Former President Donald Trump endorsed Katie Arrington in her bid to unseat Republican incumbent Rep. Nancy Mace in South Carolina.

Arrington, who announced her campaign Tuesday, worked in the Trump administration as a chief information security officer in the Department of Defense and has already taken a stand in questioning the integrity of the 2020 election.

Trump’s endorsement comes days after former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley endorsed Mace in the election. Mace, who took office last year, drew ire from Trump for criticizing him following the Jan. 6 riot on Capitol Hill and suggesting that Congress should consider censuring him for his actions that day. She voted against impeaching him in connection to the Capitol siege. She also rejected efforts to overturn the 2020 election and voted against objections to certifying the election. Read Full Story

The Biden administration is ducking accountability by refusing to publicly answer key questions about the disastrous U.S. and allied military withdrawal from Afghanistan, top Republicans charged Wednesday after a closed-door hearing that offered lawmakers the rare chance to grill senior U.S. officials about the events and policies behind last summer’s deadly pullout.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Secretary of State Antony Blinken spent more than three hours before a joint hearing of the Senate Armed Services and Foreign Relations committees, though much of what was discussed will remain secret over the loud objections of GOP leaders, who argued there was no reason Wednesday’s event couldn’t have been public. Read Full Story
