Dan Abrams has announced he will be leaving his primetime show Dan Abrams Live on NewsNation in February 2025. During a December 2024 broadcast, Abrams shared the news with viewers, citing the challenges of balancing his various responsibilities.
Over the years, he has built an impressive portfolio, working as ABC News chief legal analyst, hosting the Reelz show On Patrol Live, and running a daily SiriusXM radio show. He also manages a growing digital media empire that includes Mediaite and the Law & Crime Network.
Explaining his decision, Abrams shared, 'Three years after this really unexpected opportunity, I've reached the point where it's impossible to keep devoting the time needed for this show while also running and growing my other businesses.' While he acknowledged how much he has enjoyed his time hosting the nightly program, Abrams admitted that the demands of his other ventures have grown too significant to ignore. Despite stepping down as host, Abrams assured viewers that he will remain part of NewsNation in a contributor role, with further details expected to follow in February 2025.
Since joining NewsNation in 2021, Abrams has played a crucial role in shaping the network's identity as a politically neutral platform. His show used to air at 8 p.m. before it was moved to the 9 p.m. slot to accommodate Chris Cuomo. NewsNation has yet to announce who will take over the critical 9 p.m. hour. Until his departure in February, Abrams will continue hosting the program.

Trump directs DOJ, White House counsel to investigate Biden's mental state in office
President Donald Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate whether former President Joe Biden's administration sought to conspire to cover up his mental state while in office, prompting a response from Biden. "Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency," Biden said in a statement. "I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didn't is ridiculous and false." The move by the White House represents a significant escalation from the White House, as it is a directive to the Justice Department to formally investigate. It goes beyond the review into Biden's last-minute pardons before leaving office. Biden responded to Trump's memo to Bondi and the Department of Justice, calling an investigation "nothing more than a mere distraction" and defending his decision-making ability. In a statement he says any suggestion he was not in control is "ridiculous and false." "This is nothing more than a distraction by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans who are working to push disastrous legislation that would cut essential programs like Medicaid and raise costs on American families, all to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and big corporations," Biden said in a statement sent to ABC News. The president directed the U.S.'s top law enforcement official, in coordination with his White House counsel, to investigate "the circumstances surrounding Biden's supposed execution of numerous executive actions during his final years in office," according to a statement from the White House.

Jeremy Piven credits family support helped fuel comedic career
(NewsNation) — Actor and comedian Jeremy Piven has been on the road with his stand-up comedy tour, but this week he's bringing the laughs back to Chicago, where it all began. The three-time Emmy Award winner is set to film his comedy special this Friday at The Vic Theatre, with two shows at 7:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. He told 'Morning in America' that choosing Chicago was a no-brainer. 'This is my favorite place in the world,' Piven said. 'I knew I wanted to shoot my special here because I'm home.' Forensic video expert to testify in Diddy trial Piven recently buried his mother, Joyce Piven, in Chicago, whom he credits as a foundational part of his life and career. She helped shape his career with one rule: 'You can say whatever you want as long as it's funny.' 'That was very empowering because you felt like you had something to say,' Piven said. I've been improvising since I was a kid and trying to get my own lines in whatever I was filming … every once in a while I'd slip in an improv and it would make it into maybe a catch phrase like 'Let's hug it out —–.'' Piven also spoke about the raw challenge of doing stand-up. 'To do stand-up, you have to be willing to walk through public humiliation, and people don't want to be humiliated,' he said. But being from Chicago, I don't think people in this community realize how important they are because they support creative types. So, they go out and watch someone at a 99-seat black box or the Goodman or the Pitman Theatre so that we get reps, so that by the time we go out there on a national stage, we're ready because the community has supported us.' Blake Lively withdraws some claims against Justin Baldoni In addition to his comedy, Piven recently starred in 'The Performance,' a film he calls the best work of his life. Directed by his sister and based on a short story given to him by his late mother, the film explores a Jewish tap dancer who is recruited to perform a one-night engagement in Berlin in the 1930s. 'It's just incredible work that I knew if I could pull it off, which we did by the way, then it'll be the best work of my life,' he said. 'My sister did a brilliant job. It'll be out this year, and it's a tribute to my mom.' As for the comedy special, Piven hopes audiences leave with more than just laughter and walk away with a sense of who he is.

Cuomo: Trump's ‘big, beautiful bill' may blow up
(NewsNation) — NewsNation's Chris Cuomo says there is a war between members of the GOP and President Donald Trump over his budget bill, and that the U.S. could be headed for a big economic downturn if problems with it are not worked out. Cuomo argues Trump and others cannot say anything in return to Elon Musk after he called the bill a 'disgusting abomination' because his money matters to them. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
