Faded arguments

Unfit for office quiet since Aug 5

Commentary argues Max Miller’s domestic-abuse allegations make him unfit to serve, and that his efforts to investigate himself are a stunt to avoid accountability rather than clear his name.

Defense backfired quiet since Aug 5

Efforts by Miller, Trump allies and Republicans to defend or keep him on the ballot have backfired, casting the party as excusing alleged abuse for power and turning the scandal into a threat to his seat.

Child Photo Release quiet since Aug 5

Max Miller’s legal team is accused of mistakenly filing court documents that exposed a graphic or nude image of his daughter, deepening the domestic-abuse scandal and prompting outrage from Bernie Moreno and media coverage.

Johnson's Responsibility quiet since Aug 6

House Speaker Mike Johnson is being portrayed as avoiding his basic leadership duties by refusing to confront the Max Miller abuse scandal or take a clear position on Miller. The angle argues he is shirking responsibility as misconduct swirls through his caucus.

Failed Damage Control quiet since Aug 6

Max Miller’s efforts to defend himself are backfiring badly. His CNN appearance was evasive and damaging, and his dubious attacks involving Bernie Moreno look like an attempt to rescue his own reputation.
