Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) is among the many conservatives who denied the reports that a 10-year-old was raped and was forced to seek an abortion in another state.

Jordan tweeted about the story calling it: "Another lie. Anyone surprised?" It quoted a story about Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost's office, which also said that they found no evidence to support the rape charge.

Republican Pennsylvania candidate Mehmet Oz has drawn criticism for being a rich New Jersey resident attempting to buy a seat in the U.S. Senate for a state where he couldn't even spell the street where he "lived" correctly in his candidate filing paperwork.

According to the Daily Beast, however, Oz is now being accused of using a campaign finance loophole to essentially funnel money to his campaign.

The co-hosts of "The View" may come from different political persuasions but there's one thing they agree on and that's the Republican Party has gone far outside the scope of the rights and freedoms of individuals with their attempt to ban abortions.

Among those joining the show as guest co-hosts were Chelsea Clinton and former Donald Trump White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin.

Former President Donald Trump's behavior was no secret when he took office. His attitude toward women and treatment of staff was also well-known. So, as more and more former aides come forward about his volatility they witnessed in the final months of the administration, critics are questioning why they signed up to work with Trump, to begin with.

The conservative National Review posted a piece on former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin asking "what happened" to her, citing her thoughts and opinions that have evolved over the past year.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) does not want to talk to the courts in Georgia so much that he's fighting the grand jury subpoena even after the judge told him he must appear.

CNN.com revealed the news after his lawyers officially made the filing and the senator and cable news analysts speculated why Graham would refuse to talk if he had nothing to hide.

Ex-TIME magazine editor and former State Department undersecretary Richard Stengel appeared on MSNBC Wednesday where Sen. Lindsey Graham's (R-SC) subpoena for the Georgia voter fraud case was addressed.

Graham, who claimed that he would not comply with the grand jury's subpoena, was told by a judge that he must.

After running her restaurant for years, Rep. Lauren Boebert's (R-CO) Shooters Grill officially closed on Wednesday after she couldn't secure a lease.

In June, Boebert was told by her new landlord, Milken Enterprises, that her lease wouldn't be renewed, the PostIndependent.com reported.

Former White House communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin thinks that there are far more witnesses being subjected to Donald Trump's intimidation than the members are aware of.

At the close of the Tuesday afternoon hearing, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) revealed that another witness that the public had not seen got a phone call from the former president. From what the officials have said about the call, the person didn't answer the phone and all that is known is that the call was made. Had the person answered the call the witness could have testified to what was said. Without answering, however, there's little that can be done, legal experts explained.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — House Select Committee chairman Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) spoke to the press on Capitol Hill Wednesday saying that the Justice Department never asked for the actual transcripts from their interviews.

"They wanted access to our transcripts," he explained to Raw Story, noting that it was only with regard to the case involving the fake electors, nothing to do with the overall attempt to overthrow Congress and the 2020 election.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Pete Aguilar (D-CA), a member of the House Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol, revealed that since former White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson appeared in a public hearing, more evidence has been gathered by witnesses willing to come forward.

Speaking to Raw Story, Aguilar explained that not only have they had more people willing to come forward, but "people who we had previously heard from have shared more."

"The View" addressed the women that worked for former President Donald Trump and the threats they've faced after coming forward about what they witnessed to the House Select Committee investigating the attack on Congress. But part of the conversation focused on the men in the Republican Party and in Trump world who are too scared to either come forward or are ingratiating themselves to the former president.

The group talked about threats against women in public and the sexualized nature of the attacks.

As the seventh day of the House Select Committee's public hearings commenced three women who previously worked in Donald Trump's administration sat with CNN's Jake Tapper delivering their own commentary and experiences with the committee as more and more information was revealed.

Alyssa Farah Griffin, Olivia Troye and Stephanie Grisham are only part of a group of women who have been willing to come forward and talk about what they witnessed in the White House. Politico reported that as Cassidy Hutchinson answered questions Griffin was sending text messages to Sarah Matthews, another former Trump staffer who is set to appear next week. She then reached out to Troye, who was in the hearing room on Capitol Hill.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Shelia Jackson Lee (D-TX) told Raw Story after the House Select Committee's seventh day of hearings on the Jan. 6 attack that the House Judiciary Committee needs to act on their findings.

"This is sedition at best, treasonous in terms of, not my analysis, but an independent body must make that analysis as to what happened to ultimately bring the government down," she said.
