President Donald Trump warned Democratic lawmakers Saturday that unless they approved funding for the Department of Homeland Security "immediately," he would send Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to airports across the nation where they would "arrest" any undocumented migrants they encounter. The federal government has been partially shut down since February after Democratic lawmakers refused to fund DHS in protest of the violent immigration enforcement operations carried out by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency under DHS. Democratic lawmakers demanded reforms to ICE before funding the agency, demands that Republicans rejected. "If the Radical Left Democrats don't immediately sign an agreement to let our Country, in particular, our Airports, be FREE and SAFE again, I will move our brilliant and patriotic ICE Agents to the Airports where they will do Security like no one has ever seen before," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.

The FBI was told that there were people shredding documents. Bags of them. The inmate wasn't the only one who found it out of the ordinary. A corrections officer at the detention facility called the FBI's National Threat Operations Center that same night, a Friday, at 6:28 p.m. to report that he had "never seen this amount of bags of shredded documents coming out to be put in the dumpster at the rear gate of MCC."

The plan, described as "the Gamechanger," was aimed at lifting Orbn as he enters the final stretch before Hungary's April 12 parliamentary election under pressure from a weak economy and slipping public support.

Mark Robinson, the former NC lieutenant governor who has stayed relatively quiet since his failed gubernatorial campaign in 2024, is back and ready to "tell the truth." In a new podcast episode titled "Mark Robinson Finally Admits It," Robinson admitted Thursday to an "obsession" with pornography and sex, and he acknowledged that he lied back in 2024 when a CNN report uncovered lewd and racist remarks he had previously made on a porn forum. He did so then, he said, in order to protect Trump's campaign. Even in his honesty, Robinson remained defensive, and he seemed to believe that he did something righteous by lying. Even though he wanted to own up to it, he said, other people would be affected, so it would be "selfish" to be truthful.
