President Donald Trump held a Cabinet meeting with his top officials, including Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, as well as Elon Musk, on Thursday.

It follows Trump on Wednesday changing course on his tariff policy, instituting a 90-day pause in higher taxes for most countries while ramping up the rate against China to 145%.

On Capitol Hill, Republican leaders pushed through a budget blueprint to fund Trump's domestic agenda despite some GOP hard-liner opposition.

Bondi: Trump will ‘probably’ leave after second term

Attorney General Pam Bondi said Sunday she expects Trump will "probably" leave the presidency following his second term -- even as she left the door slightly open toward him serving another four years in what she described as a "heavy lift" to amend the U.S. Constitution.

"President Trump has served one full term. He's on his second full term. He's a very smart man and -- we, I wish we could have him for 20 years as our president, but I think he's going to be finished probably after this term," Bondi said in an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”

"Probably?" host Shannon Bream asked.

"Well, the Constitution -- we'd have to look at the Constitution," Bondi replied. "It would be a heavy lift."

"And whether you get two thirds of the Senate and House to go along with you -- but is the concession that that's really the only way to do it?" Bream said.

"It'd be a heavy lift," Bondi responded.
