Three Republican lawmakers must pay the legal fees of a Democratic foe after filing what a judge called a meritless lawsuit against her.

Former President Donald Trump is actively organizing an alternative to legitimate government power—a large, violent mob mobilized to intimidate government officials and thwart their objectives.

At least two Arizona lawmakers say they were subpoenaed by the FBI for communications regarding the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.  

A Yuma Democratic lawmaker is asking a judge to toss a defamation lawsuit filed against her by two Republican legislators and a member of Congress.

Freshly cleared of violations by the chair of the House Ethics Committee, Rep. Mark Finchem is now turning the tables on some of his accusers and political foes.

President Trump issued pardons or commutations to 143 people on his last full day in office January 19, including a former Arizona congressman who served two years in prison after a 2013 conviction related to a land swap deal.
