ICE memo outlines plan to deport migrants to countries where they are not citizens

Washington Post12 hours ago
Federal immigration officers may deport immigrants with as little as six hours notice to countries other than their own even if officials have not provided any assurances that the new arrivals will be safe from persecution or torture, a top official said in a memo this week.
Todd M. Lyons, the acting director of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, wrote in a memo to the ICE workforce Wednesday that a Supreme Court ruling last month had cleared the way for officers to 'immediately' start sending immigrants to 'alternative' countries.

UFC White House event to take place on the South Lawn

When President Donald Trump made the announcement that the White House grounds would host a UFC event next year, little details were given. Speaking at an event at the Iowa State Fairgrounds earlier this month, Trump said, "Every one of our national parks, battlefields and historic sites are going to have special events in honor of America 250, and I even think we're going to have a UFC fight." Advertisement "We're going to have a UFC fight, think of this, on the grounds of the White House. We have a lot of land here. We're going to build a little, we're not, Dana's [White] going to do it. Dana's great. One of a kind," continued Trump. The Trump administration isn't just planning to host a UFC event at the White House, the President expects the fight card to feature at least one world title bout. "We're going to have a UFC fight, championship fight, full fight, like 20-25,000 people. And we're going to do that as part of 250 also. We're going to have some incredible events, some professional events, some amateur events. But the UFC fight is going to be a big deal, too," Trump said. On Saturday, during the UFC Nashville Post-Fight Press Conference, UFC CEO Dana White provided more details. Advertisement "Everyone wants to be on this card," White said. "The fight is a year away, so the landscape will change a lot over the next year." "It'll be a pay-per-view card," he continued. "The best card we can possibly put together."

The UFC, in conjunction with White House staff, have begun formulating the logistics. 'We're going to be on the South Lawn and literally when you're watching the fight it will be all the White House here and behind me will be the Washington Monument," White said. Advertisement "We're just getting into the logistics right now. My team has already walked the White House with the staff there. Now we're putting together the design and then we'll all fly out to D.C. and sit down with him (Trump) and see what he wants to do."

One year after Trump assassination attempt, changes at Secret Service but questions remain

WASHINGTON — In many ways, the assassination attempt against Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania campaign stop was a perfect storm of failings coming together that allowed 20-year-old Michael Thomas Crooks to climb on top of a nearby building and take eight shots at the once and future president. One attendee was killed, two others wounded and a bullet grazed Trump's ear before a Secret Service counter sniper opened fire on Crooks and killed him. That day jolted an already chaotic race for the White House and solidified Trump's iconic status in his party and beyond.
