Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has jumped into a brewing crisis in Maricopa County over how ballots are to be collected, kicked off by the county's MAGA-aligned recorder jumping to push a new restriction.

Donald Trump was interrupted three times by protesters on Friday during a campaign-style rally in Rockland County, New York, held to boost one of the GOP's most vulnerable House incumbents heading into the 2026 midterms.

The first protester was swiftly removed by police as Trump introduced Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) — caught on video but without audio — before Trump had barely gotten started.

Rep. Mike Collins' (R-GA) Senate campaign deleted a shocking attack posted Friday after invoking former NBC anchor Matt Lauer to mock an adviser to his runoff rival — a reference critics say weaponized one of the most painful chapters of the adviser's wife's life.

Luke Thompson, a strategist for the PAC of Collins' runoff rival Derek Dooley, reposted new polling information on X, showing a significant tightening of the race, with Collins leading Dooley 46-41.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis was confronted by reporters about President Donald Trump's planned $1.776 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund" — and his reaction was to sprint away from the questioners.

Nicole Saphier, Trump's surgeon general nominee, has sold supplement products online "since at least 2024," according to The Guardian – but after the outlet contacted the online storefront this week, it quietly pulled her products from its listings, which some critics have labeled as “snake oil.”

A radiologist, podcast host and frequent Fox News guest, Saphier was tapped by Trump last month for the position of surgeon general. She has also sold health products online under the brand name Drop RX, including products called “Calm” and “Focus.” In its report published on Friday, The Guardian purchased both products for $24.99 each.
