- Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) said her Democratic opponent, Troy Jackson, appears to have anger issues in the wake of a Bangor Daily News report on a 1988 police record detailing accusations that he assaulted a man and pushed his longtime partner during a late-night confrontation.
"He's the one who needs to respond to those reports," she told reporters as she kicked off a statewide campaign bus tour in Kittery, Maine. "I'm not going to comment on that. But I will say that based on widespread reporting, it appears that he struggles to control his temper."
Mr. Jackson acknowledged punching the man when he was 19 but denied pushing the woman, who later became his longtime partner.
"Nearly forty years ago, when I was 19 years old, I got into a fight with another man. I took responsibility for it then, and I take responsibility for it now," he said in a statement. "But let me be clear: I have never been violent with my partner Lana, or any other woman. ...

- Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) doubled down on his message in a controversial video telling troops to refuse unlawful orders during a Democratic fundraiser in Clear Lake, Iowa, on Thursday.
"A while back, I made this statement that everybody, including Pete Hegseth, should agree with," Sen. Kelly said. "That our troops should not follow illegal orders."
Last November, Sen. Kelly, a retired Navy captain, and five other Democratic lawmakers released a video calling on military members to refuse illegal orders from the Trump administration.
President Trump, on Truth Social, called the video "SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL" and said it was "punishable by DEATH," which led to a federal investigation and an attempt by prosecutors to indict the lawmakers, as well as a separate Pentagon investigation into Sen. Kelly.
"In response, Donald Trump called for me to be hanged, executed, prosecuted. He couldn't even get the order right," the Ar...

- House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries called for the full repeal of Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission on Thursday, arguing that a series of Supreme Court decisions have weakened democracy and voting rights in America.
"There's been a series of Supreme Court decisions that have eroded democracy in America. Ending Citizens United was perhaps the first," he said.
The 2010 decision struck down restrictions on independent political spending by corporations and unions, ruling that the government could not prohibit such spending based on the speaker's corporate or union identity.
"Then in 2013 you had the Supreme Court and the Shelby County case decimate Section 5 — on the Voting Rights Act," he said.
He went on to describe what he called the final "devastating two decisions" as the Supreme Court's recent rulings that "completely gutted" the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and Trump v. United States, in which the court ruled tha...

"It's only up to the Secret Service. I just follow what they'd like to do, so I go by Secret Service and the military," he told reporters at Joint Base Andrews. "They wanted me to go on a different flight, a different plane, equal safety, but they wanted me to do it, so I do it, I do what they say."
President Trump was covertly moved in an airport catering truck to board a smaller military plane, using the older Air Force One jet as a decoy, the Washington Post reported Monday.

- Sen. Darline Graham (R-SC) portrayed her lack of political experience as a positive after advancing Tuesday night to a runoff against Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) in the special Republican primary for U.S. Senate in South Carolina.
"I've been accused of not being a politician. Guilty as charged," she told reporters. "I will spend the next two weeks of this runoff meeting with voters, and unlike some politicians, listening to their concerns. Yes, listening to their concerns."
She was appointed to complete the term of her late brother, former Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who died unexpectedly last month amid his campaign for a fifth term in the Senate, and has received the backing of President Trump.
"I'm a fighter. I have buried my precious brother. I have taken on the role of a United States senator, and I have had this brutal campaign schedule, and I'm still standing," she said. "If that doesn't tell you I'm a strong person and a fighter, nothing w...

- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the former House speaker, spoke Tuesday about her role in the events leading up to President Biden ending his reelection campaign, saying she questioned his polling and how his campaign was being run.
"I only said to President Biden, 'I've come to question the polling that you have and how your campaign is being conducted. I think there has to be a better campaign to win the White House," she recalled at a forum hosted by Politico in Sacramento, California.
"I didn't ask him not to run or anything like that."
The former speaker also said she told the president that the American people would like him to get a cognitive test to demonstrate that he was fit to serve another four years.

- Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), the former House speaker, said Tuesday she wants Democrats to pick up 30 seats in the November midterms, characterizing the election as a referendum on President Trump.
"My role right now is to make sure we win, and that we win big in November," she said at a forum hosted by Politico in Sacramento, California.
Rep. Pelosi said the Framers designed the House to have members elected every two years to provide a quick referendum on the president.
"And that's what we have right now, a referendum on whatever's happening in the White House right now. And that's why we have to win big," she said.
"We need three to have the majority, for Hakeem Jeffries to be the speaker, and he will. I'd rather see ten times that, like 30, but I'll take more."

"I ran a state agency. I turned it from a struggling agency into a national model," she told reporters after casting her ballot in the crowded GOP primary for U.S. Senate. "I think that's great experience to bring to the table."
The newly appointed senator, who replaced her late brother, Lindsey Graham, in the upper chamber, highlighted her first few weeks in office, including her role in passing a Russia sanctions bill and her vote for Todd Blanche to be attorney general.
"I think I've accomplished a whole lot in three weeks," she said.

- President Trump sought Monday to tie childhood vaccines to autism despite years of scientific evidence showing there's no link.
"Decades ago, children received only a small fraction of the vaccines required today," he said in the Oval Office. "In those times, people were much healthier and of course, the high rates of autism now observed did not exist. So, there's a reason for such epidemic rates of autism, and we're going to bring it back to much closer to where it was."
The president made the remarks before signing an executive order to overhaul the childhood vaccine schedule that changes recommendations and seeks to space out some vaccines across separate medical visits.
"While we do not know exactly what the cause is with respect to autism, it is essential to our research efforts that we have the very best vaccine recommendations in the entire world," he said. "So, we're reducing them. We're changing it to visits over the period of a year, ...

"This updated recommendation finally aligns the United States with other advanced and developed nations around the world," the president said in the Oval Office. "More importantly, it aligns us with common sense and knowledge."
Under the new guidance, vaccines against 11 diseases — including measles, mumps, rubella, polio and whooping cough — would be recommended for all children.
Vaccines against several other diseases — including hepatitis A and B and meningococcal disease — would be recommended for certain high-risk groups or through shared decision-making between parents and health care providers.
Influenza and COVID-19 vaccines would fall into the shared decision-making category.

- Health officials announced a proposal Monday that would require manufacturers to notify the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) when introducing new additives in their products.
The proposed rule aims to close the "generally recognized as safe" (GRAS) loophole, which currently allows companies to self-certify that certain food chemicals or substances are safe without notifying the FDA.
"Today's proposed rule seeks to formally update FDA regulations to require any person introducing a new GRAS substance or use into the food supply to notify the agency of the basis for that GRAS conclusion, unless an exemption applies," acting FDA commissioner Kyle Diamantas said.
"This transition from a voluntary to a mandatory notification program would close a decades-old information gap that would give FDA greater visibility into the substances used in human and animal food."
