The Trump administration sued the city of Los Angeles on Monday, accusing the city of violating the Constitution with “sanctuary city” policies that impede federal immigration enforcement.
The Justice Department said in a <a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/media/1406366/dl" target="_blank" rel="noopener">lawsuit</a> that the city’s policy prohibiting any city resources from being used for federal immigration actions violates the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution. The DOJ argued that the city’s policies contributed to the anti-ICE riots that rocked Los Angeles County earlier this month as law enforcement officers were attacked and vehicles were burned.
“Sanctuary policies were the driving cause of the violence, chaos, and attacks on law enforcement that Americans recently witnessed in Los Angeles,” Attorney General Pam Bondi said. “Jurisdictions like Los Angeles that flout federal law by prioritizing illegal aliens over American citizens are undermining law enforcement at every level – it ends under President Trump.”
Shortly after Trump was elected in November, the Los Angeles City Council voted to officially designate itself as a sanctuary city. These policies prevent the city from working with or sharing information with federal immigration authorities.
“The Supremacy Clause prohibits the City of Los Angeles and its officials from singling out the Federal Government for adverse treatment — as the challenged law and policies do — thereby discriminating against the Federal Government,” the lawsuit says. “Accordingly, the law and policies challenged here are invalid and should be enjoined.”

The suit names Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass, the Los Angeles City Council, and Los Angeles City Council President Marqueece Harris-Dawson.

President Donald Trump sent in the Marines and the National Guard to protect federal personnel and property in response to the riots.
“Today’s lawsuit holds the City of Los Angeles accountable for deliberately obstructing the enforcement of federal immigration law,” said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California. “The United States Constitution’s Supremacy Clause prohibits the City from picking and choosing which federal laws will be enforced and which will not. By assisting removable aliens in evading federal law enforcement, the City’s unlawful and discriminatory ordinance has contributed to a lawless and unsafe environment that this lawsuit will help end.”

Protesters continue to clash with the Los Angeles Police Department in downtown Los Angeles due to the immigration raids in L.A.

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is facing accusations of lying under oath to Congress last week after denying the central bank&#8217;s $2.5 billion headquarters renovation would include lavish amenities like private dining rooms and special elevators, despite planning documents revealing precisely those features.
Government planning documents reviewed by the Senate Banking Committee, first <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/06/30/business/jerome-powell-accused-of-lying-to-congress-over-2-5b-palace-of-versailles-hq-revamp/">revealed</a> by the New York Post, directly contradict Powell&#8217;s claims, specifically mentioning &#8220;private dining rooms&#8221; and a &#8220;Governors&#8217; private elevator,&#8221; as well as &#8220;vegetated roof terraces&#8221; for &#8220;urban wildlife and pollinators.&#8221;
&#8220;There&#8217;s no VIP dining room, there&#8217;s no new marble. There are no special elevators,&#8221; Powell claimed under oath on Wednesday. &#8220;There are no new water features, there&#8217;s no beehives, and there&#8217;s no roof terrace gardens.&#8221;
Powell&#8217;s testimony directly contradicts government planning documents that have not been revised since their approval in 2021.
&#8220;The private dining rooms on Level 4 (of the Fed&#8217;s Eccles building) will be restored,&#8221; reads one excerpt from the filing with the National Capital Planning Commission. &#8220;The Governors&#8217; private elevator will be extended to discharge at the dining suite level.&#8221;
According to the Post, the filing also explicitly mentions &#8220;vegetated roof terraces&#8221; featuring &#8220;urban wildlife and pollinators&#8221; in addition to new marble and water features.
Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), chair of the Senate Banking Committee, branded the renovations &#8220;luxury upgrades that feel more like they belong in the Palace of Versailles.&#8221;
<a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-2388">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a>
Powell dismissed the price tag for the revamp, which exceeded the original estimate of $1.9 billion by 30%, saying in Wednesday&#8217;s hearing that &#8220;the cost overruns are what they are.&#8221;
Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), a majority member of the committee, said Powell &#8220;was clearly not prepared for his testimony, and should be embarrassed.&#8221;
&#8220;He made a number of factually inaccurate statements to the Committee regarding the Fed&#8217;s plush private dining room and elevator, skylights, water features, and roof terrace,&#8221; Lummis told the Post. &#8220;This is typical of the mismanagement and &#8216;don&#8217;t bother me&#8217; attitude that Chair Powell has always shown.&#8221;
Andrew T. Levin, a professor of economics at Dartmouth College who served as an economist and advisor to the Fed&#8217;s board for 20 years, called for congressional action, slamming Powell in a statement to the Post.
&#8220;A top Fed official cannot be permitted to make false statements under oath at a congressional hearing. Such statements must be promptly corrected, and in egregious cases, subject to censure by the Senate,&#8221; Levin said.
Former Department of Government Efficiency chief Elon Musk previously called the news about the Fed&#8217;s headquarters revamp &#8220;an eyebrow raiser&#8221; and suggested the department should investigate the spending.
The controversy arises as the Fed grapples with mounting financial losses totaling $233 billion over the past three years, including a record $114.6 billion loss in 2023 — the first time in its history that the central bank has operated in the red.
Powell, whose term as Fed Chair ends in May 2026 unless renominated by President Trump, is facing scathing criticism from the president over the central bank&#8217;s refusal to cut interest rates, adding to the mounting pressure on the embattled Fed Chair.

Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Dan “Razin” Caine in a Thursday press conference with Defense Secratary Pete Hegseth provided a detailed description of the American strikes and released video showing how bunker-buster bombs crippled Iran&#8217;s nuclear facilities.
Caine revealed that the United States military had developed the GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, better known as bunker buster bombs, more than 15 years ago, specifically with Iran’s nuclear program in mind.
He showed several military graphics and videos showcasing exactly how the bombers were to inflict extensive damage at Iran&#8217;s Fordo nuclear site.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560">
Gen. Dan &#8220;Razin&#8221; Caine demonstrates how GBU-57 MOPs work: &#8220;Unlike a normal surface bomb, you won&#8217;t see an impact crater because they&#8217;re designed to deeply bury and then function &#8230; All six weapons at each vent at Fordow went exactly where they were intended to go.&#8221; <a href="https://t.co/iQs3oWcJ4X">pic.twitter.com/iQs3oWcJ4X</a>

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
“All six weapons at each vent at Fordo went exactly where they were intended to go. A bomb has three effects that causes damage: blast, fragmentation, and overpressure,” Caine said. “In this case, the primary kill mechanism in the mission space was a mix of overpressure and blast ripping through the open tunnels and destroying critical hardware.“
Thursday&#8217;s press conference comes after the Trump administration accused CNN, The New York Times, and other legacy media outlets of attempting to torpedo the success of the strikes, quoting a leaked preliminary assessment that said the attack only set Iran’s nuclear program back by months.
“The majority of the damage we assessed based on our extensive modeling was a blast layer combined with the impulse extending from the shock. Imagine what this looks like six times over,” Caine added.
The media asked Gen. Caine if he was pressured to provide a rosy assessment of the destruction at Fordo, to which he pushed back, “No, I have not, and no, I would not.”
The U.S. strike on Fordo primarily focused on two ventilation shafts as the “primary point of entry into the mission space,” Caine said.
“In the days preceding the attack against Fordo, the Iranians attempted to cover the shafts with concrete to try to prevent an attack,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I won’t share the specific dimensions of the concrete cap, but you should know that we know what the dimensions of those concrete caps were. The planners had to account for this. They accounted for everything.”
“The cap was forcibly removed by the first weapon, and the main shaft was uncovered. Weapons two, three, four, five were tasked to enter the main shaft, move down into the complex at greater than 1,000 feet per second, and explode in the mission space. Weapon number six was designed as a flex weapon to allow us to cover if one of the preceding jets or one of the preceding weapons did not work. There were six on each side.”

A federal judge who was nominated by former President Joe Biden openly defied the Supreme Court on Monday, ignoring the high court&#8217;s stay of the preliminary injunction he had issued blocking the Trump administration from deporting illegal immigrants.
In April, Judge Brian E. Murphy, who was confirmed when the U.S. Senate was controlled by Democrats last December, <a href="https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/69775896/64/dvd-v-us-department-of-homeland-security/">granted a preliminary injunction</a> to illegal immigrants — all of whom had been convicted of serious crimes —  who had challenged the Trump administration’s order deporting them. “Several of the men have convictions for murder, the White House said, while others have convictions for drug, violent or sexual crimes,” the Worcester Telegram &amp; Gazette <a href="https://www.telegram.com/story/news/2025/05/30/judge-brian-murphy-deportation-case-trump/83945602007/">pointed out</a>.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
On May 20, the eight illegal immigrants were transported on a plane headed to South Sudan, where the government said it would repatriate the men to their home countries. On May 21, Murphy <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/21/us/politics/south-sudan-deportation.html">said</a> the Trump administration had violated his April 21 order. On May 27, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to put a stay on Murphy’s injunction.
On Monday, June 23, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the Trump administration could deport illegal aliens convicted of violent crimes to “third countries.” But on Monday evening, Murphy issued an <a href="https://x.com/ProfMJCleveland/status/1937306646654402632">order</a> stating, “The Court’s May 21, 2025 Order on Remedy remains in full force and effect, notwithstanding today’s stay of the Preliminary Injunction. The District Court’s remedial orders [were] not properly before the [Supreme] Court because the Government has not appealed them, or sought a stay pending a forthcoming appeal.”
“Last night, hours after the Supreme Court 6-3 blocked a Boston district judge&#8217;s lawless preliminary injunction preventing the government from removing the worst of the worst illegal aliens to third countries, the district judge announced business as usual and said its orders enforcing the injunction remained in effect,” Chad Mizelle, Chief of Staff at the Department of Justice, wrote on X. “When a single district judge immediately and flagrantly defies the Supreme Court, that is not the rule of law—it is an Article III insurrection.”

