Doug Burgum, June 27, 2024, in Atlanta, Rep. Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., June 13, 2024, and Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., Nov. 8, 2023, in Miami. It's not unheard of for a running mate to move beyond past disagreements with a presidential candidate. But the shift is more striking for Donald Trump's potential vice presidential contenders, in some cases requiring them to abandon long-held policy positions and recant vehement criticism. (AP Photo)

Supporters of Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. protest outside the Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, Calif., Friday, June 21, 2024. Warner Bros. Discovery, CNN's parent company, plans to relocate to its Burbank studios. Host network CNN said Thursday the independent presidential candidate fell short of benchmarks both for state ballot qualification and polling. The missed markers mean the June 27 showdown will be solely between President Joe Biden and Donald Trump. (AP Photo/Damian Dovarganes)

As the U.S. Supreme Court is expected to rule on a major case involving former President Donald Trump, 7 in 10 Americans think its justices are more likely to shape the law to fit their own ideology, rather than serving as neutral arbiters of government authority, according to a new poll.

Meanwhile, Burgum is wrestling with a mammoth carbon dioxide pipeline project in his home state.
