Coming up on Washington Week:
Trump’s legal woes worsen: In the clearest sign yet that former President Donald Trump is likely to face criminal charges, federal prosecutors have informed his legal team he is a target of an investigation into his handling of classified information. Meanwhile, a second grand jury in Florida is hearing evidence on possible crimes committed in the documents case there.
Trump attacked by GOP 2024 rivals & House Republican revolt: Former Vice President Mike Pence and former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie officially entered the race for the GOP 2024 presidential nomination by taking aim at Trump, their one-time ally. And as Republican presidential candidates try to persuade voters it’s time for new leadership in Washington, House GOP hardliners have halted work in the House in retaliation against Speaker Kevin McCarthy for his role in negotiating the debt ceiling deal.
