Today’s Big Story…

The Trump administration has ordered ICE to scale back raids in agriculture, hospitality, and restaurant sectors, according to an internal memo and White House officials.

The move reflects concerns that mass deportations are damaging key industries and voter bases. The new guidance followed protests in Los Angeles over immigration raids and came after Trump acknowledged the crackdown was harming farmers and hospitality businesses. ICE official Tatum King issued the directive to leaders of Homeland Security Investigations.

“Effective today, please hold on all work site enforcement investigations/operations on agriculture (including aquaculture and meat packing plants), restaurants and operating hotels,” King wrote in the memo sent out to agency personnel.

The email stated that agents could investigate crimes like human trafficking and drug smuggling, but were not to arrest illegal aliens without criminal records. DHS confirmed the policy, with spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin saying they would focus on removing only "the worst of the worst" criminal illegal aliens.

Another Big Story…

President Trump confirmed the U.S. is not currently involved in Israel’s military strikes but added, “It’s possible we could get involved."

In an interview with ABC’s Rachel Scott, Trump commented on a deadline for Iran to come to the negotiating table: “No, there’s no deadline. But they are talking. They’d like to make a deal. They’re talking. They continue to talk. Something like this had to happen because I think even from both sides, but something like this had to happen. They want to talk, and they will be talking.”

This also comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with Fox News’ Bret Baier, his first interview since Israel's strikes on Iran. Netanyahu claimed Iran's regime viewed President Trump as a threat to its nuclear program and had tried to assassinate him in Butler, Pennsylvania, last July.

“They want to kill him. He’s enemy number one. He’s a decisive leader. He never took the path that others took to try to bargain with them in a way that is weak, giving them basically a pathway to enrich uranium, which means a pathway to the bomb, padding it with billions and billions of dollars,” said Netanyahu. “He took up this fake agreement and basically tore it up. He killed Qasem Soleimani. He made it very clear, including now, ‘You cannot have a nuclear weapon, which means you cannot enrich uranium.’ He’s been very forceful, so for them, he’s enemy number one.”

The Administration…

1. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins defended her effort to exempt farmers, meatpackers, and restaurant employers from immigration laws. According to The New York Times, she convinced President Trump to shield these sectors from his deportation agenda.

2. President Trump reportedly vetoed an Israeli plan to assassinate Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei, according to two U.S. officials. One senior official said, “Until Americans are killed, we’re not considering targeting Iran’s leadership.”

3. President Trump announced a draft trade deal with China that includes allowing more Chinese graduates into U.S. jobs, sparking backlash from supporters. The deal, pending final approval with President Xi, includes rare-earth mineral exports from China in exchange for access to U.S. universities for Chinese students.

4. President Trump also approved the U.S. Steel–Nippon Steel merger via executive order under a National Security Agreement. The deal includes over $11 billion in U.S. investments by 2028, more than 100,000 new jobs, and grants the U.S. a "golden share" that ensures commitments to governance, domestic production, and trade.

5. The Trump administration is using past unrest to justify a broad crackdown on anti-immigration raids and protests in major cities. Despite pushback from Democratic leaders, the Justice Department is ramping up prosecutions with backing from the National Guard and Marines.

6. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced new Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) guidelines aimed at reducing regulatory burdens and focusing on threats to U.S. national interests. The revised policy narrows investigations to target cartels and transnational criminal groups.

7. After Iran shut down internet access following Israeli strikes, Elon Musk confirmed he activated Starlink to restore online access and help Iranians stay informed and connected.

8. Musk is also urging NASA to decommission the ISS by 2027 after ex-NASA engineer Casey Handmer revealed serious, undisclosed structural issues. Musk said the aging 26-year-old station should be retired.

9. The Trump administration won a court case allowing major layoffs at the Institute of Education Sciences, a research arm of the Department of Education. A Maryland federal court declined to block the cuts.

10. President Trump received a special birthday gift after closing the military parade celebrating the Army’s 250th anniversary, Flag Day, and his 79th birthday. In his remarks, he praised the Army as the world’s “greatest, fiercest, and bravest” force. The Army later presented him with a flag flown that day.

11. Trump also led a swearing-in ceremony for new and re-enlisting soldiers during the parade. While such ceremonies are usually led by officers, Trump, as Commander in Chief, conducted it himself.

12. The U.S. Army announced it surpassed its 2025 recruiting goals four months early, marking a possible turnaround after years of shortfalls. Over 61,000 contracts have been signed—more than 10% above the 2024 target—and daily recruiting rates are up to 56% higher than the same period last year.

13. A viral video features Brian Taef, an Iranian immigrant, veteran, and CEO of US Millennials, Inc., defending his pro-Trump views after being confronted at a Texas gym over his "Re-elect Trump 2020" shirt. Taef told the man, who claimed the shirt might offend immigrants, that he himself is an immigrant who supports Trump and the National Guard’s deployment.

Vice President…

JD Vance’s wedding anniversary with Second Lady Usha Vance fell on the same day as President Trump’s birthday and Flag Day, the 250th anniversary of the Army. Vance closed his speech at the military parade over the weekend by noting it was also his wedding anniversary, joking he would make his wife angry if he did not acknowledge it.
