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."

Denmark will object to any claims on Greenland, foreign minister says

Denmark's minister of foreign affairs Lars Løkke Rasmussen met with Secretary of State Marco Rubio Thursday and reiterated that Greenland was not for sale.

"It has amounted to a situation where it's not within the limits of international law. It's a mountainous situation where I can only describe it as an attack on Danish sovereignty of the Kingdom of Denmark. And I made that very, very clear," Rasmussen said.

Under usual circumstances, there would be no shortage of contentious topics to discuss: support for Ukraine, defense budgeting and Russia. But now, Rubio is on the frontlines for any private complaints about President Donald Trump's tariffs and other ongoing fights with European leaders, like Trump's desire to acquire Greenland.

So far, Rubio has been avoiding addressing these topics head on even though he met with the foreign minister of Denmark, which counts Greenland among its territories. He ignored shouted questions about Greenland ahead of the meeting.

"The Trump Tariff Tax is the largest peacetime tax hike in U.S. history. These Tariffs are nearly 10x the size of those imposed during the Trump-Pence Administration and will cost American families over $3,500 per year," Pence said on Wednesday night without citing any specific source.

Pence has often held off from criticizing Trump by name since he left office. However, his organization, Advancing American Freedom, had already been criticizing tariffs from the new administration.
