Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) received an embarrassing fact-check during a local congressional debate Monday night.

Boebert faced off against Democratic challenger Eileen Laubacher in a debate ahead of the midterm election for the Colorado 4th Congressional District seat. During the event, Boebert was asked about her support for President Donald Trump's decision to attack Iran, and let slip one comment that the moderator simply couldn't ignore.

"We do not have boots on the ground. I do agree that this is expensive and I hear from Republicans that they want this to come to an end," Boebert said. ...

President Donald Trump lashed out at a protester who disrupted his rally in Youngstown, Ohio, on Monday, calling the person a "paid protester" and "scum."

Trump traveled to Ohio to stump for Republicans such as Sen. John Husted (R-OH) and gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy. Embattled GOP lawmaker Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) was also spotted at the event, and Trump traveled to the site with former NFL coach John Gruden and influencer Jake Paul.

"He's a paid protester. They're all paid!" Trump said. "They get paid by the lefties in order to destroy our country. They're scum!" ...

MS NOW's Alicia Menendez offered a brutal supercut of Latino voters in Texas, gearing up to punish President Donald Trump at the ballot box.

The showcase came during a discussion with Victor Martinez, owner of LA MEGA 101.7, about similar levels of discontent unfolding in Pennsylvania.

"Here in the Lehigh Valley, it's 'the economy, stupid,' right?" said Martinez. The key takeaway, he said, is that "people are upset" because "Gas prices are around $4.50 here ... electric bill has doubled, grocery prices have doubled." Trump got Latinos on his side two years ago because they thought he'd fight inflation, Martinez said, and yet "things have gotten worse."...

The chances that President Donald Trump authorizes a significant military escalation in the Middle East — and soon — are “relatively high,” Fox News’ Trey Yingst said Monday as the White House weighs its response to a recent strike on a major U.S. ally.

On Saturday, Yemen’s Houthi militants carried out a deadly attack on Saudi Arabia, striking the King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh and killing at least 12 people and injuring more than 300. Trump told reporters he was considering joining Saudi Arabia in retaliating against the Houthis, and despite skepticism from one expert, Yingst said he expected Trump to follow through.

“The question now is how Saudi Arabia will respond and if the United States could be involved,” Yingst said, reporting from Tel Aviv, Israel. “The chances [that the United States gets involved militarily] are relatively high just given recent history. The Saudis are asking for support, and that support is going to come in a variety of different ways: one has to do with intelligence, and the other, military action.”...

A clinical and forensic psychologist breaking down President Donald Trump’s weekend rally in Tennessee flagged a moment he called “a really wild thing to watch”: Trump told the crowd he could say the stupidest things and they’d clap, and they did.

Dr. John Paul Garrison, known online as “Dr. G” to more than half a million YouTube subscribers, broke down the Clarksville event in a new video. Trump appeared Saturday at the F&M Bank Arena to campaign for Tennessee Republicans, including Sen. Marsha Blackburn, the GOP nominee for governor, ahead of the Nov. 3 midterms.

“When you stand up here, it’s just like the love. I could say the stupidest things and you clap,” Trump told the audience, which cheered. “You know, I love you so. That’s true.”...

In a bid to navigate the “biggest single mistake” of President Donald Trump’s two terms in office, the president has sparked a new “complete catastrophe,” a panel of journalists argued Monday on MS NOW.

“This war with Iran is going to prove to be the biggest single mistake of Donald Trump's two terms in office,” said David Rohde, MS NOW senior national security reporter. “The Saudi Arabian government could fall there — it's a disaster for this country and it's extraordinary what's happening, just the stakes here every day.”

A cascade of attacks has erupted across the Middle East in recent days amid Trump’s deeply unpopular war against Iran, a conflict that has kept U.S. fuel prices elevated. However, Trump has increasingly blamed the Russo-Ukrainian war for elevated fuel prices....

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) suggested over the weekend that a Trump administration official may have quietly contacted a federal appeals judge to stall a contempt inquiry, and the legal analyst interviewing him declared that if so, “people are going to jail.”

In a clip flagged by political video aggregator Acyn Torabi from the Legal AF podcast, Whitehouse laid out a hypothetical involving D.C. Circuit Judge Neomi Rao, a Trump appointee.

“If some MAGA official communicated to Judge Rao or her chambers and that resulted in the administrative stay that held the door open and kept the facts from the Senate Judiciary Committee for his confirmation and stalled investigation into misconduct by the DOJ,” Whitehouse began, “ask any judge how big a deal that is.”...

President Donald Trump cut off reporters and walked away after they repeatedly demanded evidence for his claim of widespread mail-in voting fraud in California.

Trump spoke to reporters outside the White House on Monday as he prepared to board Marine One for campaign events.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) bragged about a road salt win at a Maine Senate debate, and her challenger's comeback had observers cheering.

On Tuesday, Collins faced Democratic challenger Troy Jackson in a debate weeks before the midterms. Asked what she would do about President Donald Trump's tariffs on Canada, Collins pointed to a specific victory.

"I was successful at getting road salt removed from the tariff list," Collins said. Jackson responded by pouncing on the answer....