An education watchdog asked the Trump administration to crack down on one of the largest all-women’s colleges in the country because it admits transgender-identifying males and maintains restrooms. 
Defending Education filed a civil rights <a href="https://defendinged.org/complaints/ocr-complaint-smith-college/">complaint</a> on Friday alleging that Smith College’s admissions, discrimination, and restroom policies violate federal law. The complaint urges the department to investigate Smith College, located in Northampton, Massachusetts, for discrimination on the basis of sex in violation of Title IX. 
The complaint also argues that the university policies defy President Donald Trump’s executive orders combating gender ideology and the Education Department’s <a href="https://www.ed.gov/about/news/press-release/us-department-of-education-enforce-2020-title-ix-rule-protecting-women" target="_blank" rel="noopener">guidance</a> that Title IX does not include gender identity as a protected class. 
“Discrimination based on gender identity is not the same as discrimination based on sex under Title IX, as this Department well knows, and the Supreme Court has never held it is,” Defending Education Vice President Sarah Parshall Perry wrote in the complaint. “In other words, to the extent Smith’s accommodations for so-called gender identity encroach upon sex-specific programs and spaces, it is in violation of Title IX.”
The complaint also says that the school is violating federal policy by allowing males who identify as females to take the place of females in admissions. For the 2023-2024 school year, Smith only admitted around 20% of those who applied. 
Its policies make clear that the historically all-women’s college allows men to enter so long as they identify as transgender. 
“People who identify as women—cis, trans and nonbinary women—are eligible to apply to Smith,” the college <a href="https://www.smith.edu/your-campus/offices-services/equity-inclusion/gender-identity-expression">explains</a>. “Smith’s policy is one of self-identification. The applicant’s affirmation of identity is sufficient.”
The decision to admit males was first made in 2015 after Smith <a href="https://www.smith.edu/president-kathleen-mccartney/letters/2014-15/admission-policy-announcement">conducted</a> a year-long study group on the topic. 
“Smith has students, faculty and staff who are trans, nonbinary, and gender nonconforming. Smith students are here to engage with each other socially and academically in respectful ways, and our community values the range of identities that the student body represents,&#8221; Smith says. 
The college says that it is expanding more of its facilities to allow men into women’s bathrooms and locker rooms. 
“Every single-occupancy restroom on campus is designated all-gender, and more and more multi-stall bathrooms are as well,” the college notes, adding that it has “an all-gender locker room in the athletic facilities, with private showering and changing areas.”
The complaint flagged other aspects of Smith’s embrace of gender ideology, including the Schacht Center for Health and Wellness&#8217; commitment to providing “gender-affirming primary care, including hormone therapy, labs and specialty consultations and referrals for students interested in surgeries,” <a href="https://thesophian.com/gender-affirming-care-at-the-schacht-center-amid-trump-bans/">according</a> to the college’s independent student newspaper. 
Defending Education would like to see the Education Department, which has pushed for schools to abandon gender ideology, address the &#8220;unlawful&#8221; policies at Smith. 
“At a minimum, then, Smith’s gender-identity-based Equal Opportunity Policy; its admissions policy, which accepts natal men in lieu of similarly situated female applicants; and its all-gender restroom and locker room policies, which divest female students of their privacy, safety, and equal educational opportunity, all appear to violate Title IX,” Perry wrote in the complaint.
In a statement shared with The Daily Wire, Perry added that it remains important to fight for girls and women 53 years after the passage of Title IX.
“On the anniversary of Title IX, it bears remembering that Title IX was passed after an extensive campaign from women&#8217;s rights activists and a federal court decision holding that high school girls were not entitled to the same athletic opportunities as boys. Yet today, some institutions of higher education, including those that hold themselves out to be single-sex, appear to adhere to the notion that sex is fungible &#8212; even something that arch feminist Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote was false.&#8221;
&#8220;Our organization is keenly interested in ensuring equality of educational opportunity for all students, and it is our hope that when assessing the &#8216;female-only&#8217; policies of colleges like Smith, the Department of Education will take a closer look at that college&#8217;s possible attempts to rewrite Title IX, and allow transgender-identified males access to women&#8217;s-only spaces and admission slots,&#8221; Perry said. &#8220;Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it. Today and always, Title IX is worth celebrating, protecting, and enforcing so that men and women can truly be equal&#8211;and equally protected&#8211;in American education.”

