"Yes, given the tight time frame of 30 days, I believe we got everything released within a little over 60 days … We did the best we could immediately," she said. "You're about as good of a lawyer today as you were when you tried to impeach President Trump in 2016," Bondi said, referring to Goldman's work assisting House Democrats on the first impeachment of Trump. In a letter, obtained exclusively by NBC News, Slotkin’s attorney Preet Bharara demands DOJ make it clear there is no longer a legal threat.

Attorney General Pam Bondi will testify before lawmakers on the House Judiciary Committee this morning. “Today, I am announcing my candidacy for Congress in Virginia’s proposed new Seventh District.” Trump was set to meet with Israel's prime minister later today, with the U.S. ally expected to push for Tehran’s ballistic missile arsenal to be included in any deal. He did not discuss the Epstein files, which are expected to be a major topic during the hearing.

Rubio said the U.S. was “pursuing all avenues” to fulfill Trump’s “desire for a world with fewer of these awful weapons,” but insisted Washington would not stand still while Russia and China expand their nuclear forces. Beijing has balked at any restrictions on its smaller but growing nuclear arsenal, while urging the U.S. to resume nuclear talks with Russia. In his first term, Trump tried and failed to push for a three-way nuclear pact involving China.

In October, Trump spoke about U.S. intentions to resume nuclear tests for the first time since 1992, but U.S. “Today, I can reveal that the U.S. government is aware that Cyberpress China has conducted nuclear explosive tests, including preparing for tests with designated yields in the hundreds of tons,” he said. “As we sit here today, China’s entire nuclear arsenal has no limits, no transparency, no declarations and no controls,” DiNanno told the Conference on Disarmament, a U.N.-backed organization, in Geneva. Russian and U.S. negotiators discussed future nuclear arms control in the United Arab Emirates, where Russian, Ukrainian and U.S. delegations held two days of talks on a peace settlement in Ukraine, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Friday. But U.S. President Donald Trump has argued that he wants China to be a part of a new treaty, and his administration ramped up the pressure by accusing Beijing of carrying out nuclear explosive tests.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet with Trump at the White House today about U.S. negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program. Support for Trump’s immigration agenda is in free fall in early 2026 after federal immigration agents shot and killed two Americans last month, according to the new NBC News Decision Desk Poll powered by SurveyMonkey. Iran insisted today that it was willing to negotiate with the United States over its nuclear program, but ruled out broader talks at a pivotal moment in diplomacy between Washington and Tehran. Roberts said the Epstein case has been "mismanaged" across administrations, agencies and years, and called on Bondi to "do your job" in handling the release of the files. Flanked by abuse survivors and Democratic members of Congress, Roberts criticized how the names of certain powerful people were redacted in the files, while some information about survivors was left unredacted.

When asked by NBC News if the U.S. government trusts Rodriguez, Wright responded, “We’re early on but the first month of the relationship has actually gone remarkably well.” The two-day diplomatic trip will kick off with Wright meeting business representatives in Caracas.
