Host: There are new signs that the backlash over the Jeffrey Epstein saga is not going away. A vote to force the White House to release all records related to Epstein now has enough Republican support in the House. Just as that news was breaking, Mike Johnson says he's not going…
Host: Trump's DOJ is being remade in his image. Dozens of federal prosecutors have been terminated without warning and with little cause. Former DOJ officials say this sets the country on a dangerous path where the department answers not to the people, but to Trump

Reporter: The Air Force is saying they're not even sure that the B-52 was aware that there had been a potential close call. This is drawing a lot of comparisons to the crash that happened here in Washington back in January. Why wasn't that regional plane notified? A lot of…
Raju: This poll from CBS yesterday. Should the DOJ release all the information on Epstein? 89% say yes. You rarely see that in this era of polarized politics. And when you ask about how Republicans feel about this, 49% say they're dissatisfied. Typically Trump is at 90% among…

Texas State Rep @jamestalarico: I was in kindergarten and someone in school was talking about political parties. I asked my mom what we were and she was like, 'We're Democrats. Because Democrats fight for the people.' For the little guy, for working people, for people who were…
Trump is preparing to sign an executive order to restrict NIL money, limiting the earning potential for college athletes.
Texas State Rep @jamestalarico: Texas has the most extreme abortion ban in the country. We've seen the devastating consequences of it. We saw Texas women forced to wait in emergency room parking lots until they went into sepsis. We have seen women banned from using public…
Joe Rogan: They were trying to go after women that traveled to other states. Like if a woman travels to see her parents or something like that and then has a miscarriage. That to me was very creepy, that if this woman had traveled somewhere where abortion is legal and then lost…
Q: Did you order Pam Bondi to release the full files? Trump: *ignores, walks away*
The Trump administration ordered FBI agents investigating the Epstein files to "flag" any mentions of Trump, according to the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Reporter: It shows how much heat Trump feels from his base about this. The worry for the White House is that it won't satisfy them. Particularly if you're using 'pertinent' as a filter to say, 'We're only gonna release some stuff.' There will be those people who will think, what…