The State Department issued a rare &#8220;Worldwide Caution&#8221; alert on Sunday amid concerns about a heightened risk of terror attacks by Iranian sleeper cells.
A White House official <a href="https://x.com/MaryMargOlohan/status/1936952258370896079" target="_blank" rel="noopener">told The Daily Wire</a> they are staying vigilant and that the Trump administration will use all resources available to protect both the United States and its assets abroad.
<a href="https://www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisory/national-terrorism-advisory-system-bulletin-june-22-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A bulletin</a> from the Department of Homeland Security’s National Terrorism Advisory System on Sunday warned that the “ongoing Iran conflict is causing a heightened threat environment in the United States.” The alert issued on Sunday warns American citizens overseas to “exercise increased caution,” adding that there is “potential for demonstrations against U.S. citizens and interests abroad.”
<a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/world/middle-east/live-blog/live-updates-iran-israel-trump-rcna214325#rcrd83150" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to NBC</a>, Iran sent a message to Trump through an intermediary at the G7 summit in Canada last week, warning that it could activate sleeper cell terror if he attacked. Trump left the summit early to return to the White House to consider his options amid the escalation between Israel and Iran at the time.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/get-our-people-home-florida-lawmaker-combat-vet-help-thousands-american-evacuate-israel?author=Kassy+Akiva&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98Get+Our+People+Home%E2%80%99%3A+This+Florida+Lawmaker+Is+Helping+Thousands+Of+Americans+Evacuate+Israel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">‘GET OUR PEOPLE HOME’: THIS FLORIDA LAWMAKER IS HELPING THOUSANDS OF AMERICANS EVACUATE ISRAEL</a>
The Department of Homeland Security cited Iran’s history of launching cyberattacks and targeting United States government officials. It added that there is a possibility of terrorists within the United States mobilizing as part of a response to Trump’s Sunday night strike on Iranian nuclear facilities.
“The likelihood of violent extremists in the Homeland independently mobilizing to violence in response to the conflict would likely increase if Iranian leadership issued a religious ruling calling for retaliatory violence against targets in the Homeland,” it said. “Multiple recent Homeland terrorist attacks have been motivated by anti-Semitic or anti-Israel sentiment, and the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict could contribute to U.S.-based individuals plotting additional attacks.”
It adds that the conflict could motivate “violent extremists and hate crime perpetrators” to attack targets that are Jewish, pro-Israel, or linked to the United States government or military.

The bulletin expires on September 22.
White House Border Czar Tom Homan said there is a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-border-czar-warns-of-biden-era-gotaways-amid-iranian-sleeper-cell-concerns" target="_blank" rel="noopener">risk posed</a> by the 1,272 Iranian nationals who illegally crossed the border during the Biden administration.
“Over 2 million people crossed that border, we don’t know who they are, where they came from, because they got away, because Border Patrol is so overwhelmed with the humanitarian crisis that Biden created that over 2 million people crossed the border and got away,” Homan told Fox News&#8217;s Maria Bartiromo on “Sunday Morning Futures.”
“That is my biggest concern,” he added. “And that’s what created the biggest national security vulnerability this country’s ever seen.”

Khalil, 30, spent 104 days in a Lousina detention center after his March 8 arrest, as the Trump administration sought to deport the Columbia student for allegedly engaging in activities &#8220;aligned to Hamas,&#8221; the Palestinian terrorist group responsible for the October 7, 2023, attacks on Israel.

&#8220;The U.S. government is funding this genocide, and Columbia University is investing in this genocide,&#8221; Khalil declared at the airport. &#8220;This is what I was protesting.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who joined Khalil at Newark Liberty International Airport alongside his wife and their newborn son, claimed the allegations against Khalil were politically motivated.
&#8220;Because Mahmoud Khalil is an advocate for Palestinian human rights, he has been accused, baselessly, of horrific allegations, simply because the Trump administration and our overall establishment disagrees with his political speech,&#8221; the congresswoman claimed to reporters. “We will continue to resist the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.”
The conditions of Khalil&#8217;s bail included surrendering his passport and travel restrictions limiting him to New York, New Jersey, Michigan, to visit his family, Washington, D.C., and Louisiana, where his immigration trial will be held.
Khalil graduated from Columbia in December, where Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused him of leading “antisemitic protests and disruptive activities, which fosters a hostile environment for Jewish students in the United States,” as The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/judge-rules-columbias-pro-hamas-agitator-mahmoud-khalil-can-be-deported">reported</a>.
“Condoning antisemitic conduct and disruptive protests in the United States would severely undermine that significant foreign policy objective,” Rubio added, citing the 1952 Immigration and Naturalization Act, which authorizes the U.S. Secretary of State to deport anyone whose continued residence in the country “would have serious adverse foreign policy consequences.&#8221;
Defense attorneys for Khalil celebrated the Syrian’s release as a “significant and important victory,&#8221; per the Post.
The Trump administration is <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/anti-israel-activist-mahmoud-khalil-released-following-judges-order">appealing</a> Judge Farbiarz’s preliminary injunction and Khalil&#8217;s release on bail to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals.

