From pardons to Pruitt: Another long, busy week in the Trump White House

On the same day Trump declared the Philadelphia team wouldn't be coming to DC, he also asserted he has the "absolute right" to pardon himself.  Pardons then became somewhat of the theme of the week; Trump later announced he will commute the sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, the 63-year-old first-time nonviolent drug offender whom Kim Kardashian advocated for during her White House visit last week. That's right: Kim K's efforts worked (she talked to CNN's Van Jones about the experience). Sources told CNN's Kaitlan Collins that Trump has considered dozens more pardons. Trump even said Friday he is considering posthumously pardoning boxer Muhammad Ali -- unnecessary, considering the Supreme Court overturned his conviction in 1971.

Meanwhile, away from the White House, Environmental Protection Agency chief Scott Pruitt continued to make headlines for a growing list of scandals. Trump expressed confidence in Pruitt, saying he believes Pruitt is "doing a great job."

Now, all eyes are on the G7 summit as the world watches Trump meet with fellow global leaders after saying he thinks Russia should be reinstated to the leading group of industrialized nations.
