Pictures have leaked showing Trump's destruction of the historic White House West Colonnade walkway.

MASS MOBILIZATION: "No Kings," a decentralized protest movement that burst onto the national scene through “No Kings Day” in June 2025, is set to hold thousands of anti-Trump protests across the country. Saturday’s protests will focus on opposition to President Trump’s recent actions in Iran and immigration enforcement.

A Stanford student testified that she was targeted by a Chinese spy — and the FBI confirmed to her that she and her family were being surveilled by China. Elsa Johnson said a man who called himself Charles Chen reached out to her on Instagram during her Freshman year. The FBI later told her he had no affiliation with Stanford and was likely working on behalf of China’s ministry of state security. And she was not the only student targeted.

Some color on who is & isn't being paid in ICE & CBP via the One Big Beautiful Bill. Most of ICE & CBP are funded through 2029 via the OBBB and operations won't be impacted if they aren't funded through appropriations, for now. All frontline law enforcement is being paid. The ICE, Border Patrol, and CBP agents we see in the field are all getting paid via OBBB.  HOWEVER... their professional and civilian support staff are NOT being paid. These are people who work the computers, the public affairs offices, and other support staff who aren't on the front line making immigration arrests, but are supporting the agents who are. These civilian support staffers haven't been paid for almost half of the last six months when you factor in the prior shutdown last fall. They feel left behind - and feel they have no light at the end of the tunnel with this Senate bill leaving CBP & ICE unfunded through appropriations. They would have to hope GOP could take care of them in a future reconciliation bill, or that more funds could be moved around to pay them. These are some texts I've gotten from these staffers... CBP support employee:  "The senate bill paid TSA but thousands of CBP & ICE professional staff will not be paid.   The last paid work day for me was February 13.  Now senate on paid vacation until April 13 that is a guarantee for 2 months no pay.  Very likely we won’t be paid until May if Johnson lets the bill pass." ICE civilian employee: "I have a huge favor. When you guys report on the fact that ICE is funded through OB3 funds, can you please make it known that support staff (i.e. mission support, OPA, etc.) is NOT getting paid?" HSI civilian employee:   "We civilians are not getting paid, I'm working with my mom in the hospital and not getting paid. This is all so frustrating...sorry bill for venting!"
