Republican groups are pouring millions into rescuing Ohio Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) as he lashes out at GOP senators who wanted him gone.

Miller looked like a long shot over the summer after his ex-wife leveled domestic violence allegations against him. Ohio's two Republican senators said he should exit the race, and President Donald Trump warned him his odds weren't good, according to reporting by The Wall Street Journal.

Now the GOP is going all in. The Journal reported Tuesday that the Congressional Leadership Fund, a super PAC aligned with House GOP leadership, committed roughly $5 million to ads in the district last month, while the National Republican Congressional Committee has also bought airtime. Democrats have countered with a blitz of nearly $6 million....

Rep. Max Miller's already ugly divorce has escalated into a legal showdown involving his own former father-in-law, Sen. Bernie Moreno, according to newly filed court documents obtained by TMZ.

Miller reportedly issued subpoenas last week to Moreno and his wife, Bridget, Miller's former mother-in-law, demanding they appear to answer questions about their daughter Emily and what they know regarding the ongoing divorce proceedings.

Moreno very nearly got pulled into the case once before. He was almost dragged into the divorce back in 2025, but Miller and Emily struck a settlement at the time, only to end up back in court months later once new disputes surfaced. Moreno has been vocal in the past about his strained relationship with his former son-in-law, publicly accusing Miller of tormenting the family for years....

Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) looked uncomfortable during an interview as he was faced with a question about Trump's accusation of a "Democrat plot" to kill him.

On Tuesday, Moreno appeared on CNN for an interview with anchor Kaitlan Collins. Trump had said that day that he found new information that the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, was part of a "Democrat plot" to try to kill him, Collins mentioned.

"I looked through the highlights of what has come out. I don't see anything that points to that," Collins said. "Have you seen anything that points to that?"...

A former Republican operative on Thursday disclosed how the growing scandal around Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) and the abuse allegations has revealed a harsh reality MAGA has tried to conceal.

Steve Schmidt, co-founder of the anti-Trump organization The Lincoln Project, explained that inside MAGA, Trump allies have pledged their loyalty to the president — no matter what.

Schmidt referred to Miller as a growing problem for the GOP with "a nuclear distemper problem," referring to the accusations that Miller poured boiling hot water on his ex-wife, Emily Moreno — the daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH) — and allegedly broke his 2-year-old daughter's collarbone....

CNN anchor Jake Tapper challenged Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) as the lawmaker tried to defend himself against claims of abusing his ex-wife and daughter amid growing calls for him to resign.

Tapper pressed Miller to respond to the allegations and sought more information about what happened involving his 2-year-old daughter and former wife, Emily Moreno, daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH), who broke his silence this weekend over the ongoing legal battle.

"Congressman, I'm not talking about whether or not it was legal or illegal to record your ex-wife," Tapper said. "I'm saying that the reason we didn't air it is because it was our understanding that the recording was done without her permission. That's something else. That's discretion. That's journalism. That's not a question of legality. But let's talk about it because there is a police report from the suspected child abuse incident in February involving your daughter."...

Embattled Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) baffled CNN anchor Jake Tapper by making a damning comparison during a heated interview.

On Tuesday, Miller appeared on "The Lead" with Jake Tapper to address the boiling backlash he's facing over allegations that he abused his ex-wife and daughter. Miller is facing pressure to drop out of his reelection bid, with even President Donald Trump reportedly pushing him to drop out and Miller's ex-father-in-law, Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH), condemning him.

During the interview, Tapper mentioned that not only did Miller's ex-wife make damning allegations against him, but so did two other women. "The question is, are all three of these women, who don't know each other, are all three of them lying?" Tapper asked....