President Donald Trump said on Friday that a deal with Harvard University could be announced &#8220;over the next week or so&#8221; as the Trump administration and Ivy League school have been engaged in a months-long fight over diversity programs and antisemitism on Harvard&#8217;s campus.
The president praised Harvard for coming to the negotiating table to seek a solution for &#8220;their largescale improprieties.&#8221; Trump&#8217;s fight with Harvard started after he began stripping federal funding for the university over their diversity, equity, and inclusion programs and their failure to crack down on antisemitism. The battle between Trump and Harvard intensified earlier this month when the president moved to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/an-unacceptable-risk-trump-signs-proclamation-to-stop-foreign-students-from-enrolling-at-harvard?author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=%E2%80%98An+Unacceptable+Risk%E2%80%99%3A+Trump+Signs+Proclamation+To+Stop+Foreign+Students+From+Enrolling+At+Harvard">stop</a> foreign students from enrolling at the university.
&#8220;Many people have been asking what is going on with Harvard University and their largescale improprieties that we have been addressing, looking for a solution,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114717387393069944">wrote</a> on Truth Social. &#8220;We have been working closely with Harvard, and it is very possible that a Deal will be announced over the next week or so. They have acted extremely appropriately during these negotiations, and appear to be committed to doing what is right.&#8221;
&#8220;If a Settlement is made on the basis that is currently being discussed, it will be &#8216;mindbogglingly&#8217; HISTORIC, and very good for our Country. Thank you for your attention to this matter!&#8221; he added.
Harvard <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/harvard-sues-to-restore-taxpayer-funding-frozen-by-trump-admin">sued</a> the Trump administration for stripping over $2 billion in federal funding, and then <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/harvard-sues-after-trump-admin-blocks-university-from-admitting-foreign-students">sued again</a> over the administration&#8217;s attempt to bar foreign students from attending. Shortly before Trump&#8217;s comments on Friday, a Boston-based federal judge blocked Trump from revoking Harvard&#8217;s ability to enroll foreign students, CBS News <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-administration-harvard-foreign-students-judge-ruling/#">reported</a>.
Last month, Trump suggested that Harvard cap its foreign student enrollment at 15% of the student body, which would be a drop from the nearly 30% of the student body represented by international students. He added that he wants Harvard to &#8220;show us their lists,&#8221; so that the Trump administration can &#8220;make sure that the foreign students are people that can love our country.&#8221;
&#8220;We don&#8217;t want to see shopping centers exploding. We don&#8217;t want to see the kind of riots that you had,&#8221; Trump said.
The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/new-state-dept-measures-unveiled-how-foreign-students-will-be-screened-for-u-s-entry">reported</a> that the State Department unveiled new measures for screening foreign students on Wednesday, including searching the social media accounts of students for “any indications of hostility towards the citizens, culture, government, institutions or founding principles of the United States,” “advocacy for, aid or support for foreign terrorists and other threats to U.S. national security,” and “support for unlawful antisemitic harassment or violence.”
“Every visa adjudication is a national security decision,” the State Department said. “The United States must be vigilant during the visa issuance process to ensure that those applying for admission into the United States do not intend to harm Americans and our national interests, and that all applicants credibly establish their eligibility for the visa sought, including that they intend to engage in activities consistent with the terms for their admission.”

Federal agents used flash bangs, rubber bullets, and tear gas to disperse masked rioters attacking an Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland, Oregon, Wednesday night.
The rioters had ignored multiple orders to disperse before Border Patrol Tactical Unit agents forcibly cleared them out, according to video from Turning Point USA&#8217;s Frontlines.

Agents on the roof fired rubber bullets to disperse the crowd while agents on the ground moved in to break up and arrest the rioters.
The violence on Wednesday night was the latest in a series of anti-ICE riots that have raged in Portland for a week and a half.

