Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is re-emerging to plug her new book on the 2016 presidential campaign and Democrats aren’t exactly thrilled. Ten months after her loss to Donald Trump, Clinton’s party remains sharply divided over the reasons for the defeat and how to recover from it. Look no further than the push by progressive lawmakers this week on single-payer healthcare or the increasing list of potential 2020 candidates dipping their toes in the waters of Iowa and New Hampshire.

Another hurricane is again dominating the Washington agenda, as the nation’s capital grasps with managing and preparing to fund the response to Hurricane Irma. The White House says it’s as yet too early to know the full cost, but it anticipates as many as three substantial supplemental funding requests for disaster relief in the coming months—each a potential legislative showdown.

Steve Bannon speaks out. Trump aides lawyer up. And the expansiveness of the president’s pardon power.
