Ossoff highlights support for veterans and infrastructure in rural Georgia, while Collins promotes her seniority-driven funding for housing and environmental projects in Maine. Both candidates argue that their long tenure and ability to secure specific local benefits outweigh ideological disagreements or national policy failures.

Ossoff’s Natalie Harp remark exposes the gender-politics double standard

Guardian columnist Arwa Mahdawi argues that Jon Ossoff’s jab at Natalie Harp highlights lingering misogyny in political discourse, noting conservatives’ defense of Harp often centers on gender rather than conduct while treating her as a controversial figure tied to Trump. The piece frames the debate as less about hostility to a woman and more about power, professionalism, and how gender shapes coverage. It also touches on Trump’s attacks on a female journalist and briefly rounds up other items in the week’s Patriarchy column, including New York’s Parents’ Night Out and ongoing humanitarian and geopolitical crises.

Security-clearance questions hit Trump's aide Natalie Harp

The White House reportedly allowed Natalie Harp, a close Trump aide, to work for about a year without security clearance after she refused to file forms; clearance was granted only after White House counsel raised the issue and Trump intervened. Critics warn of national security risks from close aides operating without proper vetting, while the White House defends her clearance. The controversy follows Sen. Ossoff's critique of Harp's proximity to Trump on national-stage matters.
