Republicans are continuing to delete mention of the FBI informant on which they based their impeachment investigation.

Ian Sams, White House spokesman for oversight and investigations, noticed that 'evidence" listed on the House Republican Oversight and Reform Committee's Biden impeachment website is disappearing.

A Republican governor mocked his colleagues Thursday for lashing out at electric vehicles — and then getting behind the wheels of them every weekend.

Politico hosted a Governor's Summit in which it interviewed, among others, Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA).

Donald Trump indicated that he intends to appeal the judgment issued by Judge Arthur Engoron in the New York fraud trial, but that doesn't mean he shouldn't fork over the cash he owes now, the state's attorney general said in a court filing Thursday.

Trump has asked for a "stay" in paying the $355 million damages while he appeals. At the same time, he also asked that addresses be changed to Florida for some of the Trump businesses after the ruling also banned him from doing business in New York for three years.

Campaign finance reports were published online this week, revealing some of the contributions to campaigns and political action committees.

In one case, an uber-donor to Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s PAC gave an in-kind gift that was unique from most: $105,350 worth of Alpaca shawls and shipping.

A Republican lawmaker's defense of former President Donald Trump's mass deportation proposal boasts that the number of immigrants who would be "rounded up" equals the population of several U.S. States.

Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) appeared Wednesday on the Fox Business Network to defend Trump and push back on host Stuart Varney's skepticism that ICE agents, along with the National Guard and federal, state and local law enforcement agencies, could deport as many as 9 million migrants.

Republicans are slamming Speaker Mike Johnson for what they say was an overly religious sermon delivered at a weekend GOP retreat, according to a new report.

Johnson (R-LA) was supposed to speak to Republican lawmakers at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Miami about holding onto the party’s House majority, but sources told Politico the topic was less tactics and more tenets.

Republican Rep. Pat Fallon (TX) just made a very public flip when it comes to Joe Biden's "impeachment inquiry."

Political reporter Aaron Rupar captured Fallon's 2023 comments — that directly contradict a new statement he made Wednesday on Fox Business.

The Republican Party’s last hope of putting out its existential "dumpster fire" is if Colorado Rep. Lauren Boebert’s carpetbagger campaign in a new district fails, according to a columnist in her state.

Colorado Sun writer Mike Littwin painted Boebert — the MAGA firebrand fleeing her congressional district in hopes of winning among a more right-wing base — as the epitome of the problems plaguing the state’s GOP.

Lev Parnas, who worked with Rudy Giuliani to build a Joe Biden conspiracy theory, claimed that the FBI knew in 2019 that their key informant was a liar.

Taking to social media on Monday night, Parnas responded to former New York Assistant Attorney General Tristan Snell, who called for an investigation into the communications top Republicans had with former FBI informant Alexander Smirnov, who is now accused of lying about a Biden bribery scheme.

When speaking before the Judiciary Committee investigating President Joe Biden and his son Hunter, former United States Attorney Scott W. Brady promised he'd fact-checked the claims of the GOP's star witness — a man arrested last week and accused of lying to the FBI.

Tuesday's Politico Playbook claimed that the allegations by FBI informant Alexander Smirnov were never confirmed — but, as national security expert Marcy Wheeler pointed out, Brady said the opposite under oath.

The Republicans' star witness in the probe of a Ukrainian bribery scheme they claim involved President Joe Biden has been accused of lying to the FBI — and the investigators are rushing to delete any reference to him in their documents.

Huffington Post reporter Arthur Delaney noticed that GOP members in the House Oversight and Reform and Judiciary Committees killed a full paragraph about informant Alexander Smirnov when writing a letter to former State Department official Amos Hochstein. Chairmen Jim Jordan (R-OH) and James Comer (R-KY) killed the paragraph, according to a Democratic House aide, though Huffington Post reviewed an earlier version of the document in which it was included.
