantic communications director for the Working Families Party. Gavio had previously worked on Fetterman’s 2022 campaign and in the office of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont).

Exclusive: Vice President Kamala Harris is heading back to late-night.
Deadline understands that Harris will appear as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Tuesday April 16.
It is her latest appearance on the ABC show; Harris previously appeared on Kimmel’s show in March 2019, when she was running for top office.
During that appearance, she talked about the campaign trail, said “age is more than a chronological fact” when asked whether Biden or Senator Bernie Sanders were too old to run for President, and noted that she was “open to the discussion” of getting rid of the Electoral college.
Kimmel has previously defended Vice President Harris’ low approval ratings, blaming “sexism and racism”.
Last year, Harris appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and in 2022 made her first late-night appearance since becoming VP on Late Night with Seth Meyers, where she talked up her administration’s plans to fight climate change,...

Former President Donald Trump accused President Joe Biden of being high on cocaine during his State of the Union speech last month and demanded that the president take a drug test before future debates.
“I think what happened is you know that white stuff that they happened to find, which happened to be cocaine in the White House, I don’t know, I think something’s going on there, because I watched this State of the Union, and he was all jacked up at the beginning,” Trump said during an interview with the conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt.
Trump was referencing the discovery last summer of a powdered substance in the White House, which later tested positive for cocaine. The Secret Service was unable to determine who left it there but speculated it was a visitor.
“By the end, he was fading fast,” Trump added. “There’s something going on there.

The office of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) in Burlington, Vermont, was set on fire on Friday morning. According to authorities, an unidentified man entered the office, sprayed an accelerant and set the door on fire. Due to the flames, staff members were unable to reach the exit. Sanders was not present at the time. No persons were injured.
Firefighters rushed to the third floor of the building where the fire occurred. Surveillance footage captured the suspect in a black jacket, dark pants, orange beanie, white sneakers and holding a white bag. Authorities have yet to uncover the motive behind the suspected arson.
“A significant fire engulfed the door and part of the vestibule, impeding the egress of staff members who were working in the office and endangering their lives,” Burlington police reported.

Before I watched “Civil War,” two publicists working on the dystopian thriller assured me that it isn’t a political film.
In the movie, Kirsten Dunst plays a dogged photojournalist muscling her way through a smoldering Washington D.C., trying to document the bitter conflict between two heavily armed factions tearing America apart. I didn’t buy that it didn’t have something to say about this moment. And neither does Dunst.
“So, do you believe that it’s not political? I mean … it’s an anti war film,” Dunst tells me with a shrug. “This movie, after you see it, you want to talk about it for a while with people. And I think any movie that does that is incredible.”

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-vt) is leading renewed efforts to institute a 32-hour work week nationwide — one that crucially does not result in a decrease in pay.
Sanders, who helms the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (Help), will introduce a bill Thursday that seeks to reduce the standard federal work week from 40 hours to 32 hours, without a reduction in compensation. Sanders justified the shift in work hours by citing productivity increases made via automation and AI.

Updated: The rematch is on.
Joe Biden and Donald Trump each clinched their party’s presidential nominations, after their amassed a majority of delegates in Tuesday’s primaries.
Biden crossed the 1,968 delegates needed for the Democratic nomination with his win of the Georgia primary, according to network projections.
Donald Trump passed the 1,215 delegates needed to secure the Republican nomination after he was projected to win the Washington state primary.
While the milestone was covered across cable news tonight, the Biden vs. Trump rematch has been clear for some time — given the polls and their victories in early primaries.
Biden faced nominal opposition from Marianne Williamson and Rep. Dean Phillips (D-mn), who have not managed to perform in the double digits in the primary contests so far. After Super Tuesday, Phillips dropped out and endorsed Biden.

You can tell it’s spring.
In Vermont, sap flows out of maple trees. But for Hollywood, movies go off like fireworks in the Lone Star State at SXSW.
The third edition of the Austin festival since coming out of the pandemic — and dual strikes — hasn’t lost its shine: When it comes to creating an “it” movie for the spring or summer, SXSW remains a helluva tastemaker event to stoke the 18-34 crowd.
It’s where A Quiet Place triggered its first screams in 2018 before morphing into a $638M franchise (the third film is due this summer), and it’s where Everything Everywhere All at Once in 2022 began its yearlong journey to Oscars 2023, taking home several trophies including Best Picture — a first for any SXSW world premiere.

