Joe Biden

Gov. Ron DeSantis and his office are now being sued by a government accountability group for failing to produce specific documents related to the state flying nearly 50 migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., last month.

It’s the latest court action that has resulted since the state moved the mostly Venezuelan group of migrants from San Antonio, Texas, to Massachusetts on Sept. 14, although they never actually set foot in Florida.

All hope pointed to Herschel Walker, a football legend who has the vocal backing of former President Donald Trump and handily won his primary with 68% of the vote.

President Vladimir Putin threatened on Monday more "severe" attacks against Ukraine after Russian missiles rained down on the capital Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities in what Washington branded "utter brutality".

The biggest wave of strikes across Ukraine in months killed at least 11 and wounded more than 80 in retaliation for an explosion this weekend that damaged a key bridge linking Russia to the Moscow-annexed Crimean peninsula.

As election day approaches, hopeful Republicans are making plans for what they'll do if they gain power. According to MSNBC's Steve Benen, they're not interested in governing. "Rather, GOP leaders are likely to focus on gridlock, impeachment crusades, and extensive hearings into assorted conspiracy theories."

Citing a report from the Washington Times that include comments from GOP Senate candidate Blake Masters who said that he's prepared to shut down the government to force President Biden to reverse course on his border policies.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) recently attacked President Joe Biden for supporting developing wind power on the grounds that it is not always windy outside.

In a video clip flagged by @PatriotTakes, the Georgia congresswoman accused Biden of not doing enough to "prop up American oil and gas," and instead putting his support in a green energy agenda.

An Army investigation criticized Maj. Gen. Patrick Donahoe for using Twitter to defend female soldiers after Fox News host Tucker Carlson said they were weakening the military.

The investigation’s outcome has at least one Army general worried that “The Army has gone full MAGA,” a reference to former President Donald Trump’s campaign slogan, Make America Great Again.

Republican U.S. Senate candidate Herschel Walker suggested that his son, Christian, was a liar after he accused his dad of "violence" against their family.

Following allegations that Walker paid for an abortion, his son blasted him on social media.

Former Republican Tim Miller was once a GOP strategist, but these days, the Never Trump conservative is a scathing critic of former President Donald Trump, the MAGA movement and Trump’s allies — including Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas. Miller recently got into an argument with Cruz, who described him as a “hack”; in an article published by The Bulwark on October 10, Miller lays out an abundance of reasons why he considers Cruz the epitome of a “hack” and exemplifies so much that is wrong with the Republican Party in 2022.

The argument occurred at an event at a MAGA-themed restaurant in Queen Creek, Arizona, where Cruz was campaigning for two far-right “Stop the Steal” Republicans: gubernatorial nominee Kari Lake and Blake Masters, who is trying to unseat centrist Democratic incumbent Sen. Mark Kelly. Cruz grew testy when Miller brought up the Big Lie — the false claim that the 2020 presidential election was stolen from Trump — and the Texas senator tried to change the subject.

Barack Obama is a very competitive man, if you haven’t noticed. He grew up a bi-racial child in a broken home, his high school basketball team won the state championship his senior year, was the first black leader of the Harvard Law Review, State, then US senator in his adopted Illinois, and was the fifth youngest person elected President of the United States. President Obama was so competitive that he resisted golfing with Speaker of the House John Boehner for bonding and legislative cajoling because the Ohioan was a better player. Yet, a decade ago, on October 3, 2012 during his reelection campaign, Obama got his clock cleaned by former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in their first debate in Denver, Colorado

This is unusually common when the incumbent president faces off with the challenger across the debate stage. After the famous Kennedy/Nixon debates of 1960, there wasn’t another debate until 1976. That October, President Gerald Ford infamously remarked “there is no Soviet domination of Eastern Europe and there never will be under a Ford Administration.” Um yes sir, there has been for three decades now. Four years later against Ronald Reagan, Jimmy Carter told the nation he discussed nuclear weapons with his thirteen-year-old daughter Amy. Even Ronald Reagan, always on his mark as a former actor, came out sluggish in his 1984 debate with Walter Mondale.

During an appearance on CNN's "State of the Union," host Jake Tapper both confronted and lectured Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) over his plan to head to Arizona this week to support the gubernatorial bid of 2020 election denier Kari Lake.

Youngkin, who likes to present himself as a moderate while pushing far-right policies, ducked condemning Lake for her conspiratorial rhetoric despite the fact that he parts ways with her over the legitimacy of Joe Biden's election over Donald Trump in 2020.

Aside from outrightly rejecting the reality that President Joe Biden won, which has almost certainly undermined public trust in secure elections, having a litany of 2020 deniers up and down the ballot could have big implications for future races.

Michigan is not alone in having many GOP candidates running for office (see also Arizona, Nevada and Pennsylvania). FiveThirtyEight reports that 60% of Americans will have an election denier on the ballot this year. And the Washington Post found that the majority of GOP nominees for the House, Senate and key statewide offices have denied or questioned the outcome of the 2020 presidential election.
