Former President Trump’s immense sway over the Republican Party is once again on the line

Five states, from the Midwest to the West coast, are holding primaries.

On the ballot in Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri and Washington are high profile Senate and House nomination showdowns.

We’re keeping an eye on the three House Republicans who voted to impeach President Trump over the deadly Jan. 6, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

They are now fighting for their political lives as they face Trump-backed challengers.

It’s essentially a proxy war between Trump and former Vice President Mike Pence.

Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., a member of the so-called “Squad” of diverse, progressive House Democrats, also faces a primary challenge.

Washington D.C. has been under pressure to ban the popular Chinese-owned social media app TikTok.

TikTok users could soon find that the popular social media service is either under new ownership or could be outright banned in the U.S.

Calls are growing louder from many lawmakers and national security hawks to ban TikTok, over fears the app could censure content, influence users, and give Americans’ personal data to Beijing.
