Senate investigating 1998 allegations of misconduct of adult Brett Kavanaugh -- claiming he slammed woman against bar

If Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis will be term limited out of his current role at the end of 2026, unless he manages to turn around his fortunes in the presidential race and moves to the White House before that. And there's one figure who appears ready to run to succeed him, reported NBC News on Monday: far-right Congressman Matt Gaetz.

The prominent Freedom Caucus member and Trump ally fueled the speculation while speaking to NBC about a Sunday event he attended celebrating Miami Republican state Rep. Danny Perez, who will be designated state House Speaker.

Donald Trump is urging Republicans to remove President Joe Biden from office by invoking the 25th Amendment, which in part details the process for removing and replacing a sitting U.S. President by his own Vice President and his own Cabinet, not Congress.

The 25th Amendment also allows for a sitting U.S. President to temporarily remove himself or herself from the responsibilities of office and officially had that responsibility to their Vice President, say, if the President were to undergo surgery and be under anesthesia, or in other cases where they decide they should not hold power for a limited time.

An Oct. 30 hearing has been set to decide if the 14th Amendment can be used to keep Donald Trump off the ballot in Colorado.

A group of voters represented by the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) called for Trump to be kept off the ballot, citing a provision in the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution that bars insurrectionists from serving.
