President Trump says he's going to "set out his vision" when he visits the Department of Justice later today. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt says Trump will give remarks at the department about "ending the weaponization of justice against Americans for their political leanings." Trump told reporters he will also be talking about crime and immigration. There appears to be a split among Democrats over the GOP funding bill. House Democrats are reportedly in a "complete meltdown" after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said he would support the bill to avoid a government shutdown. A senior House Democrat told Axios that some are talking about supporting primary challenges to senators who vote for the bill. American Airlines says one of its planes caught fire Thursday after it landed in Denver. In a statement, the airline said the flight from Colorado Springs to Texas experienced an engine-related issue and had to be diverted to Denver. The FAA says the engine caught fire at the airport and 172 passengers and six crew members had to evacuate using the slides. A global alert has been issued for a University of Pittsburgh student who went missing in the Dominican Republic. Interpol says 20-year-old Sudiksha Konanki disappeared more than a week ago after traveling to the Dominican Republic for spring break. A fire at the home of a Bayer pharmaceutical executive is being investigated as arson. The fire was reported at the executive's New Jersey house on March 4th. Now at least eight agencies including the FBI are all investigating the incident. Dr. Oz will be grilled by the Senate today over his nomination to head Medicare and Medicaid Services. Mehmet Oz was nominated by President Trump and is likely to be approved by the Republican majority at today's confirmation hearing.
