Trump Targets Rep. Dan Newhouse for Impeachment Vote

Former President Trump endorses Jerrod Sessler in a bid to unseat one of the last Republicans who voted for his impeachment.

  • Rep. Dan Newhouse, one of two remaining House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump, faces a primary challenge from Trump-endorsed Jerrod Sessler.
  • Trump described Newhouse as a 'Weak and Pathetic RINO' and urged voters to support Sessler, whom he called 'MAGA all the way.'
  • Despite Trump's opposition, top GOP leaders like Speaker Mike Johnson and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise have shown support for Newhouse.
  • Newhouse, who won his previous election by a significant margin, finished second to Sessler in the 2024 primary, advancing both to the general election.
  • The race highlights ongoing divisions within the Republican Party over loyalty to Trump and the impeachment vote.
