I am so glad to see this heightened awareness and dialogue about “ovarian” cancer risk frequently originating in the fallopian tubes. It is overdue and so vital. Grateful to have had a prophylactic bilateral salpingectomy last year due to my BRCA1-related heightened risk.

The Department of Justice spent more than a decade building a case accusing Live Nation of illegally dominating the live event industry by thwarting competition to keep ticket prices high and restricting artists' access to live venues. But according to a Wall Street Journal investigation, President Donald Trump urged senior DOJ officials to settle the case just days before it was set to go to trial. It came shortly after the president met with the company's CEO in the Oval Office. Attorneys general from 33 states and D.C. had joined the lawsuit, and, despite the settlement, most refused to sign on to it, saying the terms were too favorable. Ali Rogin (@AliRogin) discussed more with Wall Street Journal investigative reporter Rebecca Ballhaus.

Earlier this month, federal prosecutors moved to strip citizenship from 25 naturalized Americans, accusing them of lying about their pasts and hiding serious crimes. The tactic is called denaturalization, and the Justice Department now calls it one of its top priorities. To help understand the increased use of this tool, justice correspondent @AliRogin spoke with Cassandra Burke Robertson, a law professor at Case Western Reserve University.

Hundreds of federal judges have received threats against themselves and their families this year, according to the U.S. Marshals Service.

EXCLUSIVE: A top adviser to the overall commander of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) tells PBS News Hour that the U.S. military is "weaker than what we perceived." "The longer this war lasts, the more experience we gain," Brig. Gen. Mohammad Reza Naqdi said Tuesday in an interview with special correspondent Reza Sayah. "We had never seen a real war to gain real experience to learn how to fight with America. In these five months, we have learned how." The IRGC is largely responsible for Iran's border and internal security. The U.S. and many other nations have designated it a terrorist organization, and the IRGC rarely gives interviews — almost never to Western media. Sayah asked Naqdi if it is Iran's objective to drag out the war until President Donald Trump leaves office. "Look, we have to attain deterrence so that the enemy never dares to attack us, so we can live with security," Naqdi said. "One way is to prolong this war until we get to the next term of the presidency and cause attrition, so that if anyone else wants to attack Iran, they will know there is a cost."

The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 12-10, along party lines, Tuesday to advance the nomination of acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to permanently lead the Department of Justice. Blanche's nomination now faces a full Senate vote. The committee vote came after Blanche cleared a major hurdle in his confirmation process, reaching a deal with two GOP senators who had said they would block his nomination. Blanche put in writing that the DOJ is scrapping a $1.8 billion “anti-weaponization” fund that could have provided settlements to President Donald Trump's allies, including Jan. 6 rioters.
