Republican senator Susan Collins says she will not vote for Trump

Friday, 12 July 2024 20:20

Sen Susan Collins US senator Susan Collins didn’t vote for her fellow Republican Donald Trump for president in 2016 or 2020 – and the third time will not be the charm.

The longtime moderate conservative from Maine told reporters on Friday that she intended to write in former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley’s name on the ballot in November. The move recalls 2016, when Collins said she wrote in then-US House speaker Paul Ryan for president over Trump, who won the White House before losing to Democratic rival Joe Biden in 2020.

Collins is the only New England Republican in Congress and the only Republican holding statewide office in Maine, where Trump has twice won an electoral vote. She said Friday that she is sticking with her endorsement of Haley despite the fact Haley will not be on the ballot.

Tuesday, 18 June 2024 23:06

A Boeing quality assurance inspector has come forward with serious new allegations against the airline giant shortly before its chief executive is scheduled to testify before the Senate.

Sam Mohawk has accused Boeing of systemically mishandling and losing hundreds of damaged or defective parts at its plant in Washington, likely leading to their improper and dangerous installation on 737 Max airplanes, according to a complaint filed with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

Mohawk’s report was filed last week and publicly released Tuesday by the U.S. Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, according to a statement from the subcommittee’s chairman, Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.). Mohawk shared his concerns with the subcommittee last month.

The subcommittee is scheduled to question Boeing CEO Dave Calhoun on Tuesday afternoon about the company’s safety practices.

Ethics Committee expands Matt Gaetz investigation as it looks into sexual misconduct, drug use allegations

Tuesday, 18 June 2024 22:46

Gaetz was also under investigation by the U.S. Justice Department for allegations that he had sex with a 17-year-old girl and paid for her to travel with him. The DOJ ended the investigation in February 2023 and did not bring charges against Gaetz.

The House Ethics Committee said on Tuesday that it is also dropping its investigation into a series of other allegations against Gaetz. It said it “will take no further action at this time on the allegations that he may have shared inappropriate images or videos on the House floor, misused state identification records, converted campaign funds to personal use, and/or accepted a bribe or improper gratuity

When reached for comment, Gaetz’s office directed USA TODAY to a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, from the congressman on Monday blaming former Republican House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., for the investigation.

Gaetz led an effort to oust McCarthy from the speakership last fall. McCarthy resigned from Congress months later.

Thursday, 18 April 2024 21:30

The Republican US representative for Wisconsin shared more insight into his decision to vacate his seat while talking with reporters on Tuesday, the NBC affiliate WLUK reported.

Gallagher, 40, said: “This is more just me wanting to prioritize being with my family ... I signed up for the death threats and the late-night swatting, but they did not. And for a young family, I would say this job is really hard.”

Republican House majority to shrink as Mike Gallagher steps down

Friday, 22 March 2024 23:56

The Republican majority in the US House of Representatives is set to dwindle further with the early exit of Mike Gallagher of Wisconsin, once a rising star of the party.

A former US marine who twice deployed to Iraq, Gallagher, 40, is a relatively moderate voice in party at the mercy of the far right.

He had already announced his decision to retire but in a statement on Friday he said: “After conversations with my family, I have made the decision to resign my position … effective 19 April. I’ve worked closely with House Republican leadership on this timeline.”

The announcement came shortly after Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, an extremist even in a party held hostage by its far right, responded to the passage of a Democrat-backed funding bill by filing a motion to remove Mike Johnson, the speaker from Louisiana.

Wisconsin Supreme Court rejects move to reconsider state's congressional maps

Saturday, 02 March 2024 16:39

The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday rejected a request to reconsider the state's congressional maps ahead of the next election, ensuring the current district boundaries will remain in place for 2024.

The court's decision ends a last-minute push from Democrats to change the state's congressional maps after they successfully signed into law new legislative boundaries last month that weakened Republicans' grip on the state Legislature.

"This motion comes as no surprise after the court's new majority telegraphed its willingness to rebalance political power in the state of Wisconsin by overturning Johnson v. Wisconsin Elections Commission," conservative Justice Rebecca Bradley wrote in the order, referencing the court's previous decision on the maps.

"While the court rightfully denies this motion," she added, "it likely won't be long until the new majority flexes its political power again to advance a partisan agenda despite the damage inflicted on the independence and integrity of the court."
