Senate Republicans push for special counsel in Obama-Russia election probe

U.S. Senators Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and John Cornyn (R-Texas) on Thursday urged Attorney General Pam Bondi to appoint a special counsel to investigate whether former President Barack Obama and his administration attempted to sway the outcome of the 2016 presidential election in favor of Hillary Clinton. In a post on X, Graham wrote, 'For the good of the country, Senator @JohnCornyn and I urge Attorney General Bondi to appoint a special counsel to investigate the extent to which former President Obama, his staff and administration officials manipulated the U.S. national security apparatus for a political outcome.' Their demand follows the release of a newly declassified document by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, which questions earlier assessments that Russian President Vladimir Putin sought to help Donald Trump win. While the document affirms that Russia interfered in the election, it casts doubt on the narrative that Putin favored Trump specifically. Obama's office issued a rare response, saying on Tuesday, 'These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.' Read more from The Hill>>> Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Man catches ‘monster' 86-pound catfish from Missouri River

WASHINGTON, Mo. – A man recently hauled in the catch of a lifetime from the Missouri River, a 'monster' 86-pound blue catfish near Washington, Missouri. Wally Klein made his impressive catch using gizzard shad as bait on a road-and-reel setup. His feat required patience, strength and skill. Wally told the Missouri Department of Conservation it's the biggest fish he has ever caught. After snapping a quick photo, Wally released the massive catfish back into the river. According to MDC, the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers are prime waters for catching large catfish, especially blue, flathead and channel catfish. Tonia Haddix found to be hiding another chimp These catfish often gather in deep water below dikes, in dam tailwaters, or in the mouths of tributary streams. In the summer, they're commonly found around submerged structures, drop-offs, rocky banks and dike tips. Blue catfish in particular, like Wally's catch, favor fast-moving water near the main channel and waterways with a strong current. The Missouri and Mississippi rivers, despite their potential, can be intimidating for anglers, especially after storms or flooding. Strong currents and deep water demand different fishing strategies than those used in smaller lakes or streams. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Rep. Mike Lawler tells The Post he won't run for NY governor

ALBANY, NY – Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) plans to forgo a run for governor and will instead seek reelection for his Hudson Valley House seat, he confirmed to The Post early Wednesday. Despite months of teasing a potential bid to unseat unpopular Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul, Lawler confirmed he'll instead focus on holding onto his battleground congressional seat. Lawler's bowing out clears the way for Rep. Elise Stefanik, who has also been jostling for the GOP nod to run for Governor. Rep. Mike Lawler will instead focus on reelection. CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images Stefanik said Wednesday that she'd make a formal decision after November. 'I am grateful for the outpouring of support across our great state from Republicans, Independents, and Democrats who know it is our last best chance to Save New York,' Stefanik wrote.
