Rep. Max Miller, R-Ohio, publicly denied allegations of abuse made by his ex-wife, stating on Sunday that there is "no evidence" to support the claims.
Miller, who served as a White House adviser during President Donald Trump's first term, addressed the accusations via a live post on X, formerly Twitter. He asserted that "every single one of these allegations were already investigated" and that no court or agency has substantiated them.
The congressman stated his intention to release communications he believes demonstrate his innocence via a public Dropbox folder, adding, "I have nothing to hide."
Allegations against Miller have resurfaced amid an intensifying legal dispute with his ex-wife, who is the daughter of Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio. Democrats have pointed to the allegations as a potential vulnerability for Miller in a northeast Ohio congressional district he won with just over 51% of the vote two years ago.
In the past week, calls for Miller's resignation have been made, and a congressional ethics investigation has been requested. Democrats have also suggested directing more resources towards Miller's opponent, union ironworker Brian Poindexter, in the upcoming fall election. Miller has denied the abuse allegations and filed defamation lawsuits against his ex-wife and another accuser.
