Pam Bondi, President Donald Trump's attorney general said Sunday the president would "probably" leave the White House after his second term is completed.
But she left the door slightly open toward him serving another four years, telling "Fox News Sunday," "I think he's going to be finished probably after this term," and saying it would be a "heavy lift" to change the Constitution to allow Trump to serve another four years.
Meanwhile, Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced Saturday that he was revoking all visas to South Sudanese passport holders "due to the failure of South Sudan's transitional government to accept the return of its repatriated citizens in a timely manner."
Trump set to unveil sweeping 'reciprocal' tariffs on US trading partners
President Donald Trump on Wednesday will unveil what are expected to be broad-based "reciprocal tariffs" on imports as part of his "America First" agenda.
It's a moment months in the making for the president, who has repeatedly billed it as "Liberation Day" from dependence on foreign goods -- but is also a significant political gamble as economist fear moves could cause the economy to slide into a recession and markets seesawed ahead of Wednesday's announcement, slated for 4 p.m. ET, after the markets end trading.
Federal agencies roll out buyout offers, separate from 'Fork in the Road': Sources
Two months after the initial "Fork in the Road" emails were sent to federal employees across the government, numerous agencies have begun rolling out independent, agency-specific deferred resignation programs -- separate from the DOGE-led effort that sparked court challenges and outrage from critics, according to emails and sources with knowledge of the plans.

Last week, the Department of Defense announced its own DRP, offering civilian employees the opportunity to resign with full pay and benefits through Sept. 30.
Over the last few days, other agencies have begun offering similar programs, including the Department of Energy, the General Services Administration, the Small Business Administration, the Department of Transportation, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, according to internal emails reviewed by ABC News.
A letter to HUD employees this week announcing its program, calling it "DPR 2," acknowledged that employees were skeptical of the "validity" of the initial rollout of the deferred resignation program given it was during Congress' budget negotiations, which prevented some from participating.
Agencies are setting different deadlines to accept the offers -- the Department of Transportation set a deadline of just before midnight on April 7, HUD is giving employees until April 11 and GSA is giving employees until April 18.

Mexico will respond to Trump tariffs later this week, Sheinbaum says
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said during her daily press conference Tuesday that Mexico will give its answer to Trump’s tariffs on Thursday or Friday.
"Our response to the tariff situation that may arise, we have to wait because we continue to hold dialogues," Sheinbaum said in Spanish. "It is the Mexico Plan, a plan to strengthen the national economy."
"It is not a conflict with the United States, but a strengthening of the national economy," she added. "We are always open to the world."