Looking back on it, one of the most important moments from the last election had nothing to do with Donald Trump or Kamala Harris. In fact it had nothing to do with this country at all. It was the unilateral decision by the president of El Salvador to transform his country, virtually overnight, from a gang-controlled failed state into one of the safest places on the planet. This wasn&#8217;t an empty campaign promise or a slogan. He actually did it, despite the wailing from various civil liberties groups.
In 2015, El Salvador recorded more than 6,000 homicides.
Throughout all of last year, they recorded just over 100 homicides.
By all accounts, in just a few years, El Salvador managed to solve a crime problem that, according to all the experts, could not be solved.
To everyone living in America&#8217;s rotted-out urban centers, overrun border towns and poor communities in Appalachia, the transformation of El Salvador was meaningful. It wasn&#8217;t your typical foreign news story with no interest to everyday people. It wasn&#8217;t the equivalent of wall-to-wall coverage about the latest developments taking place 7,000 miles away in the Middle East.
What Bukele did to save El Salvador, very clearly, sent the message to every American that the same kind of revival is possible in this country. All of the barriers you hear about are fake. None of the roadblocks are real. Places like Seattle, New York and Los Angeles aren&#8217;t actually beyond saving, no matter how dire things look. All it takes is an executive who&#8217;s willing to punish criminals without any remorse whatsoever. Once a country has an executive like that, things can change. And they can change very quickly.
Less than six months into the second Trump administration, we&#8217;re seeing another illustration of this principle. Throughout the campaign, as you might remember, we were told repeatedly that the unrestricted flow of illegal aliens into this country was a very difficult problem to solve. We were told that, in order to even begin to address the issue, we&#8217;d need to pass a law that would send billions of dollars to federal government agencies and various NGOs. That was the claim every Democrat — and several Republicans — were making. As much as I understand that no human being ever wants to hear the words &#8220;Kamala Harris&#8221; ever again, this was also a big part of her platform. During the debate, it was her &#8220;big idea&#8221; for supposedly fixing the border. If you can bear it, here&#8217;s that moment again:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="008 Harris blames Trump" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KYTupUy4SEs?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Less than a year later, let&#8217;s check in on this whole line of argument. How is the border doing, now that Donald Trump is the president of the United States? Without a multi-billion-dollar &#8220;border bill,&#8221; how much could his administration possibly have accomplished?
As it turns out — even with every federal judge in the country working in tandem to block his agenda, and even without an expensive border bill passed by Congress — the administration has accomplished quite a bit. They&#8217;ve done what we were told was impossible, many times over. The southern border, which until very recently was a completely unsalvageable mess, is now more secure than it&#8217;s been at any time in generations.
Here&#8217;s CBS News, of all places, <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/migrant-crossings-u-s-mexico-border-historically-low-levels/">reporting</a> on the progress:
<blockquote>The number of migrants crossing the U.S. southern border unlawfully continued to be at a historically low level in April, three full months into President Trump&#8217;s aggressive efforts to curtail illegal immigration, according to internal federal data. &#8230; The number of illegal crossings during Mr. Trump&#8217;s first three full months in office represents a seismic change at the U.S.-Mexico border. The apprehensions reported in February, March and April are the lowest tallies recorded by the Border Patrol in its public monthly dataset, which stretches back to fiscal year 2000. The last time Border Patrol averaged fewer than 9,000 monthly apprehensions along the southern border over a year was in the late 1960s, according to historical agency figures.</blockquote>
In other words, according to arrest data stretching back 25 years — which is the extent of the data we have collected — a record-low number of illegal aliens are currently attempting to cross the border. Donald Trump, in his second term, has achieved a more secure border than Bush, Obama, and the first Trump administration did. And he&#8217;s still going. We&#8217;re on pace for the lowest number of illegal aliens being apprehended at the border since the 1960s, at which point the data becomes so imprecise that we have no real way of going further back.
<h3><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/episode/mws-ep-1616?elementPosition=1&amp;row=2&amp;rowHeadline=Latest+Episodes&amp;rowType=Horizontal+Show+Episodes+Carousel">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show</a></h3>
This didn&#8217;t take an act of Congress. It didn&#8217;t take hundreds of billions of dollars. All it took was an executive who authorized federal officers to enforce immigration law, both at the border and throughout the country. Once that happened, the inflow of illegal aliens stopped as quickly as it began.. Here&#8217;s a chart that CBS included in their story, which highlights just how drastic the decline in illegal migration has been:
<div id="attachment_936467" style="width: 1006px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-936467" class="wp-image-936467 size-full" src="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/06/NhuW5Y0-Imgur.png" alt="CBS/U.S. Customs and Border Protection " width="996" height="459" srcset="https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/06/NhuW5Y0-Imgur.png 996w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/06/NhuW5Y0-Imgur-300x138.png 300w, https://dw-wp-production.imgix.net/2025/06/NhuW5Y0-Imgur-768x354.png 768w" sizes="(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px" />CBS/U.S. Customs and Border Protection</div>
You&#8217;ll notice there&#8217;s a massive, unprecedented spike in illegal migration right when Joe Biden takes over. And then, just as quickly, the Trump administration ends it. Look at that drop. It&#8217;s almost unbelievable. It demonstrates that, no, this was not a complicated or difficult issue to solve. And that makes the refusal to solve this problem, by every president until now, seem all the more nefarious.
To be clear, the only reason we&#8217;re seeing these reductions in apprehensions at the border is because the illegal aliens have gotten the message that the Trump administration is serious about immigration enforcement. Therefore they&#8217;ve stopped trying to enter this country. They understand that, when they&#8217;re caught, they won&#8217;t be allowed into the United States anymore, which is what the Biden administration did in virtually every case.
The New York Post just <a href="https://nypost.com/2025/06/17/us-news/border-agents-didnt-release-a-single-illegal-migrant-into-the-us-last-month-border-patrol/">obtained data</a> demonstrating just how common &#8220;catch and release&#8221; used to be, under the previous administration. These are some of the more extraordinary figures you&#8217;ll ever hear.
<blockquote>Border Patrol agents didn’t release a single migrant into the US last month — a staggering drop after the Biden administration allowed 62,000 illegal crossers in the country in May 2024. &#8230; Agents caught 8,725 migrants crossing illegally at the southern border last month. That’s a 93% decrease from May 2024, when 117,905 were nabbed. &#8230; One of the most monumental policy changes made by Trump was the reversal of President Joe Biden’s catch-and-release scheme, which resulted in millions of illegal border jumpers being allowed into the US.</blockquote>
