Ohio state lawmaker Andrew Brenner attempted to fly under the radar during his participation in a virtual government meeting while behind the wheel earlier this month. To add insult to injury, the subject carried out this act of carelessness on the very same day that a bill to ban distracted driving was introduced, which ironically includes texting and live streaming.
The footage of the meeting, which was live-streamed and available for public viewing, initially showed Brenner sitting inside a parked car. The senator left the call a few minutes later and reconnected with what seemed to be the background of his home office.
Elise Stefanik tells Steve Bannon in 2022, Republicans need Trump and his coalition of voters
In an overture to the MAGA crowd, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) appeared on Steve Bannon s radio show Thursday, saying that to win in the 2022 midterm elections, Republicans have to run with support from former President Donald Trump and his coalition of voters.
Stefanik is the frontrunner to replace Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as the House Republican Conference chair, should Cheney get ousted from the position. Cheney is a Trump critic, while Stefanik, who emerged as one of Trump s biggest defenders during his first impeachment, has doubled-down on her support. I m committed to being a voice and sending a clear message that we are one team, Stefanik told Bannon, and that means working with [Trump] and working with all of our excellent Republican members of Congress.
