Atty. Gen.: No Charges For Hillary, Talks of Sanders-Clinton Appearance, New Video Of Deadly Police Shooting

Donald Trump is coming to Capitol Hill to rally the GOP troops roughly two weeks before he's slated to accept his party's nomination for president at the GOP convention in Cleveland, but the crowd might be a little thin.

"I've got a long-standing appointment downtown and I don't know at what time I can get out of that and get back to the Hill," Rep. Fred Upton, R-Michigan, told reporters Wednesday.
Colorado GOP Rep. Mike Coffman, one of the House Democrats' top targets in November, told CNN, "I'm not going to be able to make it. I've got a conflict."
Sen. Pat Toomey, who is in a difficult re-election race in Pennsylvania and has not endorsed Trump, shrugged off questions about the meeting Trump has scheduled with at the National Republican Senatorial Committee Thursday.
"I haven't checked my schedule yet," Toomey said Wednesday evening when asked if he'd attend the Trump session. "I don't know."

From Vladimir Putin to Saddam Hussein, Donald Trump has regularly and openly expressed his admiration for a rogues' gallery of foreign dictators and autocrats.

Does he have a soft spot for strongmen?
The former Iraqi leader, who was mentioned in an eyebrow-raising speech Tuesday, is a recurring character. Critics have called it a fixation and a window into how Trump would govern if elected. Hillary Clinton -- and her campaign -- have repeatedly assailed her likely opponent for offering, as adviser Jake Sullivan put it, "cavalier compliments" to international despots.
"I will leave it to the psychiatrists to explain his attraction to tyrants," said Clinton herself in a June national security speech.
