Episode Details

Today’s Headlines: Tensions over Trump’s immigration crackdown escalated as he floated the idea of arresting California Governor Gavin Newsom, who dared ICE border czar Tom Homan to “go ahead, tough guy, arrest me.” In response, Newsom and AG Rob Bonta sued Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth for unlawfully federalizing the state’s National Guard. Meanwhile, Glendale ended its ICE detention contract, a federal judge blocked enforcement of Trump’s anti-DEI executive orders (for now), and DC began prepping for Trump’s birthday military parade, complete with tanks and 7,000 troops. Also, a cyberattack hit Whole Foods’ main distributor, potentially disrupting food supplies to over 30,000 stores.
