Breaking: Thanks to today’s impeachment testimony, we now know White House officials deleted key details out of the record of Trump’s Ukraine call before they released it.

It was never a transcript. It was a cover-up.

With exactly 7 days out, a pickup of 7-10 seats in the House and 2-6 seats in the Senate seems the most likely scenario. #VALeg

CA-25: George Papadopoulos just filed for a House run in Rep. Katie Hill's district

A one-time campaign foreign policy adviser to President Donald Trump who served 12 days in jail for lying to the FBI has filed paperwork to run for the seat occupied by resigning California Democratic Rep. Katie Hill.

George Papadopoulos, who confirmed he was considering a House run after being released from jail in December, filed a statement of candidacy with the Federal Elections Commission on Tuesday. The document lists his party affiliation as Republican.

If Papadopoulos decides to launch a formal campaign, he will face stiff competition.

California’s 25th District is one of seven in the Golden State that Democrats flipped in 2018. After winning a competitive primary, Hill went on to defeat former GOP Rep. Steve Knight by 9 points.