To restate, in May of 2024, the Biden administration deliberately allowed 62,000 illegal aliens into the country. That&#8217;s 62,000 illegal aliens in just one month, meaning they were on pace to allow more illegal aliens into this country in one year than the entire population of San Francisco. By contrast, this past May, the Trump administration did not deliberately allow a single detained illegal immigrant into this country. They took the number from 62,000 all the way to zero, which of course is what the number should&#8217;ve been all along. There is no reason whatsoever to allow a criminal alien to enter the country, because once you do that, you&#8217;ll never see them again — at least, not until they commit some heinous act of violence against an American citizen. Of course, the Biden administration knew that. That&#8217;s why they did it. And now that policy is over, so we&#8217;re seeing immediate results.
This is obviously a major victory, on par with what Bukele did in El Salvador. But it&#8217;s not a total victory, even though the numbers make it look like one. That&#8217;s because, as we&#8217;ve discussed previously, illegal immigration isn&#8217;t the only immigration problem we have. Like other countries, including Canada, we&#8217;ve given legal status to a large number of foreign nationals who despise this country. Which means even legal immigration is a problem that needs to be fixed. In fact, legal immigration needs to be shut down entirely, at least for now.
More than pretty much anyone else, Ilhan Omar is a walking justification for this policy. As if to prove my point, Omar recently announced that America — the country that rescued her from life of certain poverty, despair and ultimately death in Somalia — is actually one of the worst countries on the planet. This is a woman who, because of the generosity of the United States and its immigration policy, is now a sitting member of Congress, living a life that&#8217;s unimaginable to many Americans, to say nothing of virtually everyone living in Somalia. But here she is, announcing that actually, America is just about as bad as where she came from:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="010 Somalia" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/0WEgGyZhMlU?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
She&#8217;s willing to say, as part of her sob story, that she lived under a brutal dictatorship in Somalia. But she conveniently leaves out the fact that her father was a colonel in that dictator&#8217;s army. This is a regime that committed genocide and various human rights abuses as part of a communist-Islamist agenda. But Ilhan Omar forgot to mention any of that. And it&#8217;s an interesting omission, to say the least. It&#8217;s the kind of thing that might make you suspect that Ilhan Omar is an inherently dishonest person, and her whole family — and many other &#8220;refugees&#8221; like her — should never have been granted legal status in the first place.
And that&#8217;s not the only deception that&#8217;s evident in that interview. Notice what she&#8217;s doing there. She says that &#8220;this should be a wakeup call&#8221; for all Americans to feel a variety of patriotic sentiments about &#8220;the country we were born in&#8221; and the &#8220;founding fathers.&#8221; She&#8217;s trying to use American values against Americans. But she doesn&#8217;t actually share any of these values. Pretty much every time this woman opens her mouth, she&#8217;s attacking America, praising Somalia, and vowing to work on behalf of Somali interests from within the United States.
We&#8217;ve played the clips many times before. There hasn&#8217;t been a single moment in her political career where she&#8217;s expressed an ounce of pride in this country. And she certainly has never praised &#8220;the founding fathers,&#8221; who she regards as white supremacists whose statues should be torn down, and whose memories should be erased from history forever. But now, suddenly, she&#8217;s pretending to invoke the &#8220;founding fathers&#8221; to appeal to her constituents.
And again, she&#8217;s been given legal status to come to this country and say all of this. She&#8217;s now a naturalized citizen. And through it all, she keeps talking about Somalia. In fact she seems to want to go back there. This is a rough translation that&#8217;s <a href="https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/1753402969406451930">making the rounds</a> from a trip that Omar reportedly took to Somalia back in 2022. We&#8217;ll only play a small bit of the clip because it&#8217;s not in English. Watch:
<iframe loading="lazy" title="011 build up Somalia" width="500" height="281" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZXkF6zMrkYg?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen></iframe>
According to the translation in the subtitles, she says, &#8220;I am a Somali girl… a young child taken from her country that misses her country and wishes to live there.”
You can dispute whether Ilhan Omar obtained her citizenship lawfully, and whether she&#8217;s subject to deportation on those grounds. But it really doesn&#8217;t matter. Very obviously, based on what she&#8217;s saying publicly, it&#8217;s clear that Ilhan Omar should not have been allowed into this country for any reason. She certainly should not have been made a citizen. She doesn&#8217;t offer anything to this country. And she never has. She is a shining example for why legal immigration needs to be drastically curtailed, now that the border is relatively secure.
Washington congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is yet another example. She came to this country from India as a teenager. And by her own admission, at no point did she have any interest in improving America for Americans. Instead, she immediately got to work opening the floodgates for the rest of the third-world to come here. Here&#8217;s what she <a href="https://x.com/PramilaJayapal/status/1934354981399798075">just wrote</a> on social media.
<blockquote>I came to this country when I was 16. I worked in immigration justice for 20 years before setting foot in Congress. I’ve spent my entire life defending immigrants – and I’m not backing down.</blockquote>
In other words, by allowing Pramila Jayapal to become a citizen, we didn&#8217;t get someone who was committed to a life of hard work that would improve the lives of American citizens in any way. She didn&#8217;t have any interest in contributing to her local community, or performing services for American citizens. Instead, she began working immediately on behalf of foreign nationals.
This is a self-perpetuating problem. It&#8217;s a death spiral. The more immigrants we allow into this country — even &#8220;legal&#8221; ones — the more immigrants we get. By and large, these people are not vetted. They openly despise this country from the second they arrive. And after they&#8217;ve used our resources for their benefit, their hatred doesn&#8217;t change. Instead, they work even harder to allow more of their countrymen into the United States, so that they, too, can reap the rewards. This system simply cannot last forever. It&#8217;s not simply immoral. It&#8217;s unsustainable. It only works as long as there are rewards to dish out. Once that happens — and this moment is rapidly approaching — the social safety net collapses for everyone, along with our economy.
The only way to prevent that outcome is for the Trump administration to follow-up on its success with illegal aliens by sharply reducing the number of lawful migrants into this country.
Democrats will claim it&#8217;s heartless to turn our back on &#8220;refugees&#8221; and so on. But all you really need to do is listen to most of these &#8220;refugees&#8221; and lawful immigrants speak for a few minutes, and you&#8217;ll see what&#8217;s necessary. They don&#8217;t typically sound like South Africans, who are grateful to be here. Instead they often sound like Ilhan Omar and Pramila Jayapal. They tell us how awful the United States is, and how desperately they want to return to Somalia. And at this point, as decisively as Donald Trump closed the southern border, we have no choice but to give these loathsome, anti-American foreign operatives exactly what they&#8217;re asking for.