This cycle’s Super Tuesday lacked suspense — and that showed in the viewership numbers.
About 11.4 million viewers tuned into coverage during the peak hour of 10 p.m. Et, when the three major broadcast networks joined with the three major cable networks with live coverage, according to early numbers from Nielsen. That’s far less than the nearly 19 million who tuned in across those networks during the last cycle, in 2020.
But Super Tuesday 2020 featured the surprise showing of Joe Biden against Bernie Sanders, in a race that was still undoubtedly competitive. By contrast, there were few surprises in this year’s results, as Donald Trump and Biden dominated their respective contests. Nikki Haley, Trump’s last remaining rival for the nomination, dropped out earlier today, as did Dean Phillips, who had challenged Biden.

The suspense this Super Tuesday may be in watching how all of the networks try to make the night suspenseful.
Some 16 states and one territory will vote: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont and Virginia. A Democratic caucus also is being held in American Samoa, and Iowa Democrats also will reveal their results.
But with Joe Biden and Donald Trump on their way to a rematch in the 2024 presidential election, coverage Tuesday will focus on margins of victory, when each candidate will clinch their nomination and what’s next from now until Election Day. There also will be attention to down-ballot races, including California’s Senate primary to fill the seat long held by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-ca).

When Saturday Night Live castmember Bowen Yang doesn’t entirely approve of a guest on the iconic NBC late night show, he has ways of making it known.
The latest example is Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley, who made a controversial surprise appearance on the show this weekend, during which she played herself in a mock CNN town hall sketch.
Yang, who has been an SNL castmember since 2019, took to Instagram after the show and posted a photo of a backstage note addressed to Haley that read, “Welcome to Studio 8H! From, Lorne + everyone at SNL.” Yang commented on the post, “everyone! :)”
That post has since been deleted, but here is a screenshot:

Nikki Haley made a surprise appearance in the Saturday Night Live cold open tonight, this time as a “concerned South Carolina voter” who asks questions of Donald Trump (James Austin Johnson) at a CNN town hall.
The skit had Gayle King and Charles Barkley, hosts of CNN’s King Charles, moderating the town hall with the former president, with Johnson again playing Trump and with his propensity to sprinkle in political rhetoric with a pop culture stream of consciousness.
Haley, who has stepped up her attacks on Trump following the New Hampshire primary, drew loud applause from the SNL audience as she appeared in the town hall audience to ask him a question.
“Why won’t you debate Nikki Haley?” she asked Trump.
Johnson, as Trump, replied, “Oh my God! It’s her, the woman who was in charge of security on January 6th. It’s Pelosi.”

Donald Trump’s victory in the New Hampshire primary Tuesday may have been driven by record turnout, but viewership across the three major news networks was way down from four years ago, with primetime coverage averaging almost 6 million.
In 2020, almost 8.7 million watched the coverage of the primary, which focused on the race for the Democratic nomination.
That’s still better than the 4.67 million who watched the coverage of the Iowa caucuses on the networks last week, when networks went up against an NFL playoff game and the Emmy Awards.
Fox News topped this year’s primetime New Hampshire coverage, averaging 3.26 million, compared to 1.75 million for MSNBC and 994,000 for CNN. In the 25-54 demo, Fox News averaged 453,000, followed by CNN with 246,000 and MSNBC with 237,000.
Peak viewership came in the 8-9 p.m. Et hour, when networks called the race for Trump. Fox News averaged 3.91 million, followed by MSNBC with 1.98 million and CNN with 1.25 million.

But there’s a prize that has eluded her all these years: the Grammy. This year she received her seventh nomination from the recording academy. Will she finally take the trophy home?
This year she’s up for Best Audio Book, Narration and Storytelling Recording for “Big Tree,” the audio book recording of Brian Selznick‘s middle-grade adventure novel. She was previously nominated five times for recording children’s projects: “The Velveteen Rabbit,” “The Tale of Peter Rabbit,” “The Tailor of Gloucester,” “The One and Only Shrek” and “Charlotte’s Web.” And she has one musical nomination for her contributions to the “Mamma Mia!

Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Oklahoma) said that Oklahomans “would be pretty upset” if he had not stood up to Teamsters leader Sean O’Brien during a Senate hearing on Tuesday.
Mullin and O’Brien went back and forth at each other amid a conversation about labor unions and even threatened a fight, with Mullin standing up from his chair before Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) stopped him.
Mullin defended his actions during an interview with Sean Hannity later that day.
“He called you out,” Hannity said to Mullin. “You called him out for calling you out. And that’s kind of old school, the way it used to be.”
When asked if his conduct aligned with what is expected of a U.S. senator, Mullin responded that he is “a guy from Oklahoma first.”

Leslie Jones is disappointed by the near fight that occurred in the Senate on Tuesday, but not because anything Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin did. No — the comedian’s displeasure has to do with Bernie Sanders breaking things up.
“Back off, Bernie! Bernie, shut up, they was about to fight! I wanted to see that!” Jones said on her second night guest hosting “The Daily Show” on Comedy Central. “Is that what America has come to, people fighting in the Senate? Because if it is, I want in.”
“Lindsey Graham, I want you in the ring. Ted Cruz, bring your weird ass beard so I can beat your ass. Mitch! Mitch! Mitch!” Jones yelled while snapping at the widely shared video of McConnell freezing. “Aw, somebody already hit him.”

Capitol Hill was the site of more than one tussle between lawmakers on Tuesday.
Former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy got physical with Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenessee). Burchett accused McCarthy of elbowing him in “the kidney” in a Capitol hallway.
Burchett was one of the conservative members of the House that voted to oust McCarthy.
Burchett told reporters that McCarthy elbowed him in the back as he was talking to a reporter.
“I ran after McCarthy and I said, ‘What’d you so that for?’ He acted like, ‘Oh, I didn’t do anything,'” Burchett explained.
Burchett then yelled at McCarthy, screaming “Hey Kevin, have some guts.”
McCarthy denied intentionally hurting Burchett.
“I didn’t shove or elbow him, it’s a tight hallway,” he said.
Hours later, during a House Oversight Committee hearing on the General Services Administration, Rep. James Comer (R-Kentucky) engaged in a heated conversation with Rep.

On Tuesday, Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Oklahoma) challenged the president of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, Sean O’Brien, to a fight telling him to “stand your b— up” and settle a longstanding conflict during a congressional hearing.
“This is the time, this is the place,” Mullin said to O’Brien after reading a series of tweets that O’Brien had posted about the senator in the past. “If you want to run your mouth, we can be two consenting adults. We can finish it here.”
Though the two men never got face to face, they went back and forth insulting each other for around six minutes while Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont) yelled at them to stop.
“You are a United States senator!” Sanders scolded Mullin.
Earlier this year, O’Brien took to X, formerly Twitter, to call Mullin a “moron” and say he was “full of s—” after Mullin criticized O’Brien at another hearing.

Congress once again got pretty close to a physical brawl during a committee meeting this week, and the women of “The View” were disgusted — but also a little amused — by it on Wednesday morning. For host Sara Haines, it was reminiscent of a certain someone who went viral on “Dr. Phil.”
On Tuesday, Congressman Tim Burchett said he “got elbowed in the back” by Kevin McCarthy, while Senator Bernie Sanders had to actually break up a fight between Oklahoma senator Markwayne Mullin and the president of the Teamsters union, Sean O’Brien.
After a disagreement, Mullin said “You want to run your mouth? We can be two consenting adults. We can finish it here,” and challenged O’Brien to “stand your butt up.”
“Why did they all turn into the ‘catch me outside’ girl?” Haines mocked. “Like, they’re literally ready to beat the crap out of every single one of them.

Oklahoma Sen. Markwayne Mullin stood up and tried to fight a congressional witness during a Senate Health, Education, Labor & Pensions (Help) Committee hearing on Tuesday.
Mullin and Teamsters President Sean O’Brien have been beefing for months, with Mullin even challenging O’Brien to an Mma-style fight this summer. O’Brien had previously called Mullin a “Greedy CEO who pretends like he’s self made. In reality, just a clown & fraud. Always has been, always will be.” O’Brien told Mullin to “quit the tough guy act in these senate hearings.

