Bondi says Trump will 'probably' leave after second term
Changing the constitution would be a "heavy lift," the attorney general says.
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."

Mike Johnson shrugs off potential price increases, calls tariffs 'common sense'
Arriving back at the Capitol from the president's tariff event in the Rose Garden, House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., told reporters that people "shouldn't doubt" Trump's plan and shrugged off concerns consumers will face higher prices.
When asked by ABC News' Jay O'Brien if the president was to blame for higher prices, Johnson responded that the public shouldn't doubt the president's vision.
Despite predicting a "rocky" beginning to the tariffs on Tuesday, Johnson called the president's reciprocal tariffs "common sense" and said he believes people will get on board.
"I think most American people understand it's not fair what's been done to the United States, and you needed a president strong enough to call that out and to do a reset," he said.

Democratic Rep. Mark Takano spearheaded the effort to meet with McMahon on Wednesday behind closed doors.
"She came down here to upstage the news press availability, trying to give the impression that she's trying a different approach," Takano told ABC News after the event.

Trump considering final TikTok proposal Wednesday
According to a White House official, President Donald Trump is holding a meeting Wednesday with key administration officials who will present a deal for TikTok to the president.
This comes as the deadline looms for TikTok's Chinese parent company to sell the app or face a ban in the U.S. The bipartisan bill passed last year set Jan. 19 as a deadline for the sale, then Trump signed an executive order that gave ByteDance a 75-day extension. That extension is set to expire this Saturday on April 5.
Trump has said if an agreement isn't reached by the deadline, he'd just extend it.
Over the weekend, Trump said there are a lot of "potential buyers" who are interested in TikTok, adding that he'd like to see "TikTok remain alive."
TikTok did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