The commission was first established back in May by an <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/05/establishment-of-the-religious-liberty-commission/">executive order</a> from President Trump. The executive order commissioned a panel of professionals and public religious figures under the Department of Justice and Attorney General Pamela Bondi, who spoke at this first meeting.
Some notable <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/2025/05/president-trump-announces-religious-liberty-commission-members/">members of the commission</a> include Catholic Bishop Robert Barron, the founder of Word on Fire Ministry, and Pastor Paula White, the senior advisor to the White House Faith Office. Pastor Franklin Graham, a well-known Evangelical minister, Dr. Phil McGraw, host of the &#8220;Dr. Phil&#8221; talk show, and Rabbi Dr. Meir Soloveichik, a premier Orthodox rabbi based in Manhattan, also serve on the commission.
The commission will run until July 4th, 2026, unless extended by Trump. Over the next year, the commission will meet periodically to hear the testimonies of prominent legal scholars and religious leaders.
Patrick began the meeting by restating the commission&#8217;s purpose, as laid out in its charter. The purpose, he said, was &#8220;to advise and to report to the president&#8221; their findings on the treatment of religion in America.
Carson, who has previously served as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development during the first Trump administration, stated that the commission&#8217;s goal is to promote spirituality among Americans.
&#8220;This commission promotes freedom of beliefs and that spiritual aspect of our existence that advances civilization,&#8221; Carson said. &#8220;We will strive to facilitate the maintenance of one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.&#8221;
Kelly Shackelford, a constitutional scholar and member of the commission, remarked that, as the Founders of America believed, the first battle against dictatorial power would be fought on the grounds of religious freedom. Religious freedom, he said, is the &#8220;precipice of all of our freedoms.&#8221;
Paula White, a member of the commission, leads the first White House Faith Office for the president. White commented, &#8220;The Commission will focus on long-term strategies to secure religious freedom for future generations. We will gather data, conduct legal analysis, hold public hearings to capture the stories of everyday Americans related to religious liberty.&#8221;
Later in the meeting, Attorney General Pam Bondi commented on the Trump administration’s stance toward religious liberty.
&#8220;From the start, the United States of America was envisioned as a place where religious liberty meant the freedom to discern good from evil without the heavy hand of the government weighing in,&#8221; she said.
Bondi condemned the arrests of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/pro-life-activist-sentenced-to-over-four-years-in-prison-over-protest-at-d-c-abortion-facility">pro-life Christians</a>, those who <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYK1XPKdV7M">blocked access to synagogues</a> in antisemitic protests, the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/bill-de-blasio-threatens-to-permanently-close-nyc-churches-if-they-dont-comply-with-social-distancing">prosecution</a> of church gatherings during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Biden administration’s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/biden-declares-easter-sunday-transgender-day-of-visibility">declaration</a> of a transgender day of visibility on Easter in 2024, as well as other anti-religious acts.
Bondi added, &#8220;This president and this administration are fully committed to restoring and defending religious liberty for all Americans. The Religious Liberty Commission will be the tip of the spear. Together we will return America to the vision of our Founders – a nation where faith merely isn’t tolerated but it&#8217;s embraced and celebrated.&#8221;
