Sen. Bernie Moreno called on Rep. Max Miller to resign, accusing him of abusive and dangerous behavior; Miller denied the allegations during a livestream. The public dispute stems from their family’s divorce and custody battle and has drawn in Ohio politics.
Moreno said Miller should not serve in the House and voiced concern for his daughter and granddaughter. Miller denied allegations of domestic and child abuse, said no court or agency had substantiated them, and alleged that his ex-wife had mental health issues. The article reports that Miller has not been charged with a crime related to the dispute.
The dispute unfolded publicly as Ohio’s deadline to replace congressional candidates on the ballot approached. Emily Moreno’s attorneys had sought restraining orders against Miller, while her spokesman accused Miller of trying to protect his political career. An attorney for Emily declined to engage with the allegations, and Fox News said it sought additional comment from both lawmakers’ offices.
