CNN panel howls with laughter while mocking Trump's waist size and finances: 'What just happened?'
CNN political contributor Paul Begala’s jokes about former President Trump had network anchor Kate Bolduan and guest S.E. Cupp in laughing fits Monday.
On “CNN News Central,” Begala first got them going by saying, “Biden only has to do seven things to win. And I memorized them. They’re in alphabetical order, Kate: Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack.”
The line got the women laughing, as they had expected a detailed list and “totally fell for” Begala’s set up.
Begala then talked about how Biden’s campaign is doing far better in fundraising than Trump’s, explaining the difference with a reference to the song “Mo’ Money, Mo’ Problems” by The Notorious B.I.G., aka Biggie Smalls.

“The Biden campaign is raising extraordinary amounts of money. The Democratic Party, by the way, raised $120 million last year. The Republicans only raised $82 [million]. Democrats have $21 million cash on hand. Republicans only have…they only have eight. This is where, and I hate to do this, Kate, because I know you love him, this is where Biggie was wrong. It’s no money, mo’ problems.” Begala said.
Cupp and Bolduan began laughing at the comment and could not stop as Begala continued.

“First off, the notion of Donald Trump tightening his belt. What’s he going to go down to? About a 64 triple XL? That’s not a belt you want to tighten too much. And it’s also terrible news for the porn star community,” Begala added.
“I don’t know what to do!” Bolduan remarked as she and Cupp kept laughing. “I come here to help inform America. I am just getting attacked and don’t know what to do with my face half the time!”
“What just happened?” Cupp asked.

“What happened is we got it.” Bolduan said. “We got Paul Begala’s seven plans for taking me down, it’s attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack. And we all love you, Paul.”
“We love you, Paul,” Cupp said at the same time. “We didn’t plan that. We love Paul.”
“I’m ending it. I’m just going to end it,” Bolduan finally declared as the laughter started to die down, throwing to the next anchor, Sara Sidner, who joined in joking and laughing about Biggie Smalls.
Bolduan was reduced to begging, “Sara, please take it.”

In February, the Biden campaign stated that it raised more than $42 million in January with $130 million in cash-on-hand across all of its joint-fundraising committees — a figure the president’s re-election team is touting as “the highest total amassed by any Democratic candidate in history” at this point in the election cycle.
Those numbers compare to just $30 million cash-on-hand reported by the Trump campaign at the end of January, after all the former president’s fundraising entities reported bringing in nearly $2.5 million less than Nikki Haley’s campaign, despite his vast polling advantage.

“It’s been a tough couple of weeks if you are Donald Trump and also like money,” Biden campaign official Ammar Moussa told Fox News Digital. “The RNC had its worst fundraising year in decades, is hemorrhaging cash, and now Trump enters the general election with the weakest operation in recent history.”

DALLAS – A Dallas seafood wholesaler has been ordered to pay a $250,000 fine after admitting it falsely labeled the country of origin of salmon, federal prosecutors announced on Friday.
Seafood Supply Co. fined
What we know:
Seafood Supply Co. was sentenced in federal court after pleading guilty in March to two counts of violating the Lacey Act, a federal law that prohibits trafficking in falsely labeled fish, wildlife and plants.
According to court records, the company falsely identified Chilean salmon as originating from Scotland or other European countries between January 2020 and February 2022. Prosecutors said the mislabeling allowed the company to market less expensive Chilean salmon as higher-value European product.
Understanding the Lacey Act
Dig deeper:
The Lacey Act requires accurate labeling of imported fish and other wildlife products.
Federal officials say the law helps protect consumers and ensures fair competition in the marketplace by preventing companies from misrepresenting the origin of seafood products.
What’s next:
The investigation was conducted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Office of Law Enforcement as part of Operation Upstream Diligence, a federal initiative targeting seafood fraud and illegal trade.
The case was prosecuted by the Justice Department’s Environmental Crimes Section with assistance from the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Texas.
