- On Sunday, White House officials expressed alarm that reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan obtained secret Situation Room recordings for their forthcoming book, "Regime Change."
- The book is scheduled for release on June 23, with Haberman and Swan conducting more than 1,000 interviews for their chronicle of President Donald Trump's second term.
