Live from NPR News in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston.
President Trump is declining to say whether Ohio Republican Congressman Max Miller should resign from office.
Well, I'm not going to get involved, and that's a very sad situation.
And I know Max very well, but it's very, very sad that...
A situation like that takes place.
Miller's ex-wife has accused him of assaulting her and abusing their two-year-old daughter.
Miller denies the allegations and says he will not end his re-election campaign.
Several Republicans are urging him to leave Congress and withdraw from the race.
Republican Senator Mitch McConnell was discharged
from a rehab facility on Thursday and will continue recovering from his home.
Sylvia Goodman from Kentucky Public Radio reports McConnell has been on medical leave for nearly two months.
In a short statement, McConnell says he will continue a, quote,
intensive regimen of physical therapy from home on the advice of his doctors.
Speculation and conspiracy theories about the 84-year-old senator's health have crowded social media.
Public officials, including Democratic Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear,
have repeatedly called on him to be more transparent about his fitness to serve.
McConnell has not made any public appearances since his June hospitalization
and has missed more than 50 Senate roll call votes.
He said he was hospitalized after falling and developed a mild case of pneumonia in the hospital.
