GOP Senator Claims Matt Gaetz Had 1 NSFW Label For This Trump-Loving Governor Sen. Markwayne Mullin continued to accuse Gaetz of X-rated conduct following his efforts to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy as House speaker.
Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) claimed Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.) once cooked up a foul phrase to describe South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem (R) in her latest round of accusations toward the Florida Republican. “The first time I ever met this guy, he walked up to me and [then-Rep.] Kristi Noem at the time was at the podium... he said, 'Man, she's a fine,' and you can put the B-word in place there,” Mullin told Newsmax just one day after he accused Gaetz of openly detailing his sexual experiences to fellow lawmakers. “And I looked at him and said, ‘Really?’ because Kristi is a very close friend of mine, and he turned around and walked away,” Mullin added. Mullin ― who formerly served in the House ― said that Gaetz approached him and apologized after the remark aimed at the now-governor, who has recently been viewed as a potential vice presidential pick for former President Donald Trump. “But he still shouldn't have said it. It was completely out of line, and this is the type of individual Matt Gaetz is,” Mullin said. His accusations arrive after Gaetz launched a successful bid to oust Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) as House speaker this week. Mullin, a McCarthy ally, unleashed a number of wild claims in a CNN interview on Wednesday, including one that alleged Gaetz of bragging about crushing “E.D. medicine and [chasing] it with energy drinks so he could go all night.” Gaetz, in a statement to Forbes on Mullin's CNN and Newsmax interviews, said he doesn't think he and Mullin “have said 20 words to each other” on the House floor. “This is a lie from someone who doesn't know me and who is coping with the death of the political career of his friend Kevin. Thoughts and prayers,” Gaetz said. Mullin added to the claims of X-rated conduct elsewhere in his interview with Newsmax, noting that Gaetz’s behavior is not grounds to expel him but rather something his constituents “should make a hard look at.” “There was many times that he would go out on news programs in the evening, and he would tell me, personally, 'Hey, I gotta go sell my constituents catheters,'” said Mullin, who referenced Gaetz apparently taking a swipe at the older adults in his base. “He thought that was funny,” he continued. “To me, that's not funny. Take your job and make it serious, do what’s right by it, and serve.”

Chris Sununu said a 2020 rematch "is not what America wants." ben blanchet New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R) isn't ruling out the possibility that both President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump won't appear on the ballot in 2024. (You can check out his comments in the clip below) “It's not going to be that way. Look, I think there's a good shot that neither of them are actually on that ballot," Sununu said on Sunday's edition of "Meet the Press." Advertisement “I think Trump can lose very much if they winnow it down to one-on-one. I think there's a lot of issues that are going to come to bear with President Biden over the next year and a lot of opportunity for the Democrats to find another, another candidate." Sununu's comments follow a recent poll that suggests 75% and 69% of U.S. adults wouldn't like to see either Biden or Trump, respectively, run for president. “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd, earlier in the interview, asked the governor whether he supports the No Labels political organization putting up their own candidate on the ballot next year. “Well, look, according to the polls you just showed about 70% of America is supportive of that idea to not see Trump and Biden on that ticket,” Sununu said. “I heard someone put it once, '70% of America, if it's a Trump-Biden ticket, will be politically homeless.' And I think that's a very good way to put it. They won't have any inspiration. They won't feel very confident about going forward…" The governor, a Trump critic who turned down a possible GOP presidential campaign, later declared that No Labels has an opportunity in the election "like never before." “It would have to be the right candidate. It would have to be someone very energizing, positive, transparent, someone with a good record," he said. Sununu, when asked whether another Biden term or another Trump term concerns him more, pointed to his concerns with having both on the ticket. “I think you're bringing up the exact right point: This is not what America wants,” Sununu told Todd. “It doesn't mean our primary system is broken. It means more of us have to be engaged in the system to make sure that our voice is heard as that 70% of Americans who always want to look forward. With Biden and Trump, all you're doing is looking backwards and re-litigating a lot of drama. Nobody wants that.

