Florida Republicans in the Legislature appealed to the state’s Hispanic population Tuesday morning with a roundtable event with former Colombian right-wing President Alvaro Uribe Velez. Overall, the group painted a dire future for the country if it remained under leftist leadership.

Although the former president told reporters he didn’t know the purpose of his visit to Tallahassee, his presence could help Republicans catch the attention of nearly six million Latinos in the state. Miami-Dade Rep. David Borrero, who hosted the event, put on a show for the former president’s visit with a folkloric dance performance and traditional Colombian food.

Republicans on the House Oversight Committee expressed outrage Wednesday after Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FL) noted that former President Donald Trump associated with Jeffrey Epstein.

During a House Oversight Committee hearing about Hunter Biden, Moskowitz reacted to sex trafficking concerns brought up by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA).

During a congressional hearing Wednesday, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) got into a heated debate about former President Donald Trump and the U.S. Constitution's emoluments clause.

Under the clause, government officials are prohibited from receiving gifts from foreign governments without the permission of Congress.

While Donald Trump seems slated to win a huge victory in Monday's Iowa caucuses, The Washington Post's Jim Geraghty says there are two variables that could make that expected win less likely for the former president.

One is the weather, as Iowa officials are telling people to stay off the roads due to an incoming polar vortex — a development that has caused Trump and Nikki Haley to cancel campaign events.

Police in Colorado have determined that GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) did not commit domestic violence during an altercation at a restaurant with her ex-husband, WESH2 reported.

Jayson Boebert accused the congresswoman of punching him in the face, but later retracted the claim.

After making a surprise appearance at a congressional hearing Wednesday, Hunter Biden abruptly walked out half-an-hour into it — just as Georgia GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene began to speak.

"Excuse me, Hunter, apparently you're afraid of my words," Greene said as Biden left the room. "Aw. Wow, that's too bad."

The rising tide of political threats against election officials isn't just disrupting their lives — it could endanger the nation's votes by scaring people away from jobs at the polls, according to a new analysis from the Guardian.

Threats received by Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows and the Colorado judges who blocked former President Donald Trump from their states' ballots under the 14th Amendment's insurrectionist ban foreshadow a challenging election year in 2024, Lilliana Mason, a political science professor at Johns Hopkins University, told the Guardian Wednesday.

Georgia's Republican Party spent more than $1.3 million on legal fees last year — or 15 times more than it spent in 2021 — with most of that money going to represent fake electors for Donald Trump.

Three of those electors were indicted in August along with the former president in a sprawling racketeering case, and at least eight Trump electors from 2020 accepted immunity deals with the Fulton County district attorney's office to testify about efforts to overturn the presidential election results, reported the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
