Sen. Bob Corker Opts Out of Being Considered for Donald Trump’s Vice President
Sen. Bob Corker is taking himself out of a pool of potential vice president picks for presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump, according to the Tennessee senator’s office. The Republican senator appeared on stage at Trump's campaign rally Tuesday. Corker, who appeared on ABC News’ “This Week” a month ago, said the likely Republican presidential nominee would have to begin to adjust his tone as he moves toward the 2016GOP convention unopposed. http://abcn.ws/29hX3nc

House Democrats Ask Bernie Sanders When He'll Endorse Clinton
Sen. Bernie Sanders was peppered with questions about when he plans to suspend his presidential campaign and endorse Hillary Clinton in a closed-door meeting with House Democrats Tuesday morning, receiving a chilly reception from a group that has overwhelmingly backed Clinton’s White House bid. The senator praised Clinton’s campaign and called for the need to reform the primary system, but was vague about his own plans, frustrating Democrats who want to see the party unite against presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump and a fractured Republican Party. Nearly every member of the caucus -- which gave Clinton a warm welcome in a meeting two weeks ago -– has backed Clinton’s bid. http://abcn.ws/29yGqsK

James Comey: The Man at the Center of the Clinton Email Investigation
FBI Director James Comey started his news conference Tuesday in the boldest of fashions, explaining that no one else in government knew what he was about to say, which would include news with great national political and legal implications. But this was not Comey’s first high-stakes rodeo. The towering, 6-foot-8 Republican has served presidents from both parties and built a career on his daring ways. Here’s a closer look at the man who reprimanded former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton for her use of a personal email server, but also seemingly put an end to the question of whether any criminal charges will be filed: http://abcn.ws/29ka1S8

Jared Kushner Defends Father-in-Law Donald Trump After Anti-Semitism Claims
Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner has become a growing force behind the scenes of the presidential campaign, but he was thrust into the spotlight this week after one of his employees penned an open letter to him accusing Trump of anti-Semitism. Kushner is a public figure in his own right, having purchased The New York Observer a decade ago and running his family's real estate firm. His 2009 wedding to Ivanka Trump only strengthened the public's interest in him. In recent months, he's been focused on helping his father-in-law's campaign, largely behind the scenes -- until now. http://abcn.ws/29rNX9S

Trump Accuses Clinton of Bribery
Trump expressed disbelief at the FBI's recommendation that the Department of Justice not pursue charges against Hillary Clinton for the use of a private email server while she served as President Obama's secretary of state and suggested that Clinton bribed the attorney general. "I'll tell you that we have a rigged system folks," Trump said during a campaign rally in Raleigh, North Carolina last night. Trump accused Clinton of bribing Attorney General Loretta Lynch with the reported promise of staying on during her administration. "So Hillary said today, at least according to what I saw on television, which you can't always believe. I actually found it hard to believe she'd said this, but she said today that we may consider the attorney general to go forward. That's like a bribe, isn't it? Isn't it sort of a bribe? I think it's a bribe," Trump said. More from ABC's JOHN SANTUCCI, CANDACE SMITH and VERONICA STRACQUALURSI: http://abcn.ws/29kp5nX
