California Governor Gavin Newsom is facing a recall attempt fueled by sharp criticism of his handling of devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. Opponents argue his leadership has been marked by a series of failures, with increased living costs, rising crime, and inadequate wildfire management. The recall effort, spearheaded by Randy Economy of "Saving California," aims to gather 1.3 million signatures in five months.

The Senate confirmed Tulsi Gabbard as President Trumps Director of National Intelligence, despite strong partisan opposition. The 52-48 vote reflected Trumps continued influence over the GOP, with only Sen. Mitch McConnell voting against her.
