Dan Bongino, President Donald Trump's former deputy director of the FBI, admitted there was a "good chance" that Republicans would lose both the House and the Senate in the midterm elections.

The former government official made the prediction during his Thursday podcast.

Brandon Herrera, the Second Amendment advocate running against a GOP lawmaker facing affair allegations, called to "bring back smoking on airplanes."

During a Thursday interview, MAGA influencer Benny Johnson noted that Herrera could find himself with a seat on the Oversight Committee if he defeats Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) amid the affair scandal. The interview came as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was testifying to the Oversight Committee about sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

A former Donald Trump appointee to the State Department expressed frustration over the Republican-controlled House Oversight Committee forcing Hillary Clinton to give a deposition on her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein that could end up backfiring on the president.

Sitting on panel on MS NOW’s “Morning Joe,“ Republican Matthew Bartlett became animated when co-host Jonathan Lemire asked, “So talk to us about how you see today going and indeed weigh in on that notion here, that the Republicans may be inadvertently setting a trap in some ways for President Trump.”

The Department of Justice failed to take down more than a dozen problematic images released from the Jeffrey Epstein files, including nude photos and identifying details from passports and drivers licenses.

CNN worked with Israeli software firm Visual Layer to analyze tens of thousands of photos released by the DOJ and found more than 100 explicit photos that show what appears to be naked teenagers and other images that should have been redacted, and some of those lingered online for weeks.

The hosts of the pro-MAGA network Real America's Voice warned that the End Times could be on the horizon because of a 2014 New York Times opinion piece describing pedophilia as a "disorder."

"Elon Musk is just one of many now out there slamming the Times, the New York Times, for an op-ed they published, look at this," co-host David Brody began. "It framed pedophilia as a psychological disorder rather than a crime."

President Donald Trump's Department of Homeland Security has made a guarantee to state elections officials that Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers will not be stationed at polling places in November — an election intimidation move that was highly sought by the far-right elements of the MAGA camp.

But MS NOW pundit Michael Steele, the former chairman of the Republican National Committee and frequent Trump critic, does not buy this promise whatsoever.

The husband of Rep. Tony Gonzalez's late aide, who took her own life after being involved in an affair with the Congressman, spoke out on Wednesday during an interview on CNN.

Adrian Aviles, the widower of Regina Santos-Aviles, spoke to CNN's Erin Burnett about the evidence he still has against Gonzalez. The lawmaker has faced growing calls to resign after text messages surfaced between himself and Santos-Aviles that appear to show him coercing her into a sexual relationship.
