Will he stay or will he go? Not even Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) can answer that question regarding a possible run for re-election in 2024. Romney told the Hill a second term is not really at the forefront of his current thinking. “I’m going to cross that bridge down the road. I haven’t given a lot of attention yet,” he said following his recent support for Ketanji Brown Jackson, the first Black woman to be elevated to the Supreme Court. As Breitbart News reported, Romney won gushing praise from President Joe Biden for standing with him behind Jackson’s confirmation. Romney...

President Biden on Friday singled out the three Republican senators who voted to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court, praising them for setting aside partisanship in what has become a divisive process. “Not withstanding the harassment and attacks in the hearings, I always believed that a bipartisan vote was possible,” Biden said at an event with Jackson to celebrate her confirmation. “And I hope I don’t get them in trouble, and I mean it sincerely, but I want to thank three Republicans who voted for Judge Jackson.”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday said that he's going to do everything in his power to help fellow GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski win reelection this November. "It's important for Lisa to be reelected. She's one of the few, sort of moderates in the middle of the Senate," the top Republican said during an interview with Axios' Jonathan Swan. McConnell praised Murkowski, who's served in the Senate for 20 years, as "a key player in advancing bipartisan legislation." "We're going to do everything we can to make sure she's successful," he said.

Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Mitt Romney Monday said they will vote for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to be confirmed to the Supreme Court, bringing the total expected GGOP votes for Jackson's confirmation up to three. "After reviewing Judge Jackson’s record and testimony, I have concluded that she is a well-qualified jurist and a person of honor," Romney, R-Utah, said. "While I do not expect to agree with every decision she may make on the Court, I believe that she more than meets the standard of excellence and integrity."

Senator Mitt Romney (R-UT) said he hasn't decided how he will vote on Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's nomination to the Supreme Court and that he's doing a "deeper dive" than the last time he assessed her. Romney voted against Jackson's appointment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia in 2021 when she was nominated by President Joe Biden. However, the senator told CNN's Kasie Hunt in a clip aired on Monday that he hadn't decided how he'd cast his vote this time. If she's confirmed by the Senate, Jackson will become the first Black woman ever...

Romney voted against lifting the mask and vaccine mandates in the federal Head Start program during a HELP Committee hearing on the PREVENT Pandemics Act.

Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, harshly condemned former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, D-Hawaii, for comments she made in recent days about U.S. biological laboratories in Ukraine, Business Insider reported Monday. "Tulsi Gabbard is parroting false Russian propaganda," Romney tweeted. "Her treasonous lies may well cost lives." Russia has spread a baseless claim the U.S. is funding the development of bioweapons in labs in Ukraine, a move which the U.S. warned could indicate that Moscow is planning to use chemical weapons against Ukraine, according to Business Insider. In response to Romney's comments, Gabbard on Monday wrote on Twitter: "You have called me a...

With Democrats on the ropes and Republicans divided, Mitt Romney should consider running for president. The year 2022 is shaping up to be a good year for the electoral prospects of the loyal opposition. Two years after losing the presidency — and then watching helplessly as Donald Trump’s petulance poisoned the Republican effort to win in Georgia and keep control of the Senate — the GOP is suddenly poised for a comeback in Congress.

Nearly 10 years ago, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney scolded his future opponent for telling Russian President Dmitry Medvedev he'd have more "flexibility" toward the country after his election. "This is to Russia, this is, without question, our number one geopolitical foe," he told CNN's Wolf Blitzer on March 26, 2012. "They fight every cause for the world’s worst actors. The idea that [President Barack Obama] has some more flexibility in mind for Russia is very, very troubling, indeed." Pressed by Blitzer, Romney then said the "greatest threat" America faced was a nuclear-armed Iran. But the perceived damage was done.

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Rep. Ted Lieu (D-CA) stated that the recent actions by Russia’s Vladimir Putin are further confirmation that Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) “was right” he said that Russia was America’s top geopolitical foe when he was running for president back in 2012, remarks that were criticized by then-Vice President Joe Biden. While discussing Russia ordering troops into areas of Ukraine that they recognized as independent and Russia possibly moving more troops into the country, Lieu said, “[T]his action by Putin further confirms that Mitt Romney was right when he called Russia the ‘number one...
