A MAGA senator scrambling to save his seat in a deep-red state was spotted pulling a sly move on the campaign trail.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) skipped the bus Kansas Republicans booked for a five-day barnstorming tour on Tuesday and chose to travel separately, Politico reported Saturday. When the bus reached its first stop in rural Newton, reporters saw Marshall quietly climb aboard, then step off with the other GOP candidates to greet supporters as if he had been riding along from the start.

The tour had already been held up while state party chair Danedri Herbert waited to hear from Marshall, who some Republicans complain has not been campaigning hard enough. Polls show him tied with or trailing Democrat Adam Hamilton, a prominent United Methodist pastor, and a loss would make Marshall the first candidate in nearly a century to lose a Kansas Senate race to a Democrat....

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) faced a "chorus of boos" and was shouted down by a rowdy state fair crowd in his own state.

On Saturday, Marshall attended a debate against his Democratic opponent, Adam Hamilton, during the Kansas State Fair. However, the crowd kept giving him the business.

As the debate started, the crowd began chanting "No more Trump!" alongside "scattered cries of 'U-S-A,'" reported local journalist Derek Zimmerman-Guyer in a post on X. When Marshall was introduced, the crowd erupted into a loud wave of boos....

Republican Sen. Roger Marshall refiled his official home address Friday after Politico caught him listing a house he had already sold.

Politico's Daniel Lippman reported that Marshall relisted a cabin in the western Kansas town of St. John as his residence. The refiling followed questions Lippman raised about an earlier candidate statement that listed a home Marshall sold in 2021. Marshall's spokesperson called the earlier listing a clerical error.

The correction sharpens a long-running question about whether Marshall truly lives in Kansas or closer to his family in Florida. Voter records show Marshall's brother also lists the same cabin address as his residence, according to Lippman. Marshall is now selling the Florida house that first drew that scrutiny.

President Donald Trump is seeing a key group among his core voters turn against him and the MAGA movement, according to a report.

A piece published by The Contrarian on Friday focused on how religious and Christian voters are souring on Trump and how pastors are entering red state races to beat GOP and MAGA candidates.

"White Christian Nationalists who form the backbone of the MAGA movement are outraged that a pro-choice, professed progressive Christian would challenge their claim to theocratic dominance," wrote Jennifer Rubin, referring to Rev. Adam Hamilton, the Democratic Senate nominee running in Kansas....

A MAGA senator was walloped online after he parroted a head-spinning Trump defense of his dubious Iran deal.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) was asked by CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins on Wednesday about Trump's deal to end the war with Iran.

"Are you okay with Iran having missiles?" Collins asked....

A millionaire MAGA lawmaker had a surprising statement on President Donald Trump's Iran war that left people stunned on Tuesday.

Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) argued during a live interview on Newsmax that Americans should make do with the rising gas prices and compared the military conflict with Iran to how the United States defeated the Nazis during WWII, The Daily Beast reported.

“Could you imagine trying to tell the president, ‘Look, you’ve only got so many days to defeat Hitler or defeat Japan?’” Marshall said, reflecting on his own grandparents during World War II. ...
