Vice President Kamala Harris’ past condemnations of domestic abuse and sexual assault perpetrators are coming back to haunt her following a report of her now-husband “forcefully slapping” an ex-girlfriend more than a decade ago. Second gentleman Doug Emhoff, a 59-year-old Hollywood lawyer, struck his then-flame, a successful New York attorney, in the face “so hard, she spun around” as the two waited in the valet line following an event at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2012, three anonymous friends of the woman told the Daily Mail.

According to a complaint filed Feb. 9 in federal court, Tom Mosgrove spent Valentine’s Day in 2022 in Santa Clara County jail after his then-wife called the police and reported that he pushed her into a closet and blocked her from leaving.

The Rahimi case oral arguments have been heard by the Supreme Court. It was bumped to the head of the line by the Biden administration. At its core, the case is not about domestic violence. It is about whether fundamental rights, enumerated in the Bill of Rights, can be nullified by a judge in a civil hearing with almost no due process. No jury trial, no right to a lawyer, no criminal conviction. From the Fifth Circuit decision on the case: Perhaps most importantly, the Government’s proffered interpretation lacks any true limiting principle. Under the Government’s reading, Congress could remove...

Rep. Lauren Boebert's son called 911 in December to report that his father, Jayson Boebert, had gotten physical with him and was "throwing" him around the house and that he didn't know why.

“In 2021 I could see him starting to spiral. Then in 2022, he was completely spiraled off the deep end.
