Millions of Americans turned out this weekend to celebrate the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence, known as America 250. The festivities took place even as a heat dome engulfed more than two dozen states and Washington, D.C., causing temperatures to soar into the triple digits and forcing the nation’s capital to scale back some events.

Following the celebrations, GOP leaders have shifted their focus back to the political agenda of former President Donald Trump, signaling a renewed emphasis on his priorities in upcoming discussions.