Members of Congress are seeking to avoid a government shutdown by the end of the week and thousands of demonstrators have gathered on the Capitol lawn in support of Israel, but the real theatrics have been inside, with resentments nearly coming to physical blows.
Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tn) accused former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-ca) of elbowing him in the kidney as Burchett was doing an interview Tuesday with NPR. Burchett was one of the eight Republicans who voted to oust McCarthy as speaker last month.
NPR congressional correspondent Claudia Grisales posted a play-by-play of what she saw happen. She wrote that as she was interviewing Burchett, McCarthy walked by with his security detail and “McCarthy shoved Burchett.”
Burchett lunged toward her, she wrote, but she thought it “was a joke.”

With the SAG-AFTRA strike in the rearview, Fran Drescher will soon have more time on her hands to consider career moves outside of union negotiations. But she knows for sure one job she doesn’t want.
“Meryl Streep said to me, ‘This is great, now go run for president,’” the president of Hollywood’s largest union recounts with a laugh over the phone Thursday afternoon, just one day after the union’s negotiating committee — led by Drescher — announced that they had reached a tentative three-year contract deal with Hollywood studios after spending 118 days on strike. “I don’t want that job. Oh boy.”
Instead, Drescher says, she is eager to find “something where I can leverage this for the greater good.” This is referring to the new name recognition and standing that the woman once synonymous with The Nanny has amassed after leading SAG-AFTRA’s 160,000 members through its stand...

It’s been a tough week in the world, and that posed a difficult challenge for Bill Maher on his Real Time show on Friday. How do you conduct a show built on political comedy when the subject matter is so grim?
But Maher navigated the thorny issues with grace, finding the humor in throwbacks to old reliables like Kanye West and Donald Trump while keeping the focus on whatever solutions might be gleaned from his guests.
Maher made no secret of his allegiance, stating up front during his panel discussion that he believed Israel has the moral high ground in this conflict. That was challenged at times by James Kirchick, columnist for Tablet Magazine, writer-at-large for Air Mail, and author of Secret City: The Hidden History of Gay Washington, and particularly Matt Duss, executive vice president at the Center for International Policy and former foreign policy advisor to Senator...

Kennedy Jr. (“Fit to Be President!”), the men darting around in dark suits and sunglasses (stand-ins for the Secret Service detail Kennedy has still not received), the throngs of jubilant supporters, and the giant tour buses bearing the candidate’s grinning countenance, the entire spectacle would have made a convenient diversion for anyone planning an elaborate heist of the Declaration of Independence.

Hello Dankness Review: A Tiresome Feature-Length Shitpost Remixing American Pop Culture and Politics
If the joy of art is that it can be interpreted in infinite ways over time, then is a project which “remixes” classic movie scenes by forcing them into the current political climate redundant in concept? Take Joe Dante’s The Burbs, one of the key films featured in art collective Soda Jerk’s recycled musical Hello Dankness, and which remains relevant because its combination of suburban malaise and paranoia continues to echo into our sharply divided political climate. Does lazily editing yard signs for Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump into characters’ front gardens really feel like a bold new addition to such an older work? Or does it just state the obvious as to how a modern audience might interpret the character archetypes it presented us with in the first place?

Spoilers for "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" follow.
It's been over a week since season 2 of "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" wrapped. I'd call the season a success; it built upon the rock-solid first season and swung further toward the fences. "Strange New Worlds" season 2 was daring, goofy, and pushed "Star Trek" into new frontiers while capping off with a bold cliffhanger right out of "The Next Generation."
While the premiere is at least a year away, it was confirmed back in March 2023 that "Strange New Worlds" has been renewed for a third season. The cast has already floated some ideas; Rebecca Romijn (Commander Una-Chin Riley/Number One) wants an episode showing how her character met Captain Christopher Pike (Anson Mount), for example. But it's not just the show's cast and crew with hopes and dreams for season 3.
After season 1 ended, I wrote a list of what /Film wanted out...

SAG-AFTRA and Hollywood’s largest employers are wrestling over complicated contract proposals in a business turned inside-out by the transition from linear to streaming.
But some of what’s on the table isn’t so complicated. Some of the discord between labor and management that led SAG-AFTRA to go on strike on July 13 is rooted in money and the hard reality of making minimum rates in Hollywood.
SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher has vowed publicly that securing a hefty increase in minimum pay rates across the board is a deal-breaker issue for the union. Talk to any established working actor and it becomes clear why. Most of them say they’ve been dragged back to working for scale in a marketplace that has paid high-wattage stars record fees but put the squeeze on everyone else down the call sheet.

