- Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Wednesday he wasn't worried about his nomination for attorney general after Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) said she would oppose him.
"No, I'm not worried about what's going to happen over the next couple of days," he told reporters.
Mr. Blanche is currently one vote shy of winning enough support for confirmation after securing the backing of Sen. John Curtis (R-UT).
Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), who's locked in a tight reelection battle, announced Tuesday she would oppose Mr. Blanche, saying she was concerned about the Justice Department becoming "increasingly political."
"Mr. Blanche has taken several actions that have further eroded the Department's independence, and that is the basis for my vote to oppose his confirmation," she said in a statement.
Mr. Blanche can afford to lose just two Republican votes given Sen. Mitch McConnell's (R-KY) extended absence.

- Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said President Trump would be within his rights to fire Jeanine Pirro as U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia after she dropped charges in the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool vandalism case.
"Hypothetically, if the president chose to fire a United States attorney, it turns out he's allowed to do that because he's the president of the United States," he told reporters at a press conference Wednesday.
"And, by the way, if President Trump wanted to fire anybody within his administration, he understands he has the power to do that. So, when he makes a decision about whether to fire a U.S. attorney or anybody else, that's his."
President Trump told reporters Tuesday night he hasn't decided whether to keep the former Fox News host in the job, saying she was "totally wrong" to drop the case and that he was "not happy" with her.
"I haven't made a determination," he said.

"As bitter and as divisive and as cynical as the campaign against us might have been, I want us to realize that there is so much more that unites us now," he said at a press conference in Detroit.
Mr. El-Sayed said the general election campaign against his Republican opponent, former Rep. Mike Rogers, would prove even more divisive, noting attack ads that have already been running in the state.
"You know, they think they want to use my whole name against me," he said. "Mike, listen man, if you can't say the name — it's Abdulrahman — keep the name out your damn mouth."
He said attacks on his name were the "only play they got," calling it "B.S. politics coming in to divide us."

- President Trump said Tuesday night he hasn't decided whether to keep Jeanine Pirro as U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia after she dropped charges against David Hearn, a former Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
"I haven't made a determination," he told reporters when asked whether he would keep the former Fox News host in the position.
After the president blamed vandalism for the reflecting pool's post-renovation troubles, Ms. Pirro charged Mr. Hearn, who had reached into the water to touch a piece of floating paint, with felony vandalism.
"This is not only a priority for the president, but for myself," Ms. Pirro said when announcing the charges in early July. "We will prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Hearn willfully destroyed property."
But on Friday, Ms. Pirro filed a motion to dismiss the case, saying the damage was "the result of a botched installation and not vandalism" and that...

"Instead of serving the American people and upholding the rule of law and the Constitution, Mr. Blanche has aided and abetted the most corrupt administration in the history of the United States," he said ahead of a committee vote on advancing Mr. Blanche's nomination.
Sen. Durbin also argued the controversial $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund could easily be revived despite Mr. Blanche providing formal documents saying it was dead at the request of two Republican senators who had threatened to derail his nomination without those assurances.

Sens.

- Description
- John A. Jenkins has been a journalist most of his life in the city of his birth, Washington, DC. He says he's never known another summer like the one 55 years ago. His book, "Summer of '71: Five Months That Changed America," focuses on well-known names from that era: Daniel Ellsberg, Neil Sheehan, Henry Kissinger, Sarah Weddington, and Angela Davis. John Jenkins writes that "each main character has an important back story that sets them up for the summer of '71 to come." He also writes: "My purpose here is to show the drama, the pain, and the hope of a summer when America faced some of its greatest challenges at home and abroad." This is part one of a two-part interview with Mr. Jenkins.

- Trump: Pirro "choked" on reflecting pool case

- Description
- President Trump said Monday he was very disappointed in U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro and that she "folded like an umbrella," after the Justice Department dropped its case charging a former Olympian with vandalism of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
"Franky, I think she choked, because the judge was really vicious," the president said of Ms. Pirro. "Instead of going after the people that did it, the judge went after her and went after her department. And I guess she choked, I don't know what the hell happened."
Last week, the Justice Department dismissed the felony charge on the former Olympian, linking the damage on the reflecting pool to flawed work by a contractor, rather than vandalism.
On Monday, prosecutors also dropped three more misdemeanor cases related to the pool damage, further weakening the president's longstanding claims that the damage was the result of vandalism.

- President Trump said talks with Iran are ongoing, even as tensions remain high amid the U.S. conflict with Iran on Monday.
"For some reason, when they're talking, they don't like saying that they're talking," the president told reporters. "Even though we spent hours and hours together talking."
Trump said the U.S. was prepared to carry out a major military strike on Sunday before holding off.
"We were going to hit them very hard yesterday--harder than any attack since World War Two," he said.
The president said the latest talks came at Iran's request and were backed by countries including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar.
"Many countries called--they all wanted to give this a last chance," Trump said. "This is the last chance for them to sign a good document."

- President Trump said Monday that oil companies like Chevron and ExxonMobil have made "too much money," on the high oil prices amid the U.S. — Iran war.
"I don't like it," the president told reporters at the Oval Office. "Based on a shortage, they're making too much money."
Chevron recently announced a record quarterly profit of $12.1 billion, while ExxonMobil reported $14.5 billion in earnings, roughly double what it reported during the same last-year period.
"Chevron, too much money. ExxonMobil, too much, too much money," he said.
Meanwhile, disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz have pushed U.S. gasoline prices to average around $4, compared to nearly $3, prior to the war in Iran.
The president called for the companies to pay the American people back, saying, "they ought to give some of that back to the public and they better cut the retail price.

- Department of Homeland Security Secretary (DHS) Markwayne Mullin told National Governors Association (NGA) Chair and Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt (R), that immigration reform is currently impossible during the NGA meeting in Oklahoma City on Saturday.
"Is immigration reform possible? No," Secretary Mullin said. "Do you really need immigration reform? Yes, you do, but can you work with the system we have? Yes."
The DHS Secretary argued that the U.S. needs immigration reform, but the political divide has made it impossible, calling for policy change on permanent work permits to address labor shortages.
"If we're looking to grow our economy, then we need to look at making more permanent solutions on this," he said.
Secretary Mullin's post on X, shortly after the meeting, "NO amnesty for illegal aliens," sparked a wave of backlash from conservative critics, who argued that the post contradicted his earlier comments on immigration.
