Bondi reportedly told Trump that he's named in Epstein files
The attorney general reportedly told President Donald Trump in the spring that he and many others were named in the government's files on Jeffrey Epstein. Attorney General Pam Bondi told President Donald Trump in the spring that he was named multiple times in the government's files on Jeffrey Epstein, according to reports in the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times. A White House official did not dispute the reports, telling USA TODAY the president's name is mentioned in the binders of Epstein documents that Bondi prepared for MAGA influencers in February. But the official rejected any suggestion that Trump did any wrongdoing in connection with Epstein. Bondi told the president that he and many other figures were named in the documents, according to reports from the Journal and the Times. The Journal cited "senior administration officials," while the Times cited three people familiar with the exchange. Being named in such documents doesn't mean the person broke the law. 'The fact is that the President kicked him out of his club for being a creep," said White House Communications Director Steven Cheung, referring to Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Florida. "This is nothing more than a continuation of the fake news stories concocted by the Democrats and the liberal media, just like the Obama Russiagate scandal, which President Trump was right about," Cheung said. The Justice Department didn't immediately respond to a request for comment. This story is developing and will be updated.

Higgins moves to force vote on censuring McIver after ICE facility clash
Rep. Clay Higgins (R-La.) on Wednesday moved to force a vote on a resolution to censure Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.), who faces charges resulting from a clash with officials at an immigrant detention center. The measure, which spans three pages, calls for McIver to be censured and removed from the House Homeland Security Committee. The move from Higgins came the same day the House broke for a weeks-long August recess, meaning the matter will not be dealt with until September. Under House rules, leadership must act on the resolution within two legislative days, either staging a vote on it, motioning to refer it to committee or motioning to table it. It remains unclear how Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) will handle the matter. The House has censured 28 members in its history, with the most recent being Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) in March after he shouted and waved his cane in the air during President Trump's first joint address to Congress of his second term. McIver pushed back on Higgins's resolution, calling the Louisiana Republican 'a bigot who wants to be back in the news.' 'Rs just shut down the House floor early and left to avoid confronting their president's relationship with Epstein. Now they want us to believe they're doing something when they're really running home to hide,' McIver wrote in a thread on X. 'This resolution aims to kick me off the committee that presides over the Department of Homeland Security and shame me for doing the oversight work that is my job. Good luck, Clay.' she added. McIver stands accused of assaulting law enforcement with her forearms during a chaotic clash that ensued after U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers began to arrest Newark, N.J., Mayor Ras Baraka (D) outside a New Jersey immigration detention facility in May. McIver was visiting the facility with a group of elected officials. McIver has disputed that she assaulted anyone, and footage of the scrum shows her raising her arms as she's jostled among the competing factions. The crime carries a significant penalty – as much as 16 years in prison if McIver is convicted. House Homeland Security Committee members like McIver, as well as other Democrats, have made a point of visiting detention facilities as the Trump administration seeks to increase immigration arrests after Trump promised the largest mass deportation effort in U.S. history. The Department of Homeland Security has since tried to limit lawmaker visits, something Democratic members said was designed to block oversight. Prosecutors — then led by interim U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba — received significant scrutiny for bringing charges against Baraka that they later dropped. U.S. District Judge Andre Espinosa in a Wednesday hearing said the arrest suggested a 'worrisome misstep' by the New Jersey's U.S. attorney's office, noting the 'apparent rush' in bringing the case that culminated in the government's 'embarrassing' retraction of the charge.

