A sluggish elevator forced Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) into an awkward confrontation with a local TV reporter seeking answers about her gubernatorial campaign.

The MAGA senator is the frontrunner in the Republican primary for Tennessee governor, but she's refusing to debate her GOP rivals and has refused to give interviews with reporters, so the delayed elevator at an event in Nashville forced her into a tight spot with WTVF-TV's Ben Hall.

FBI Director Kash Patel waited six months to disclose a six-figure stock purchase in a company that does millions of dollars in business with his own Justice Department — a delay one watchdog said broke federal law, according to federal records reviewed by NOTUS.

NOTUS reported that Patel bought between $100,001 and $250,000 in MicroStrategy stock on Nov. 21 but didn't tell federal regulators until May 26 — six months later.

White House staffers scrambled to scrub social media evidence of Donald Trump's humiliating turnout at his "Great American State Fair" opening after the president blew his top over aerial photos documenting the sparse crowd for the rally he headlined.

According to CNN reporting, Trump was "infuriated" behind the scenes after witnessing visual proof of his attendance problem with a modest audience, estimated by the Washington Post to be just over 1,000 attendees, gathered around the stage.

Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R-NJ) seemed to vanish for months, with his office refusing to give any details other than that he was recovering from a medical issue, and even leaving his own Republican colleagues in the dark.

Finally, upon returning this week, he revealed the issue: he was struggling with an episode of severe depression that incapacitated him from work and required hospitalization. This revelation, according to Politico, has left lawmakers in both parties frustrated that he couldn't be honest with them in the first place.

Twenty-five Democratic-led states plus the District of Columbia have sued the Trump administration over its new work requirements for people who get their health insurance through Medicaid.

At issue is a “medically frail” designation that the states say is too narrow and will make it too difficult for ill and disabled people to remain on Medicaid.

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin was hit with blowback for claiming that Chinese women were racing into the U.S. days before giving birth so their children would be American citizens.

President Donald Trump's DHS chief appeared Wednesday morning on "Fox and Friends," where he made the baseless claims following a Supreme Court decision to strike down an executive order limiting birthright citizenship.

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) is plotting her revenge against the Republican Party that abandoned her after she clashed with Donald Trump — and her weapon could prove devastating to GOP electoral prospects.

Appearing on "Piers Morgan Uncensored" Tuesday, Greene revealed she is actively considering launching a third political party explicitly designed to poach disaffected Republicans and fracture the GOP coalition heading into the midterms.

Fox News host Dana Perino was left stunned after President Donald Trump's financial disclosure revealed nearly $1.4 billion in crypto earnings.

The reaction came right after reporters grilled Trump on Tuesday about the filing in a press gaggle outside Air Force One.

Fox News commentator and right-wing talk radio host Mark Levin lashed out at the Supreme Court's decision upholding their century-old birthright citizenship precedent — but swiftly got called out by experts and observers for getting a basic fact about the decision incorrect.

Levin, who declared the ruling "one of the dumbest decisions I’ve seen" on "Hannity" after it was handed down, took to X to complain that "The 14th amendment was adopted by more than 2/3rds of the members of Congress and thereafter ratified by 3/4ths of the states. Yet, nowhere can the Court or its proponents point to all those elected representatives at the federal and state level who argued for birthright citizenship for the children of aliens — illegal aliens of all matter!"
