LOS ANGELES (AP) — Win or lose, billionaire Democrat Tom Steyer will leave a mark in the history books in his bid to become California’s next governor. He’s running the most expensive political advertising campaign in the country this year. Data from ad tracker AdImpact shows Steyer has spent or booked over $195 million in ads for broadcast TV, cable and radio, with the tally still growing. The lavish spending has lifted the former hedge fund manager turned liberal activist into contention in the crowded race. But he’s not breaking away from the field. Still, the cash advantage could give him an edge in the race's final days.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump is meeting with his Cabinet at a precarious moment for talks aimed at ending the war with Iran and asserts the Iranian side is “negotiating on fumes.” The Republican president has projected confidence that he's closing in on a deal that will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and give him a credible argument that Iran’s nuclear capability has been diminished enough to declare victory. But Trump risks finding that closure to his war of choice comes with an unsatisfactory ending — one that puts off many critical issues to be resolved later. It leaves Trump vulnerable to criticism that Iran’s hard-line leaders will emerge from the conflict battered but emboldened.

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said during the Cabinet meeting that the app would launch “on all major platforms" on Thursday, May 28. A provision of Trump’s tax legislation, Trump Accounts are meant to give $1,000 to every newborn, so long as their parents open an account. That money is then invested in the stock market by private firms, and the child can access the money when they turn 18. Calling it a “great symbol of the 250th anniversary,” Bessent said that “nearly 6 million kids” had been signed up for the accounts, which officially launch July 4.

LONGVIEW, Wash. (AP) — Authorities say there’s no hope of finding more survivors at a Washington paper mill where nine missing workers remain missing after a tank imploded and released a highly destructive chemical mixture. Authorities have confirmed that at least one person was killed in Tuesday's implosion at Nippon Dynawave Packaging Co. in Longview. Crews hope to resume searching Wednesday but must stabilize the tank before any of the bodies can be recovered. Officials say it is at risk of collapsing further and leaking more of the caustic liquid. The cause of the implosion remains unknown. Authorities says there’s no threat to the public.

WASHINGTON, May 27 (Reuters) - The United States must prevent any cases of Ebola from entering the country from the Democratic Republic of Congo, where an outbreak has already caused a suspected 220 deaths and 900 cases, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Wednesday. "We cannot and will not allow any cases of Ebola to enter the United States," Rubio told President Donald Trump at a cabinet meeting. "The State Department and other agencies represented here, the Centers for Disease Control, HHS, others, are working very, very hard to contain this crisis to the countries where it's currently located, particularly the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and so we surged assistance to make sure that it is being contained there," Rubio said. The U.S. CDC last week imposed entry restrictions for 30 days on travelers who have been in the DRC, Uganda and South Sudan in the past 21 days, including lawful permanent residents, known as Green Card holders. It is also screening people traveling from those countries at three U.S. airports.

WASHINGTON, May 27 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday told a cabinet meeting that Iran very much wanted to make a deal, but that the U.S. was not satisfied with it yet. "Iran is very much intent, they want very much to make a deal. So far they haven't gotten there ... we're not satisfied with it, but we will be. We will be either that or we'll have to just finish the job," Trump told reporters at a cabinet meeting at the White House.

Former Attorney General Pam Bondi is reportedly recovering after being diagnosed with thyroid cancer shortly after stepping down from her role at the Justice Department. Multiple reports say Bondi underwent treatment, including surgery, and is now recovering well. Sources familiar with the situation say the diagnosis came after her departure from the Trump administration earlier this year. Bondi, who served as attorney general during President Donald Trump’s administration, has not publicly detailed her treatment but reportedly told CNN she is “doing well.” The news surfaced as reports emerged that Trump had appointed Bondi to a new White House advisory role focused on artificial intelligence policy.

Oil prices dropped sharply , falling to around $89 a barrel after reports suggested a possible peace agreement between the United States and Iran could reopen the Strait of Hormuz within the next month. The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most critical shipping routes, carrying roughly 20 percent of the global oil supply. Any disruption in the region has major impacts on fuel prices and international markets. Investors reacted positively to reports that negotiations between Washington and Tehran are progressing, raising hopes that tensions in the Middle East could ease and energy shipments could stabilize. Despite the market optimism, officials say negotiations are still ongoing and no formal agreement has been finalized.

The announcement comes as Gabbard continues releasing additional classified findings before leaving office, though details about the material have not yet been fully disclosed publicly.

Her expected departure is likely to draw significant attention in Washington as questions remain about the timing of the release of classified information and the future direction of U.S. intelligence leadership.
