Although Republican Senator Lindsay Graham of South Carolina hasn't released his third-quarter numbers yet, it's likely he's breaking into a cold sweat. That's because his Democratic challenger, Jamie Harrison, raised a record $57 million in the third quarter of 2020. The deluge in cash led to an appeal by Graham to his supporters on Fox News, where he said that he 'was getting killed financially' by Harrison. Business Insider reports Harrison beat the fundraising record of then-Rep. Beto O'Rourke of Texas, who ran against Republican Ted Cruz in 2018. The most recent Quinnipiac University poll showed both Harrison and Graham tied at 48% support.
US Senator and former Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz was booed off stage during the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Wednesday, with attendees chanting "We want Trump" during his address. Despite congratulating Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump on being announced as the party's official candidate, Trump supporters hit back when Cruz encouraged voters to support Republican candidates "you trust to be faithful to the Constitution."

Bryan Betancur was one of the hundreds of those arrested for participating in the January 6th violent insurrection at the US Capitol. On probation, Betancur knew his movements were being tracked electronically, so he had asked permission to go to Washington to sell Bibles. But after the Maryland man's GPS monitor showed he was in the US Capitol during the mob attack, he was arrested. According to Newser, he was charged with entering a restricted building or grounds, unlawful activities on Capitol Grounds, and disorderly conduct. Newser reports federal court documents say Betancur belongs to several white supremacist organizations. Investigators found photos on social media of Betancur in a Proud Boys shirt while displaying a Confederate flag.
