Summary

New evidence in the special counsel’s criminal investigation of Donald Trump’s handling of classified documents may undercut the president’s key line of defense. Then, the House just agreed to refer a resolution to expel Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) to the Ethics Committee. Republican leaders dodge a direct vote on whether to boot the GOP lawmaker as he faces criminal charges in connection with his pattern of lies. Also, one of the nation’s most conservative courts weighs the fate of abortion medication as state legislatures in North Carolina and South Carolina take new action to ban the procedure. Plus, Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Rep. Michael McCaul (R-Texas) joins to discuss new information in the Pentagon leaks case.
