A dramatic divide is erupting in the far-right House Freedom Caucus after the group voted to oust a third member in the span of a year. The ejection of Rep. Warren Davidson, R-Ohio, was led by allies of Chairman Bob Good, R-Va., Politico reported. Good recently lost a primary election for his district in Virginia – the only congressional Republican to do so – and Davidson openly backed Good’s challenger, the Trump-ensorsed John McGuire.

SEATTLE - We all heard the phrase "when one door closes, another opens," and for 53-year-old Senator from Florida Marco Rubio, the popular saying could not be more true. Eight years ago, he missed out on the chance of being elected as the Republican presidential nominee for 2016. More recently, many people believed Rubio was a top candidate to be Donald Trump's running mate for the 2024 elections, which eventually went to Ohio Senator J.D. Vance. But Florida Republicans argue that there is another door that could open for Rubio, as they see him as top contender for another high-profile job in a future Trump administration.
