Senate Republican leadership fight becomes a proxy for MAGA influence under Trump

WASHINGTON — A looming battle among Senate Republicans over who to pick as their next majority leader is turning into an early test of how much power President-elect Donald Trump's “MAGA” movement will exert in his second term. The three-way fight to replace outgoing Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., pits Senate Minority Whip John Thune, R-S.D., against Sen. John Cornyn, a former McConnell deputy, and underdog candidate Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla. The battle will gauge the staying power of long-serving senior Republicans grounded in an institutionalist view of the Senate, like Thune and Cornyn, against an emboldened pro-Trump wing looking to smash any vestiges of the old GOP as he returns to power. Scott's seeking to claim the latter mantle and told NBC News in an inter...

Sean Combs’ former bodyguard sues woman who accused them both of sexual assault

A former body guard for Sean Combs has filed a defamation lawsuit against a woman who in September accused him of physically and sexually assaulting her in 2001. Joseph Sherman called the allegations in Thalia Graves’ lawsuit “utterly and entirely false,” in documents filed Thursday in federal court in Manhattan. He is also suing Graves’ attorneys, including Gloria Allred. Both women spoke at a news conference to discuss the lawsuit in September. They declined comment Monday. Graves alleged in her lawsuit that in 2001 both Combs and Sherman sexually assaulted her at the embattled music mogul’s recording studio in Manhattan after she was summoned to a meeting with Combs to discuss her then-boyfriend’s work performance at the Bad Boy record label. Combs, she said in th...
