BREAKING: Today, President Trump directed FEMA and EPA to provide emergency assistance to the District of Columbia as they work to protect people from the effects of the recent spill in the Potomac. EPA Lee Zeldin and I will stay in close contact to ensure coordinated federal support to the District.
 
FEMA is deploying a team to support incident management, working directly with local officials and federal partners to coordinate federal resources. EPA will lead the federal response while DHS and FEMA leverage all our resources to ensure the cleanup is swift and effective.

Even as Democrat politicians shut us down and these men and women go without pay, DHS is committed to providing much needed aid to the Americans impacted by this disaster. We will not let our citizens suffer without help.

The community is rallying around an Orleans Parish sheriff's deputy injured in a motorcycle accident while performing a police escort in the line of duty.

Deputy Bennie Collura was performing a motorcycle escort while on duty on Feb. 5 when he was involved in an accident that left him severely injured.

"He's going to be off his feet for the next few months," said Sgt. Jamil Champagne, with OPSO. "Unfortunately, the type of injury he has, he's going to be bedridden for a while. So he needs all of our prayers and support."

It unfolded the same day as the funeral for Jefferson Parish Deputy Chris Ohlmeyer, who was killed after being hit on his motorcycle while working a funeral procession.

Both accidents are a stark reminder of the dangers on the road.

"Know that we share the road with motorists, with bicycle people and just to slow down and make sure that you're safe," said Champagne.

Collura has been with the OPSO for roughly 15 years, working as a detective, motorcycle sergeant and K9 officer.

Please join us in lifting him and his family up in prayer, asking for strength, healing, and a full and swift recovery.🙏🏻

ICYMI: A member of the LAPD SWAT team learned the hard way just how much pressure comes out of a fire hose.

A burglar barricaded himself inside a home, and it caught fire after SWAT attempted to flush him out with tear gas.

They eventually got him out, but you know the guy with the hose will never hear the end of this.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the Line of Duty Death of Retired Fire Captain William “Luto” Lutostanski Jr. on February 17, 2026, following a courageous, three-year battle with work-related cancer.

“Luto” proudly served the Baltimore County Fire Department for 26 years, dedicating his life to protecting the residents of Baltimore County. Hired on February 15, 1999 as an EMT/Firefighter in the 78th Recruit Class, he rose through the suppression ranks with honor and distinction serving as Fire Specialist, Fire Lieutenant, and ultimately Fire Captain. He retired on February 5, 2026, concluding more than two decades of exemplary public service.

Throughout his career, “Luto” served in multiple operational assignments across the County, including long tenures at Truck 8 in Fullerton, Engine 2 in Pikesville, Engine 16, and Engine 3 in Woodlawn, where he finished his career. His leadership, professionalism, and commitment to the job left a lasting impact on every company he served and every firefighter who had the privilege to work alongside him.

Captain Lutostanski’s courage was exemplified on January 19, 2011, during a second-floor apartment fire. Amid heavy smoke and rapidly deteriorating conditions, he and fellow firefighters located an unconscious civilian and began her removal. When the room flashed over, Captain Lutostanski shielded the victim with his own body, laying over her as fire rolled overhead - placing her life above his own. This act of selfless heroism reflects exactly who he was as a firefighter and as a man.

Beyond the job, “Luto” was a devoted husband, father, brother, and friend. He is loved by more than he knew, and his legacy will endure in the lives he saved, the firefighters he mentored, and the standard of service he embodied.

Rest Easy Brother. Prayers for his family of red and blood.🙏🏻

⚠️This weekend, another significant winter storm is forecast to impact the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast U.S. Sunday through Monday.

New Jersey to southeastern New England may experience blizzard conditions, with heavy snowfall and strong winds. We are anticipating that coastal areas will experience the highest impacts, with the greatest snowfall totals and strongest wind gusts anticipated.

Despite the Democrat shutdown, DHS is working with state and local authorities, and FEMA to coordinate closely with state and local authorities and prepare for this storm.
 
We ask that you stay home, stay safe, stay warm, and stay off the roads to avoid these adverse weather conditions. For readiness resources, please visit http://ready.gov

NEW: New York City is requiring multiple forms of ID for anyone who would like to register to be a paid emergency snow shoveler ahead of this weekend’s winter storm.

This, as some Dems say requiring ID to vote is akin to “Jim Crow 2.0”.

Today, we remember Officer Ricardo Lizarraga, who was killed on February 20, 2004 while investigating a domestic disturbance in the Leimert Park area of Los Angeles.

He and his partner were flagged down by a woman while on patrol. The woman informed the two officers she was having problems with a friend and wanted him removed from her home. As the officers approached the man to search him, he pulled out a handgun and opened fire, striking Officer Lizarraga in the abdomen, below his vest. Officer Lizarraga’s partner returned fire as the suspect fled the scene.

Officer Lizarraga was transported to a local hospital where he died from his wounds approximately 2 hours later. The suspect was arrested about 3 hours after the shooting during a large manhunt.

Officer Lizarraga joined the LAPD on September 25, 2001 and graduated from the Los Angeles Police Academy in April 2002. He worked patrol assignments in the 77th Street Area and one year later transferred to the Newton Area. He chose Newton because there he could use his fluent Spanish in the community. He felt it was a great privilege to be working a Z-Car Unit.

Officer Lizarraga had served with the Los Angeles Police Department for 2.5 years. He is survived by his wife, parents, brother, and two sisters.

We will never forget you sir💙
