The report indicated that administration officials made the call because of threats against the president's plane.

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) broke his silence about the medical issues he is facing on Sunday in a statement that stunned onlookers.

The Medical Examiner of the District of Columbia said in their report that Graham suffered from an "aortic dissection due to Arteriosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease," reported Max Cohen of Punchbowl News. Said another way, Graham appears to have died from a rupture in his aorta that was caused by fatty plaques that restricted blood flow.

President Donald Trump's Department of Justice just made a damning admission about some key files related to the Jeffrey Epstein case that the agency possesses, one that could backfire spectacularly, according to analysts.

Kel McClanahan, executive director of public interest law firm National Security Counselors, and Allison Gill, founder of MSW Media, discussed their ongoing lawsuit to retrieve training manuals the Trump DOJ created to guide agents through the redaction process for the Epstein files during a new episode of Gill's podcast, "The Breakdown." Gill noted that the DOJ made a "stunning" revelation in its latest denial of her company's open records request to get the training documents, one that could put the DOJ in legal jeopardy.

Graham died suddenly on Saturday after a "brief and sudden illness," his office announced.
