Escalation: Sen. Bernie Moreno brands Miller dangerous
On Aug. 2, 2026, U.S. Sen. Bernie Moreno said Rep. Max Miller should not serve in Congress, calling him a danger to Moreno’s daughter, Emily. Miller is Moreno’s former son-in-law.
Moreno highlighted Emily Moreno’s allegations that, during their marriage, Miller scalded her with hot water, hit her, and threatened her. Miller has denied the allegations.
The remarks came as Miller, a Republican from Ohio, faced growing calls to drop out of his re-election race or resign. He had planned an Aug. 2 announcement as a deadline approached for potentially withdrawing from the ballot.
Later on Aug. 2, Miller said he will continue his re-election bid despite the scrutiny. Calls for him to leave Congress continued.
