El-Sayed made the remarks during a Thursday appearance on CNN's "The Source" with host Kaitlan Collins. Asked directly why his federal payment proposals differ from the $5,000 dividend plan he was criticizing, El-Sayed argued that his vision addresses "the affordability crisis in this country" rather than attempting to buy voters' loyalty. The exchange laid bare a tension that El-Sayed's Republican opponents will likely press hard in the months ahead: how does a candidate attack one form…Open

The exchange centered on a 2020 social media post that has resurfaced as Hong campaigns for the governor's mansion. In that post, Just The News reported , Hong wrote plainly: "Cancel Thanksgiving. Should have done this in 1621. If it takes a worldwide pandemic…Open

President Trump used his first-ever speech at the White House Correspondents' Dinner to compare CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins to transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney, a jab that drew sharp pushback from the network even as the evening mixed humor with tributes to those who survived April's assassination attempt. Trump took the stage Friday night at the Waldorf Astoria in Washington, D.C., and wasted little time singling out Collins, who had just received a journalism award from the White House Correspondents' Association. He told the crowd of roughly 700 guests that he thought Collins "had really made it big with a major new sponsorship", then delivered the punchline. "But then I informed her that it wasn't her on the Bud Light can, it was…Open
