Trump grapples with maintaining political relevancy

Former President Trump has been working to maintain leadership in the Republican Party since his defeat in the 2020 election. However, over the past few weeks, he's seen several political fires pop up, including two big developments from the Justice Department. Sarah Westwood, Washington Examiner political and investigative reporter, joins "Red & Blue" host Elaine Quijano to discuss how this could affect Mr. Trump and his party moving forward.

First flight of Afghan evacuees lands in U.S.

A plane carrying over 200 Afghans, mostly interpreters and their families, landed at Washington's Dulles International Airport early Friday morning. It's the first evacuation flight of what the U.S. military has dubbed Operation Allies Refuge, which aims to relocate Afghans who helped the military during the 20-year-long war and are now at risk of reprisals as American troops withdraw. CBS News correspondent Christina Ruffini joins CBSN AM to discuss.

Trump doubles down on false election claims

Former President Trump doubled down on his baseless claims surrounding the 2020 election during a rally in Arizona over the weekend. His remarks came on the heels of an Associated Press investigation that identified fewer than 200 cases of potential voter fraud from the presidential election in the state, where President Biden defeated Mr. Trump by more than 10,000 votes. Jim Nintzel, executive editor of the Tucson Weekly, joins CBSN to discuss.

New details on FBI's Kavanaugh investigation

The FBI revealed new information on its sexual misconduct investigation into Justice Brett Kavanaugh before his confirmation to the Supreme Court. In a letter sent to two Democratic senators, the agency said it received more than 4,500 tips on the then-judge in 2018, but only the "relevant" ones were sent to the Trump White House, and it's not clear what happened after that. Kavanaugh has repeatedly denied allegations of sexual misconduct. Jan Wolfe, legal affairs correspondent for Reuters, joins CBSN AM to discuss.
