An AP news roundup reports President Donald Trump’s threat to advance a compensation fund while seeking support for Todd Blanche’s attorney general nomination, and growing political pressure on Rep. Max Miller over abuse allegations. It also covers international conflicts, migration, and other breaking news.
Trump said he would keep Todd Blanche as acting attorney general and advance the “Anti-Weaponization Fund” if Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis did not support Blanche’s nomination. Sen. Chuck Grassley rescheduled a committee vote, while the White House sought votes for the nominee. The roundup also reports that Trump’s company planned to sell traders early access to his social media posts, raising questions about private gain and market access.
Another report describes mounting pressure on Rep. Max Miller over domestic abuse allegations that have been public for years. Democrats called for his resignation and requested an ethics investigation; Miller denied the allegations and filed defamation lawsuits against his ex-wife and another accuser. The roundup also covers a threatened escalation of U.S. strikes on Iran, deadly violence in Ukraine and Idaho, and migration events in Spain.
