Marjorie Taylor Greene

During an appearance on MSNBC Wednesday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said that Marjorie Taylor Greene is the one who is currently running the Republican Party.

"House Republicans are engaged in another partisan, political stunt," Jeffries said in regards to the GOP effort to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. "They apparently have been ordered to do so by Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene."

Republican hardliners have come up with new ways to make life miserable for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA).

According to NBC News, establishment-bucking Republicans are now tanking procedural votes on their own party's legislation, which is forcing Johnson to use a workaround that bypasses their blockade.

U.S. Rep. Rob Menendez (D-NJ) blasted his GOP colleagues for their unwavering devotion to Donald Trump while ignoring their critical national security oversight responsibilities during the House Republicans’ Homeland Security Committee’s hearing on impeaching DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas on Tuesday.

“We have held zero – I repeat – zero full committee hearings dedicated to emergency preparedness, cyber threat, infrastructure protection, transportation security, Department of Homeland Security management or information sharing and intelligence efforts,” Menendez the son of Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ) declared.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) expressed frustration at an impeachment hearing for Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas because the process was not moving quickly enough.

Greene became angry after Democratic committee members complained about a lack of impeachment evidence. The lawmaker told the story of one of her constituents, who she said "was raped and strangled to death by an illegal MS-13 gang member who was actually apprehended at the border."

Realizing that she was fighting an uphill battle for reelection in Colorado's 3rd Congressional District, far-right Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) moved to an area that's even more conservative: Colorado's 4th Congressional District, where she is hoping to take over the seat presently held by resigning GOP Rep. Ken Buck in 2024.

But Boebert is finding that the 4th is also a heavy lift. In a recent straw poll among Republican primary candidates in that race, Boebert came in fifth.

House Homeland Security Committee Ranking Member Bennie Thompson (D-MS) called out Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) for fundraising off of the impeachment of DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.

At a hearing to consider Mayorkas' impeachment on Tuesday, Thompson accused Republicans of a political stunt.

Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) was cornered on CNN Monday by anchor Boris Sanchez about whether he will support the Senate border reform compromise deal, as the lawmaker refused to rule out voting for it but continually suggested he was skeptical.

The deal, which has been endorsed by President Joe Biden and was brokered with bipartisan support, hasn't been released publicly in its entirety, but appears to include a number of key concessions to Republicans, including a requirement to restrict border entry when migration levels reach a certain threshold.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (I-AZ) has spent almost $210,000 on private charter flights for herself and her staff using taxpayer cash, according to a report from The Daily Beast.

"Given that senators have limited annual budgets to fund their operations, Sinema’s use of private flights also raises questions about why she is prioritizing that expense over other essential functions of her office," writes the The Beast's Sam Brodey.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) suggested two Navy SEALs were to blame after they were lost at sea during a night raid on a ship allegedly carrying Iranian weapons.

According to the Associated Press, Navy Special Warfare Operator 2nd Class Nathan Gage Ingram slipped and fell while boarding the combatant vessel. A second SEAL, Navy Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Christopher J. Chambers, died after jumping to save Ingram.

Mitch McConnell and Mike Johnson are each facing a test of their leadership in the immigration showdown.

A bipartisan group of senators are expected to soon deliver text of a bill that would tie stricter border policies to Ukraine aid, and Senate minority leader McConnell must try to keep his 49 members on board while the House speaker struggles to keep Donald Trump's right-wing allies from killing the deal, reported Politico.

Donald Trump may have to sell off assets if his fines in the New York fraud trial are over $200 million.

Speaking to MSNBC on Sunday, New York Times reporter Susanne Craig explained that they were working to sift through what kind of "cash on hand" Trump has to give in fines for crimes.

A retired Republican judge determined there is "absolutely damning" evidence that should keep Donald Trump off the ballot in the state of Illinois.

Acting as a hearing officer, Clark Erickson held a hearing on Friday to consider whether Trump should be removed from the ballot because he participated in an insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021.
