GOP congressman facing eviction blames broken payment links for $85K in unpaid rent
Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) claims a faulty payment portal has prevented him from paying $85,000 in rent for his penthouse apartment – as he faces possible eviction. The congressman's luxury Washington, DC, apartment overlooking the Potomac River comes with a hefty $20,833 per month price tag. The penthouse level of his building offers residents 'access through private elevators for discrete comings and goings,' 'captivating views in every residence,' 'bold Italian cabinetry,' 'Calacatta quartz countertops' and the services and amenities 'of a world-class hotel,' according to the website. 3 Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., walks down the House steps of the Capitol on Thursday, May 18, 2023. CQ-Roll Call, Inc via Getty Images The building was once home to former President Joe Biden's granddaughter, Naomi. Mills' landlord contends Florida's 7th District rep hasn't paid his rent since March, documents filed last week in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia show. 'I know facts are unusual and unfamiliar thing for you,' Mills wrote on X Monday, in a fiery response directed at Daily Beast reporter Roger Sollenberger, who first reported on the eviction case, 'but here's just the past two months where you can see I'm repeatedly asking for payment links and again as I tried with management today, it failed to process.' Mills' tweet included screenshots of two emails he sent to his landlord on June 17 and July 3, reporting that the link he has 'does not work.' The lawmaker argued that the error code he's receiving, which he also included a screenshot of, is indicative of a problem on the landlord's end. 3 Mills claims a faulty payment portal has prevented him from paying $85,000 in rent for his penthouse apartment, as he faces possible eviction.

Cory Mills/X Mills went on to describe Sollenberger as a 'biased hack!' The landlord's ledger, included in the eviction documents, shows Mills has been late on his rent more than a dozen times since June of 2023, when he first moved into the swanky building. A spokesperson for Mills did not immediately respond to The Post's request for comment. The congressman's office told the Washington Examiner that Mills 'has been in contact with his landlord from the beginning, attempting to resolve their payment link issue so he can pay his bill.' An initial hearing date in the eviction case has been set for September.

Paul on Trump shooting: ‘I think we aren't going to know the motive'
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said Sunday he believed the public may never know what prompted the attempted assassination of President Trump in Pennsylvania a year ago. 'I think we aren't going to know the motive, and I take that at face value. I know a lot of times when we don't get something and we suspect something, we think government's lying to us,' Paul told CBS News's Margaret Brennan on 'Face the Nation.' 'And look, I have my doubts about government on many levels, but I think on this level, they've tried their best, and I don't think there's a secret answer that they're not revealing to us,' he added. 'I think they just don't know.' Sunday marks one year since Trump faced an assassination attempt at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa., serving as a turning point for the president both politically and personally. It also kick-started an ongoing reckoning at the Secret Service. The shooting boosted Republican support of Trump for the remaining months of the 2024 campaign, even amid fresh excitement among Democrats as former Vice President Kamala Harris ascended to the top of the party's presidential ticket over former President Biden. 'One year ago today, an assassin opened fire on President Donald J. Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania. The bullet hit—but by the grace of God, he stood up. Bloodied. Unbowed. And he fought harder,' the White House said Sunday in a post on the social platform X. 'July 13th is a reminder: we fight, we win, AND WE NEVER SURRENDER,' the post continued.

Gonzales on whether Trump's Mexico tariff will hurt Texas: ‘It may' but I ‘support the president'
Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-Texas) said he supports President Trump's approach to tariffs on Mexico, even though he acknowledged the tax on imported goods will likely hurt Texans if it takes effect. In an interview on CNN's 'State of the Union,' Gonzales was asked whether the 30 percent tariff that the Trump administration recently announced on Mexico, Texas's largest trading partner, would hurt his constituents. 'It may, but I do support the president in this. I think for too long, Mexico has gotten away with, you know, allowed to do anything,' Gonzales said on CNN. But the border-district congressman said he's hopeful a deal will come together by Aug. 1, the new deadline that President Trump unveiled in his letters to numerous countries about when they should expect 'reciprocal' tariffs to take effect. 'I'm very focused on the Aug. 1 date. What that means is President Trump has given us a couple weeks to try to come up with a solution, and I've seen Mexico … change, from months ago, basically being allowed to do whatever they want to … all of the sudden, they're coming to the table. They're negotiating more. President Trump has mentioned this. They're moving in the right direction. We absolutely have to do more,' Gonzales said. 'But yes, if these tariffs come into place, it hurts everyone,' he continued. After Trump unveiled 30 percent tariffs on Mexico and the European Union, leaders of both trading partners indicated an interest in negotiating with Trump ahead of the Aug. 1 deadline.
