☆ Time running out for Trump's Republican 2024 rivals as they face off in second debate
  + stars: | 2023-09-27 | by ( Tim Reid | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +5 min
[1/2] Former U.S. President and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump attends a 2024 presidential election campaign event at Sportsman Boats in Summerville, South Carolina, U.S. September 25, 2023. Seven Republican candidates will be on stage for the debate that begins at 9 p.m. Trump's Republican rivals need to change the trajectory with less than four months until voting begins in Iowa, which holds the first Republican nominating contest, the strategists say. DEBATE IS 'MAKE-OR-BREAK' FOR DESANTISMancuso said this week's debate was especially important for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. Once the clear second-place candidate behind Trump, DeSantis has floundered, and some other candidates have closed the gap with him in recent polls.

They include Marco Rubio's 2016 presidential campaign, major Senate campaigns, and an anti-Trump PAC.

Ron Johnson against former Democratic Sen. Russ Feingold.
☆ A 2nd Republican will soon declare a presidential run, but expect another lag before a 'clown car' of candidates make it official, seasoned operatives say

Trump is the only one who declared a presidential run for 2024. Campaign insiders call this presidential campaign period the "preseason," the "trial balloon season," or the "incubation period." And both could take advantage the spotlight of a presidential run because they don't currently hold office, in contrast to governors and US Senators potentially in the mix. Andrew Harnik/APThe field will be set by summerWhen it comes to planning a campaign, candidates don't have full control over their timelines. "If we go into the Iowa Caucuses with more than a dozen candidates," Kochel said, "then some part of the process has failed."
☆ Supreme Court denies Sen. Lindsey Graham's bid to avoid testifying in Georgia election interference case
  + stars: | 2022-11-01 | by ( Dan Mangan | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +5 min
The Supreme Court on Tuesday denied a request by Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., to block a subpoena demanding his testimony before a Georgia grand jury investigating possible criminal interference in that state's 2020 presidential election. The subpoena to Graham calls for him to testify before the grand jury in Atlanta on Nov. 17. In its order Tuesday, the Supreme Court noted, "The lower courts also made clear that Senator Graham may return to the District Court should disputes arise regarding the application of the Speech or Debate Clause immunity to specific questions. " A day after that loss, Graham asked Thomas, the Supreme Court justice who has authority over emergency applications from 11th Circuit cases, to temporarily block the subpoena. "Secretary Raffensperger said that Senator Graham suggested that Georgia could discard or invalidate large numbers of mail-in ballots from certain areas," the filing said.
☆ Supreme Court rejects Sen. Lindsey Graham's request to block a grand jury subpoena in Georgia election probe

The Supreme Court denied Lindsey Graham's request to block a grand jury subpoena. A Georgia grand jury is investigating alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. In an unsigned order, the nation's highest court dismissed Graham's emergency request to block the subpoena, writing: "a stay or injunction is not necessary to safeguard the Senator's speech or debate clause immunity." Justice Clarence Thomas, who handles emergency matters arising from Georgia, referred the issue to the full Supreme Court after he temporarily halted a lower court ruling ordering Graham to abide by the subpoena. President Donald Trump also called Raffensperger and pressed him to "find" enough votes to swing the state to him.

☆ Justice Clarence Thomas temporarily blocks Lindsey Graham's testimony in Georgia election interference probe

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on Monday temporarily put on hold a requirement that Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., testify in a Georgia prosecutor's probe of alleged interference in the 2020 election by former President Donald Trump and his allies. The decision by Thomas, who handles emergency requests that arise from Georgia, freezes the litigation while the justices weigh Graham's plea that the Supreme Court quash the subpoena. Thomas had previously asked lawyers for the Fulton County District Attorney's Office to respond to Graham's request by close of business on Thursday. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected Graham's attempt to avoid answering questions about two phone calls he made to Georgia election officials after the 2020 election because, he argued, his actions were protected under the U.S. Constitution’s speech and debate clause. It does not mean the justices will grant Graham's request once the briefing is completed.
☆ Abortion becomes flashpoint in key Kansas race as Democrat launches six-figure ad

Rep. Sharice Davids, D-Kan., is putting abortion rights front-and-center in her rematch against Republican Amanda Adkins in the state's 3rd Congressional District, launching a new ad Saturday targeting her opponent on the issue. That amendment failed in August with nearly 60% of voters casting ballots against it — a vote that has influenced the conversation around abortion rights nationally in the weeks since. The ad, which airs on broadcast, cable and satellite TV, also highlights Adkins' support for the proposed Republican Study Committee's fiscal year 2023 budget. "She was 100% for allowing politicians to ban abortion in Kansas," the ad begins. Abortion rights have emerged as a flashpoint nationally after the Supreme Court overturned the landmark Roe v. Wade ruling this summer, energizing abortion rights supporters.
☆ Doctors say Graham abortion ban would force women to have transvaginal ultrasounds
  + stars: | 2022-09-20 | by ( Https | Media-Cldnry.S-Nbcnews.Com Image Upload Newscms Jonathan-Allen-Circle-Byline-Template.Jpg | Jonathan Allen | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +5 min
WASHINGTON — Sen. Lindsey Graham's national 15-week abortion ban would likely force many women to undergo invasive transvaginal ultrasounds before terminating pregnancies, according to doctors. Because violations of Graham's proposed 15-week ban would be punishable by up to five years in prison, doctors say the legislation would create a powerful incentive to perform transvaginal ultrasounds to make an age judgment. With Democrats in control of the House, Senate and White House, Graham’s bill stands no chance of advancing this year. Before he introduced his bill, Graham's effort was expected by some in the GOP to help Republicans reset the politics of abortion. For others, the details of Graham's ban are politically tricky, especially in states that have passed different abortion restrictions in recent years.
☆ GOP senator pushes back on Lindsey Graham's proposed federal abortion ban: "We should allow the states to explore the different possibilities'
  + stars: | 2022-09-18 | by ( Grace Panetta | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +3 min
GOP Sen. Mike Rounds doesn't support Lindsey Graham's 15-week abortion ban. "I think right now we should allow the states to explore the different possibilities," Rounds said. Rounds told CNN that Congress telling the states what to do "is not the right direction to go." Over a dozen Republican-controlled states, including South Dakota, have enacted near-total abortion bans since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in late June. But several Senate Republicans were caught off guard by Graham introducing a 15-week abortion ban just weeks before the 2022 midterms.
☆ Lindsey Graham's abortion ban bill baffles some Republicans as Democrats sharpen attacks in key midterm races

Graham's bill has virtually no chance of passing the current Congress, where Democrats hold slim majorities in the House and Senate. Some Republicans, including GOP candidates in pivotal Senate races, have backed Graham's new proposal. But other top Republicans either refused to back Graham's bill or expressed a belief that individual states should set their own abortion laws. "With regard to abortion, Democrats are clearly focused on abortion," he added. As Graham's bill brought a renewed focus to the issue, Democrats pounced.
☆ Sen. Lindsey Graham intended abortion ban to arm GOP with midterm issue
  + stars: | 2022-09-16 | by ( ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: 1 min
A source tells CNN that Sen. Lindsey Graham's proposed national ban on abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy was intended to arm Republicans with a policy issue they could rally around ahead of the midterm elections. Graham's current stance is a reversal from his previous position.
