Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:
Trump’s Republican Party and Biden’s G7 Visit:
Former President Donald Trump visited Capitol Hill for the first time since the Jan. 6 attack, meeting with Republican lawmakers, seeking to shore up support for his political agenda, ahead of a possible return to the White House. Meanwhile, his House GOP allies took aim at the Justice Department, voting to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress.
President Joe Biden is in Italy attending the annual G7 conference, days after his son Hunter Biden was convicted on three felony charges.
