DOJ returns Trump's passports as scrutiny over search continues

Agents determined the travel documents were unrelated to the search Aug. 8 for classified documents. Here's the latest.

Threats toward law enforcement were already on the rise. Then came Mar-a-Lago.

Will the search affidavit be unsealed? The Florida federal magistrate who signed off on the search of Trump’s estate has set a Thursday hearing to weigh arguments on whether to unseal the government’s affidavit supporting the search.

He says yes: Trump called for the "immediate release" of the unredacted affidavit, in a post on Truth Social.

They say no: The Justice Department opposed unsealing the affidavit, saying it would "irreparably harm the government's ongoing criminal investigation."

Biden signs Inflation Reduction Act into law

With a few strokes of a pen on Tuesday, President Joe Biden turned Democrats' hard-fought climate and health-care spending legislation from a bill into a law. Biden, stressing more than once that every Republican in Congress opposed the bill, praised the Inflation Reduction Act as a “godsend” for many families. Here's a look at what it means for you.

What’s in the bill? 

Health care: Lower prescription-drug costs for seniors and extended health-insurance subsidies for millions.

Taxes: Raising a projected $739 billion, the measure will also reduce the deficit and set a minimum tax rate for large corporations. 

Climate change: $369 billion will go toward the fight against global warming, lowering costs for consumers on electric vehicles, appliances and sustainable energy.

What's not included? Several of Democrats' most ambitious plans were left behind, including paid sick and parental leave, universal preschool, subsidized child care or an enhanced child tax credit.

The Inflation Reduction Act is law. Now, Democrats race to explain its benefits.
