- The House voted 427–1 to compel the Justice Department to release the Jeffrey Epstein files after Trump initially resisted, and the measure now moves to the Senate.
- Senate Republicans rejected Trump’s pushes to end the filibuster and scrap the blue‑slip tradition, and the Senate voted to rescind his tariffs on Brazil and to do the same on Canada.
- Supreme Court justices signaled skepticism about using emergency powers to impose tariffs, threatening a pillar of Trump’s trade strategy.
- Indiana Republican leaders declined a mid‑decade gerrymander sought by Trump, signaling state‑level resistance to his redistricting demands.
- Fault lines widened as Trump attacked Marjorie Taylor Greene and met skepticism from conservatives on a proposed 50‑year mortgage, while Nevada revived a case against six pardon recipients and a Georgia prosecutor reupped Trump’s election case.
