    CNN’s Manu Raju reported over the weekend from Appomattox, Virginia on the effort inside the House GOP to oust one of its own, Rep. Bob Good (R-VA), who is the chairman of the House Freedom Caucus. Raju both aired his report on CNN’s Inside Politics Sunday and published an article on CNN.com detailing the various House Republicans openly campaigning in support of Good’s GOP primary opponent, state Sen. John McGuire. Raju noted that campaigning openly against a House colleague is “a tactic long viewed as a serious breach of protocol but one that underscores the bad blood within the House...

  • Robert Kennedy Jr. Campaign Fires Back at Nevada SOS, DNC After 15,000 Signatures Invalidated, Threatens Lawsuit

    As previously reported, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an Independent presidential candidate, faces a setback in Nevada despite collecting over 15,000 signatures, thus surpassing the required amount for ballot access. The issue arises from the failure to list a running mate on the petition, as mandated by law and indicated in Nevada's guidelines for presidential candidates. This oversight necessitates restarting the signature-gathering process after Kennedy announces his pick for vice president, scheduled to be revealed on Tuesday. On Monday, the Kennedy campaign fired back alleging the Nevada Secretary of State was conspiring with the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to prevent his...

    California's primary was held a week ago today. In the Senate race only 77% of the votes have been counted as of 6:00 p.m. EST.

    Katie Porter has claimed that California's Senate primary race was "rigged" after she lost a vote on Wednesday. Porter, a progressive Democrat, came third in the non-partisan primary, losing out to Adam Schiff, a centrist Democrat who has been vocal in his support for Israel. In response to the results, she blamed billionaires for spending money on attack adverts against her. Newsweek contacted representatives for Porter by X to comment on this story. The Senate seat has become available after Dianne Feinstein, the longest-serving woman in the U.S. Senate, died in September 2023. Porter, who has represented Orange County, California,...

    Mark Cuban said Monday he recently cast his ballot in the Texas Republican primary for former President Donald Trump’s last remaining opponent, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley.

The 65-year-old minority Dallas Mavericks owner said he voted for Nikki Haley in the Texas Republican primary and will be backing Biden in the general election if he faces off against Trump, having once admitted he too harbored ambitions...

Trump declared his swift victory at his Election Day party held on the South Carolina State Fairgrounds in Columbia, saying with a smirk: 'This was a little sooner than we anticipated.' Trump's victory builds on the surging momentum he has built...
