Another Florida Swamp Monster. Meet Rep. Cory Mills.

Cory Mills has stolen valor, assault allegations, and $85,000 in unpaid rent. Mike Johnson calls him a "faithful colleague." Welcome to the party of family values.

Meet Rep. Cory Mills—the Florida congressman with a Bronze Star the Army says he didn’t earn, assault allegations, revenge porn threats, and $85,000 in unpaid rent. When asked about Mills’ restraining order for threatening his ex-girlfriend, Speaker Mike Johnson called it “things outside life” and praised him as a “faithful colleague.”

This is the party of family values: where stolen valor becomes campaign strategy, domestic violence isn’t “serious,” and threatening women gets you re-elected by 13 points. Welcome to the Republican Party’s future—where Trump’s acolytes aren’t just carrying water, they’re auditioning to be his successor.

A searing exposé of political hypocrisy, Florida-style corruption, and what “family values” really means in modern Washington.
