It's Wednesday, July 15th.
I'm Danny Lewis for The Wall Street Journal, sitting in for Alex Osola.
This is the PM edition of What's News, the top headlines and business stories that move the world today.
PayPal has received a takeover bid from payments company Stripe and buyout firm Advent International.
People familiar with the matter say the proposed deal would value PayPal at around $53 billion, but there are no guarantees that PayPal will be receptive.
The company's in the early stages of a turnaround plan under a new CEO.
PayPal shares closed up 17%.
It's the stock's best day ever since it became an independent publicly traded company in 2015.
That's when it was spun off from eBay.
In Washington, President Trump says ICE should continue using traffic stops to arrest immigrants.
The agency just this week had told officers that they shouldn't stop cars so they could arrest and question the people inside.
That came after federal immigration officers shot and killed two people while they were driving in separate incidents in Maine and Texas.
Traffic stops are one of the most common tools immigration officers use to arrest people, and halting them would make it harder for the administration to meet its internal arrest quotas.
In a statement, Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullen said the department's number one goal is to keep officers safe and get criminals off the street.
But he didn't directly address the president's announcement.
The Homeland Security Department and the White House didn't respond to a request for comment.
And on Capitol Hill, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanch was trying to convince lawmakers that President Trump's $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund is dead and buried.
Critics saw the fund as a money pot for the president's allies, and it's become a sticking point for key Republican senators, senators whose support Blanch needs to be confirmed as attorney general.
During his confirmation hearing today, Blanch told the Senate Judiciary Committee that the Justice Department would accept legislation to prevent the fund from being resurrected.
However, Blanch says the text of the deal creating the fund has not been changed, and he acknowledged that Trump could theoretically sue the government for breach of contract for failing to create the fund.
