GOP senators place holds over tax credit guidance
Grassley, who recently engaged in a heated back-and-forth with Trump over the handling of judicial picks, announced his move to place the holds in the congressional record Friday. 'Today, I placed a hold on three Department of the Treasury nominees,' he said in the record, specifically naming Trump's picks for the department's general counsel, assistant secretary and undersecretary. The Iowa Republican added that while the 'big, beautiful, bill' recently passed by Congress allowed for wind and solar companies to continue to get tax credits if they begin construction of their projects in the next year, the Treasury Department 'is expected to issue rules and regulations implementing the agreed upon phase-out of the wind and solar credits by August 18, 2025.' 'Until I can be certain that such rules and regulations adhere to the law and congressional intent, I intend to continue to object to the consideration of these Treasury nominees,' Grassley said. Sen. John Curtis (R-Utah) is also placing a hold on the same nominees — Brian Morrissey Jr., Francis Brooke and Jonathan McKernan — for the same reason, a source familiar told The Hill. After legislation to terminate the tax credits was passed, Trump signed an executive order that directed the Treasury to take a strict approach to limit which projects are eligible while they're still active.

Schwarzenegger ready to fight Newsom on redistricting
Now, the fight has returned to his home state, as Newsom aims to redraw California's U.S. House maps before the midterm elections to offset a similar Republican-led effort unfolding in Texas. Since such a move would undo the constitutional language added by the Schwarzenegger amendments, it would require voter approval. Newsom said today he is 'very' confident he can secure the two-thirds legislative supermajority he would need to put the question on a November special-election ballot. Schwarzenegger is preparing to take a starring role in a 'No' campaign, reuniting many of the forces that came together in 2008 to pass Prop 11 (which created the commission for California legislative maps) and in 2010 for Prop 20 (which extended its authority to congressional maps). Several of the leading outside groups that gave good-government ballast to the earlier efforts — including the League of Women Voters and California Common Cause — are challenging Newsom's proposal. Philanthropist Charles Munger Jr., the most significant benefactor to the redistricting measures, began last month to commission polls and focus groups as he assembles a team for another ballot campaign, POLITICO reported last week. Munger, the son of Warren Buffett's business partner, emerged as one of the California Republican Party's leading funders during Schwarzenegger's governorship. Schwarzenegger was first elected upon the 2003 recall of Gov. Gray Davis and went on to win a full term in 2006. After leaving government and returning to acting, he has remained involved in politics on a few issues that advisers say he considers central to his legacy, including climate change and independent redistricting. His Netflix action comedy 'FUBAR' is currently in its second season. Schwarzenegger has also emerged as a prominent antagonist of President Donald Trump, whom he called 'un-American' while endorsing Kamala Harris in last year's election. A redistricting campaign could find the two former 'Celebrity Apprentice' hosts campaigning alongside one another, as Trump argues a Democratic gerrymander would be a threat to Republican dominance and Schwarzenegger argues for the integrity of a nonpartisan process. 'It's too early right now for him to fully unleash the standard Arnold gerrymandering stump speech,' Ketchell said. 'But it'll come.' This reporting first appeared in California Playbook PM.

Redistricting reprisals: From the Politics Desk
Welcome to the online version of From the Politics Desk, an evening newsletter that brings you the NBC News Politics team's latest reporting and analysis from the White House, Capitol Hill and the campaign trail. Happy Monday, readers! In today's edition, NBC News reporters in Austin, Boston, Chicago and Washington bring you the latest from the redistricting standoff in Texas, after Democrats fled the state to deny Republicans a quorum to move forward with legislation. Then, our team in Washington digs into the fallout from President Donald Trump's dismissal of the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. — Scott Bland Redistricting clash escalates in Texas after Democrats scatter, denying state House a quorum By Ben Kamisar, Natasha Korecki, Ryan Chandler and Adam Edelman The Texas state House briefly reconvened this afternoon amid a nationally watched clash over the GOP majority's plan to redraw the state's congressional lines, with Republican lawmakers voting to approve civil arrest warrants targeting the dozens of Democrats who fled the state, blocking Republicans from proceeding with the plan. The bulk of the 50-plus Democrats who left the state are in Illinois, where they've been welcomed by Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker. Others are in Boston and in Albany, New York, where Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul, in response to Texas, is pushing for a change in state law to allow redistricting in future years. There, beyond the reach of the state sergeant-at-arms and the Texas Department of Public Safety, the warrants may have little practical effect. But back home, the Democrats face mounting fines, and Republican Gov. Greg Abbott is threatening to boot the Democratic lawmakers from office or send law enforcement to force them to return to the state. Because House business requires a quorum, 51 out of the state's 62 Democratic House members can, by remaining out of state, prevent the Republican-led state House from moving forward with legislation. The absences deprived the House of its quorum, a reality confirmed quickly after legislators gaveled in this afternoon. Republican Speaker Dustin Burrows admonished the dozens of Democrats who fled the state as having 'abandoned their post and turned their backs on the constituents they swore to represent.' Democrats have decried Republicans' redistricting move as a power play and criticized them for moving on the redistricting bill before having responded legislatively to the devastating floods this summer that killed more than 100 people in Kerr County, outside San Antonio. Today, Burrows shot back by arguing that Democrats are delaying their ability to move on other legislative priorities, like addressing the floods. Democratic state Rep. Ann Johnson of Houston, speaking yesterday evening after she arrived at a news conference at a strip mall about 30 miles west of Chicago, said the redistricting bill is happening only because Trump is 'afraid of the electorate next November.' By Jonathan Allen, Katherine Doyle and Peter Nicholas White House officials began the week scrambling to find a permanent replacement after President Donald Trump fired Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner Erika McEntarfer on Friday, following a weaker-than-expected July jobs report and drastic downward revisions of employment for the prior two months. Steve Bannon, a senior White House adviser in Trump's first term who is influential with the MAGA wing of the GOP, is pushing hard for E.J. Antoni, the chief economist at the conservative Heritage Foundation. Antoni, a contributor to the Project 2025 policy rubric, has been a longtime skeptic of BLS data. On Bannon's podcast last week, Antoni called for McEntarfer to be fired shortly before Trump pulled the trigger. In an interview with NBC News this afternoon, Antoni said he had not been contacted by anyone in the White House about the job. West Wing officials are 'still running traps' on candidates for the Senate-confirmed position, one White House aide said. The White House did not return a request for comment on whether Antoni is under consideration. Trump yesterday said that he plans to announce a pick in the next three or four days. 'It's going to have to be somebody that has tremendous credibility and experience,' said a senior White House official who noted that Trump would likely listen to the thoughts of Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett and Stephen Miran, the chair of the National Economic Council. Hiring such a person could potentially be a challenge for Trump. In ousting McEntarfer, he baselessly claimed that jobs numbers are subject to political manipulation — 'RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad,' he said — raising the specter that a new commissioner would not release numbers that made Trump look bad. 'I find it so hard to believe that your average person hears Trump fired someone because he claimed that they manipulated data and whoever he's replaced them with is going to produce trustworthy data,' Kathryn Anne Edwards, an independent economic consultant and host of a podcast called The Optimist, said.
