They were informed multiple times over multiple days via multiple incidents that they could not be in any of the Capitol buildings without a credentialed escort. Earlier on June 16th, they had been escorted out of the Capitol Rotunda and told the rules. Their intent to ignore the law in order to harass GOP members isn’t in doubt. It’s also untrue that they were invited into the building on June 16th,...

Prominent elected Democrats are meeting with political donors, courting national attention by attacking leading Republicans and positioning themselves for a run for the White House if President Joe Biden steps aside.

The blue state governor...

Abdul-Jabbar wrote that Griner's supporters should focus their efforts on putting pressure on Russia rather than the U.S., arguing pressuring American officials might postpone Griner's release while the government "deals with Russia's outrageous demands." He added: "Everyone supporting Brittney Griner has their hearts in the right place. Good people, one and all. But heart alone isn't effective in bringing about her release, and by publicly pressuring the U.S. government, we may be inadvertently delaying her release."

SOMERSET, MA — After Biden seemed to announce he has cancer during a speech today, the White House quickly issued a retraction, clarifying that Biden only said that because of his dementia.

Gun control was yet again a key focus on Capitol Hill Wednesday when the Senate Judiciary Committee debated mass shootings and the House Judiciary marked up an assault weapons ban for the first time in two decades. The Democratic-controlled House panel debated legislation that would ban certain assault-style rifles like the ones used in a recent spate of mass shootings while their Republican colleagues argued doing so would make communities less safe by leaving law-abiding citizens unarmed in dangerous situations. The House Judiciary is also debating a second bill that would lift immunity for gun manufacturers, allowing them to be...

Del. Dan Cox might have won the GOP nomination in the Maryland governor's race, but come November he will not have the support of the man he hopes to succeed. Cox, a far-right lawmaker endorsed by former President Donald Trump, prevailed in Tuesday's primary over Kelly Schulz, a fellow Republican and former Maryland Commerce Secretary who had the backing of outgoing Gov. Larry Hogan. The result marks the end of a contentious campaign that the Associated Press described as a clash over the fate of the Republican Party, pitting two distinctly different factions of the GOP against one another. But...
