Donald Trump has endorsed a clean extension of FISA Section 702, urging House Republicans to unify behind Speaker Mike Johnson despite his own past claims of being targeted by the surveillance program.
Outlets across the spectrum highlight Trump's unsuccessful push for a "clean" 18-month FISA extension, with Axios describing the outcome as a "rare defeat" for the president among House Republicans. Left-leaning RawStory emphasizes Trump's "major U-turn" on a surveillance tool he previously criticized, while right-leaning Daily Caller focuses on his reported policy rift with Tulsi Gabbard over "Deep State" spy tools.
