There is more to Donald Trump and Bette Midler’s recent Twitter altercation than what first meets the eye, according to Jimmy Kimmel, who showed viewers just how deep this rabbit hole goes during Wednesday’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

“This, by the way, is not the first time that Trump has lashed out at Bette Midler. This has been going on for years,” the ABC late-night host said in his opening monologue, referring to Potus’ Tuesday Twitter jab at “washed up psycho” Midler, after she apologized for sharing a fake quote from him.

“He’s criticized her looks, her singing, her appearance on the Oscars,” Kimmel continued. “He doesn’t like her at all, which made me wonder why, where [does] this animosity came from? And I’ve been doing some research and I think I figured it out. It all starts with a popular movie from 1993: ‘Hocus Pocus.'...

A report Kim Jong Un demanded from the U.S. and President Donald Trump approved $2M for hospitalization costs of Otto Warmbier weighed on Trump Friday morning. He took to Twitter:

No money was paid to North Korea for Otto Warmbier, not two Million dollars, not anything else. This is not the Obama Administration that paid 1.8 Billion Dollars for four hostages, or gave five terrorist hostages plus, who soon went back to battle, for traitor Sgt. Bergdah!

and….

“President Donald J. Trump is the greatest hostage negotiator that I know of in the history of the United States. 20 hostages, many in impossible circumstances, have been released in last two years! No money was paid.” Cheif Hostage Negotiator, USA!

“Cheif’ shot up to top-trending worldwide on Twitter, wiith most responders agreeing the position of “Cheif Hostage Negotiator, USA!” doesn’t actually exist, though others speculated the post might be held by John Barron,...

Stephen Colbert joked on “The Late Show” that Donald Trump talking about ending the Russia investigation “about 20 times” Sunday sounds like the Trump definition of insanity.

During his opening monologue, Colbert mentioned an NBC News story about Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, who said he played golf with Trump over the weekend, and that Trump repeatedly talked about ending the investigation by Special Counsel Robert Mueller.

“According to Lindsey, during the outing, Trump brought up ending the Russia probe about 20 times,” Colbert said. “You know what they say: Trying the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is the definition of a ‘very stable genius.’ “

The “very stable genius” joke was a reference to Trump’s tweets from January — another time he was talking about the Russia probe. In those tweets,...

Stormy Daniels, the adult film star who’s locked in an ongoing legal battle with President Donald Trump, is owed unclaimed residuals by SAG-AFTRA. The union’s unclaimed residuals site doesn’t say how much she’s owed but notes that, “If the union is holding unclaimed residuals, it is because we can’t locate you.”

Daniels, however, isn’t that hard to locate – she’s represented by newly famous attorney Michael Avanetti in her lawsuit against the president.

Most of her acting credits have been in adult films, which aren’t covered by SAG-AFTRA contracts, but she’s also worked on several theatrical films and TV shows that are, including two films directed by Judd Apatow – The 40-Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up. Several of her Knocked Up co-stars also are owed unclaimed SAG residuals, including Seth Rogen, Ken Jeong and Iris Apatow, the director’s daughter. Daniels also...

Adult film actor Stormy Daniels has filed new lawsuit lawsuit against President Donald Trump — this time accusing the politician of defamation. In new court documents, Stormy alleges that Trump defamed her when he hinted her story about being threatened by an unknown man in Las Vegas was "fake news" on Twitter. "A sketch years later about a nonexistent man. A total con job, playing the Fake News Media for Fools (but they know it)," he tweeted along with her sketch of the mystery perpetrator. TMZ is also reporting that along with calling her a liar, Trump's tweet also implied that she is falsely accusing someone of a crime — and she has been receiving death threats ever since. On March 6, Stormy filed her first lawsuit against the Potus over the "hush agreement" that could prevent her from telling her side of the story. In 2011, Stormy exclusively told In Touch about an...

Stormy Daniels attorney Michael Avenatti doubled down on his call for a two-hour Donald Trump deposition today on CBS This Morning, calling his motion filed early Wednesday in federal court in California “well founded,” “well thought out” and supported by U.S. Supreme Court precedent.

Avenatti, a ubiquitous TV face in recent weeks, is seeking an expedited trial and limited discovery on behalf of Daniels (whose real name is Stephanie Clifford), a quest that he says will require two-hour depositions from Trump and his private attorney Michael Cohen.

“We want to know the truth about what the president knew, when he knew it, and what he did about it,” Avenatti told CBS This Morning‘s Gayle King. “As it relates to this agreement, we’re going to test the veracity or truthfulness of Mr. Cohen’s, his attorney’s, statements. And we’re confident, Gayle, that when we get to bottom of this,...

A storm rolled into 60 Minutes on Sunday night, by way of David Dennison Donald Trump’s alleged mistress, adult film star Stormy Daniels. The interview, conducted by Anderson Cooper, had been buzzed about for weeks — but did it actually give the president anything new to worry about?

Daniels — whose real name is Stephanie Clifford — is said to have had an affair with Trump in 2006, just months after his third wife Melania gave birth to their son Barron. The porn star detailed the alleged tryst in a 2011 interview with a sister publication of In Touch Weekly that was not made public until January of this year.

Porn star Stormy Daniels, who reportedly had an affair with Donald Trump before he ascended to the U.S. presidency, filed a lawsuit against Trump on Tuesday, saying that Trump and his attorney Michael Cohen “aggressively sought to silence” her when she planned to make her story public in late 2016. According to the suit, Daniels was presented with a “Hush Agreement” referring to Daniels — whose real name is Stephanie Clifford — as “Peggy Peterson” or “Pp” and Trump as “David Dennison” or “Dd.” “Importantly, the Hush Agreement imposed various conditions and obligations not only on Ms. Clifford, but also on...

Stormy Daniels is suing President Trump over a "hush" pact she says they drew up days before he was elected -- but he refused to sign. In the lawsuit, Stormy claims Trump did her dirty by not signing the agreement, which intended to keep her from talking about their alleged 2006 affair, and hurting his presidential campaign. The ex-porn star says she signed on the dotted line, as did Trump's attorney, Michael Cohen. She says they...