These days, Sean Gunn has emerged as something of a spokesperson during the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. The actor has taken aim at several studio heads, including Bob Iger, the CEO of Disney.
Bob Iger raised eyebrows and drew attention last week for his comments on the strike
Bob Iger may have made a mistake on July 13. The Disney CEO agreed to sit down for an interview with CNBC while attending the Sun Valley Conference. The reinstated CEO spoke freely about the strike.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher delivered an impassioned livestream interview with Sen. Bernie Sanders on Tuesday evening, where they discussed the dual strikes that have brought Hollywood to a standstill.
Drescher tore into the studios’ executives and their negotiating body, the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers. The union chief also criticized Disney CEO Bob Iger, who called the actors’ demands “not realistic” on July 13 while attending an exclusive media mogul gathering in Sun Valley hosted by an investment bank.
“He stuck his foot in it so bad that you notice none of the other CEOs are opening their mouths,” Drescher said. “There he is, sitting in his designer clothes and just got on his private jet at the billionaire’s camp, telling us we’re unrealistic when he’s making $78,000 a day. How do you deal with someone like that who’s so tone-deaf? Are you an ignoramus? I don’t understand.

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-vt) seized on the SAG-AFTRA strike in an online conversation with President Fran Drescher on Tuesday evening, as they both bashed Bob Iger and other CEOs, and made the case for why the actors’ walkout should be of concern of all workers.
Appearing on a screen with the message “end corporate greed,” Sanders and Drescher characterized the entertainment industry as part of an all trend in the economy to marginalize workers amid technological change, while top corporate executives become wealthier.
Sanders’ event opened with a clip from Walt Disney Co. CEO Bob Iger’s interview with CNBC last week from Sun Valley, where he told the network’s David Faber that the contract demands of actors and writers were not realistic.
Asked by Sanders about Iger’s comments, Drescher said, “You know, I don’t even want to make it about him. He stuck his foot...

Nicolas Winding Refn is sharing his support — and bafflement — with the current state of Hollywood.
The “Drive” and “Only God Forgives” writer-director discussed with IndieWire the ongoing SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes that have put Hollywood at a standstill.
“I’m all for it. Burn it all down to make it emerge again, almost,” the Danish director told IndieWire. “And I think in terms of what’s happening right now in the industry, business-wise, I think it’s just another piece of a global problem of just the inequalities, and the lack of sharing of opportunities, is just rising above what people are able to accept. Look at your own [U.S.] presidencies for the last 10 to 15 years. So what happened? And yet no one really learns from it. So all you can really do is go back and look at the French Revolution and remember what they did at the end: They chopped off everyone’s head,...

“The President believes all workers – including actors – deserve fair pay and benefits,” Robyn Patterson, a White House spokesperson, said in a statement obtained by Deadline. “The President supports workers’ right to strike and hopes the parties can reach a mutually beneficial agreement.”
Previously, Biden commented on the ongoing WGA strike, saying he hoped the writers would get the “fair deal they deserve as soon as possible.”

“Happy Juneteenth!”
The holiday, which was designated a federal holiday in 2021 and has been recognized within Black and African-American communities for far longer than that, has gained broader recognition in recent years.
Still, for many Americans there is much to learn about the new holiday. Many people of all races remain unsure of what Juneteenth is, mostly because not much is taught about the holiday in public schools.
Juneteenth, also referred to as Freedom Day or Jubilee Day, commemorates the total abolition of slavery in the U.S. that took place on June 19, 1865. Although President Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation three years earlier — making slavery illegal by Jan. 1, 1863 — many enslaved people were still not free because slave owners in the south, and particularly Texas, neglected to tell the people they enslaved for months. In fact, many slave owners relocated the enslaved and plantations to Texas because it was viewed...

In the Aughts, Killer Mike was a fiery maelstrom, the South’s answer to Ice Cube, and an Atlanta polemicist comfortable with both dope-boy fantasies and bruising Black politics. But it’s been eleven years since R.A.P. Music, a classic pairing with rapper/producer El-p that inspired the two to form the world-conquering duo Run the Jewels. On his sixth album, Michael, the rapper focuses on his personal life, particularly his late mother and grandmother, with uncharacteristic empathy and restraint, even as he continues to utilize his uniquely brusque vocal style.
