Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday said there’s “no room” within the Republican party to “destroy” President Trump’s agenda, a day after Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-La.) failed to advance to a runoff for his seat in the upper chamber.
It also comes as the president backs similar efforts to unseat Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) for frequently breaking with Trump.

Van Hollen says he's unsure Patel will take alcohol use test after heated hearing
|
Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) said Sunday that he was unsure that FBI Director Kash Patel will take an alcohol use test after a heated hearing in which the senator pressed Patel on his drinking.
“Well, senator, you took the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test. You challenged Director Patel to do the same. Do you have any indication that he's actually going to take that test? Or do you think that that was a challenge that, to some extent, you did just to prove a point?” NBC News’s Kristen Welker asked Van Hollen on “Meet the Press.”

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Sunday reiterated his concerns about high gas prices as the GOP looks to hang on to its slim majority in the lower chamber this November.
Since the war in Iran began in late February, gas prices have skyrocketed, with Tehran effectively closing the Strait of Hormuz. In a Sunday interview with Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday,” Johnson said the ongoing “economic trouble” facing Americans is “related directly to the Strait of Hormuz.”

All three branches of government should have a stock trading ban: House Republican
|
Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-Ind.) on Sunday said that all three branches of government should be subject to a stock trading ban “sooner rather than later,” echoing some colleagues on the other side of the aisle.
“One of the things that I think is important for members of Congress is we have to live above reproach. We have to stay above any sort of questions like that. And that's why, you know, me personally, I just sold all my publicly traded stocks,” Stutzman said during an appearance on NewsNation’s “The Hill Sunday."