DONALD TRUMP NEWS:POLITICS DONALD TRUMP GLENN KIRSCHNER Ex-Prosecutor Sounds The Alarm On Trump's 'Demonstrated Danger' To Witnesses, Jurors Glenn Kirschner broke down over his concern that judges haven't "stepped up to address" the threat of the former president. Glenn Kirschner — a former U.S. Army prosecutor and current MSNBC legal analyst — warned of the threat Donald Trump poses to witnesses and jurors in his four ongoing indictments as he declared that the former president is a "danger." “I am concerned that the judges have not yet stepped up to address the danger, the ongoing danger, the demonstrated danger of Donald Trump to witnesses, to jurors, to prosecutors, to judges and to their families,” Kirschner told SiriusXM host Dean Obeidallah. in an interview shared Friday. Advertisement “I hope at some point the judges realize that Donald Trump is a danger to the community and he should be detained pending trial because that will begin to neutralize the threat, in part because you'll take his megaphone away. I think we're going to be having that conversation in the months to come," he added. Kirschner's remarks follow several instances where Trump has hurled social media attacks at prosecutors including special counsel Jack Smith, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, New York Attorney General Letitia James and Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis. In August, Georgia officials said they're investigating threats made to grand jurors who indicted Trump and 18 others. Obeidallah asked the ex-federal prosecutor whether Trump "eclipse[s] the concerns" he has had toward people he has tried in past cases. Advertisement Before discussing Trump, Kirschner described dealing with a criminal organization that he tied to 30 killings where there was an anonymous jury and other security measures in place due to the "danger" posed by the group. “And guess what? They still got to some of the jurors and some of the jurors had to be dismissed midtrial," said Kirschner, adding that he's tried cases with the "most rigorous security measures" in Washington. “I have an even graver concern for Donald Trump because his reach is so broad, his followers are so rabid at times and so detached from reality. I'm sorry, this is a cult,” he said.

DONALD TRUMP NEWS ELECTION 2024:POLITICS DONALD TRUMP 2024 Election ADAM SCHIFF Adam Schiff: Disqualifying Trump Could Be 'Legitimate Issue' In 2024 Election Schiff said there is a "valid argument" for keeping Donald Trump off the ballot next year. The video player is currently playing an ad. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) thinks there are serious questions about whether Donald Trump is even eligible for the office of president. On Sunday, the California congressman said that there is “pretty clear” evidence Trump is in violation of the 14th Amendment’s third section, which blocks anyone who has “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from serving in elected office. ADVERTISEMENT Schiff explained why there is a “valid argument” for keeping Trump off the ballot while appearing on MSNBC following earlier reports that election officials across the U.S. are bracing themselves for legal challenges to Trump’s 2024 presidential candidacy. “If you engage in acts of insurrection or rebellion against the government, or you give aid and comfort to those who do, you are disqualified from running,” Schiff told host Jen Psaki. Donald Trump speaks to the media after being booked at the Fulton County jail in Atlanta, Georgia, on Aug. 24.

It just requires that you have engaged in these acts," he continued, later adding how that definition "fits Donald Trump to a T." Trump has been accused of inciting the Jan. 6, 2021, riots with his claims of a stolen 2020 presidential election. He is currently facing multiple criminal charges over his actions leading up to and during the attacks on the U.S. capital. Schiff said any case against the former president would still face major legal scrutiny, telling Psaki how any 14th Amendment-based challenges to Trump’s candidacy would likely end up in the Supreme Court, which currently holds a 6-3 conservative majority. Rep. Adam Schiff speaks as the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. The Capitol holds its final meeting on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 19, 2022.

JACQUELYN MARTIN VIA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS "That's the big question mark through all of this," the congressman said. “Which is what will the Supreme Court do?” “There are prominent constitutional scholars, as well as prominent progressive scholars who believe that he should be disqualified,” Schiff went on. ADVERTISEMENT “But, will the court take that step ultimately? Only time will tell, but I do think it is a very legitimate issue. By the clear terms of the 14th Amendment, he should be disqualified from holding office." This weekend Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) made a similar case during an appearance on ABC “This Week,” telling anchor George Stephanopoulos there’s a “powerful argument to be made” for invoking the 14th Amendment. “In my view, the attack on the Capitol that day was designed for a particular purpose at a particular moment,” Kaine said. “And that was to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power as is laid out in the Constitution. So I think there’s a powerful argument to be made.” RELATED:Donald Trump NEWS
