Graham offers Europe-friendly carveout to Russia sanctions bill

Sen. Lindsey Graham plans to amend his crippling Russia sanctions bill to exempt countries that help Ukraine's defense against Russia, he told Semafor on Wednesday. After senators heard from countries worried about being caught up in 500% sanctions if they trade with Russia — a major energy producer in Europe — Graham said he plans to change the bill to omit levies on countries that have helped the fight against Russian President Vladimir Putin. 'Why don't we carve out for countries who are helping Ukraine? If you're providing military economic assistance to Ukraine, you get a carveout. So China, if you don't want to get sanctioned, help Ukraine … that makes sense to me,' Graham said in an interview. Graham said he spoke to President Donald Trump about his effort on Tuesday night. He declined to say what Trump thought of his latest proposal: 'I'll let him speak for himself.' White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said this week the decision about sanctions is Trump's to make, signaling possible problems with the bill. Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., indicated this week the Senate could move this month on a sanctions bill. Graham was more firm, predicting action on his plan in June 'unless there's some breakthrough.' 'I appreciate what President Trump has done. He's gone the extra mile … Putin's uninterested. He's gonna have another invasion soon. We've got a limited time to act,' Graham said. 'Let's put these sanctions out. Let's increase the cost to China and the other bad actors,' he added. 'It's the only way to keep this war from widening.' GOP leaders are closely consulting with the White House, even as many rank-and-file Republicans are tired of waiting for Trump's green light. Despite Leavitt's cool response, it's possible the Senate could cobble together a veto-proof majority for Graham's bill. A Ukrainian delegation is briefing senators today, per POLITICO.

Republicans target the CBO as part of a larger offensive against independent obstacles

The American Bar Association, which has scrutinized federal judicial nominations since 1948, determined that many of Donald Trump's picks were unqualified for the bench. Given that feedback, the White House had a decision to make: The president and his team could choose better nominees; they could encourage senators to ignore the ABA's independent assessments; or they could cut off ABA detailed access to judicial nominees' records. Last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi chose Door #3, slamming the American Bar Association for making assessments the White House didn't like and cutting off the ABA's access to nonpublic information about would-be jurists. Around the same time, the Trump administration also signaled that it was dissatisfied with the nation's leading medical journals for publishing scientific findings the White House also didn't like, reportedly leading the Department of Veterans Affairs to order scientists not to publish in journals without approval from presidential appointees. While these stories are notable in their own right, together they reflect a larger offensive against entities that many Republicans see as independent obstacles. But to fully appreciate the scope of the offensive, consider the partisan campaign against the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. Reminded of the CBO's recent analysis of the Republicans' domestic policy megabill, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters that 'the Congressional Budget Office has been historically wrong,' adding, 'I don't think many people know this, there hasn't been a single staffer in the entire Congressional Budget Office that has contributed to a Republican since the year 2000.' A Washington Post fact-check report gave Leavitt's claim the dreaded 'Four Pinocchios,' while noting, '[T]he White House's campaign against the Congressional Budget Office, the nonpartisan agency that vets the cost of major legislation, is veering into the ridiculous.' That's an easy assessment to agree with. The CBO's current director worked in George W. Bush's Treasury Department, has donated to Republican candidates and, perhaps most importantly, was chosen for his current position by Republican lawmakers. The idea that he's overseeing some left-wing operation hellbent on tarnishing GOP proposals is plainly silly. As for the idea that CBO scores have 'historically' been 'wrong,' the office's track record on forecasting future budget deficits has been pretty impressive in recent years. And yet the Republican offensive against the CBO and its credibility has been relentless as the party has tried desperately to advance its inaptly named 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act,' with House Speaker Mike Johnson and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent helping to lead the charge with claims that have immediately collapsed under scrutiny. Even the president himself joined the pile-on last week, claiming that the CBO is 'inspired' and 'controlled' by Democrats, which is plainly false. To bolster his point, Trump pointed to a recent CBO report on economic growth forecasts that was not, in reality, released by the CBO. (Trump apparently confused the CBO and the Joint Committee on Taxation.) If recent history is any guide, these partisan tactics won't end anytime soon. But for the public, the fact that too many Republicans see independent sources of information as obstacles worthy of attack speaks volumes about the quality of the party's ideas.

Comer demands interviews with former top Biden aides as part of probe into mental acuity

House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-Ky.) is expanding his probe into former President Biden's mental acuity by demanding interviews with some of his former top aides. Comer on Wednesday sent letters to former chief-of-staff Ron Klain, senior adviser Anita Dunn, former counselor Steve Ricchetti, and aides Michael Donilon and Bruce Reed. 'The scope of your responsibilities—both official and otherwise—and personal interactions within the Oval Office cannot go without investigation. If White House staff carried out a strategy lasting months or even years to hide the chief executive's condition—or to perform his duties—Congress may need to consider a legislative response,' Comer wrote in a letter to Klain. While the letters demand a transcribed interview, they also ask the recipient if 'you will require a subpoena to compel your attendance.' The Hill reached out to Klain and a representative for Dunn for comment but was not immediately able to reach the other aides for comment. Comer during the last Congress had requested interviews with three other White House aides, as well as Biden's physician. New books, including 'Original Sin: President Biden's Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,' have reignited debate about Biden's mental acuity while in office and whether he experienced cognitive decline. Since President Trump took office, the GOP has taken a number of steps focusing on Biden. The White House confirmed Tuesday that Pardon Attorney Ed Martin would be reviewing Biden's pardons for his family members, as well as some other clemencies granted during his final days in office. And the Justice Department last month released the full tapes of Biden's interview with special counsel Robert Hur, one in which the attorney said Biden appeared to have memory lapses. While president, Biden released the full transcript of the conversation. Biden, through a spokesperson, has rejected claims he did not have the mental acuity to manage the presidency. 'We continue to await anything that shows where Joe Biden had to make a presidential decision or where national security was threatened or where he was unable to do his job,' a spokesperson said in response to the book release.
