Summary
As today's show begins, President Trump is holding a Cabinet meeting at Camp David. Among the participants is Todd Blanche, the acting attorney general. He wants to drop the "acting" from his title and get confirmed by the Senate.

And, rather than compromise, Trump says he'll pull the nomination for now and wait till next year. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
