Steve Bannon, the hard-right political activist who guided Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign, was arrested and charged in New York City with allegedly defrauding a charity of $1 million....
Steve Bannon has always been portrayed as Death incarnate in “Saturday Night Live” cold opens, and this week the actor under the cloak was finally unmasked to gasps from the audience. Who was it? Alec Baldwin, of course, is classic as Trump. Kate McKinnon has been stellar playing Kellyann Conway and Melissa McCarthy was hilarious playing former White House spokesman Sean Spicer....
The crisis surrounding Donald Trump’s White House has risen to a Category Five Shit Storm following publication of Michael Wolff’s book. The administration's only media strategy is to cry “lies” and “fake news,” but it’s clearly not enough. Trump has gone to that well once too often to deflect critical news media reports....
Stephen Colbert thought he was kidding when he joked that Donald Trump didn’t want to be president. Who knew it was actually true? But revelations in a new book shows that it really was as bad as everyone thought. Colbert reached new heights last night (Jan. 4) riffing on Michael Wolfe’s new book “Fire and Fury.”...
Trevor Noah wins the late night comedy award for the wittiest description of Donald Trump’s nasty feud with Steve Bannon. “Steve Bannon beefing with President Trump? It’s like ‘Alien vs. Sexual Predator,’” Noah said. Ouch!...
Donald Trump and family gather for the traditional decorating of the White House Christmas tree (maybe for the last time) in a hilarious “Saturday Night Live” skit that brings back all our favorite characters, including a raving mad Omarosa.

Trump (Alec Baldwin) and the First Lady Melania (Cecily Strong) have declared this year’s Christmas totem the “Tree of Shame.”...
Steve Bannon took a shellacking on “The Daily Show.” Host Trever Noah deconstructed the hard-right pol’s “60 Minutes” interview and discovered the self-proclaimed “Street Fighter,” is a push-over. To make matters worse, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie delivered a blistering takedown of his own on PBS. Bannon’s been cruisin’ for a bruisin’ ever since he was shit-canned at the White House. ...
Donald Trump was a hit in Phoenix… oh, wait, that was Alex Baldwin on “Saturday Night Live’s” summer show “Weekend Update.” It’s getting harder to tell the two apart as the president plunges further down the rabbit hole. Baldwin has honed his Trump impression into an art. Plus, the Donald is an unending source of material. ...
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman today (Nov. 17) ramped up statewide efforts to crack down on hate crimes inspired by Donald Trump’s election, vowing to protect religious and ethnic minorities, women, gays and immigrants from attacks. He launched the effort with an “urgent bulletin” to law enforcement offices that provides guidance and support to “identify, investigate, and prosecute hate crimes.”...