Trump-Obama feud erupts over Russia interference allegations
The long-simmering feud between President Trump and former President Obama erupted this week after Trump accused his predecessor of treason, a startling escalation in the fight between the two leaders. The Trump administration's barrage of attacks and document releases around the Obama administration's handling of Russian interference in the 2016 election prompted a rare public rebuke from Obama against the current Oval Office occupant. The confrontation pits two of the most powerful figures in politics, and arguably the most popular Republican and Democratic politicians in the country, against one another. For Trump and the White House, going after Obama, particularly over Russian influence in the 2016 election, is seen as a political winner and a way to unite the party amid a turbulent stretch born out of the Trump Justice Department's handling of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and files related to his criminal case. The Russia investigation has been a fixation of GOP lawmakers and members of Trump's base dating back to 2017 and has fueled distrust in the FBI and intelligence community. 'The leader of the gang was President Obama. … He's guilty. It's not a question,' Trump said Tuesday in the Oval Office. 'I like to say let's give it time. It's there. He's guilty. This was treason. This was every word you can think of.' Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's office released documents last Friday and again on Wednesday purporting to show Obama and some of his top aides misled the public about the nature of Russia's efforts to interfere in the 2016 election. Gabbard has alleged Obama officials ' manufactured intelligence ' about Russia's election interference and that Russia did not prefer Trump in that election, as the intelligence community had previously established. Obama's name was uttered roughly a dozen times at a Thursday White House press briefing, where Gabbard spoke to reporters about the latest release of documents, as contained in a House Intelligence Committee report drafted in 2017, when Republicans led the panel, and published in 2020. 'The evidence that we have found and that we have released directly points to President Obama leading the manufacturing of this intelligence assessment. There are multiple pieces of evidence and intelligence that confirm that fact,' Gabbard said, telling reporters her office was referring documents to the Justice Department for potential criminal charges. Gabbard had previously accused Obama and his White House aides of a 'treasonous conspiracy,' though on Thursday she repeatedly sidestepped questions about what specific crime Obama would have committed. Critics have panned the documents released by Gabbard as out of step with intelligence community findings and the findings of a bipartisan report from the Senate Intelligence Committee released in 2020, which both established that Russia attempted to interfere in the 2016 election and preferred Trump to win. The Obama White House said at the time Russia did not change any votes in the election. The allegations against Obama were so severe, and in the view of some Democrats so outlandish, that it elicited a rare public statement from the former president's office. 'Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response,' Obama spokesperson Patrick Rodenbush said in a statement. 'But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction. 'Nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes,' Rodenbush added. Multiple investigations have concluded that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. A 2019 report by former special counsel Robert Mueller found that Russia interfered in the election, partly through a social media campaign that favored Trump. The Senate Intelligence Committee in 2020 released a bipartisan report that also affirmed the findings of the U.S. intelligence community that Russia interfered in the 2016 election, and that the Russian government 'demonstrated a preference for candidate Trump.' Numerous Democrats have noted this week that Secretary of State Marco Rubio served on the Senate Intelligence Committee at the time. But even if the focus on Russian interference and Obama's role don't lead to criminal charges, it has the added benefit of shifting attention away, if only temporarily, from an undesirable news cycle for the White House. The Beltway has been consumed in recent weeks with stories about the case of Epstein, the sex predator who died in 2019, and calls among many of Trump's own supporters for more transparency. To the chagrin of Trump and his allies, The Wall Street Journal published a story shortly after Gabbard's White House appearance ended reporting that Attorney General Pam Bondi had informed Trump in May that his name was among many that appeared in the Epstein documents. 'He's treating his supporters like he thinks they're stupid with these lies about other presidents and every other random tangent,' said Andrew Bates, a former spokesperson in the Obama and Biden administrations. 'This is a different version of Trump because you can feel the panic behind his Epstein excuses.' In addition to being red meat for Trump's base, Obama has been a target of Trump's personal animus dating back to before he was in office. It was Trump who led the racist 'birther' conspiracy that claimed Obama was not born in the United States. Trump spent much of his first term claiming Obama 'spied' on his campaign in 2016. And the president spent part of the 2024 campaign attacking Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama over their fiery remarks at the Democratic National Convention, which portrayed Trump as a nuisance only focused on his problems. Democrats view Trump's attacks on former President Obama as returning to a tired playbook at a time when he is facing unrest from some in his own party over the Epstein case and criticisms from political rivals over the potential backlash to his key policy accomplishment. 'When you have nothing to present that's affirmative to the American people, Republicans blame Barack Obama,' House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said Wednesday. 'It's laughable.
